Bo Bites – Centrico

(Lyrics – J Geils Band – Centerfold)

Should we eat? Should we Yelp?
Should my reviews complete?
My Yelping Yelping reviews
Always make me write my beats

Whiskey drinks like it neat
Nothing should ever stain
The memory of my tacos
Could never cause me pain

Yelp I go as I’m searching for a taco restaurant
And there’s my Yelp review inside Hotel San Carlos

The drinks runs cold
My appetite has just been sold
My tacos at the Centrico
Tacos at the Centrico

I came with some friends on some late night bites.  So we sat at the bar and ordered a drink since it was just me.  

For food, we started with some guacamole and chips.  They serve it tableside too as our server was mashing everything together from avocados, tomatoes, onions, cilantro, and some peppers.  The chips were fried from flour tortilla shells cause they definitely had some solid crisp to them; you aren’t getting these at the stores.  The guacamole was smooth but had enough texture while the peppers provided and welcome kick of spice.

As for the entree, we shared their Taco de Asada.  It came with four street style tacos.  The beef was cooked to perfection while the salsa had a kick of chipotle along with the guacamole taquero provided some spicy flare but not too overpowering where I needed a sip of water every time.  

Overall, Centrico provided some traditional street bites in downtown Phoenix.  It’s a small restaurant, but packs a powerful punch and worth and drop-in – Enjoy!
