What People Are Saying About Centanni Llc

In Short – The decor is elegant and warm: Handsome, tall cocktail tables, art-deco prints, a stunning baby grand piano and twinkling candles all around give this classic nightclub a sophisticated glow. Crowds of stylish 30- and 40-somethings divide their time between the intimate lounge up front and the main bar and dance floor in back. The extensive wine list is excellent and there are also more than 25 different martinis from which to choose.
The Worst
by ascott7 at Citysearch
The staff was extremely rude... the place was dead..... I agree with the last poster. Times are too tough right now to spend money at a place like this. When I find the time to go out I like to be greeted and treated equally by the staff of the places I choose. I did not feel like they provided a comfortable or fun atmosphere. I actually left after I overheard one of the staff memebers talking about some oher customers in a not so nice wayand felt compelled to write this review which I really do not do often. Anyway save your time money for somewhere with less attitude-
- Pros: located close to other bars
- Cons: the service,
Rude staff

The staff at Centanni is a joke. They are unwelcoming and rude. this place was empty for the first two hours I was there.... I should have left and taken the emptiness as a warning. However, I stayed and I have never regretted anything more.... the staff was so rude about everything and when i asked why I was geting short rude service ( like having to walk up and ask for a drink when I reserved a table, which by the way is unecessary reserving a table means you will pay more for the same thing as someone who walks in) the place is not busy enough to need a reservation.... anyway they told me that someone like myself would be better suited on brady street..... I simply laughed as I have a degree from UCLA and am a practicing family doctor.. I appreciated that Angela felt she was above me and suggested some other places for me to go ... especially since I will be going to those other places and anywhere else in Milwaukee that is not Centanni . She should be fired as I am pretty sure telling customers you don't care if they come back is bad for business I hope the owner thinks differently
- Cons: Pretentious attitude
Prententious and boring

Centanni is a upscale piano bar in the third ward I had heard a lot of good things, however when I went there for so called ladies night last week it was a complete joke. I made reservations to have a table. My reservation was taken and that was it. I was not told anything about the extra fees and hassle I was going to have to deal with. when I arrived for "ladies night" the place was dead I let them kno I had a reservation and they said ok and let me pick any of the empty tables... the bar stayed empty until i was getting ready to leave with my party of seven at about midnight and that's when the bill came they had put everythign one one card " for my convenience" when i told her that wasn't convenient for me she said well it makes it easier ( for who me or the waitress) then I noticed the 33% gratuity that had been added on..... I am guessing that was for the waitress who was working so hard to deal with all of our tabs..... ( oh thats right she didn't do anything) I was left to split up the bill amongst everyone and pay her 33% when I mentioned to the manager I felt that I should have been told and I did not think that just springing this on the customer was very good business she called myself and out party a joke and asked us never to make reservations again. I said I wouldn't as the place was dead and reservations seemed unecessary she then told me we didn't spend enough money ( 190.00) to really make her worry if we didn't come back......... It was a horrible experience and I have never felt so bullied by a restaurant. I will never go back.
- Cons: horrible customer service
