Citricos or Narcoossee's

[bunnicula]

My husband and I are going to Disney in October, and are choosing between dinner at Citricos and Narcoossee's. We've never been to either one and I can't figure out if there's much of a difference between them / why I should chose either one. The menu at Citricos is a little more appealing because I'm not much of a seafood eater, but I've heard great things about the atmosphere at Narcoossee's.

Our favorite restaurants on site are Jiko, Sanaa and California Grill. Didn't care for Artist Point, partly because it felt like any other hotel restaurant. Any suggestions, or reasons to choose one over the other, would be really appreciated!

FYI, you'll get more responses on the restaurant board. Try re-posting over there.

But to answer the question, Citricos is much better than Narcoosee's. The food and service at Citricos are outstanding. Narcoossee's was just ok for me.
The atmosphere at Citricos is a little more elegant, more romantic, and much quieter.

I haven't been to Citricos, but we loved our meals at Narccoossee's. I had the steak & lob tail. It was yummy. We timed it so we could watch Wishes. They dim the lights, and pipe in the music, most people go out to the veranda to watch.

I have been to both and enjoyed both. Citricos has more of an elegant quiet setting. The decor and ambiance are very romantic. Narcooses is great but a bit more relaxed. You can see the fireworks from Citricos but they don't pipe music (you also dont have a sudden mob of people stroll over just to watch). I would say Citricos would be the better choice for you.

We have been to both and we really loved Citricos. Great food, service and atmosphere. Narcoosees was just okay.

Citricos is our all time favorite. We have always had great food and outstanding service.

We have been to Narcoossee's once and did not go back last year. It was just okay-the server did not enter my appetizer and it came out when my parents were done eating. The atmosphere was rather bland-with a concrete floor. The food was okay, nothing really stood out. We are giving Narcoossee's another try this year, so it better be good

We went to both places in August and December 2009.

Citricos is much better.

We were VERY disappointed in our Narcoossee's dinner in December so much so that we will not be returning there next week when we're staying at the Grand Flordian.
