- AAnnCleveland / Akron / Canton •2 reviews5.0Dined on 20 Sept 2026Had lobster arancini, wedding soup, petit filet, and shared mashed potatoes and mac and cheese. Partner had prime rib. Everything was absolutely delicious. Best wedding soup I have ever tasted. Steaks were tender and very flavorful. Also, had tiramisu and cheesecake for dessert. Four choices for dessert. Little bit of a walk from Playhouse Square and close to Progressive Field on 9th Street. Easy to find. Play was delayed an hour at Playhouse Square, which changed our reservation, but Centro accommodated us without an issue. Highly recommend if you would like a great restaurant for steak. Service was the best, also.More infoThe Centro- Cleveland$$$$• Modern European• Downtown Cleveland•4.3
