We came here for lunch over the weekend. This location has been many different types of restaurants and most recently a sports bar. They've kept the banks of televisions, but completely redone the decor to reflect the Mexican heritage. There are large and colorful wall paintings including day of the dead representations. It feels bright and clean inside. We were warmly greeted on entering and shown to a booth. We had friendly service -- and I got to practice a bit of my Spanish. The menu is large and a number of items sounded appealing. They've only been open a short while and were not that busy when we came. We were served a basket of crisp chips and two salsas. To drink, my husband ordered a chilada. It was with your choice of brand of domestic beer. It was slightly spicy and nicely presented. For my lunch, I had their avocado salad with steak. It was a large bowl of greens with sliced steak and avocado pieces and chopped tomatoes. I chose their cilantro lime dressing which I really liked. My husband had two tostados with ground beef. He liked his food as well. I'm hoping this place is successful as it's convenient to our house, the food was good, the portions large, and the prices quite reasonable.
I went with a friend wanting to get birria tacos only to find out that's only Saturdays and Sundays. But we decided to try new things, she got the tacos and I got a mexican burrito. Not really our type of cuisine, so we didn't finish our meals. The appetizer chips were the best part. The server was pretty nice though.
Great destination for Taco Tuesday. Full bar, large parking area, delicious fillings. See you next Tuesday.
My wife and I have been wanting to try this fairly new location near the house. When we arrived we received a friendly welcome and offered our choice of a table or booth. We chose a booth with a good view of food as it was being delivered to diners. Immediately, a basket of tortilla chips and two sauces was brought to the table. The ambiance is very festive and rich with colorful murals. I ordered a Chelada, which is served in a huge glass with an attachment to accommodate your choice of beer. The glass is filled halfway with Chelada mix, rimmed with spicy salt, and the beer bottle is inverted through the holder and into the Chelada mix. Gravity mixes the beer into the glass as you drink. It was great and paired very well with the two tostadas with ground beef. My wife enjoyed her avocado salad with steak slices. Service was fast and friendly and we felt comfortable and full! Glad we stopped and discovered a great new neighborhood restaurant.
This is a medium-large sized restaurant located on the side of a big plaza in Greenacres. Parking may be difficult to find right in front of the restaurant, but there is plenty in the rest of the plaza. They have a decent size bar on the right side of the entrance, and a big dining room with modern furniture but typical Mexican colorful paintings on the walls. Since we live in the area, we were looking forward to their grand opening, and we came here one afternoon during the week to check their HH, but we found out that (unfortunately) they only run it for a few drinks. As soon as you sit they bring you tortilla chips with a couple of sauces, which were a little bland to be honest. The margarita was also just ok, but to be fair, I haven't found a place yet that makes great margaritas. We ordered tacos with chorizo and al pastor: I liked that they are "simple" (the filling consists of just meat, onions and cilantro - no cheeses or other stuff that doesn't have anything to do with authentic tacos), but the meats were just ok. Actually, the chorizo was almost tasteless. At the suggestion of our bartender (who was really friendly and helpful) we also ordered Chicken Tamales. The chicken was a little bit bland, but I never had tamales before, so I can't really judge them. Their portions are big and prices are decent, and we had decided to go back to them from time to time for HH on their Taco-Tuesday. I had also already decided to give them 3 stars on my review until... Cinco de Mayo happened. That day we stopped there for a Margarita on our way back home: it was still HH time and we were curious to see how they were celebrating the day and what specials they had planned. It was just almost 6:30pm, the restaurant was almost full (maybe that's why they were offering drinks in plastic glasses only?), nothing particular was going on, but they did run a "special" indeed: the HH had been cancelled "for the Cinco de Mayo only"! I won't question the reasons behind that business decision, but what really got me upset is that there was no sign about that change anywhere, the menu still had the HH days+prices on it (they could have crossed them - or done something similar to make people understand that there was no HH that day), and even when I ordered the drinks, I wasn't told about that. We only found out when we noticed that we were billed the full price ($10.99 per Margarita) instead of the HH price ($6.99) and reached out to the waitress thinking that it was an honest mistake. Yes, we could have "fought" those charges but... why bother and ruin a day? At the end we only "lost" $10 combined, but the restaurant lost 2 customers who were already planning to visit again.
