    Everything was amazing. This is our third time at Central kitchen and it never disappoints. Our service was incredible(Myka) as well as the food. The Feta wings are amazing and we get every time, along with sharing the fries and Smash Burger. Highly recommend Central kitchen when Downtown Motown

    This restaurant was nice, it's in a good location despite the construction. The staff was friendly and the menu was cool. The wine was cold and refreshing we selected a house Moscato. I would visit this restaurant again!

    Great food and service. A little hard to find with roads closed around. Very crowded and noisy.

    Good ambiance; the two entrees we ordered (scallops and bolognese) were very rich for our liking; caesar salad was very good; there is no kids menu, so not a great option unless you’re okay spending $20+ on meals for kids under 10. Lastly, our server never checked on us after we got our food, which capped off a mediocre dining experience.

    Our food was really good. Some of the sides arrived as appetizers instead of sides with dinner which was disappointing. Our server did a good job but she had too many tables all at the same point which made service less than stellar.

    Angie was a great server! Very attentive and made great recommendations. The DJ provided a nice vibe during brunch to top it off. I’ll definitely be back.
