    Chips Trio
    Nikky V.

    Such a cute and fun spot! I loved the pink and bright colors inside along with the disco ball decor -- it gave the restaurant such a fun vibe. We originally planned to sit on the heated patio, but it was still a little too chilly outside, so we ended up moving indoors instead. We started with the chips trio, and the guac and queso were definitely my favorites. I seriously couldn't stop eating them! The only downside was that quite a few of the chips in our basket were broken into really small pieces. For my meal, I ordered the 2 Tex Mex tacos. They were really tasty and super filling with great portion sizes, though they did seem a little heavy on the ground beef. Overall, still a great experience and a fun place to eat!

    Chicken Quesadilla

    Got Centro take out during work lunch hours. Was ready for pick up promptly! I got the chicken quesadilla. It was much bigger than expected and not too oily. The chicken was cooked pleasantly. The salsa included also added more flavor! Great food. Thank you!

    After shopping for shoes across the street, we ran into this wonderful little space! Stopped in with my daughter and we were able to get a cute booth at the window. The bar server greeted us and let us know how to order. We were both starving and wanted to get some tacos. I had the chicken tinga and the braised beef. I really loved the chicken tinga but the braised beef just did not have a lot of flavor. I also had a side of beans, they were definitely undercooked and again, not a ton of flavor with them. I also had the horchata, it is a small glass filled with ice, so not sure it is worth the price point or at least order two. The guacamole was amazing and I would definitely get that if you go! PROS: Tortillas were great, loved the chicken tinga Great space, drinks galore CONS: Parking- always- there is street parking Lack of flavor in some items

    Yummy margs. Premade, so you can't omit ingredients.

    Doc took some staff out for happy hour. Some had been before and raved about the food. This was my first time. Centro is in a nice location that's near the Rosedale Mall but not all the traffic. I haven't been to this restaurant since it's been remodeled (previously Good Earth) and it's very trendy, IG worthy. Bright colors, murals on the inside/outside. It was seat yourself dining. And "scan the QR code to order". However, we did have the waiter take everyone's order because it was going to be ONE BIG BILL. Drinks came out, then we ordered food (apps for some, entrees for the rest). Great happy hour deals on drinks, and chips w/ dips. I ordered a Guava Margarita. It came in a lowball glass, garnished with a lime and spicy tajin rim. It was strong enough for me. Tattersall.... say no more! Tasted like a normal Marg, guava didn't stand out. Apps were shared. Chips were warm and salty. Guac was above average. Salsa and queso stood out more. Cool Ranch wings with ranch dip. Others loved them. I didn't taste much "Cool Ranch". Dirty Yuka fries. I got to try 1 but grabbed lots of its toppings and sauce. Don't know what a YUKA is but that was good. I would have had another if there were some left. Now my entree.. the Elote Carnitas Crunch wrap. Didn't come with any sides (rice, beans) or dipping sauce. Although I did steal some leftover Ranch from the wings. I cut it in half for easier eating and it looked beautiful. Due to the Carnitas, it was very drippy/messy/wet. I rolled up my sleeves, and made sure I had it over the plate vs my lap. It really didn't need a dipping sauce. It had some heat to it, and it built with each bite. But it was a good heat; tingly lips. Nothing on fire that made you pant or required milk. My coworker got the Cool Ranch Crunch wrap and hers was dry... and needed a dipping sauce for moisture. She used leftover queso and it was much better. Food came out in waves. Many staff helping out at the table with both bringing food out and clearing used dishes, empty glasses/ bottles. And no errors in the order. Great to see teamwork. To-go boxes were given to those in need and they looked like recycled paper/cardboard vs Styrofoam. And paper bags were given to the people with more than 1 to-go box. I would definitely return to try more items on the menu.

    Tried a new restaurant in the Roseville area for lunch with the hubby. I'm not sure if at all times it's a "seat yourself" type of place but it was when we were there. We chose a high top table with lovely seats with backs (yay!). You do have to use the QR code to order drinks and/or food. The Centro team checks on you every now and then and there is a sign you can change at your table that alerts the team that you're in need of something. Lots of TVs around as well and even a little section of toys, etc for kids to temporarily play with. We ordered the chips + trio to share. The queso is the bomb! Guac was great too. I also ordered the lunch taco platter and the hubby ordered the Centro Crunch with a dip lunch order. The Carne Asada taco was delish. While I wasn't that enthusiastic about the Carnitas en Adobo. :( Will look forward to trying new items when I come back!

    I was going to a movie at rosedale and a friend recommended this place for a small bite beforehand. Didnt make reservations, just walked in and got seated quickly and it was a friday night. Fun lighting, whole place had a party type of vibe. Server came over and gave us waters, but you actually do all the ordering from a qr code at the table. It was quick and easy to use. Ordered a few food items, and didnt take long to come out. Loved the tajin wings and tacos were pretty good. Overall good experience and would go again when in the area.

