They offer great wine & drink options as well as a fun tapas menu. There are lots of great options for every taste. We had a great cava & a couple of the starters.

Our first time at La Central & we were very impressed. This restaurant even has table service, which I did not realize was an option here. You sit where you want & just advise them or they may notice you grabbing the menu & head over. The food was really good, we had a variety of dishes & some drinks. You cannot argue with the price either, I assume the overhead is reduced since they are within La Central, so you get a good deal versus a full restaurant. This area doesn't have the best food options, so I'm glad to see this option available for a nice meal & a decent price & there are many others within La Central as the place was quite busy & I have heard good things about many of the restaurants.

Plats délicieux & service au top avec une ambiance sympathique à la montréalaise. Si vous voulez passer un bon moment, installez-vous au comptoir & vous ferez de belles rencontres autour d'un verre de vin.

The waitress was nice. The octopus was tender, but smelly, so we couldn't eat it. Both the scallops & the shrimp were undercooked. The potatas brava weren't crispy or spicy. So, not my favorite place.

I didn't know octopus could taste so good! It was like chicken.

They seem to have raised their prices quite a bit. However, it's still really good. The $17 lobster tail is definitely worth it; the $10 scallops are very small in portions but they're also really good.
