Central Grill deserves 5 Stars for their staff, but 2 stars for their food and building. My family was in Interlaken looking for some place to eat dinner that wasn't crazy expensive, and this place seemed like a good option. Our first impressions were great, as we were greeted by an exteremely kind and enthusiastic staff. Despite our language differences, they did their best to explain their menu to us and help us find something we would like. I think they had recently opened and didn't have much business, so they seemed very excited to have us.
To be honest, this place is sort of a dive. It doesn't look the cleanest because it's a little run down and cheap, but it's really not as bad as it looks initially. We could also smell a smoker where we were sitting but the staff was kind enough to shut the doors and that helped.
Once the food came out, we were very impressed with the portions--they were huge (Especially the Kebabs)! It tasted good at first but the longer I ate it the more it became less satisfying to me. It was hard to eat as much as they gave and was almost just too much of the same thing. The quality was fine...nothing special. Members of my family who ordered a salad felt the same way I did about the Kebab.
Unfortunately I probably won't come back here, because I just felt a little gross after eating. I would give the overall restaurant and food a 2, but I really was so impressed with the staff and with I could rate it even higher because of them. read more
