Made reservations for the 'new' Citrico's after all the positive reviews and biy, we're they right!

Started off with a mocktail, their 'LONDON SPRITZ' and it was delightful, refreshing and perfect for the upcoming Spare Ribs .. ..

Those ribs were fantastic and every bite was an explosion of flavors .. ..

Ended with their ORANGE FLAN = More explosions!

Just a wonderful dinner, one of the very best I can remember in years .. .. THANKS CITRICO's!!

Pros:

Everything

Cons:

nothing

Enjoyed everything about the restaurant . The staff is fabulous . Our waiter, Nadeem was fantastic . He was extremely professional , attentive and personable . All of our dishes were great . For appetizers I had the strawberry salad and my husband and son had the arancini and thoroughly enjoyed the flavors of the these dishes . I had the mahi-mahi as my entree which was flavorful and tender .My son had a steak which was cooked perfectly and my husband had the housemade rigatoni “bolognese”which he described as a plant based masterpiece.
Overall, the combination of staff, food and atmosphere made this one of the best dinners we had.

Pros:

Staff extremely professional, knowledgeable . Food delicious with interesting flavors

None

This is beyond a doubt, one of the best meals I have ever had in my life. The Mary Poppins decor is very beautiful and not super in your face. After we sat down, we decided to order almost the whole menu and share it amongst five adults. Every single bite was incomparable. Dishes were plated spectacularly, and we were almost in tears sometimes with how flavorful the food was (I promise, I'm not being overdramatic!). Some highlights from the menu: corn bisque (this was the BEST thing we ate in the whole meal), pork belly, short ribs, cobia, blackberry tartelette, orange blossom flan. The cocktails were great too. We left the meal all exclaiming how much we loved every single thing we ate. We will never forget this special meal, and getting to be in the Grand Floridian at Christmas too was so magical.

Pros:

Everything on the menu, the decor, the ambiance

Cons:

Literally none

This has become our new favorite Signature restaurant. The food and service were exceptional.
We arrived about 20 minutes late for our reservation, but we did let them know we were going to be late, and were seated right away.
For appetizers, we shared the Citricos Crab Salad and Arancini. For our entree, my husband and I shared the Yellowtail Red Snapper. For dessert, we shared the Key Lime Pie. Everything was cooked to perfection with the right amount of time between each course. We look forward to dining here again...

My wife and I had dinner at Citricos on Jan. 27. It completed our VGF "hat trick" after dining at Victoria and Alberts and Narcoosee's on prior trips. We had an absolutely wonderful meal. I am looking forward to a return visit.

I was wearing an "I'm celebrating" button. The staff wanted to know why (we had recently paid the last tuition bill for the youngest of our 4 children, which brought an end to 10 years of tuition payments!) and gave us special menus, which we were permitted to take home. They also comp'd glasses of champagne to help us celebrate.

Our waiter recommended the beef short ribs, which my wife had. She thought they were terrific. She was nice enough to share a bite and it was excellent - very tender.

I ordered the filet mignon medium rare. It was a touch rarer than I expected. I was fine with it that way, and if they are going to err, better to err on the undercooked side because that can be fixed. It was a generous piece of meat, very tender, very flavorful.

I also was very pleased with the wine list. We found a 2010 cabernet from a smaller producer, which went perfectly with our entrees.

Our waiter was appropriately attentive and made recommendations that proved accurate. He took time to review the menu, answer several questions, and had a great sense of humor - all without getting in the way.

We have this on the list of restaurants at WDW again on a future trip. I would definitely recommend Citiricos.

Pros:

the food, the service, everything

Dined here for the first time on Thurs March 8th 2013.

I really enjoyed everything about the meal.
My server presented me with a personalized menu that said Happy Birthday, and my full name on it.

My server was professional and knowledgable.
I ordered the Sauteed shrimp appetizer...WOW this was so good. I would have eaten 2 more bowls of it. It was delicious.

For my entree I ordered the Filet. It was nicely presented atop barley risotto, with a cabernet demi-glace. It was cooked at a perfect medium as ordered.

For dessert I had coffee and Chocolate lava cake with belgium chocolate crown. It was heavenly.
My server also presented me with a special birthday dessert that had a small cone with a scoop of gelato, and a chocolate decoration that said "happy birthday" and a whipped cream with a birthday candle. It was really nice!

I was so happy with my meal and service at Citricos. I plan to dine here again.

Pros:

Great service and cuisine

Cons:

None that I experienced.

It was our first time at Citricos. But we are going to go back for sure!! the place is very nice, the chairs are very confortable, and everything is nice. We had a very attentive and funny server, and the food was very good. You can´t miss the chocolate banana cake, it is so nice that to eat it it´s a shame! (we ate it anyway, of course) The meal was excellent. Worth the two credits!

Pros:

the place, the food, the everything

We visited Citricos at Grand Floridian for the first time on Christmas night. GF is so beautiful, especially at Christmas. We got there early so we'd have time to walk around, take a picture in front of their Christmas tree, see the gingerbread house, maybe shop and listen to the orchestra playing Christmas music. The atmosphere was perfect!

Once we checked in at Citricos we only waited a few minutes to be seated. The restaurant is very pretty. Our waitress was quick to take our order but we never felt rushed.

All in all the food was good. I had a crab cake app which was amazing, my entre, beef short ribs, were pretty good. My wife and both daughters liked their entrees but they were not as happy with their choices as I was. Two had chicken and one had filet.

I also very much enjoyed my salted caramel martini. The desserts were amazing - gingerbread cheesecake, tiramisu and chocolate banana tort.

It was a very good meal but I guess we set the bar a little too high. We all expected to be blown away by Citricos and so maybe we were a little disappointed. We've been to Narcoosee's and the GF Café and both were better. However, I'm sure we will go back someday.

Pros:

food was good, Grand Floridian is great

Cons:
