We had dinner at Center Cafe last Thursday and were so impressed we went Friday too. The food is sophisticated and packed with flavor in a way that is really rare. No fancy tall stacks and meaningless garnishes here. The dishes are presented in an attractive manner, but it's all about the flavor. I warn you - the next few... more

I'll start by saying the food here was excellent. It was high quality, cooked perfectly, and plated very nicely. It tasted great, as well. The service was friendly and efficient. My issue was the price, especially for the amount of food we got (the portions were very small). We saw many people walk up to the menu outside the restaurant... more

We celebrated our 10-year anniversary dinner at the Center Cafe -- although it was difficult to find (tucked into residential area off Main Street), the food was very good, well presented, atmospher was lovely and the server very professional and accommodating. more

The food is excellent; we had tapas two evenings and dinner two evenings. Restaurants in the West tend to have LARGE portions. The portions here are more manageable, but I still I had two appetizers and skipped the entree. The dessert (peach-blackberry tart) was enough for four people. They try to source much of their food locally; their tomatoes were... more

In the middle of nowhere..Go figure. One of the top 10 meals we've ever had. Group of four and we all loved it. Great Dungeness crab cake appetizer, excellent Caesar salad, and great entrees; ternderloin, amazing paper thin crusted pizza with figs, bleu cheese and red onions, rainbow trout, etc. Topped off with a mixed berry crisp dessert that was... more

I would call this pretty good as it is a step above all the other offersing s in Moab, both in price and quality. It is pretty inventive and they seem to key in on local and seasonal foods in creating their menus, which I like. A steak dinner is going to be around $30 and most entrees are in... more

Based on other reviews, we tried this restaurant during 3 days in Moab. It was the stuffiest, most unappealing place for our entire trip. Waitstaff was inexplicably slow (it was only 1/3 full), prices were inflated, food was decent but not exceptional. In comparison we ate twice at the Moab Brewery which is a much better value, excellent (but not... more

We just finished our meal at the Center Cafe and it was perfect. We had good service and great quality food. The setting was very nice and the waiter we had was polite but social in a good way also in recommending wine to go with are food. We are already here for a week in utah started in Las... more

After slogging through a week of mostly pedestrian fare in southern Utah, I was very pleasantly surprised to find the Center Cafe in downtown Moab. Unremarkable from the outside, the inside decor is quite pleasant. All of the food courses were excellent - both raw materials and preparation. Service was fine. Although spendy, it is not excessive. I would certainly... more
