Description

Central Café offers Lebanese cuisine in a fast-casual setting. The menu includes appetizers such as hummus, tabbouleh, fatoush, falafel and kibbe (beef, onions and almonds served with a yogurt sauce.) For heftier meals, Central Café offers sandwiches and entrées, including kebabs (available with chicken, beef or kafta - ground beef with spices, parsley, onions and garlic) and shawarma. The "rotisserie" chicken is a standout, spicy and flavorful. Guests can sit inside or enjoy the small patio. Central Café also offers hookahs.

  • 2011 | Best Middle Eastern Restaurant

    Central Café & Bakery presents what philosophers term the Pita Paradox (or Pitadox, if they're in the faculty lounge). On the one hand, the freshly baked pita at this Central West End restaurant is so terrific that you'll want to time your visit to its emergence from the oven, order hummus and baba gannouj -- both of which are served with pita -- and gorge yourself. On the other hand, if you gorge yourself on pita, you won't be hungry for Central Café's beef... More »
