" Centrolina was a true gem in DC! The ambiance was warm and inviting, perfect for a relaxing evening. Every dish we ordered was simply exquisite, from the homemade pasta to the seafood crudo. Our server was incredibly knowledgeable, guiding us through the menu with such enthusiasm. While I found the portions a bit small for the price, the quality of ingredients made up for it. I’ll definitely return for another unique dining experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Centrolina for a birthday celebration and it was phenomenal! The service was impeccable, and our waiter made personalized recommendations that enhanced our meal. I ordered the seafood pasta, which was delicious but a bit on the salty side. I appreciated the local sourcing of ingredients. The only downside was the portion size; I felt a bit hungry after. Overall, a lovely experience and I would come back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't recommend Centrolina enough! The freshness of their seafood dishes blew me away. Our waiter was so attentive and catered to our specific requests with ease. I felt the prices reflected the quality, although I wish the portions were larger. Regardless, this will definitely be my go-to spot for Italian food in DC! " (*Curated Review*)

" Centrolina impressed me with its delicious take on authentic Italian cuisine! The menu had great seasonal options, and I appreciated that they used local ingredients. Each dish we tried was well-prepared, and I loved the ambiance of the restaurant. The only downside was the prices and portion sizes being small, but I think you’re paying for quality here. Looking forward to coming again with more friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited Centrolina after seeing rave reviews and it lived up to the hype! The food was a delightful mix of authentic and modern Italian cuisine. My favorite was the pappardelle—it was cooked perfectly. The service was top-notch, my server even took time to share the story behind the dishes. Though the prices are high, the quality of the food makes it justifiable. I will be spreading the word about this hidden Italian gem! " (*Curated Review*)

" Food was great! We ordered several dishes to share, and while everything was beautifully plated, I felt like the portion sizes were quite small for the price. Plus, service was a bit slow and hit or miss. The ambiance was enjoyable, though! Overall a nice place for a special occasion but watch the bill. " (*Curated Review*)
