Food: Experimental menu, hit or miss
While the Central Kitchen Burger explodes with flavor and the Penne Pesto Pasta satisfies with its al dente finish, the overall food experience swings wildly between underwhelming to inspired. The hit or miss taste and inconsistent freshness offsets the generally generous portions and broad variety of offerings on the menu.
Great Variety
Extensive selections ensure something for everyone's taste on the menu.
Okay Taste
Standard fare with good and bad dishes, big menu, reasonable prices.
Low Quality
Inconsistent quality and blandness, even if not frozen, impacts experience.

Vibe: Idyllic views, dull drinks
Despite its shortcomings in the food department, Central Kitchen shines in its ambiance. The picturesque view of fountains and courtyard creates a tranquil dining atmosphere further enhanced by live music. However, the experience is slightly undercut by the lackluster drinks menu both in terms of quality and price.
Great Ambiance
Picturesque, tranquil view enhances dining into a beautiful experience.
Bad Drinks
Menu items are overpriced, including potentially the drinks.
Perks: Services vary, outdoor welcomed
Regardless of its hard-to-find location and numerous complaints about parking, the restaurant wins brownie points for its amazing service and extensive dietary options. The available outdoor seating offers a respite, although its pros and cons aren't fully covered. Moreover, potential diners in large groups may want to look elsewhere due to the restaurant's handling of crowd.
Great Service
Friendly staff, quick service repeatedly highlighted in positive experiences.
Okay Outdoor
Outdoor seating is ample, though reviews don't detail setting, comfort fully
Bad For Groups
Cramped seating, long waits, inability to handle big groups highlighted.
