The atmosphere is loud, with lots of people walking past you the entire meal because of its location. The food is a bit more expensive than it should be and not very noteworthy in flavor. I ordered the Taquitos de Papa and was surprised to discover that they were only half sized. The menu says they're giving you 4 taquitos, but it's really only 2 cut in half. They were pretty bland inside, necessitating salsa and the other toppings. I was also unimpressed by the quality of the lettuce served with them. They were ok, but I would not get again. Vegetarians like flavor too, you know! Also, these should have been listed under appetizers, as they weren't the most filling meal. Our table shared the guacamole and I will say that was very good. I'd get it again. However, it was overpriced for what it was. I did appreciate that they had a few vegetarian options. Would like to try a different one if I ever come back here. But I would choose other Downtown Disney or park restaurants first. read more

This is an easy 5 stars. The food was 10/10. Flavor was great. Drinks, appetizers, entres all delicious. Even the presentation was good. Service was professional and friendly. No complaints. It looked busy at night but it was very quiet for weekday lunch. It's located right in the middle of downtown Disney. Rather than walk around it, walk right in. You won't regret it. read more

Some restaurants become special because of the food. Others become special because of the memories you make there. Exactly one year ago, I met my girlfriend at Centrico for our very first date. So for our one-year anniversary, it only felt right to come back to where it all began. From the moment we sat down, our server Avelino made the evening feel incredibly authentic. We ended up learning he'd been with the restaurant group for 14 years, starting at Tortilla Jo's from opening day until it closed before transferring to Centrico. You can tell he genuinely enjoys what he does, and it showed in every recommendation he made. He suggested starting with the chips and guacamole, and wow... that guacamole deserves some recognition. It had a bright citrus flavor with the perfect balance of smooth avocado and chunky tomatoes. Easily one of the top 10 guacamoles I've had. For drinks, we ordered the Frozen Mangonada and the Tepache, and they couldn't have complemented each other better. The mangonada was loaded with authentic mango flavor, chamoy, and Tajín. It almost felt more like a dessert than a drink. The tepache, on the other hand, was light, crisp, and incredibly refreshing. Together they covered both ends of the spectrum perfectly. For dinner we shared the Quesopastor and a Caesar Salad. The quesopastor was packed with flavorful meat and was surprisingly filling, while the Caesar salad balanced everything out nicely. Before we left, Avelino even took the time to recommend a few other restaurants for future date nights if we wanted to keep exploring. That kind of genuine hospitality is becoming harder and harder to find. Coming back to the restaurant where our story started made for an unforgettable anniversary. Great food, incredible service, and memories we'll always have. Thank you, Avelino, for making an already special evening even better. read more

This is the third time I've been here. Today we had Tre as our server. He was awesome. He surprised us with a birthday treat. He was friendly and polite. Didn't ever have to look for him. The waiters who pick up the dishes were very friendly as well. Spicy Mamacita is one of my favorite cocktails. Love that it's actually spicy. Guacamole is fresh. Chips were warm and crisp. Not stale. Really love this place! read more

Average to subpar Mexican food especially for Southern California - though conveniently located in downtown Disney. Beautiful setting with outdoor seating and friendly service. There is certainly far better food and prices inside the Disney parks. Perhaps especially disappointed given the hype online and advertising of the association with Chef Carlos. The shrimp aguachile and tuna tiradito were fine though not well balanced and with some overwhelming flavoring that didn't allow the taste of the fish to come through or resemble the listed intended flavors/ ingredients. The shrimp aguachile sauce was heavy and could not taste any of the listed yuzu lime flavors, and the tuna tiradito was overly sweet. Perhaps most egregiously, the menu notes that both dishes use "chile toreados" but, as pictured, the dishes include pickled jalapeños that look like they come directly from a can. The cochinita pibil tacos were unfortunately dry without authentic flavor. For beverages, the Mezcalita and Tropical Breeze were tasty and overall balanced though nothing standout. read more

Wanted to lounge and enjoy some beverages. Found this place in the middle of Downtown Disney. No wait time. We were greeted and seated as a party of 3. Our waiter spoke in Spanish. I dont understand Spanish but I am thinking this is all part of the ambiance to Disney tourist. The best possible way to experience the ambiance is to give the an authentic experience. I did not mind it at all. Long story short, this place is Clean! The food and Drinks are delicious. This the 2nd time I have been here. Its been a couple of years. Its one the expensive side but you already know that sine you are in mouseland! Good outdoor vibe read more

