Second Guessing Citricos. Input?

[joanjett1976]

Hey everyone!

I thought I would try Citricos on this upcoming trip but am now second guessing my choice. I've been reading some not so fantastic reviews and am considering switching to our old favorite, The California Grill. Or is Narcoossee's better?
We'll be on the Free Dining Plan and this is our 2 credit dinner on our last park day, money is not of concern.

We are two adults who enjoy fine dining, served in not so big portions. Here's our fave WDW restaurants to give you an idea of our tastes:
1-California Grill
2-Flying Fish
3-Le Cellier
4-Artist Point
5-Jiko

Feedback?

Thanks

As with all restaurants at WDW, some people like it and some peple don't. There was a thread earlier today with many positve reviews about Citrico's. I am in that camp, as Citrico's is one of my top 5 at WDW (others are Jiko, Artist Point, Yachtsman Steakhouse and Flying Fish). It is a beautiful space, with interesting food and great service. The wine list is not all I might hope that it would be, but it is still a wonderful restaurant.

Depending on exactly when you're going, Citricos is serving lunch for only 1 TS credit, while 1900 Park Faire is closed. It's the GFC menu. I booked it so I could see what Citricos looked like inside and only use 1 credit.

I'm in total agreement with madalex. Citricos is going to appeal to some more than others. FWIW, I've been to both Citrocos and Artist Point and it is a real *tie* between the two. Each one has something about them that I love.

My mom has been to Cali Grill, Artist Point, Citricos, and Flying Fish and she prefers Citricos. She loves the Veal Shank and Citricos, the atmosphere, and the fact that you can get a little bit of everything there. (Shrimp appetizer, veal shank dinner, great wine).

There is nothing "wrong" with Citricos, it's really going to come down to how well you like their choices of entrees.

Considering that list of restaurants that you like, Citrico's will fit in quite nicely. We've been there a # of times and are going back in December.
