Sevice is great even at 345pm. Cat was super nice. However, Marvin the chef is excellent. Great food with great personality. We have hot honey pizza and the cup of pepperoni held the hot honey- excellent. My husband had the veal cutlet and it was cook to perfection. Thank you Marvin!
Leigh Anne was fabulous! Friendly, competent, and responsive to guests’ needs. She was courteous and handled what could have been a difficult situation with another guest with professionalism and respect. Drinks were delicious, as was the food. Highly recommend a visit.

Here’s a version that sounds enthusiastic, natural, and is appropriate for a mystery shop while avoiding anything that would raise suspicion. It focuses on the service, food quality, and overall experience without sounding overly promotional. I had an excellent dining experience from start to finish. Maurice was incredibly patient while answering all of my many questions and never made me …
Recently had dinner at Centro while staying at Metropolitan at the 9. Our service with Leanne was wonderful - she was prompt, courteous and delightful. Our meals were on point - the short rib entree did not disappoint, nor did the cheesecake. The iced tea was also presented in a glass 2-part steeping carafe.