Delicious food and a great atmosphere. Loves sitting outside in Downtown Disney and people in watching. I would recommend making reservations in advance because it can get busy. Even with reservations, plan to be waiting a bit during busy times since they get a lot of traffic. Food was excellent. I got the burrito which was delicious and the meat cooked perfectly. Everyone else in my party got tacos and loves them. Get the bottomless chips appetizer. The drinks were also good and I recommend the paloma. A little pricey but it's a great place for a special occasion or a treat yourself dinner. read more

We were expecting some good food at downtown Disney but it was a disappointment. We tried their 1) avocado flatbread: portion is tiny for $18. And the bread was so hard to chew that my jaw hurt afterwards 2) fish taco: they were ok. Sauce is ok, I honestly thought California fish grill taco tasted better, which shouldn't be with the price point. Unfortunately, I won't be coming back to downtown Disney to dine in. They're tourist food quality with high price point. read more

We came here in search of non-park food and we were blown away. Firstly, the staff and service is impeccable. Our waiter was swamped with a huge table but still made a point to check in on us throughout our meal. Secondly, this restaurant is placed in the middle of a very busy area of downtown Disney but you could never tell as it doesn't get too loud. Finally, and most importantly, the food was incredible. My wife ordered the quesachicken which was absolutely packed with chicken. I ordered the quesabirrias and it was so refreshing to see it made with lamb. There was a ton of meat in them and packed with flavor. Centrico will certainly be our go-to restaurant whenever we're back at Disney. read more

Why 3 stars? Because the food was fine, but the bill was crazy, even for Disney. --- --- --- When planning out our meals at Disneyland, Centrico was #1 on my list because it had the best reviews. We ordered some guacamole and me and the wife each ordered 3 tacos: her beef, me fish. Plus, we got a chicken quesadilla for our son. Add in 3 fountain drinks to cap it off. The guac was solid, the tacos were... fine. The bill comes and it's $106.67 before tip. If not at Disney, that's about a $35 meal. Before the bill came, I was thinking it was probably about a 4-star meal, but even writing it now, I'm thinking it might be more like 2-stars given what I paid. I get that Downtown Disney rent much be obscene, but good lord. I guess I'll split the difference at 3-stars and just advise my fellow Yelpers to eat something on the go in the parks because it's not worth paying even more here. read more

This was a great meal! Ribeye tacos were so flavorful and filling. Could not get our hands off the bottomless salsa. Mangonada was so refreshing on a hot day. Tuna tiradito was also refreshing and tart. Was not a big fan of the carne asada tacos, though. The tortillas were very soft and yummy, but the beef was a bit dry. Server was so sweet and knowledgeable of the menu. Kind of wish this could be an indoor restaurant for a bit more privacy from the Downtown Disney crowd, but it was still a comfortable experience. Overall, would definitely come back! read more

Went here for the first time on a Sunday after a Disney day. Sat at the bar where there were a few chairs available (long line for folks to get a table and no reservations available for hours). Soon after sitting we were greeted by the bartenders and given water. We were also given a drink menu, but I had to ask for a food menu. After perusing, we ordered: - Ancient Old Fashioned: Well balanced and tasty. Smooth. It would have benefited from a single large ice cube instead of standard ice cubes. - House red: I think this was a Merlot, but I'm not confident. It was smooth and easy to drink, though. - Bottomless chips and salsa: Unfortunate that this required paying for, while many restaurants offer for free, but they were still tasty and the salsa was good while not being too spicy. - Habanero sauce: We asked if there was any extra spicy salsa-like dipable and were told there was Habanero sauce, which was a $3 charge. We ordered a side of it, and were thoroughly warned that we needed to be very careful with it. It definitely had a kick, but was not destructive. - Street corn (elote): Delicioso! Hot, savory and creamy with a citrus kick, but without the corn being overcooked. Very good. - Fish tacos: Also very tasty and excellent quality. My chief flags were the prices and that the man next to us sat for a while trying to get a beer and was seemingly being ignored by the bartenders (they were attending to other guests that had arrived after). I flagged down the bartender that was serving us and asked him to pour the guy a beer, which ended up being remarkably expensive for a stone IPA. Still, this probably needs to be taken for granted, given being in downtown Disney. read more

