Alcentro Trattoria - Bloomingdale

Beautiful restaurant. Lovely atmosphere. Small well crafted menu. I do not recommend the basic martini. It was more bitter than I was expecting. Highly recommend the Ravioli.

Over all I can say I liked their food, sauce and presentation. Quantity was large and I personally prefer eating small but then that’s just a preference but definitely delicious food. It’s in Great location. It’s a cozy. There are few breweries around this restaurant which makes it better otherwise they serve alcohol too. One of the best thing about this restaurant and of-course all other around in this area is they have this lit up trees at night and it’s so welcoming. These guys also have sit out area I wish it was summer. Service is great. I mean the waitress was nice Italian accent. I may be wrong but I thought food took longer than I would have expected more so because it wasn’t crowded when I was there. There isn’t enough parking right outside the restaurant but there is enough around. I don’t thing anyone will ever drive away because of lack of parking.

As for the food, everyone loved it! The pizzas we started with were delicious! We opted for a buffet style so that guests could mingle and chat. The buffet spread was perfect. The house-made ravioli was a big hit, and the beef was cooked to perfection. The whole roasted chicken was absolutely delicious. Overall, my friends, family, and I had a wonderful time! Thank you, Al Centro Trattoria, and a huge thank you to Mariyana!

The best Branzino I've ever had! It was cooked to perfection. The salad was huge. I even had leftovers for lunch the next day. The drinks were great, and I loved the atmosphere. Be sure to make a reservation!

I had an excellent experience at this restaurant! The service was fantastic—both friendly and professional. I highly recommend trying the meatballs and the polenta appetizer; they were outstanding. The calamari was also very good. For dinner, both the onion marsala and the lobster ravioli were delicious and packed with flavor. The desserts were exceptional as well. The atmosphere was wonderful, and I loved sitting on the terrace this summer.
