In Burbank this past Saturday, there were huge lines -2-3 hours at one place – and were wondering what to do next when we drove past Central Grille. We liked what we read in the reviews and decided to stop in. So glad we did. From the three different short rib dishes we got to the salads to the drinks to the service of Mike, we had a blast. And our party of 7 had the Sky Room to ourselves. We will be back!

Work nearby and thought I’d check out this new place. (I use to come here years ago when it was Shakers) My servers were great. It was during one’s break but I still got quick, excellent and pleasant service. In other words they put up with my overt chattiness. I ordered a special…the Mediterranean salad. Did you know you can get zucchini bread as a bread option? It’s like getting a free dessert! And, it was on par with my Mom’s so good on you Central Grille! The salad was delicious. Lots of textures and flavor so every bite had its own pop…imagine classic greek salad with a special pesto vinaigrette and some extras thrown in like pepperoni and grilled corn. Glad you are within walking distance, Central Grille, so I’ll be back.

The restaurant serves no nonsense American food. The place is huge, great for social distancing. Love the tortilla soup and apple boysenberry crumble.

Wow! Shakers was good, but this place is great. I can tell they spent a lot of time and money designing this restaurant. Nice interior asd really good food. Unique menu items and full bar. The crispy fried Brussel sprouts were VERY good. Friendly staff too.

It was a dark and rainy evening, I was on my way home when I saw the Central Grill. I had been wanting to try for a while and decided why not now. However they hadn’t opened yet. I saw the lights were on and I walked in soaking wet and the host/waiter greeted me asking if I needed some paper towels. It appeared that maybe the rain had deterred some customers. However the service here was excellent. The waiters were very attentive. Despite not having some things on their menu they graciously accommodated me. The waiters do an excellent job taking my order and was very warm and welcoming. The food was delicious and they made the steak just how I’d asked rare. They kept coming back to see if I was well. It was a slow evening after all. Food delicious service excellent I definitely will bring my friends.

Today I went to Central Grille for the very first time. I had the oatmeal with banana strawberries and walnuts with brown sugar and dried cranberries. It tasted great and was very fresh. The coffee was very good and service was friendly. I love the parking because there’s a lot of parking available behind the building.

These two stars are for the decor. Really cute. I came here to celebrate a coworker’s birthday. It was very crowded during lunch hour. We sat at the bar as there was an available table immediately. Bartender took our order and everything seemed okay… until my coworkers had finished their meals and I still hadn’t received mine. It turned out my meal wasn’t even ordered. Coworker went to complain to the hostess and was rudely dismissed… and he’s a really nice guy. Forty five min after arrival (or so it felt since everyone was done eating) I ended up with a so so salmon dish that quite honestly I could have made better at home. And I had to endure everyone watching me eat. Two other people I was with looked like their dishes could have been good. Not sure if I’d go back though. It’s extremely rare for me to write a bad review (shameless plug for my other reviews) as I understand that things happen when it comes to crowds and food service. But every good restaurant gets busy and how they handle the pressure says a lot about the management and even the ownership. Two out of 3 of the staff we encountered were reasonable however the 3rd unprofessional person made the experience unpleasant and awkward. The manager seemed very busy helping the staff and was gracious in listening to our feedback so he can share these two stars with the decore.
