    Our waiter, William, was top notch, we followed his suggestions (the Sea Bass and the Brussels Sprouts were both excellent), and he was generally just very helpful with any questions we had, and accommodating. We'll definitely go back again, and probably try to even ask for him by name, he was that good!

    Citron continues to be my go-to spot for everyday dining, top-notch events, and special occasion dinners. Very comparable in caliber to exceptional NYC restaurants - of which I am a frequent diner. From perfectly cooked meat/fish dishes to vibrant cocktails to decadent desserts - I recommend citron to all locals, visitors and clients of mine.

    We were able to get a same day last minute reservation for our 5 year anniversary. There were very accommodating to our late reservations and the service did not lack. The waiter was very helpful in guiding our meal selection and even when my item was unavailable he was able to help me with a new selection. The ambience was beyond perfect for the occasion, it matched our energy 100%. To add to the experience the owner was very personable and ensured everything was beyond amazing for us. Citron is a must go to.

    Service was excellent! Appetizers were delicious! Disappointed they did not have the creme brûlée , but like they said the key lime pie did not disappoint!! They forgot the sauce for the crab cakes and I wondered why the crab cake was dry, until half way through the meal that I discovered the sauce was missing. After I mentioned it, they were apologetic and brought the sauce. Immanuel the waiter was attentive and has excellent communication skills. Overall a good experience. Will go again for the appetizers and a drink

    Great surprise on a first visit. This restaurant has a large menu for gourmet dining. Nice location away from the rush of downtown Baltimore. Either outside, in the bar, in the great room or a private dining room, there is something for everyone here. A little pricey but worth it for a special occasion or date night. I plan to visit again soon.

    I went to Citron to celebrate my birthday with family. My fiancé and I figured it would be the perfect time to try their food since we reserved one of their spaces for our rehearsal dinner. Let me tell you: the food, the ambiance, the music, just everything was amazing! Even down to the customer service! Please check them out. I cannot wait to visit Citron again.

    We came for a private date. The waiter was very helpful and while it was suspected that he was suggesting all the most expensive items on the menu, each of the items lived up to his praise. Outside of a small disturbance from another customer and having zero phone signal, the evening was perfect. Citron has inserted itself into our rotation.

    Citron is Baltimore’s best restaurant and our dinner lived up to expectations - as always, an outstanding experience! The food was eclectic and delicious, accompanied by our selection from Citron’s extensive and well-curated wine list. Where else can one order a creative sushi roll appetizer with a filet cooked to perfection? Our guest thought the mahi-mahi topped with crab crushed it. Service was attentive without being intrusive. As always, Charles was present ensuring the evening went perfectly. Highly recommend.
