About
Located in Downtown Crossing, Central Bistro is a neighborhood bistro that brings the flavors of France to the heart of Boston.
Perched on the second floor with windows overlooking Summer Street, Central Bistro is perfectly suited for just about any occasion - a quick pre-theater bite to eat, a romantic dinner or a business lunch. With its numerous private dining options, the restaurant can even accommodate corporate functions or wedding receptions.
The menu features classic French bistro dishes alongside some more modern interpretations. And in true bistro tradition, the reasonably priced cuisine is served in an elegantly outfitted dining room that somehow still feels comfortable and relaxed.
