The waiting for food took forever, the dj music was to loud. Nothing but instrumentals songs no voice. Whatever you do don't order corn ribs. It smells like cheddar cheesie feet. Taco was small. The plates was tinny.
An excellent brunch experience. The food, the drinks, the service, and the DJ, amazing. It’s also a beautiful restaurant. Will be coming back for sure!

My friend and i arrived in the afternoon. Empty. Waiter sat us at an awkward corner table. Since it was completely empty we moved to a 4 seat table. The waitress comes back and asked if we are waiting for someone else. I reply “no, we wanted to move over because it was too tight at the 2 seater” She replied “ okay well if a party of 4 comes I’ll have to move you”. Mind you again it was empty! Very unnecessary comment & terrible energy. Wouldn’t come again. 👎🏻

I have been coming to Citrico for 3 years now and I have never left the place without a smile in my face. Everyone is absolutely fantastic! Big shoutouts to Andrea, Paula, and Diego, always making my parents and I feel welcomed. Will continue to recommend this place to everyone I know; keep up the good work Citrico staff !

Really solid Mexican food, primarily featuring tacos. The nachos are a huge portion and perfect for sharing with barely any naked chips. I really enjoyed the corn ribs appetizer. The carnitas tacos were refreshing and tasty with an excellent soft shell.

High end Mexican Tulum style experience in the heart of queens New York. Every dish was incredibly flavorful and delicious. Definitely recommend such a hidden gem.

I had an amazing experience here last night. The ambience was cozy and perfect for a relaxing Sunday. I’m 7.5 months pregnant, and I really appreciated the full mocktail menu — it made me feel included and taken care of, which is rare and so thoughtful.
The food was excellent. I especially loved the corn ribs, flautas de pollo, the queso birria taco, and the Coca-Cola carnitas taco — everything was flavorful and well-prepared.
I’ll definitely be coming back regularly!

We came on Sunday morning with family. They gave us a table — we were three people and spent around $400, plus we tipped well. Then they kicked us out because the table was supposedly reserved for someone else later on. They moved us to the bar, where we ended up waiting for a long time, and we had to rush through our dirty martinis before being asked to leave again. The pregnant waitress was wonderful, but the manager returned our tip just to get us out. Overall, it was a terrible experience.

Drinks are my favorite here especially the mezcalitas. We took advantage of happy hour which was a great deal. I think the food portions are pretty small for the price. But the drinks are ambience always make up for it. We went for live music on Thursday, so much fun!
Waiter was very inattentive & we were a party of 6 and our meals came out 2 at a time every 20 minutes - food was very bland - would not return
Unfortunately there was a long hair in my tacos and i was so grossed out about the hygiene of this place. The interior is very nice and trendy but food is super average and i dont think i can ever eat there again

It was a great experience, delicious food and drinks. One of the servers (female) was not on the mood that day with us, other than that everything was good really good restaurant.
Citrico never disappoints! I've been here many times since it opened & have always loved the experience, service & especially the food
