Reviews
The fried feta is a must. The pizza options all sound so good! I was happy with my choice but it was a hard one to make.
It was my first dining experience in Chatham, so I booked a reservation online. I didn’t realise booking the reservation would be so handy. The place was fully booked at 5pm! From the moment we walked in you could feel the warmth of the place (literally and figuratively – it was freezing outside). We were greeted by Gia who was extremely welcoming and very accommodating.
We were sat at the bar (really great vantage point of the kitchen/hustle and bustle) and we were able to speak to the staff and watch how they communicate with each other and other guests at the bar. This is where we met Rylan. He was sweet, respectful, engaging, attentive, and very social. It was refreshing to see the way he worked. Everything he did was done with so much care and attention. He made my mom a hibiscus margarita (delicious) and an Aperol spritz for me (also delicious).
We were a bit torn about what to order as there were so many great options but with the help of Gia and Rylan, we settled on a beet salad and a Margherita pizza to share. I was hesitant with the salad because I am not a huge fan of Gorgonzola cheese but I gave it a go. Let me tell you that this was the most delicious salad with everything that was in it: the pickled onions, candied cashews, green apple, roasted carrot, among others was extremely yummy. I would definitely recommend this dish and the serving was quite large.
It seemed like the place would be known for the pizza so we opted for Margherita. I loved that when it came out it wasn’t a perfect round shape. A nice artisan looking pizza! I also loved the size of the plate that it came on. I’ve tried a lot of pizzas and this one was unique because I could taste (what felt like) the garlic slices in the sauce. We finished it entirely, but as far as the dough and sauce, this wasn’t my favourite.
Lastly, I kept hearing them talk about the cheesecake so I wanted to try it but my mom also wanted to try the brownie but we only ended up ordering one. I went to the washroom to return and they had brought us both!! The cheesecake with a sparkler because I was there to celebrate my birthday. The brownie was delicious! The cheesecake was good too!
Overall, the staff were such a pleasure to interact with and the atmosphere/vibes were so good. As we sat by the entrance more and more guests were coming in to dine. If there was no one at the front or if they were on the phone, Rylan would stick his head out to greet them and kindly tell them someone would be right with them. That level of service to me is rare these days. It is so important to make your guests feel welcome and this restaurant does it very, very well. You can see the amount of care each and every team member takes to help out where necessary.
The decor as well was super quirky, yet elegant and warm. Everywhere you looked was something more interesting than the last. It was really well well decorated, maintained and clean! All the plates and glasses were so darn cute and unique too. There are some cute areas within the place and intimate tables for celebrations. If I lived in Chatham, I would definitely celebrate (another) birthday here. I have already talked about this place with a few friends in the GTA and cannot wait to come back. Thank you to the team for making it a memorable experience and for the shot and brownie dessert on the house!
The food is incredible. We’ve tried most of the pizzas, the chicken sandwich, salmon, the Brussels sprouts, and honestly you can’t go wrong. Everything is so flavourful.
Every server we’ve had has been great. We always know we’re going to be taken care of, and the consistency means so much.
Not to mention the cocktails are delicious. You definitely get what you pay for.
Such an awesome spot. We love it so much and truly hope it’s around forever!!
The staff were warm, friendly, and made us feel genuinely welcome. The food? Incredible. Every dish was fresh, flavourful, and beautifully prepared. It’s clear that quality and care go into everything they serve.
Whether you’re celebrating something special or just looking for a great meal out, I 100% recommend this place. We’ll definitely be back!
Absolutely outstanding on every level! My husband and I recently dined at Centro while visiting family over the Christmas time frame, and we are so happy we did! Our delicious meal and appetizer was a 12/10. The food was exceptional…fresh, flavorful, beautifully presented and clearly made with care. Each dish met our expectations and left us wanting to try everything else on the menu.
The service was just as impressive. Gia greeted us at the door and although we didn’t have a reservation on a totally booked evening, she kindly sat us in a pretty waiting area until a table opened up (the wait wasn’t long) She was kind, warm and very professional. She was also welcoming, attentive and genuinely made us feel valued from the moment we walked in. Every detail of our evening was handled perfectly, creating a warm and enjoyable dining experience.Shane was our server and we can’t say enough great things about him! Exceptional knowledge of the menu offerings, wine list, cocktails and more. He was professional, conversant, so nice and gave us 5 star service from beginning to end.
Suffice to say, from the fabulous food to the superior service to the overall atmosphere, this place truly delivers excellence. We will definitely be back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a top-tier dining experience! Denise and Nick Olivastri ♥️
The cuisine was exceptional, refined, thoughtfully composed, and beautifully balanced. The pizza deserves special mention: a flawless ratio of sauce, cheese, and dough, resulting in a crust that was both light and deeply satisfying. Even our toddler thoroughly enjoyed the pizza and souvlaki, a testament to the quality and approachability of the food.
The ambiance is sophisticated yet inviting, striking the perfect balance between elegance and comfort. An intriguing cocktail program pairs beautifully with a well curated wine list, rounding out an experience where every detail feels intentional.
For a restaurant in a smaller market, Centro is truly remarkable. This location deserves accolades alongside any large city dining experience. Exceptional food, polished service, and hospitality that is both personal and world class.
