We went to Central Grille for the DineLA menu and truly enjoyed it. We got the the braised short ribs and herb crusted mahi mahi. Although the short ribs weren't hot enough, the flavor was wonderful. They were paired with garlic potatoes, that were really very good. The mahi mahi was perfect. It was on a bed of forbidden rice - not my favorite - along with roasted mushrooms, red peppers and asparagus, topped with an avocado sauce. Our starters were tortilla soup - wonderful flavors with good chicken and tortilla strips - and Caesar salad. It was perfectly dressed, not too much and not too little. But there was only a half of a red grape tomato and half a yellow grape tomato. There should have been more. Dessert was key lime pie - fantastic, and carrot cake - good. The drizzle of berries and cream wasn't necessary though. The dinner was quite good, and were were very pleased. We would definitely go here for dinner again.

Was just OK - food was just OK, but the waitress who was very nice, forgot an item we ordered, and then forgot to charge us for a drink. Had to wait 10 minutes to find her to pay the bill, then had to wait while she added the missed drink. The food wasn't good enough to put up with the slow service.

We found the Central Grille because it was across from our hotel. What a gem! The service was fabulous - our waiter Wesley treated us like family. The food was cooked to perfection and was delicious. Would definitely recommend a stop here when in the area.

Very impressed with excellent and attentive service. Food was delicious, especially the salmon and the Mahi Mahi dish, quite different with forbidden rice. This was our first visit here and was found through Open TAble. We will be back for another visit soon.
