The Grande Burrito will keep you full all day.

Are you a french toast or pancake person? It's almost impossible to choose at the Central Grill.

If you're lucky, Eggs Benedict will be on the specials menu when you stop in to give Central Grill a try.

When George and Alicia add a new special, it usually garners so many fans they can't take it off the menu.
