I've been coming to central since 2012. It has steadily declined since then. Food has remained consistent (as in it never changes) decor has not changed a bit, and the service has deteriorated dramatically. In 2012 you would walk in and see this place packed, a lively ambiance and always a wait. 2017, dead, rude staff (although the fried chicken is amazing). Now about the rude staff... the Yugoslavian waiter, extremely rude and condescending. Rushed us out of there even though the place was empty and rudely corrected my pronunciation of "Central". Sorry dude!!! As a frequent diner, I stopped coming here because of the service...an more so because of that one waiter. I will not be returning.....only takeout for the fried chicken.

We went after the matinee at the National Theatre and sat at the bar. The bartender was delightful. We had the pre-fixe dinner - appetizer, entree and dessert for $38. I had the goat cheese Ceasar, the signature fried chicken, and the chocolate bar for dessert. Everything was delicious and I can't wait to go back.

If you want rude service and overpriced, mediocre food in a really loud coffee-shop environment, Central is the place to go. Otherwise, there are much better dining options in D.C.

Incredible Sunday brunch! Food was excellent, service and atmosphere were on point and the bottomless mimosas were amazing and only $15

Always enjoy the outstanding service and delicious food. Bonus for restaurant week was a three course meal at a reasonable price. I ate the hamburger with cheddar cheese. My daughter got the fried chicken. Enjoyed them. Lava cake with a surprise of rice krispies cereal on top added crunch and was good.
