Citrus City Grille

Food score overall: 3/5 Calamari was pretty good- 4/5 Cesar salad with fresh ground pepper- 5/5 Filet mignon (medium) with roasted potato’s was ok, steak was overcooked and lacked flavor unless you used the sauce on the plate, potato’s were not cooked enough. 2/5 Espresso martini tasted like burnt espresso 1/5 Lemon drop was delicious 5/5 Service score overall: 4/5 Food runners were very confused but tried their best, lots of orders given to wrong people 3/5 Bartenders were pretty slow, only 1 guy mainly doing the work but only taking 1 order at a time. 2/5 Server was struggling, it was a big group, I get it. I don’t understand why they’d do 1 server for a group of 28 but she was def trying her best while being very pleasant. 3/5 Atmosphere overall score: 1/5 Inside was extra hot, it could be because of the open kitchen plus all the bodies but it was like a sauna inside. 1/5 I’m willing to give this place another shot, maybe it’s just not a good place for big groups.

The food was pretty good, I recommend if you’re in the area. The circle can be a pain for parking, so I wouldn’t go out of the way to go back. The drinks were good, the service was good at first but then I think they forgot about us. It wasn’t busy so I’m not sure how good the service will be when it’s actually busy, but if your in the neighborhood and like the food options, and you aren’t in a hurry.. check it out!

I hadn’t been to Citrus City Grille in over a decade and I couldn’t be any happier with our decision to revisit them last week. Whether you have a business meeting or luncheon planned, a romantic date, or a birthday, Citrus City Grille is the perfect spot for ANY special occasion, or just a casual patio lunch in the Orange Circle. The chefs here have cooking AND plating skills! They have a fantastic Summer Lunch Menu - If you enjoy sushi, the Seared Ahi Tuna is absolutely fantastic and melts in your mouth. But consider kicking off your meal with the Blue Cheese Stuffed Dates which taste like a pre-lunch dessert, and the Saganaki (Google it!) is a table-side experience! For dessert we had the Grand Marnier Souffle and the Sticky Toffee Pudding Cake were Phe-NOM-NOM-NOM-enal! And if you’re feeling parched, you can’t beat their Happy Hours - Now through August 30th, you can get 50% off all cocktails after 12 Noon - I had the Penicillin and my wife had the Watermelon Pineapple Martini. You’ll love the atmosphere just as much as the service with multiple servers and the General Manager checking in with your party. Thanks for the amazing luncheon experience, Citrus City Grille! We look forward to visiting you again soon!

Just stopped for dessert and was not disappointed. Service was good, desserts were well prepared and the Irish coffee (while not the best I've had, did cap the night.) The only less the 10 start from our samples would be the creme brulee. A little eggy for my taste, and the raspberry sorbet. Little too tart though problem refreshing during a summer month stop. Souffle were good but I would suggest doing your own pour for the sauce. The raspberry overwhelmed the Gran Marnier sauce and the dark chocolate would have been better spread out for the whole dessert. Bread pudding was excellent, and the bake less chocolate cake rich. This could have used some of that raspberry sauce left over from the Souffle. Overall a very enjoyable time.

This is actually a 3.5/5. Ok, so Citrus City Grille is a pretty good and creative food place that's way overpriced and way too popular in a way I do not get. There is equally good food for much lesser or better food just down the road. I enjoy sitting here for gatherings until the bill comes. Again, the food is nice but not close to THAT nice. Maybe go for happy hour.
