I have to give the exact opposite review of that below. After an entirely unsatisfactory evening at Rendezvous the first thing I thought was "I should have gone to Central Kitchen." I have never had a dissapointing meal here. The cheese plates are always an option and the mussels are excellent. I loved the pork tenderloin and the seared halibut when they were options. The menu, though small, is inventive and changes often. It can be expensive but the prices match the meals. The wine list is definitely not your usual "house red" and the staff can readily suggest something if you are less than a connoisseur. Inside it is small and dark but not stuffy. It's very relaxed and warm and it actually provides a sense of closeness. Almost like you're out dining with your neighbors. I've had to wait a few times for a table but never for long. It's a great place for a low key evening out with a few close friends.
Pros: Another reason for the greatness of Central Sq
Cons: Very small. Not good for large groups.
