Nice selection of alcohol choices, starters, main dishes, and dessert.
Started with fish tacos, then did ribeye steak and potatoe cake with salad. Finished with chocolate torte and excellent coffee.
Came down from Richmond for a meeting and decided to go to the restaurant. Glad we did.
Matthew greeted Rusty and I cheerfully, with a plate in hand, the amuse’ bouche. This small offering of a crispy fried wonton topped with a flavorful Asian-inspired melange of diced tomatoes, black olives, and red onions in a refreshing vinegar dressing is meant to “amuse the mouth.” Matthew painted such an inviting picture with his description of the dinner specials that my husband and I ordered them. After we finished our amuse’ bouche, Matthew brought us a heaping plate of fresh out of the oven dinner rolls with some fancy whipped butter in a small ramekin, which made us feel relaxed.
What’s a date night dinner without an appetizer? Short! There was no way that my husband and I were going to pass up on the opportunity to try one of Center Street Grill’s most famous fusion dishes, the Philly Cheesesteak Egg Rolls. Enrobed with crispy egg roll wrappers you’ll find American cheese, shaved Ribeye steak, and sauteed white onions, accompanied by a side of creamy scallion cheese dipping sauce. This appetizer was a robust, crunchy, creamy delight!
My husband’s ribeye steak was grilled perfectly to his preference, medium rare, topped with a tornado of crispy fried onions, and paired with a heaping serving of fluffy mashed potatoes and grilled fresh asparagus. My husband’s mouth watered with each and every tempting bite of his ribeye steak, and I’ve never seen him so happy to have a plate in front of him. My crab cake entree featured two all jumbo lump meat crab cakes, garnished with a slightly spicy remoulade, and teamed up with herb roasted potatoes and garden fresh asparagus. The crab cakes were an unparalleled coastal delicacy, with each bite sending my taste buds on a blissful vacation. The herb roasted potatoes ruined me for all other forms of crispy potatoes in the future.
To really lean into that vacation vibe, my husband and I decided to go with the key lime pie. Oh, what a tropical way to end our meal! Crunchy, cinnamony graham cracker crust, overflowing with key lime custard, garnished with a fresh lime slice, powdered sugar, and house whipped cream. Each bite was an explosion of sweet, vibrant key lime flavor, from real key limes from Florida, and not some juice bought at the store. So, you’re probably thinking, the food was clearly spectacular, so what about the service? Matthew checked on us at all the right times, and felt 100% available to us while still giving us plenty of privacy to spend our evening together. His upbeat, witty, and engaging personality, with the fantastic food, created a memory for us that we still talk about and remember fondly.
We had the Philly Egg Rolls as an appetizer & they were very very good.
I had the Cordon Blu and it’s the best Cordon Blu I’ve ever had! (Don’t tell my mom) The green beans it comes with I usually don’t like BUT these were so flavorful! I ate them all. My plate was so clean they really didn’t need to wash it……
Hubby had the Pecan crusted Pork Chop which was also delicious. Had the Vanilla Crème Brûlée for dessert and that was also good. We will definitely be back. I have got to have that Cordon Blu again!!
