Caffe Centro - Table reservation

Had a great time and found a quaint restaurant off the beaten path for a tourist.

Overall very good. The restaurant is a bit of a mashup between a cafe and a bistro but does it well. Staff all nice, food really good with great big helpings. No hesitation in recommending or going again.
