Citrin Restaurant offers molecular gastronomy cuisine, featuring delicious food with high-end prices and small portions. The service is generally good, with some reviewers noting exceptional accommodation and well-trained staff, though there have been inconsistencies in the dining experience. The restaurant showcases exceptionally creative dishes prepared with superior ingredients, particularly in their tasting menu. Standout dishes include the Dirty Chicken for two, which is flavorful and perfectly prepared, and the Lobster Bolognese, a signature dish that has remained unchanged for 25 years. The back patio seating provides a lovely outdoor dining experience, while the bar area is lively and offers a version of happy hour called "Glass off," allowing guests to try various dishes without committing to a full tasting menu. While some diners appreciate the attention to detail and presentation, others feel that the dining area is average and that certain dishes do not fully meet the expectations of a Michelin-starred restaurant, particularly regarding plating and price points. Overall, Citrin is a place where the service shines, but the food quality may vary, making it a good option for special occasions.
