Wow! Just wow. I had the pepper encrusted New York steak which was a special for tonight, with the garlic, mashed potatoes and... broccoli. What a fantastic meal! The steak was large and was cooked to perfection. The broccoli was spectacular and the potatoeswere extremely tasty. Cara had the garganzola pasta with grilled chicken and that was wonderful as well.

My review of Cítrone is ???? ???? ???? ???? ???? Charmed from the minute I entered. The Host Lauryn gives such a nice warm... welcome, and my server Emily is the gold standard. Ethan will make your reservation complete. The vibe here is spectacular --high ceiling and glass, lighting targeted for best of ambience and stylish comfort. Lovely in both comfortable seating andbackground music. Decor is fresh and clean and classy bistro style. Who doesn't love fresh flowers on the table? There areexposed brick walls and a tin ceiling with decorative pipe vents that are also practical and secretly provide subtle heating andA/C. The restaurant takes you away to a far off destination. The point of being here is the food and drink. Dining alone, I wasthrilled to first see numerous half bottles on the menu of wonderful wines, both local and imported. I like 2 glasses withdinner, so these are a blessing to have a freshly opened bottle to enjoy instead of the "only by-the-glass or a full bottle"offerings found in most other restaurants. I chose the 1/2 bottle of a sumptuous Brunello and the house Cioppino which made myevening. I finished with a delicious slice of olive oil cake and Graham's 20-yr. Old Tawny Port. While here, I made anotherdinner reservation for their next day of service just to confirm then that tonight wasn't just a dream. Read more

I don't hand out 5 star reviews often and this time I'd give 6 stars if possible to Citrone in Redlands. Last night's dinner was... exceptional and the service was stupendous. The ambiance inside is cozy and intimate with an open kitchen in view. Ispecifically chose Citrone last night to try the veal chop I saw featured on Yelp. Once seated I learned from my server that theveal chop is no longer on the dinner menu and is offered as a special on select nights, and tonight was not one of those nights.My heart sank as I looked over the menu for an alternative. While I trying to decide, a gentleman named Brandon stopped by mytable to welcome me to restaurant. I shared my reasoning for visiting, a special celebration, and my heavy-heartedness that theone item I came for was no longer available. With a smile Brandon told me he'd be right back. After a moment he returned to tellme that he had two veal chops, one was spoken for, and the other was available for me. I was thrilled at this news and thankedhim profusely. He went above and beyond to make my special night memorable. My dinner consisted of a scallop appetizer servedwith corn, duck a l'orange, and the superb veal chop with risotto. The scallops were lovely and deliciously light. The flavorand seasoning were exactly what you'd expect from a reputable restaurant. The duck had a savory, crispy skin with succulent,tender meat inside without any gaminess. Lastly, the veal with risotto was one of the most memorable dishes I've ever had. Themeat exploded with flavor and decadence. It was juicy and tender like no other meat I've had. The risotto was creamy and butteryand topped with mouthwatering mushrooms. It was so satisfying it could have been an entrée all on its own. In my usualfashion, I concluded my meal with a vanilla bean cheesecake that was airy and light while still having substance. Trulydelightful. This evening, there were no leftovers. I joyfully cleared my plates and plan to do it again soon! Read more

What a pleasant surprise! The food was delicious and Katy, our waitress was incredibly delightful. It is a bit pricey so be... prepared to open your wallet. We were a bit surprised to find not even a small surprise for two birthdays after spending over$200 for three simple dinners and two glasses of wine. Read more

This was our first time here. The staff went above and beyond and made date night with my wife a wonderful experience. The food... was amazing and the service was exceptional. They said our food took just a little longer than they had hoped but for us itdidn't feel long at all! But they gave us each a desert on the house for the trouble anyways. We will definitely be coming backregularly. One of the best dining experiences we've had. Our server, John was awesome. Read more