Beautifully decorated inside with oil paintings all over the walls, full of colors and a good vibe, El Centenario is a recently opened Mexican-inspired restaurant in Greenacres. The food was okay in our experience, the meat used in tacos, including chorizo, was a bit tasteless, but that happened in 9 places out of 10 serving tacos in this area. Margaritas are the usual bar-premade margaritas, so on the light and sweet side; again, that's pretty much everywhere; if I want a margarita without the ready mix bottle, I make it at home. Service was pretty good in the two occasions we visited and prices are in range with similar establishments. They kind of upset me on Cinco de Mayo when we stopped for a couple of drinks in happy hour and then found out that they charged regular price; when I questioned that I was told that HH was canceled during Cinco de Mayo. That is fine, but they should have told us when we ordered, and even more than that they should have removed the board outside advertising for Happy Hour margarita. Other than that it's an excellent place to eat Mexican-inspired food, at reasonable prices and with good service.
Really good food and service. On this new Mexican restaurant. Awesome taco Tuesday deal and drink specials. We come here. Probably three times a month at least. Highly recommend.
The service was not the best. We had to wave our server down several times because she was busy huddled up chit chatting with the other servers. The food was typical Tex mex. Nothing special, but not horrible. The ambiance of the restaurant was just an average little place, quiet at the time we went which was a Sunday around 5:30-6pm
Went here on a Saturday with my sister n law who lives in the area ! So good ... we split a shredded chicken quesadilla and the fresh chips and salsa ! We had fantastic Paloma's made by a our bartender Gabby and we tried her mango jalapeño margarita.. which was awesome ! Great place , clean place , great drinks , great apps , great staff ! Go here !
Just tried it for the first time and we'll definitely be back! We are vegetarian so it can be hard to find options at Mexican restaurants but El Centenario had several options for us. I ordered the vehicle enchiladas and I was shocked!! The vegetables were fresh and not over cooked or goopy. My partner had the chili rellino and again the pepper was fresh & the cheese was real cheese. The corn tortillas were so fresh & good they might actually be house made but I forgot to ask. The rice was fluffy and not the standard "Mexican rice" you get at most places.
Food was okay . Drinks were large . Service was okay our waitress took a while to attend to us and the restaurant was empty. Interior was clean and nice .
The steak, peppers, and onions were very good. Everything was and portions are good, especially when you are hungry. Not busy, so parking out front was easy. Clean, nice, friendly place. We had plans, so no drinks other than water. This place will likely be our go-to Mex restaurant.
Si! I absolutely loved this Mexican Restaurant we came from Jupiter to do grocery shopping in the area and decided to stop by. This restaurant is in a shopping center it's very large, tons of TVs line the restaurant probably a good place to watch sports. We saw a stage so they likely have live music as well. We had some delicious food too. Service was great the dame who helped us was very attentive and nice. I would come back here absolutely. read more
The restaurant has lovely murals on the walls which create a great atmosphere. The drinks great and the margaritas impressive and served in a massive glass. We have the Birria tacos which are extremely filling. The service is fast and attentive. Overall a good local Mexican restaurant in Greenacres read more

I've gone 3 times before and have always gotten the carnitas which are delicious. The house made chips and salsa are really good and they come once you order no extra charge which is always so nice for restaurants to give that extra little bit of a gift even though they could charge for something people take for granted. Everything about the atmosphere is so authentic and artsy! The birria tacos only cost $13 for 4 tacos and the sauce! Such a great deal for this kind of taco. Everywhere else I've been charged $15/18 for 3 tacos. Overall, this restaurant is a perfect new hot spot for authentic tacos read more

I go to the gym across the street and happened to glance over and happen to see this Mexican restaurant and was excited to try it. So decided to go today. I can say that I am a good judge of Mexican food being that I've been to several Mexican restaurants and also my step mother cooked authentic Mexican food. I was excited to try this restaurant because it's near my house. The staff were super nice, welcoming and attentive, the art inside is beautiful. The chips and salsa were delicious. The Passion Fruit Margarita, OMG best! But the most important, which is the food, FAILED. The rice is not authentic Mexican rice, Jassmaine rice with looked like diced tomatoes, the refried beans were pink and taste from a can, the steak (asada) was chewy and wasn't cooked fully, the mole had a weird taste to it, the enchiladas, the tortilla defiantly frozen and warmed up. My husband ordered the chilaquiles, wasn't happy with it. We've had chilaquiles from other places in the area and taste better. I seen some Google reviews and I agree that I would defiantly recommend a new chef or being more authentic , I would hate to see a nice place like this go out of business. I recommend for chips and drinks. Goodluck. read more
