What we ordered: Prosciutto Di Parma Arugula Pizza (+ burrata) = 100000/10 FOOD: 9/10 Served hot, fresh, and made to order, this pizza truly hit the spot. The crust had those delicious wood-fired charred bits and was the perfect thickness, not too thin, not too thick. The burrata (worth the extra charge!) was rich and creamy, while the arugula added the perfect fresh, crunchy bite. Every ingredient worked so well together. I'm literally salivating as I type this! Paired with some good wine? Chef's kiss! SERVICE: 9/10 Every staff member we interacted with struck the perfect balance of being friendly and laid-back. We sat at the bar, where the bartender also served as our waiter. He was personable, kept up a great conversation, and was attentive without ever making us feel rushed, all while mixing drinks and taking care of other guests. AMBIANCE: 9/10 Spacious, clean, and incredibly inviting. I loved the relaxed atmosphere and all the train station-inspired decor throughout the restaurant. The large windows let in so much natural light that it's an even better place to sit back and enjoy a meal. I'd happily come back the next time I'm in the area.

The train was coming every 20 minutes or so, and it was very loud. Our party ordered the following: Pizzas - Margherita Pizza (4/5) - Prosciutto Pizza (5/5) - Beef Back Rib and Arugula Pizza (5/5) Sides - Mashed Potatoes (3/5) - Mac and Cheese (5/5) - Cornbread (3.5/5) - Arugula Salad (3/5) - Lemony Garlic Linguine with Prawns (5/5) The pizzas were served hot and fresh. Nice char on the crust, and not super doughy. For our Margherita Pizza specifically, it was a bit soggy/ floppy making it really hard to grab and eat. Other than that, the flavor was there. Might have been a one time thing, but would recommend getting this well done just in case. Of the 3 we ordered, the Beef Back Rib Pizza was my favorite! Great combination of flavors that complemented each other. Mashed Potatoes: A little too dry for my liking. Would recommend adding some black pepper to it. Mac and Cheese: Definitely hit the spot! It was nice and creamy, would definitely order it again! Jalapeno Cornbread: An interesting combination that just wasn't for me. If I come back, I may try it again to see if it grows on me. It was also on the drier side. Arugula Salad: There was A LOT of Parmesan cheese in the salad. I like parmesan, but this was pretty overwhelming. Lemony Garlic Linguine with Prawns: One of the best sides that we got. Noodles had a good chew to them, with a nice zest from the lemons. Very flavorful!

I was excited to learn they partner with The Butcher's Son for vegan mozzarella and meats. I've been a big fan of The Butcher's Son food for a while, and I love their mozzarella sticks, even though I usually don't like vegan cheese. I went with a medium 1/2 and 1/2 pizza: Vegan Meatzza and Vegan Buffalo Chicken. I also tried the Vegan Cannoli. The pizza was hot and ready when I arrived, and they sealed it with a 100% vegan sticker, which I thought was a nice touch. I really enjoyed both flavors! It's tough to pick a favorite between the two, but the pepperoni on the meatzza was delicious, and the buffalo and ranch combo on the buffalo chicken was tasty. Surprisingly, my favorite was the cannoli. Even though I usually prefer savory over sweet, the cannoli was amazing. I loved every bite, though I think adding chocolate chips to the filling would have made it even better. Overall, it was a 10 out of 10 experience! I can't wait to try other vegan pizza combos.

We always get the margherita pizza and when we want some protein, the meatballs are a good option. We have had some of their seasonal pizzas but the margherita is really tried and true. They also have a combo meat and cheese board (pick 2 of each), which is well worth it if you want a little bit of both, and the pairings that come with it. I always request the porchetta as one of my meat options. The staff is very attentive and the ambiance inside is kind of dark, moody and classy. They have a lovely bar but we prefer to sit outside on their patio. They do have heat lamps in case it gets chilly.

We were greeted at the door with a "happy anniversary!" and it was printed on our menu as well :) Small touches and personalization really do go a long way. I love the casual yet upscale vibe of the place, and my in-laws commented on what a great choice of restaurant it was! The noise level was just busy enough with white noise without it being overly noisy. Our waitress was so friendly without being overbearing, and timing was great (checked in enough, not too much). We got the Chef's Board 3-piece to start - had a great variety! My in-laws split the Pizza Margherita (crust was similar to what we had in Florence!), my mom and I got the Papardelle (mine was a bit overcooked, but I also love mine super al dente, so just a personal preference) and my husband's Toasted Semolina Ravioli was a little *too* al dente for his taste, so if we'd switched, it would've been perfect! My dad got the Top Sirloin that was very tender. For cocktails, I got the Amore Proibito which was like a gimlet with a kiwi cordial, yum! My husband got one of the featured negronis for Negroni Week! Overall, 4.5/5 stars Would come again for another special occasion!

