OVERVIEW
In 2005, Drew Nieporent replaced the belly dancers and Moroccan atmosphere at his Middle Eastern restaurant Layla with this Mexican eatery. Centrico serves American-influenced Mexican cuisine from chef Aarón Sanchez in the Pulice Williams-designed space. The 90-seat dining room has 15-foot ceilings and wall-to-wall windows and is decorated with warm colors, bamboo columns, and a hammered zinc bar. A wraparound patio seats 60.
