| - Cento blew me away when I came here for my first dinner, and I knew I wanted to share my experience with my boyfriend for Valentine's Day. I made a wonderful decision because not only did we have a wonderful time, but we had even more delicious food.
Absolutely amazing prince Edward island mussels for our appetizer; I've been back again since valentines day, and I've ordered them again. Consistent, very (but not excessively) garlic flavored broth that pairs perfectly with the mussels. For my entree, I had the casserecce with braised lamb (no dairy), and my boyfriend had the carbonara. My plate was just lamb perfection; the noodles were delicious with a deep and rich lamb note with every bite. If I can eat this every day, I would. For the pastas, cento offers two sizes. My boyfriend finished the larger size, no problem. I also ordered the larger size, but it was too much food so I packaged the rest. So perhaps consider the smaller if you ate an appetizer or if you're not too hungry.
Service is always incredible. Servers are always willing to confirm ingredients in the dishes, and they check on the table so consistently and pretty often. They remember faces and always make you feel welcome, which is something I really appreciate from any restaurant.
Dining room is beautiful, drinks are always amazing (if you'd like a suggestion, try the vermouth!), and suggestions and knowledge of wine is incomparable. Cento is my go to for a fun and sophisticated night out. The three times I've been here have consistently been such a pleasure to experience. I always look forward to coming back!
