California Grill or Citricos - which would you choose?

[myhat]

If you only had time to enjoy one Signature Restaurant at a MK resort which would you choose:

California Grill and watch Wishes

Citricos and go and watch the Electrical Pageant after the meal from the beach.

Which restaurant serves the better food? Which is more relaxing?

Will probably see Wishes anyway when we go to MK but will not have time or energy to see Electrical Pageant unless we combine it with the special evening out (but maybe the EP is no big deal??)

Never been to Citricos but have done CG and Wishes a couple times and in my opinion it'd be hard to beat. Food is good, service is great and the view of Wishes is (in the words of my kids) very cool.

We feel that the food and service were better at the California Grill.

We liked the food and atmosphere better at Citricos..much more relaxing....you can also view wishes from the boat dock!

California Grill ONLY during the fireworks over Magic Kingdom. That is SUCH an amazing thing...It is an unforgettable experience.

I would eat at (and have many times) cali grill at any time...the fireworks is just a bonus. The food and wine is the tru star here.

Citricos is just kind of...meh....another overpriced hotel food joint. Nothing bad, but nothing that tsands out. The last straw was when we were there in March last year. I ordered an aptizer of gulf shrimp. It said $12.00 on the menure. When it came out, there were 4 yes FOUR medium sized shrimp on a plate with suace, a lemmon wedge and a whole bunch of garnish.

So, CG wins in my book.