We can on Juneteenth for the Disney on the yard celebration in Downtown Disney. We stop in Centrico for lunch and enjoy the open air atmosphere. This is a Mexican restaurant situate in the heart of Downtown Disney with views from every angle. We were seated as soon as we entered. Eyvonne was our server and she was phenomenal. She brought our chips and salsa with guacamole. I highly recommended the guacamole. It is so fresh. I ordered the Caesar salad with shrimp. There was a full bar and the seating is very comfortable. I didn't feel crammed into a space. This restaurant is comfortable for large groups. My experience was worth another visit..... SOON!! read more

I was in town for a Bachelorette party but arrived later in the evening. Everyone was in Disneyland, so I took the opportunity to have a quiet solo dinner before meeting the gals. I can't tell you how many times I've passed by Centrico but never ate there while in Downtown Disney. It stuck out in the back of my mind. How could it not? Centrico is right in the middle of Downtown Disney and notably has a tropical villa kind of vibe. I checked the restaurant's availability earlier in the day. It was one of the few spots where I could reserve a table for 1 if I wanted to. That said, I decided to take a chance at the bar, which was first come first serve. I arrived around 8:45pm, and the place was packed. It had a long queue of parties to get in too. Luckily there were several seats for me to choose at the bar. Everyone on the bar staff was friendly. Bonus pointa for my food coming out fast. I ordered the Smoky Paloma, which was fine. I believe it's a pre-batched cocktail. I could've sworn I saw my bartender pour it out of a tap. I was torn between their fish tacos and Centrico burger. My bartender said I could go either way. They're both her favorites off the menu. The fish tacos actually seemed like more food since the dish came with 3, so I opted for the burger. Solid choice if I do say so myself. The burger was juicy. I also loved the flavors from the charred peppers and the orange sauce. I'd certainly come back to try the fish tacos. The meal came with a side of fries with cotija cheese. They came out cold and did not have a consistent texture - some fries were crispy and well done but others were undercooked. read more

We decided to try them for lunch on our first day of vacation. It's outdoor seating in the center of Downtown Disney and loud and buggy (Spring in So Cal is buggy). We did have to wait a bit for drinks and to order, but our waitress was handling 3 big tables in addition to ours, so that was to be expected. The food was tasty - we did chips and salsa and carne asada tacos. The salsa is not too spicy and the chips are bottomless. The tacos are not double tortilla'd, which we are used to, so we probably should have ordered more food. Price wise, it fits the Disney pricing fairly. read more

I had a great experience at this restaurant. My server Alfredo was very kind and very accommodating. He made a recommendation for a delicious dish. I was originally just going to get tacos, but when I asked him what he recommended, he said that the HUARACHE DE ASADA was really good so I tried it! I loved it! It was just enough food and reasonably priced. I really liked this places vibe too ! read more

This was a fun spot! The firepit seating provides a great evening experience with a group. Don't be alarmed by the long check-in line- it moves quickly and staff works hard to seat parties as efficiently as possible! Check in and grab a fun drink at the bar! The burritos were amazing, fish tacos slightly bland, and stick to chips and salsa to start (guacamole with the chips was overpriced for our liking). Christina provided amazing service for our large group!! read more

I would give this place 3.5 stars if I could. It was a solid B+ We all got cocktails, and those were pretty good. The were hit and miss depending on the bartender who made them. We ordered Antojitos, and the tuna Tiradito was the winner. The shrimp aguachile was simply an unappetizing color. (This was the consensus of my dinner party) The shrimp ceviche was nice and vibrant in flavor. For main meals, everything was pretty decent. My only issue was I got the ribs. They were in a tamarind sauce that was not well balanced. It was tart and bitter. I had everyone at the table try them, and they all said the same thing. They lacked a depth of flavor and were almost too sour. The server did the best she could. It was a busy night. We had to keep flagging people down to get drinks and the things we needed. The busboys wanted to clear the table while we were all talking. That's a pet peeve of mine when you incessantly have to say you are still eating. The ambiance is fun. It's outdoors. Lots to look at, when you're overlooking downtown Disney. The bathroom is not super convenient, it's a Disneyland thing. You have to walk inside the building and go up a flight of stairs. This was a good visit. But, there are lots of things I would hope for the next time I came. read more

