I've eaten at Centro many times and always had decent service ... but the last time I went with a coworker for lunch, it was ridiculous. We waited 45 minutes for a table (understandable in lunch rush), then waited for the server ... then put our orders in right away. We ordered pizza and salads — very simple. But our waitress never came back. We couldn't find her and waited almost an hour before she even walked by again. We asked about our food and she seemed surprised. So we asked for it to go — she forgot the salads and the pizza was cold. When we finally got our salads, they weren't even the right ones. By now we were late for work and had to settle for cold pizza and whatever salad she grabbed — for full price.

They have this piano guy that plays on certain days. Would definitely recommend going when he is there. Creates a wonderful ambience.

It's certainly better than the overpriced slop they serve at Palmer's Deli. Jason's Deli is better in my opinion. It isn't much of a "Deli" really, it's a sandwich shop. The Mama Mia is their best sandwich by far. The staff seem to be the resident pe ...
