I’m going to call this place The House of Smiles!! Before we stepped inside a gentleman welcomed us on the sidewalk with a huge smile on his face. He took us inside to be seated and introduced us to another smiling face. She took us to our table. Then Joan came to our table side with a big smile. I genuinely think that all those smiles were because they knew we were in for a treat! First they sat down a bottle of water, fresh bread made in house, their already mixed dipping sauce. Okurrr! I ordered the Butternut Squash Soup. Oh my sweet Lord it’s very delicious!! Then the calamari with tomatoes, a sauce drizzled over them and a lemon wedge on the side should win a prize. It was cooked perfectly. They are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. NOT RUBBERY AT ALL! Even the Charred Edamame had a sauce on it like I’ve never had before. They didn’t just throw some salt on it. The yummy Pappardelle pasta was magnificent. They have a nice variety of different salads. Yes, that was scrumptious too! I love the ambiance. The restaurant is large enough to seat parties and still have room to seat other people. I didn’t feel crowded. They have a bar with several televisions. They had sports and a few other things showing on the TV’s. Joan gets 100 stars from me! Thank you. We will be back.

Really disappointing experience, it took literally over an hour to get our food and drinks while everyone around us who ordered far after us got their drinks/food.

We have been going to Citrus City Grille for over a decade. We love the food (brunch is AMAZING) and the drinks are incredible. We have never had a problem getting a table. The staff always try and accommodate if at all possible. Sometimes its great just sitting at the bar and eating. However, our favorite is sitting at their patio. The best part about the outside seating is you can bring your dog. :) They are super friendly about it and you feel like you are in the heart of the circle watching it all go by you as you eat. It really is the perfect location. We highly recommend trying Citrus City for dinner (or brunch). The Chilean sea bass is by far my favorite hands down. Bon Appetit!

We stopped by for a quick happy hour visit. We sat at the bar and had a nice chat with the bar tenders. They have a nice HH menu, worth checking out! We especially loved the Smoke and Ash drink $10. We also had the filet mignon skewers $10, 4 meaty skewers. It’s a great way to enjoy HH food without all the carbs!

Went for the first time on a business dinner and everything was amazing! Luckily I was hungry because the surf and turf was huge and delicious, highly recommended.

Great ambiance and food. Service was a bit slow but it took forever for our group to show up so they probably just got tired of checking on us.

We enjoyed this restaurant in the Orange Circle. I had a lunch special for $15, a delicious Greek style wrap with filet mignon. It was so filling I only ate half and brought the other portion home. We were seated by the window and they have outdoor patio seating too.
I've been here once before, but decided to go during one of their weekend brunch on a Sunday. I was pleasantly surprised, easy to get seated, not too crowded. Good selection of food, they had a buffet style brunch. Also if you wanted you can ask for champagne for an added charge. It's $65-$70 per person for brunch. Not terribly expensive but a little pricey, still worth it. Clean restroom and clean establishment. Fast and friendly staff, very attentive. Definitely will be back

First time here. Very nice menu at reasonable prices. I ordered the Tomahawk Chicken thinking a tomahawk was pretty big. Well this chicken was a dwarf. One leg and a partial thigh. Well seasoned but very small. Cornish game hen? Oh well we tried. The French dip was very tough meat.

Went here for brunch with my beautiful wife. We were seated, and we're not acknowledged for over 20mins. Ordered drinks, they took 25min to get to us. Finally was asked what we wanted to eat, and food took literally 30mins more. So far, 75mins taken up out of the 90min you can done for, just waiting for our orders. Food was not good. Server never checked on us
Ordered another round of drinks and were told we were approaching the 90min table limit. Didn't care. Drinks took another 25mins
Not sure if our server was terrible or all the servers are terrible but the food wasn't good, the service was the worst I seen. Waste of 100 bucks. My wife asked for ketchup. Took 8mins
I will advise everyone to stay away at this point. Again, service was the WORST and food was bad. Jack in the box is better quality.

We sat for 20 minutes wondering why no one approached us. Servers kept on passing by but never stopped. Finally someone said has your server come to check on you? We said no so finally someone came over. It wasn't busy quite yet so it felt so ignored. Even though where we were sitting was right next to the bar! Food was amazing so that kinda made up for the not so desired service experience.
