La Central Xalapa Reviews
El lugar es cumple con las 3B, aunque es cierto que el espacio es reducido, la terraza es un lugar bastante agradable cuando hay buen clima, el mobiliario podría ser un poco más cómodo. La comida es muy rica y el servicio 9/10. Recomiendo llegar temprano en fin de semana ya que se llena y hay lista de espera, sino otra opción es pedir para llevar pero el lugar no cuenta con servicio a domicilio
Muy bonito el lugar ⭐️ buena atención ⭐️, la comida rica ⭐️, precios accesibles ⭐️ y el ambiente agradable ⭐️ se lleva todas las estrellas
Delicioso el spaghetti al pesto 🍝🍕🍺
El día de tu cumple te dan un paquete gratis, lo único malo es que el servicio es lento porque hay muchas personas y las porciones son pequeñas. El helado y brownie saben muy ricos.
es un lugar sumamente bonito en el centro de xalapa, las instalaciones son muy llamativas y en cuanto a la comida las pizzitas siempre son un 10/10 sin embargo la actitud de su personal deja mucho que desear (cabe aclarar que no se todo el personal, de una mesera en particular) pésima actitud al momento de atender y demasiado grosera en cuanto a lo demás, lo único que no recomendaría consumir sería el café de ahí
Muy rica la comida y el ambiente, pedimos pasta al pesto y tapas, sí recomiendo
Tenía tiempo que no visitaba este lugar, y quedé fascinado, recomiendo las tapas, me mucho gusto saber que sigue conservando la calidad que yo recordaba, felicidades!
Excelente lugar para platicar un rato y comer rico, la comida deli deli, y muy llenadora
Love it
Ideal to have a coffe or beer.
Me gustó bastante👍 recomiendo las pastas. Además los paquetes que ofrecen están muy bien en relación calidad/precio. La decoración del lugar está muy bonita. Si te toca esperar mientras te asignan mesa hay unos sillones y bancas donde puedes esperar y puedes pedir unas bebidas mientras esperas.
Their menu offers a variety of delicious and affordable food. The tables are covered with paper that you can paint on. There are many areas where you can take great photos 🤗 The benches on the terrace can be uncomfortable due to the lack of back support and their small size. They don't have coat racks.
They haven't changed the prices on the menu that appears on maps, that's my only complaint because I thought it was cheaper and well no, it's like $20 per dish, but hey, it's still worth it and I think the price is fair because everything is delicious and the place is beautiful if you love art and places of this style.
A busy restaurant-bar with table service and an extensive menu of freshly prepared food, specializing in pasta, but also offering tapas, personal pizzas, salads, and desserts. The drinks menu is varied, offering classic and more contemporary drinks that maintain the essence of the place. Wine and national beer are also available. The decor is meticulous, and each space feels special. Textures and imperfections are exploited under warm tones and neon lights. Large modern murals decorate the different rooms, creating a cohesive atmosphere throughout. The restaurant is spread over two levels. Inside, there are different lounges, and on the upper floor, there is an outdoor terrace that combines design with a view of the Manuel Maples Arce Plaza. The soundtrack is outstanding in every room. The furniture consists of square tables made of wood and ironwork and is well distributed throughout the different spaces, with adequate distance between diners. The service could definitely be improved; I think it's the only aspect that could change the experience of the place. I also found the quality of the food to be consistent: Good presentation Well-balanced flavor Quality ingredients Adequate temperature La Central is a favorite among the people of Xalapa, ideal for visiting alone, as a couple, or in a group; it has an authentic and peaceful atmosphere. They accept card payments.
Good place to find spaghetti and cocktails.
Sometimes is really crowded that the only fact to thing, the rest is pretty ok
Tasty food but the service may be slow if too crowded.
The food isn't as good as it used to be; the pesto is too oily, which makes it unpleasant. The service is bad: once, the waiter practically kicked us out because they had a waiting list for the terrace and he wanted our table. The second time, they wouldn't let us in with our daughter because "children under a certain age aren't allowed." We explained that she's a teenager but short, and they still refused to let us in, even though we've been there countless times with her. We even messaged the website, and they told us our daughter was allowed, but oh well... The only redeeming feature is the atmosphere, but it's not a place I would recommend.
The service is sometimes good and sometimes it needs a bit more. The food is below average, but maybe that's enough for the young people. The atmosphere is very nice.
The food is alright, nothing extraordinary. The staff are dull and have an unpleasant attitude. The overall ambient of the place is nice but the staff lacks friendly service.
Great location. Very alternative vibe with good music for spending the afternoon with friends. Wide variety of drinks (alcoholic and non-alcoholic) and food (pasta, pizza, and snacks) at excellent prices considering the portion size. Very good service (fast and attentive). I tried the pizza (I would suggest adding more cheese) and the pasta (soak it in sauce, it was very dry); the sangria was delicious. They should improve the ventilation in the building, especially the bathrooms.
Good food, and the terrace is a smoking zone, good service too
Just improve the part about serving wine in aluminum cups and stop the waitresses and the bartender on the terrace making faces because they're not being asked to pay the bill or give things away for free.
My partner and I have been coming here for several years. There were several times when we didn't like things, but today was just too much. The guy who served us never responded to polite things like "good night" or "thank you." We still tolerate that, but when he brought us two pastas (cold, by the way) and two beers, we asked for a glass of water. The waiter told us they don't give glasses of water, only when you have wine, but that he would just bring us one, as if he were doing us a favor and it wasn't a national law. Bad service. La Central WAS a good place.
I don't really understand why people keep rating this restaurant with lots of stars! Its horrible! It might be true that it used to be a great place in the past like their reputation, but now they offer very dry salty pasta and poorly looked hard pizzita. That waitress worked hard i admit but they didn't refund for the too salty pasta with the reason I have already eaten. It's a shame that the atmosphere of the restaurant looks good but food does not allow to feel it.
