Editorial Reviews
Martin Brings Frank's Squid Noodles to Genoa Kitchen:
Prior to joining Genoa's staff, first as chef de cuisine and now as executive chef, Jake Martin worked at Seattle's acclaimed How to Cook a Wolf for owner and mentor Ethan Stowell. (Before his brief move to Seattle, Martin worked at ambitious — but now defunct — Portland spots Fenouil and Central.) It was at Central that Martin found one of his favorite noodle houses, Frank's in Northeast...
Uncle Dick's Deep-Fried Hot Dogs Calls it Quits:
The Old Town alley has lost its access to bacon-wrapped drunk food.

Owner Dustin Knox (also founder of SE cart favorite Perierra Creperie) announced the change last night, telling Eater that while no new home for Central has been...
Information from the business
Tucked in SW Ankeny's now car-less alleyway, behind the dark curtain, you'll find Central. While the main focus is on fine spirits, house infusions and craft libations...you will also find a select few options for beer drinkers and a small well-rounded wine list. From the kitchen comes seasonal ingredient forward dishes for meat lovers and vegetarians alike.
