This is the second Thanksgiving we have spent at Citron. The food and service are excellent. My only comment is that I got the turkey and was surprised to get the giblet and liver, it's not something I would expect on such a pricey meal. Luckily, I happen to like those parts, had my dining companion gotten them, it would have been a problem. Having said that, everything was really delicious. I overstuffed myself because I couldn't stop eating the apple cake.

Wow, Everything was incredible. Food was top notch, cooked perfectly, with high quality ingredients. Drinks were perfect, and the atmosphere was exceptional. 5 stars all around. Can't wait to go back.

Went to Citron for date night and had the New York strip steak and Crab cake, both were delicious! The ambiance was amazing, perfect for a relaxing evening. The service was great, attentive without being overbearing. It is a little on the pricey side, but honestly worth it for the quality and overall experience. A really nice night out — I'd definitely go back!

Two guest. We were greeted by a hostess, who was very pleasant; she walked us through the restaurant and bar, to experience the noise level between the restaurant and bar. The restaurant had very low levels of noise and the bar was slightly louder; however in both locations, you can have an intimate conversation without yelling. We ordered an appetizer (asparagus and cauliflower), entrees (salmon and mushrooms ravioli) and dessert (crème Brûlée and vanilla cheesecake). The app came to the table presented well and warm. The taste was tangy and acidic. A little salt and extra parm makes it better. The salmon was presented well and warm; it was adequately seared (Ask for beurre blanc sauce). The string beans were plain and unseasoned, but the rice pilaf was seasoned well. The ravioli was overcooked and presented very poorly. The broccolini was also over cooked and unseasoned. Both desserts were average (nothing exciting), but tasty. We did not have any cocktail's. Nickki, our server was excellent; polite and inviting and on point. We never needed anything! If you love great service and want to have dinner in a stunning atmosphere, then Citron is the place. The food is good and has the potential to be great.

Good experience, would've been better had the resurface the birthday guest dessert. 1st time a restaurant didn't offer it.

Went on a Wednesday at 6 pm. Sat in bar area which was not very crowded except for 6 ladies at the bar who sometimes could be alittle loud. Also owner was meeting with a future event client. Music in the background. Food was top notch as usual. Waiter could have been more attentive. Restaurant is always high end looking. Overall it was a good experience for a casual weekday night.
Brandon
It is a bit pricey but worth! Food was very high quality, and all the staff were very polite and kind. We brought 2 kids (13YO and 9YO) for casual weekend dinner, and kids loved the food, too.

Outstanding dinner. Every course was delicious. Our server, John, did a great job. Worth the money for a very special evening.

The menu used to be excellent but it is now very heavy and rich with creamy sauces. The Chilean Sea Bass was some of the worst I've ever had. The sushi is ok but it's not that designer it special based on what we get at our sushi places. I like Citron for the outdoor patio . I don't like spending $62 for a terrible fish dish if it were great that would be fine. I think a smaller bar should be added to the patio so people could drink and have small apps with the view

Every time my husband and I come here, we have an amazing experience! The owner always takes the time to check on us personally, which really makes us feel welcome. The food and service are top-notch — honestly some of the best you'll find anywhere. It's easily on par with great spots we've been to in LA and New York. Highly recommend this place for a true 10/10 dining experience!
I celebrated my girlfriend's birthday at Citron and the entire experience was outstanding. We were seated outside with a beautiful waterfront view, and the atmosphere was serene and elegant. The food was incredible—she had the lamb shank with herb risotto, which was rich and perfectly cooked. I ordered the 16 oz French cut cowboy steak and it was one of the best I've had. Portions were generous and everything was beautifully presented. Our server, Jonathan, was warm, conversational, and made sure everything went smoothly throughout the night. The restaurant was very clean and well-kept. Watching wildlife near the water added a unique, peaceful touch to the evening. Highly recommended for a romantic dinner or any special occasion. We'll definitely be back!

Me and my wife came to celebrate our 11 year anniversary and the staff were incredibly welcoming and would remember to recite throughout the night congratulation our marriage together. Our waitress Nicky was very kind and articulated very clearly menu items, suggestions, and even let us just soak in the time and view from our table. It is a fancy, glimmering, elegant restaurant with a lot of choices and top dress code. We enjoyed every part of our dinner and our cheesecake with congratulations and a candle was a wonderful topping at the end. We would definitely recommend and would eat there again.

Being that Citron is advertised as a high-end restaurant; I was surprised that there was no bread service and that tables were not dressed with linens. Also, we had a long gap between receiving our appetizers and our meal. My husband's steak was very good, but my lamb chops were chewy. I expected them to be very tender. However, the server was delightful and the location (lakeview) is spectacular. I would definitely return for drinks and appetizers. The decor and food were not on par with other high-end MD restaurants that my husband and I have been to. Not sure that I would recommend.

My wife and I had a date night last evening and we sat lake side, which was breathtaking. We started with the Mussels app, inwhich they were far more cultivating than any other known seafood establishment we've tasted. She ordered the Jumbo Lump Crabcake entree, which was full of lump crabmeat, with no shells. I ordered the Sea Scallops, and there again very pleased with their tenderness and elegant taste. Then there was our server Jonathan, he was very personable and attentive to us. We were very satisfied with his service and our evening. We will be back very soon!

It was a very slow night with only 3 tables . The service was great Jonathon took great care of us and the owner treated us to a great dessert wine. The food on the other hand was extremely overpriced and I hate to say but it was horrible. The wedge salad was not really put together and the bacon was in strips and cold. Two of us ordered the filets and it just wasn't good . The bousin sauce was thick and cold . My son ordered lamb that was definitely old and my daughter ordered lobster orzo that had old claw meat in the orzo and it was definitely a reheated item with a fresh half lobster tail on top. After the first bite she couldn't eat it cause the orzo tasted fishy. We spent over $600 and I won't be back . Very disappointed that this was a bday event. I will say that the service was great tho so it was hard to give a negative review. Just wasn't worth the money .
