Das sind die besten Spareribs, die ich je gegessen habe! Super zart, voller Geschmack – einfach ein Genuss. Der Wirt ist unglaublich freundlich und die Bedienung sehr aufmerksam, ist auf all unsere Wünsche eingegangen. Besonders positiv: Das Restaurant ist sehr kinderfreundlich, inklusive einer Spielecke – was heutzutage leider nicht mehr selbstverständlich ist. Aber die Zertale denkt an alle. Wir kommen definitiv wieder!

Ich hatte kürzlich das Vergnügen, im Restaurant Zentrale zu essen, und ich war begeistert! Das Schnitzel, das ich bestellte, war äußerst lecker und perfekt zubereitet. Die Speisekarte ist vielfältig und bietet für jeden Geschmack etwas Passendes. Besonders beeindruckt hat mich die Qualität der Küche, die definitiv eine Empfehlung wert ist. Das Bier rundete das ganze Erlebnis ab und schmeckte hervorragend. Die Preise sind ebenfalls sehr gut und bieten ein ausgezeichnetes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis. Alles in allem ein großartiger Ort, um gutes Essen und Getränke zu genießen, ohne dabei das Budget zu sprengen. Ich komme gerne wieder!

Das Steak war genussvoll auf den Punkt gebraten, die Bratkartoffeln mit Speck köstlich und der Salat knackig...wenn jedes gehobenenes Restaurant das mal so zubereitet, hätten wir nichts zu meckern...Das Personal ist zuvorkommend und höflich... Das Ambiente entspricht einer Dorfgemeinschaft mit einen tollen Charakter, wo man rein kommt und sich direkt wohlfühlt. Ich kann empfehlen, hier mal anzuhalten und das Essen zu testen/ probieren... Über das Zimmer werde ich morgen ein Statement abgeben...

Wir waren heute wiederholt zur Firmenweihnachtsfeier dort. Das Essen war lecker, wir hatten Büffet und der Service war klasse, weil unaufdringlich, zügig und freundlich. Wir wohnen in Hamburg-Langenhorn, deshalb würden wir dort nicht "mal so eben" hinfahren. Aber wenn man in der Gegend ist, können wir einen Abstecher in "Die Zentrale " wirklich empfehlen.
