The fast-casual half of Northeast Minneapolis’ hottest new duo of Mexican restaurants, Centro is the coolest new taco spot in town. Outside, colorful murals and a neon sign announce its presence, and inside, the space is as bright as the tropical cocktails being poured behind the restaurant’s central bar. A collection of yellow Plexiglass-coated salvaged doors makes a bold décor statement over the order counter, and a 10-foot yarn cross-stitch art piece brings even more color to the industrial-inspired space. Seating groupings, including high-top tables and banquettes, accommodate everyone who wants to pop in for tacos. The branding materials, also created by Shea, is inspired by the Aztec myth “Centzon Totochtin,” about a group of divine rabbits who know how to party.
