Our visit to Restaurante Centrum was nothing short of appalling. While we had hoped for a pleasant dining experience, we were instead met with offensive and unprofessional behavior from the staff that left us deeply uncomfortable and outraged.

The evening started off rocky, but nothing prepared us for the unacceptable, racist comments made by our waiter. One particularly shocking interaction occurred when our friend, who is Black, engaged in an exchange with the waiter after being told, “The plate is hot, not you.” When our friend replied, “I’m hot too,” the waiter responded with, “No, you’re not hot; you’re Black.” This was preceded by another inappropriate comment directed at a different black friend in our group, whom the waiter immediately referred to as “LeBron James” solely based on his appearance.

These remarks weren’t just offensive—they completely ruined the atmosphere, made us feel unwelcome, and tainted the entire experience.

Very busy and noisy place. The food is average at best. I’m suspicious how they can provide so many dishes on the menu, but when the food arrived , it’s clearly not top quality food products. The portions are a nice size but the side veg looked over boiled or had been sitting around for awhile. The deserts are nothing like the menu pictures and are tiny at 6-7 euros each .The strawberry sundae I ordered was so frozen it tasted of ice and nothing else and creme brûlée turned out to be all ice cream. I’m not quite sure how this place gets all the high reviews. The staff are so busy that communication is minimal and comes across as not having time for you as a customer . Plus people smoking at tables isn’t nice both in terrace and tables...