Located right in the heart of Downtown Disney, this open bar/restaurant have a great ambiance and vibe. It's modern, lively and airy, perfect for SoCal weather and the bustling atmosphere of Disney park. I really like the layout of Centrico in general and their 360-degree-view bar setting with alcohol display, so unique. Came straight here after my visit at DCA, all I want was to grab a cocktail and rest my feet after a long day. Arrived at 10PM and bartender nicely told us they were about to close, probably in 30 minutes. Even so, my visit at Centrico was pretty chill, she didn't rush us to place an order or anything. A few other people showed up even later than us, everybody seems to have a comfortable time hang out at the bar with their friends and family members. We ordered Tropipop Crush and Pina Mule, it was alright, I didn't really taste much of watermelon in my drink but it was enjoyable, I finished it before hopping to another bar nearby that was recommended by the bartender and other guests. Overall, I had a good time at Centrico, wish I can stay longer for another drink or hungry enough to other some food to try, but there will always a next time. I probably gonna go on Friday or Saturday instead of Sunday for my next visit. read more

It's a really cool vibe just to sit here a while, grab drinks, and share apps. We took our time here. Didn't wait too long to get seated either. Maybe a couple minutes. It was a hot day and they made sure to use only tables with shade. We shared a pitcher of margarita. Then we ordered chips and guacamole, seafood chicharrón, huarache de asada, and a side of rice and beans. It was plenty of food for 4 people. The guacamole was fresh and the chips were too. My favorite thing was the seafood chicharrón. It was really just different seafood fried lightly with a sauce on top. The huarache was just okay. Not flavorful and was placed on a longer corn tortilla. Traditionally, it's on masa (similar to a corn flatbread). I'd still go back again! The menu is small but it does the job. Most people seemed to be drinking and not eating. read more

We chose Disneyland to meet up for a small business meeting and to catch up. Food was good nothing crazy. I had the ceviche and liked it. My Gf, ordered the Cochinita pibil and she said it was good we ordered guacamole and it was ok. Service was slow. It seemed like one server was handling too many big tables. No water refills or soft drink refills and it took about 20 minutes to get the check. Restrooms are across at Paseo, so we did not want to leave while waiting to pay. I guess it's a vacationer's trap/quick option for food in Downtown Disney. Three stars. Good food. They just need more staff. read more

Centrico is one of our favorite Downtown Disney restaurants. After a long day at Disneyland what a joy to eat here on Saturday evening. Of course we always make reservations as this place is always packed with people waiting in lines. We were promptly greeted by our server Arturo. He took our drink order which came fairly quickly for such a crowded place. He was so friendly and gave us just the right amount of attention. He came by to take our order, but we hadn't quite decided. He said take your time, yet he didn't forget about us. With in 8-10 minutes he checked on us again. I ordered the BURRITO NORTEÑO. Arturo said that was an excellent choice. It was heavenly!! It was the perfect combination of meat, beans, cheeses and rice....plus all the other delicious high quality ingredients that were added. The meat was so tender and flavorful. The portion was large. It could easily feed two people. I'm so happy I have leftovers. Others at the table got the fish tacos and the rib eye tacos. They said they were both good. They liked the fish tacos the best. My husband ordered the taquitos. He said they were just ok. Arturo was the best server. He would come to check on us to see how the food was, do we need more drinks and then boxes to go. I asked if I could get some of the red sauce to go and he quickly returned with a nice sized Tupperware of it. He was wonderful!! Thank you Arturo and the whole staff at Centrico for a great evening!! Your great service hard work is appreciated!! read more

In all my years of walking to downtown Disney, I've passed by this place many times. For my fiancé's birthday I chose to have dinner with her and her friends here. I managed to get us in that little bit earlier than our scheduled reservation. As soon as I looked at the menu, I need right away that chips, salsa and guacamole were on them must have. The chips were made fresh and very crispy. This salsa was OK, but was too blended. I could definitely taste chipotle in the salsa, but it wasn't that bad. We all ordered cocktails, which were really good. The best part came when our entrées arrived. I had three fish tacos, wrapped in fresh flour tortillas. The mahi-mahi was good and the crème aïoli was very good on top. I added a little lime to it, which made it all come together. She had the Ahogada Torta with crispy Carnitas and beans and slivers of pickled red onion on top. The sauce that was all over was very spicy. Our friends had the potato taquitos and shrimp tacos, which they seem to enjoy very much. Are we or Erik was a very nice person. He looked after us and brought us more chips. Overall, the ambience was great. I really love the decor that they have. I will definitely come back to have dinner there one day. read more

