    First time at Cenzino. Drinks and ambiance were very good, salad and appetizers a bit small, entrees good. Liked it a lot- didn’t love it.

    This was our second time to this restaurant. We came back for a special Valentine’s dinner (not actually on Valentine’s Day). Our first visit was fantastic. The service was impeccable and the food and drinks were delicious so we were really looking forward to the dinner and brought friends with us. Unfortunately this experience was the complete opposite. The service was terrible. Server didn’t know the menu or what was on it. The food runners didn’t know who ordered what. They left empty drink glasses on the table even after new ones were delivered. Never asked how our meal was or if we needed anything else. This is an upscale, slightly expensive restaurant and this evening was a complete waste of money. Very sad to say that we won’t be going back even though we really like the atmosphere and the live music (singing Frank Sinatra, etc) is a nice extra.

    Dawn, We are happy you found us and apologize for your second experience. It is not our standards that we aim to deliver everyday at Cenzinos. If you'd be kind and reach out to me to chat further and explore a fair resolve. We take great pride in our offerings and service. I pledge I have addressed this with our staff. Our heartfelt apologies.

    Always great food and great service. We had Ronnie as our server, outstanding and highly professional. He had a large party coming in, but we never felt rushed or neglected for a minute! Save room for dessert!
