Ordered the Tofu Gnocchi. It was good, though not great; not bland as others have said. Not tons of vegan options.

Vegan options - Edit
Grateful for them offering vegan options. The gnocchi as been really really good a couple of times I have eaten it and quite bland some of the other times I’ve been, the vegan pizza is good but I would ask for it with less vegan cheese (when I got it they put way too much on)

That gnocchi is bland - Edit
Lots of reviewers are touting the gnocchi. I mean, it's OK, but nothing to rave about. It's quite bland and I added a lot of salt and pepper. I wish Centro would add more vegan options. It's not that difficult to make pasta with veggie, marinara, or nut-based cream sauce. But I will likely return anyway, because I work in DT Des Moines, and Centro is convenient.
Read morePros: Friendly, At least a couple of vegan options, fast
Cons: lackluster flavor, not enough variety

Had the vegan tofu gnocchi with red sauce and Brussels sprouts. Both were fantastic. The waitress was very friendly and pleasant about my requests for no cheese. Great experience.

Very Good, Limited Menu - Edit
The gnocchi was as good as claimed. Upscale, but not overly expensive. I hope that they will expand the vegan selections. But I would also order the gnocchi again.

Pros: The limited vegan choices don't rule out visiting., What they do have for vegans is good., Not as expensive as expected.
Cons: Limited menu.

wow - Edit
I'm sitting here at centro drooling over my plate of tofu gnocchi. There are not words, I've easily got a new after work spot for veg fare. So tasty!!

Great for a date night! - Edit
Really nice for a fancy meal - the servers are very helpful. The tofu gnocchi is delicious, and the last time we went, they made us a special vegan brussels sprout appetizer and offered us fresh sorbet for dessert.