This restaurant is located in Downtown Disney. As we were late in making dinner reservations, this was the only sit-down restaurant that we could find at 7pm that did not have a 2-hour wait on a Saturday evening. The bar was open seating, so we were able to get a seat almost immediately upon arrival. You get the exact same menu at the bar. Our server was really awesome. I wish I remembered his name. He gave us honest recommendations and gave us a Tupperware of fresh salsa when I asked to take the tortilla chips to go (which by the way were also really good). Our favorite dish was the Quesabirria, which stood out in flavor. Both of us did feel that the cheese was a little too burnt though. The shrimp aguachile was refreshing and spicy (if you eat a chili). I also enjoyed the Huarache de Asada, although it did not have any striking flavor profile. The alcoholic frozen mangonada was super good, if you're someone who enjoys fruity slushies. I'm a lightweight and got a little tipsy on it. read more

Centrico is an open-air Mexican restaurant that offers a lively, vibrant yet, festive ambiance. They serve elevated dishes such as: quesabirria, tacos, fresh seafood and specialty cocktails. Service was on point. Our hostess was friendly and helpful with menu. She made some great recommendations. Definitely order the shrimp aguachile! That was pure deliciousness!

In the central part of Downtown Disney lies a circular, canopied haven from the overwhelming bustling of the Disney crowds. Centrico is a fine dining Mexican cantina which serves Michelin-starred Chef Carlos Gaytan's contemporary takes on Mexican street food and classics. The restaurant combines an open-air layout with natural characteristics (wooden decor, verdant foliage hanging down from the lattice roof, etc.) to create a lush, relaxing atmosphere. You almost feel like you're in a bubble where the liveliness of the Downtown flows and ebbs all around you, but you are sort of removed from all of that. Centrico offers a variety of cozy places to chill at, from their upscale bar to the intimate fire pits. Getting to the food - my buddy and I ordered two of their signature dishes - Chef Carlos' BBQ ribs ($25) & the Huarache de Asada ($24). The ribs offer some generous amount of tender meat on each bone. It is coated by a sticky, smoky, and tangy chipotle-tamarind glaze and garnished with dill & mint. A side of coleslaw and pickled cucumbers accompanies it. While I thoroughly enjoyed the tangy punch of flavors with the first rib piece, I did quickly grow tired of the richness of the tamarind sauce afterward. This dish seems more ideal as a small bite opener to split with the table. The Huarache de Asada was lovely from start to finish. A corn masa lays out the foundation of the dish, and it is then topped by juicy, flavorful flank steak along with a black bean purée, caramelized onions, and a goat cheese sauce (I appreciate that they really tamed down the punch of the goat cheese flavor). All of the flavors work in tandem with each other - the meatiness of the flank steak with the sweet jammy feature of caramelized onions, and robust black bean puree and corn masa. Their freshly made guacamole ($17) is an easy hit too with smashed avocados, citrusy lime, cilantro, and onions. They are served with warm tortilla chips (these are a tad bit saltier than I prefer). Between the beautiful decor, laid back ambiance, and delicious food, I'd be willing to visit again (with more Disney buddies). read more

My family decided to start our weekend in Disneyland by trying one of the newer restaurants in Downtown Disney, Centrico. I had read lots of good things, and my family loves a good Mexican restaurant. I had a reservation, which I recommend anytime you want to do sit-down dining in Disneyland. Centrico is a cool, outdoor restaurant. It is a covered space with lots of cool seating and a large bar in the center. Above the bar is a beautiful, natural light that feels like the sky. The service here was really good, although they all seemed very busy. The food here is very good. The chips and salsa was delicious although I kind of got pretty full on them because they were just so good. The entrees were all really good. My favorite dish was the fish tacos. They were pretty large and packed a lot of flavor. The Huaracha de asada was really good, but I felt the flavor or the corn tortilla kind of overpowered the other parts of the dish. The steak was good, yet I would've like more of it! The salmon was really well cooked and had a nice crispiness to it. There was a bed of sweet corn underneath that was really the dominant flavor of the dish, but it was tasty! Overall, a great dining experience. I would go back here anytime! read more
