CENTRO Latin Bistro

We made a 5pm reservation for dinner and were seated as soon as we arrived. The server was friendly and helpful although we were greated by more than 1 it took them a minute to determine who was actually taking care of us. Our meal started with the trio of guacamole. Surprisingly delicious and complex. 100% recommend. I ordered the seafood dried rice. The calamari was incredible tender and my husband had the steak tacos, which he raved about! The restaurant has very high ceiling and as the place filled up, it got loud. Like, it's hard to have a conversation loud. It wouldn't stop us from coming back...we cant wait to check out brunch!

Hola mi Gente 😃🇵🇷Who is hungry? We have gone to there sister restaurant Océano and when we heard about their new location we had to come and check it out 😃 Well let me tell you this place was busy and we did have wait a bit but the wait was worth it, the food was really good and the vibe was too. We got the Flautas, ceviche (has heat) Farmers taco and Roasted Pork over Tostone😋. Everything was so good and we did not try other food because my belly was full but we are going back😂 Really good happy hours and delicious food so check them out.

For fans of Oceano Restaurant, this opening is a welcome addition to the area! Offering a more casual vibe and menu, Centro is perfect for a casual date, girls night out or dinner with family. Their Latin-inspired menu will be fun to explore. We started with drinks: caipirinha, a raspberry pisco sour and canned Tecate. The caipirinha is not on the menu but they were happy to make it. We jumped right into dinner and enjoyed tacos: carnitas and carne asada, which my husband said were done perfectly. We all enjoyed the side of refried beans and rice—the beans were perfectly seasoned and delicious! We are so happy to have this restaurant in the neighborhood! Can’t wait to go back!

What a wonderful find! This restaurant specializes in Latin cuisine, and has some very nice offerings from Peru. The staff is wonderful, friendly, and accommodating. It is conveniently located at Westchester Commons, next to Commonwealth Pediatrics. The dining area is spacious and well organized. My meal was excellent and I highly recommend giving this new restaurant a try. You will not be sorry!

So excited to find a restaurant in the Richmond area with some Peruvian dishes. Richmond sorely needs an authentic Peruvian restaurant! Centro is very nice inside. Seating is a bit hard, especially for older hips and backsides. 😬 Not somewhere we would hang out for a long time and drink Pisco Sours. First, we had to have a Pisco Sour and opted for the passion fruit flavor. Delicious but we didn’t taste much Pisco for the $14 price. The Leche de Tigre Ceviche was flavorful, but the fish was stringy and our dish did not come with the traditional accoutrements (choclo, concha, and sweet potato). It was also a very small portion for $18. Appropriate pricing for the portion would be more like $12. That, or enlarge the portion, which is actually more in line with what you would get at a Peruv
