Citricos Reviews, Please

[Anim8ed]

Just looking to hear about your experiences at Citricos, good or bad. I haven't had much luck in finding reviews on it and we're tempted by the menu, especially the cocktails.

Absolutely FABULOUS! Each tiem we've eaten there it's been better than the last. This is one of our two or three favorites at WDW, on par with Jiko and the California Grill. Actually, better than the CG.

The best restaurant in WDW. Ducklie is right: every time we ate it's better than the last visit. Argubly even better is the first-rate service.

I love the place. It is now my favorite restaurant, passing Artist Pt. and Flying Fish.

I could not agree more. Much better than Cal Grill. Food at Citricos is fabulous, wine list is great and service is wonderful. And since you can barely see the fireworks from the restaurant, it doesn't have crowd and "people lingering" issues that one faces at CG.

We eat at Citricos most times we go; it is the 'special' meal we enjoy, last time made even more special because my work had offered to pay for a special meal as a thnak you for a project I had just successfully completed!

We find the service great and, for me as a Veggie, there is always a good options available.

The last time we visited (November 2004) the usual Chef was not there (hospital) and the food was not quite as sophisticated as usual - more 'rustic' - but still excellant and our Server was the bext ever.

We always enjoy a Cirtus infused Vodka as an early appetiser - really sets the mood!

So - recommend definately!

We ate at Citrico's in November and enjoyed it. The food was good, the atmosphere was quiet, my favorite was the sorbet trio for dessert. Only problem I had was that this was towards the end of our trip and our 2nd night of the Platinum Plan - I didn't want to eat anymore I wanted to go to MK!!! Wishes started just before dessert and we were right by the window facing it, so myself and every kid in the restaurant had our noses to the glass

I ate at Citricos last year and really enjoyed it. The appatizers in particular were fantastic. Our table shared the mushroom ravioli and the grilled shrimp and they were outstanding. The service was quite good and the dining room has a very nice atmosphere to it.

The best-kept secret at WDW. A better dining experience than Calif. Grill, and doesn't cost as much. The little delegation loved it, and the staff was exceptional.

Definitely beats out the CG, on service, decor, and the food. Highly recommend! On another note, FF used to be one of our favorites, but after being their last week it dropped waaaaaay down! Every aspect of the evening had deteriorated. But on a happier note, AP had one of the best meals and certainly the best service I have EVER had at Disney.. Always liked the restaurant, but last weeks experience was really tops!

WOW!!!!

I am stunned by the raving reviews! I couldn't find anything on the boards as most people post about AP, CA Grill, and V&A's.

Thanks for all of the info! Now, the next question -- Anyone have any recommendations for what to order?

I'm sure Uncle Romulus will have the best ersponse. THe pork is incredible. I've had the filet and the chicken, both were fabulous!
