   The goat cheese salad with beets was excellent. A great dressing. Followed by mussels in an excellent lemony broth. The tarte citron for dessert was good also. Our waiter was so nice and accommodating. Would definitely go back..they also offer a great happy hour.

   Enjoyed in a perfect lunch with a dear friend at a quiet booth in the back so easy for us to catch up. My hangar steak and frites was amazing and the meat cooked just to my liking: medium rare with emphasis on the rare side. Friend indulged on their famous roasted chicken and we both devoured their frites and the delicious baguette of warm bread with melting butter (tempted to order another loaf!). Wonderful luncheon spot that made us feel we were in Paris without jet lag! And kudos to the warm waitstaff! On the way out we saw the big beautiful burger a diner had just ordered and WOW WOW WOW that's what we're going to indulge in next visit.

   Party of 9 for a reunion dinner. Table placement, service was great for the group. Able to catch up over the evening. Variety on the menu for everyone!

   It is great to be back at Le Central and find it so fun and delicious...as always! They kindly sat our foursome at a window table and the service was fun and impeccable. We enjoyed it all- Complete with french phrases for us to recall and use our language skills

   Best French Onion Soup in the city! Great place to meet up and sit at the bar for oysters and champagne.

   Even on a busy Valentine’s Day, we had the best experience for our first visit to Le Central!

   Food and service were excellent. A little too much lighting in the dining room though.

   Karen, Thank you for the great review, we are so glad you enjoyed everything, I'll admit whoever was supposed to dim the lights at the start of the dinner service dropped the ball, it's usually pretty dimly lit. We hope you dine with us again soon.

    I would try something different on the menu if I go back. Over all it was good. My only complaint is the tables are too close together on the bar side. Take out a table or two. It would be more enjoyable to be less likely to hear the conversations at the tables on either side.

    Christine, Thank you for the nice review, aside from Valentine's day when we have so many 2 tops, we have more of the tables set up as 4 tops and we don't seat right next to other people if we can help it, but its tough with so many reservations for 2 on Valentines day, it does get a little crowded. Try us on a regular weekday and there will be a little more privacy. We are glad you enjoyed everything else. We hope you dine with us again soon.
