Modern decor with surrounding glass panels on the main room to enjoy the view of downtown Orlando. Very friendly staff. Try the seasonal options and don't be afraid to ask for substitutions, they were very accomodating at our request to change the cut of meat in a particular dish. Food was well prepared, a little on the expensive side but... More

Citrus is a very sleek, modern restaurant, which can be great or just average. I have had scallops and risotto there that were to die for and expensive lunch specials that did not have a lot of flavor, despite what one could tell was a complicated effort. For lunch the burger or grilled romaine salad is a safe bet. Would... More

Went to Citrus a couple weeks ago, but wanted to put in my review since I had such a great meal. The place is really nice and comfortable.

We had a great experience at Citrus thanks to our bartender/waitress, Tonda. She was very attentive to us. The food was all fresh and delicious. We had three appetizers and one entree: the seared tuna tataki, wagyu beef carpaccio, agave lime p.e.i. mussels, and the chimichurri hanger steak. I thoroughly enjoyed my Carmel Road Pinot Noir as well.

The staff behaves as if the restaurant is a lot better than it really is, they don't know much about wine, and the prices are way high. But the food was well prepared and tasty.

This is a cool downtown restaurant with a chef that really know what he is doing in the kitchen. The trout is probably the best I have had anywhere . Their Caesar salad is outstanding. Thy the Cote di Rhone. For $30 it's a great value. You won't be disappointed with this restaurant. Great attentive service!

Like it's name implies many of the items including drinks are infused with citrus. The citrus butter was delicious. The food was excellent. My server was professional, just the right amount of attention. Very friendly and helpful. If you can eat out on the patio. Like a sidewalk cafe. A very enjoyable dining experience on the edge of downtown Orlando.

Good food and service. A bit on the pricey side. It was VERY noisy, and that detracted from the ambiance.
