Centro's take-home dinners include pasta, salad, dessert and a side of bread. Photo: Centro
Grab Dinner for the Family at CentroCentro is offering a way for families to dine out without really dining out this weekend. The popular downtown Italian restaurant has continued its family-style take-home menu (created last year during the pandemic), with meals for two or four people—delivery or carryout only.
Families get their choice of pasta (chicken and
prosciutto, truffle mac and cheese, spicy rigatoni with sausage, penne with meat sauce or chicken fettuccine alfredo), salad (Centro, Cesar or mista) and dessert (cheesecake or chocolate torte). The meal comes with four or eight pieces of bread from South Union Bakery as well.
Prices are $44 for two servings; $88 for four. Order online here.
