Brasserie Centrale

As the reviews suggest, this branch has always been hit and miss. I dined here yesterday and it was more positive. Service has definitely improved. Very good. All staff were friendly, attentive and nice. They were also really on the ball with allergies. I was asked a few times so at least they take it seriously. Nice menu of pasta, salads, pizza, desserts and more. They also offer breakfast earlier in the day. I had the beef ragu pappardelle which was braised beef slow cooked in red wine, black olives and herbs. This was served with pappardelle pasta. It came out really quick so I am not convinced on how freshly made it was. Tasted nice but not amazing. Some of the cuts of beef were fatty. Hearty pasta dish. I don't believe the calories displayed on the menu were correct. The lemon sorbet served with a Lingue di Gatto biscuit was badly presented and thrown into a plate. Almost as if I was at home! I could have done a better job myself. The sorbet was nice and refreshing in the heat. They give three scoops. Nice restaurant. Very big but tables are nicely spaced so it never feels crowded. Lovely in the evening especially with the dim lighting. Always busy given the location in the hotel. Many non-guests tend to dine here too. Generally good but always very hit and miss!

This Carluccio offers hospitable hosts, delicious dishes, beautiful presentation, and a great experience. Staff friendly and professional, specially Annalisa who took great care of our group. We loved the decorations for Valentines day! Recommended if you want some peace and tranquillity for your special events and fine dining.

Went for dinner at the Marriott at the recommendation of a friend. It’s definitely a popular place, it was super busy. So much so that our food took a long time to arrive. It was clear that they were not organized enough to handle the influx of customers that evening. However, the service and the food were amazing and that made up for it. And I must tip my cap to Anna our waitress. She was apparently “in training” but you’d never know it. She was twirling from table to table like an acrobat, keeping a smile on everyone’s face, despite the rush. I almost felt bad ordering another wine, as she looked like she needed one more than I did! She was super helpful and recommended an amazing dessert that we were still humming about the next day. Definitely will come back.
