At a glance
Centro Caribbean is a Caribbean restaurant and bar on Ankerstrasse in Zurich, with a compact setting and a focus on gourmet cooking. The concept brings Caribbean flavours, colours and culinary traditions to the table, pairing food with an inviting atmosphere shaped by the culture and spirit of the region.
Meat is one of the restaurant’s main features, alongside a selection of Caribbean dishes designed for sharing. The menu reflects a style of cooking that places flavour and quality at the centre, with fresh ingredients used in dishes intended to be enjoyed communally. The approach suits diners looking for a meal that feels social rather than formal, while still retaining a gourmet character.
The restaurant’s size gives Centro Caribbean an intimate setting. The interior is described as small and attractive, with a welcoming character that supports relaxed meals, shared plates and conversation. The overall style connects food with stories of Caribbean joy, music and tradition, creating a setting that feels distinct from a conventional European restaurant.
Centro Caribbean also operates as a cocktail bar, making it suitable for an evening centred on drinks as well as for a full meal. The bar complements the kitchen with cocktails created to match the restaurant’s Caribbean identity. Diners can therefore choose between a meal, a drink-led visit or a combination of both.
The restaurant suits diners interested in Caribbean cuisine, meat-focused dishes and a convivial sharing style. It can also work for occasions where food, cocktails and atmosphere all play a part. Reservations are available online and by phone, which is useful for planned visits to the compact venue.
