La Central by Mario Pagán

La Central pays homage to a fundamental emblem of Puerto Rico’s history: “la caña de azúcar” through the creative use of sugarcane & rum in its dishes.

The heat of the charcoal grill is palpable from the dining room in this open kitchen concept, where guests can enjoy a decadent tomahawk steak or a crispy branzino cooked to perfection over an open flame. La Central’s entrées are sizable, meant to be shared among friends or family with cocktails or a bottle of wine from the sommelier’s selection.

With multiple seating areas for private events, La Central by Mario Pagan offers unique experiences catered to any event, from business lunch or dinner meetings to celebratory evening dinners. We catered to intimate gatherings up to 40 people seating at our private dining room located on our second floor to cocktail events at our bar lounge area up to 20 guests. Outdoor areas overlooking La Plaza at T-Mobile District are also available for small gatherings of 30 guests.

See and don’t be seen from the discrete walls of the cigar room, offering unparalleled views of the main dining room area. Discreetly enjoy a glass of aged rum or light a cigar from our curated, hand-rolled selection; in essence, a cigar aficionado’s dream comes true at this exclusive dining experience for groups of 12ppl.

Chef Mario Pagán’s appetite for new techniques while staying true to Puerto Rico’s heritage proves that an upscale cuisine combined with fire is a timeless match worthy of your palate where Flavor Meets Fire!
