Came here about a month ago and finally catching up on my review. I had an excellent dinner, quick and delicious. I loved the margarita flight along with the appetizers. I can tell this place has a strong neighborhood vibe which is cool. My biggest gripe was children running around (it’s a small space), and the server propping the door open on a freezing night. I still give it a five out of five for food and would for sure come back again!!

Nice little Mexican fusion restaurant in the heart of DT Burien. Smaller restaurant with outdoor seating available. The menu is smaller than most authentic Mexican restaurants that you’ve probably experienced, but that could be a good thing if the options are done right. I was taken back a bit by the price of a single street taco at $7–10. So I opted for their burrito. Decent sized burrito but found it to be mainly rice in a four tortilla. The chips and salsa flight was pretty good and the queso type dip was the best of the three salsas. But I’d still prefer going into a Mexican restaurant and get endless fresh chips and one really good salsa. My wife got the enchiladas and said they were tasty.
On food alone, we thought it was tasty but not something that made us say we’d be back. The presentation was nice, the restaurant itself is clean and nice. Wife and I agreed that this would be a great first date place where you want Mexican, but don’t want to eat a large portion and have food coma. 2 enchiladas, burrito and chips and salsa was little bit over $50. Most likely would pick any of the other nearby Mexican options for food, but this place is a good option for a date.

Showed up at 5:30 PM on a Sunday without a reservation and the place was absolutely slammed – every table full the entire time we were there. We got lucky when a party left just as we arrived. Despite the crowd, service was impressively quick and attentive.
Highlights:
Crispy Brussels sprouts: perfectly roasted, tossed in a creamy garlic aioli with goat cheese and red pepper flakes – one of the best versions I’ve had.
Centro Bowl with pork: generously piled high, fresh ingredients, great flavors.
Clearly a neighborhood favorite for good reason. We’ll definitely be back

A quaint and cultured set-up snuggled between small shops and eateries, this café offers great homemade chips & salsa (that has to be ordered as an appetizer), fresh tortillas used in their dishes and some pretty great tacos. I gave a four on the food only because I thought maybe chips and salsa would at least be free for the first batch. Or come with your meal or something cheesy like that. This might just be the practical person in me; though. Our order consisted of the following tacos: Grilled Lime-Cilantro, Rajas Con Queso, Fish and Carnitas (see picture for description of tacos). The sever was quite attentive and although seating was limited, she never pressured us to leave or rushed us at all. The drinks of course were delicious as well.

We got two outstanding dishes: the Brussels sprouts and the barbacoa nachos (barbacoa is Mexican brisket). They were both soooo good. Both came in healthy portions. We had leftovers.
The Brussels sprouts were super flavorful, fried with Cotija cheese and thick chewy bacon (we added). I little oily.
The barbacoa nachos were simply delish. I loved getting the perfect bite with the barbacoa and guac on the thick chips. So good!

The nachos here are really amazing. The vegan cheese cake is great and a good size for two. The restaurant overall has great Tex-mex food. This was our second visit. The flavors are a little more elevated with vegetables. The waiter was very nice. The location is super cute. There are lots of gluten free and vegan options. However, if you’re looking for authentic Mexican flavors or a romantic setting, this wont be the right fit. It’s very kid friendly and very popular!

Centro Neighborhood Kitchen seriously hit the spot. The fish tacos were super fresh, and the barbacoa and carnitas were packed with flavor. Fried brussel sprouts? Insanely good—crispy and addictive. The cauliflower nachos were a fun twist and totally loaded, and las papas were crispy on the outside, soft on the inside—perfect. Everything felt thoughtful but still super chill. Definitely coming back.

Centro was delicious! We visited on a beautiful Saturday afternoon and had a great late lunch. The variety of salsas and queso was awesome to see, and the chips themselves were tasty too. Our quesadilla was large and stuffed with protein. Service was also fast and congenial throughout. Absolutely would come back.

We really enjoyed the food here and were very happy with how family friendly it was. We’ll definitely be coming back! Everything we tried was delicious, and the nachos were particularly great. The thick house made chips ensured they held up really well and didn’t get soggy, and had some very tasty toppings. The cocktails and margaritas we tried were great too- although could have used more mixing before being delivered to our table. My only annoyance was that all the food arrived around the same time, despite saying we’d like to start with X and Y. Relatively minor in an overall great dining experience.

We had a great experience at this restaurant! The food was absolutely delicious, and the menu had a fantastic variety of options. The service was friendly and attentive, making the overall experience very enjoyable. Although the chicken was slightly burnt, it didn’t take away from how much we enjoyed our meal. We’re already looking forward to coming back and trying more dishes! Highly recommend.
