This is one of my favorite places in the neighborhood. The margaritas are always terrific, service is friendly and the food is tasty. The most reliable restaurant in the hood.

We ended up here while walking in the area m, trying to find where and what to eat. I saw they had Chilaquiles and marched our way to them right away, after giving them a call.
We were greeted by a extremely cordial waiter, that I can't sadly remember his name and luckily he was our waiter for the evening.
I ordered Chilaquiles because that was what lured me into El Centro, my sister ordered the same. Boyfriend and mom had fajitas, one steak one chicken.
Everything was delicious, the meats were all cooked perfectly, they enjoyed their fajitas a lot. I also enjoyed the Chilaquiles but it wasn't quite what I expected... the Chilaquiles were supposed to be cooked in a mix of green and red sauce, according to the menu, but it tasted more like they poured vodka sauce instead, which I also like but was left desiring to try the green and red sauce instead.
Other than that, everything was excellent and food was flavorful.
I had the best Piña colada ever here!!! It wasn't a frozen one, which I found weird at first but it was packed with so much flavor!!!! I've had plenty of Piña Coladas, in many different restaurants, bars and even different countries, but theirs was the best I've had!!!
I would definitely come back for more!!!!

The nachos are home made and delicious. I’ve also tried three types of tacos(chicken, beef steak,beef ribs), they are amazing.

Nice Mexican restaurant. The fish tacos were pretty good and so was the frozen margarita.

This place was recommended to us by a local a few years ago by a local and everytime we visit NYC it's a must visit.
Food is great, service has always been good for us, it's nice to sit outside and eat and watch the world go by.

I have struggled to find a good Mexican spot in the city! We loved El Centro.
Nachos: 5/5. Smaller than I would have liked but the chicken was cooked perfectly! The guac and jalapeños were a great touch.
Pork Burrito: 4/5. The pork was a little over cooked. But the portions were huge!
Great service, very quaint, and great if you don’t need something over the top.

Great place! Came here late at night for a light bite with friends after going to dueling pianos across the street. Our waiter was fantastic, service was quick, and the tacos and sweet potato fries I had were delicious.

Such a great dining experience! Great ambiance and the food was wonderful. Big fan of the contactless ordering, and it makes ordering in a big group a lot easier in terms of splitting the bill and whatnot. I got the veggie burrito; so worth it for the price! Huge portion of food.

One of the best chilaquiles to eat in the city. The chicken tacos were extremely tasty and the pomegranate steak tacos hit the spot. You won't be disappointed come down and eat.