Rosa is basically pepperoni pizza sprinkled with basil. You paid $2 extra for the basil. Stick with pepperoni next time. Hot Honey is basically. Pepperoni and sausage Pizza drizzled with honey. Not sure if the "hot" in the hot honey refer to spice or temperature. But, boy, the combo work. Would love to hear how this came together. The sweetness of the honey just elevated the salty pepperoni and sausage! Excellent. Caprese Salad. This was good also. Just expensive for 5 slices of mozzarella. $12.

Slices are roughly $8-9, which is high for the quality of the slices.

We've also ordered their large pizzas to go in the past, and those have been just as satisfying. We used one of their stamp cards for a free drink, and the guy at the counter kindly let me choose between a fountain drink or a bottled one (I went with the bottle--just tastes better!). My nephew has a special connection to this place--his kindergarten class once came here to make their own pizzas, and he still talks about it. It's really great to see that kind of community involvement. He absolutely loves the pizza here, and it's easy to see why. We also found ourselves curious about the surfboard--would love to know the story behind it!

Happy mode. They have slice, 12 inch to kingkong size of 24 inch. It is not that large place but has indoor seating. It was bit warm inside. The worker was very friendly and very helpful. There are plenty topping you can choose from and I chose chicken pesto based on recommendation from the worker and it was a right choice. It took a while for the pizza to be ready and I am surprised to see the size of the slice. It is a generous size. The pizza was so yummy and I love thin pizza. Will stop by again for other topping.

It's a bit unassuming from the outside but totally fine to dine in. The person that helped us at the counter was nice! A slice was like $7.00 or so but they were HUGE. I had to use a fork and knife (which was kind of useless because the plastic ones they give you are a bit too weak for these large pizzas). I saved some for later and it reheated nicely. Mine was the Greek salad pizza since it was the only one that was obviously white pizza. I liked it! It tasted fresh and I liked the flavor. The dough was quite chewy at parts and there was a nice crunch to the crust. I did think there was too much crust at times (as in the sauce should have extended further out) but it was still edible. I would come back!

The day of the party, the delivery driver called upon arrival right on time and when we opened the pizza, we were so excited to see the folks at Mountain Mikes knocked my request out of the park. It was incredible. It was one of the highlights of the party. Everyone was super intrigued and the kids were so excited to see a Pokeball Pizza!

We really enjoyed being able to walk around the beautiful downtown area before and after dinner. When we first looked at the menu, the three of us weren't quite sure what to expect. We were in the mood for something a little more "meaty," and Centro seemed to be more about simple, homestyle Italian food with quality ingredients. We even wondered if we were going to leave full. We were completely wrong! Everything was DELICIOUS, and we left very satisfied. We had the Centro Chopped Salad with romaine, artichoke hearts, cherry tomatoes, garbanzo beans, red onion, salami, pepperoncini, provolone, and lemon mustard vinaigrette. So fresh and flavorful! We also had a wood-fired pizza with pepperoni, and the dough was amazing -- you can really taste the difference in a good wood-fired crust. We also tried the rigatoni pasta, which rounded out the meal perfectly. What impressed us most was the combination of quality, simplicity, and value. The prices were very reasonable for the quality of the food, and the service was excellent as well. Centro Pizza was a wonderful surprise and a great ending to our Labor Day weekend. Sometimes simple Italian food done really well is exactly what you need. We would definitely come back the next time we're in Burlingame!

The server was kind and gave me his recommendation of which pie he would get. I think it was something that I wouldn't really like so I ended up getting something else. I felt bad after I went out of my way to ask but I appreciated his choice. I decided on getting the small pepperoni pie. The wait time was between 15 and 25 minutes so I decided to go for a quick drive and come back. There are seats if you want to dine in but I decided to eat it fresh at home since I'm not too far. The pizza was delicious. It didn't have a crazy cheese pull but the was good balance between the sauce and cheese. There was no excess oil when folding the pizza and the cheese didn't slide off so bonus points there. My biggest issue is price. $18 for a small pizza is kind of ridiculous. It's about the size of a Pizza Hut individual pie so that was a bit surprising for me. At the same time though, I guess you have to consider the area. I'll have to see if you get more value when you size up your pizza next time. If so, I would probably lean towards that route. Good pizza overall.