    Cherry margarita

    Happened to be driving by and decided to check them out. After explaining to the hubs that this was a Mexican (not Italian) restaurant, he was on board. The night we stopped in it was gorgeous outside, so we took advantage and sat on the patio. The patio is pretty big, but does face towards 36. I tried a cherry maragrita and the verde enchiladas. Both were great. Hubs had tacos with rice and beans and also seemed to enoy it. Our host was great. The service here is via QR code, but if you need assistance, there is a card you can turn over expressing that need. Would love to come back and try some of the appetizers and other cocktails.

    I've been to the Highland Park location plenty of times, but this was my first visit to Roseville and I was shocked at how busy it was! The Highland Park spot is fairly chill, so I wasn't exactly expecting it to be hopping, but the experience was still great. I love the QR code ordering and how you can keep ordering food if you want. I got chips & salsa plus one carnitas taco. The price for one taco was a bit steep at $5-$6, but the amount of meat on it made it totally worth it and it was really good! The restaurant itself has such a cool vibe, bright, colorful, and definitely the place to be for an afternoon happy hour. I love how laid back and casual the environment is.

    Mezcal Margarita & Chips and Salsa
    Tiana D.

    Beautiful and spacious interior with a good sized patio. Sat outside with a group of eight and a few kids. We were able to get a table on a Saturday afternoon no problem! We had the choice of table service or ordering from a QR code. Drinks and food came out quickly. I had the mezcal margarita and the Wahaka Flocka. The marg was great! Though overpriced in my opinion for being a tap cocktail. The Wahaka was also delicious though a bit sweet. The birria crunch is amazing - it was so full, I couldn't even finish it. The tajin wings were the winner though!! Looking forward to returning!

    Side Queso
    Jeremy S.

    I'm very impressed with centro. Good drinks, apps and entrees. The queso was delicious and tortilla chips were nicely fried. I had the burger which was super yummy with American cheese, I will definitely get that again, however the bun is nothing to write home about. Over all good job centro!!!!

    Braised Beef Taco
    Tori S.

    Chips and dips were great! The only thing was about 1/2 or the chips were broken/very small sizes. The guac and queso were soooo delish. The portion sizes I would say are great. With the taco combo, it states it comes with rice and beans (which it does), but it also comes with a lot of extra stuff on top (lettuce, pico, cheese, sour cream), which would have been nice to know, definitely a perk if you like to add that to your tacos, but I feel like it should be listed. I also didn't love the rice or beans. I am gluten free, and there were tons of options which was also great! They also have very attentive staff.

    Baja Shrimp Taco
    David M.

    After hearing rave reviews for a while, we finally decided to give this place a try. The ordering process is pretty casual--you can either place your order at the counter when you walk in or scan a QR code at the table to order digitally. I went with the shrimp taco, Cool Ranch Doritos wings, and yucca fries. The shrimp in the taco was flavorful, but unfortunately, the shell was hard and already falling apart when it arrived, making it tough to enjoy. The wings were just okay--not much of that Cool Ranch Doritos flavor came through, and they were a bit overcooked for my taste. The standout for me was definitely the yucca fries--crispy, well-seasoned, and cooked perfectly. Service was minimal. We were given one small cup of water and never offered a refill. Since there aren't servers consistently checking in after the food is dropped off, it felt a bit lacking on the hospitality front. Overall, while I've been to other spots that offer better quality for a lower price, I'd consider coming back if I'm nearby and craving those yucca fries--they were worth the visit.

    Birria Crunch
    Abigail S.

    The drinks and food was good but you order on your phone so you can't order just drinks and apps then food. You have to fully check out. I expected a sit down restaurant with a server. If I adjusted my expectations it would be great. The pina colada was perfect! Guac was very good and the birria Crunchwrap was good.

    We had a great time at Centro Roseville for lunch. Food was great, music was great, and our server Mo was great. Would definitely recommend.

    He Said: This place is more of a 4.5 star location. Taco…read moreLibre is located in a heavily trafficked place, so while the restaurant is easy to find, parking can be tough. The inside is clean and the walls proudly show off Mexican culture, which is cool. Food is ordered on kiosks, which is good if you know what you want, but if you do not, there is no one there to help-- you need to walk over to the kitchen area to ask. Food came out quickly, and there is a salsa bar! Pros: - Good food - Portion sizes are good Cons: - If there is a line, it can fell like lots of pressure to quickly order, which can be tough if it's your first time.

    Taco Libre has a couple of great locations throughout the metro. This location is one of my top 3…read morerestaurants for burritos in the Twin Cities. They offer a good variety of Mexican food that includes tacos, burritos, machetes, huaraches, torta, and more. I love their birria burrito and their shrimp volcano. One item I recommend to try is their mega birria which is 1/2 lb of birria meat smothered in shredded cheese, on a 18" corn tortilla with cilantro, onion, served with a cup of consume and side of limes. You can order at the kiosks and pick up your food within less than 10 minutes which makes a quick service. The restaurant has several tables you can sit at and nice music on to enjoy. Each Taco Libre has their own decorations and this is also one of my favorite with part of a wall full of jarritos bottles.
