    Hi Guys, just so you know… if you make a later reservation, you can see the MK fireworks while you dine, they are beautifully framed by the large windows, very romantic. Everything about the restaurant is so pretty and it all has Mary Poppins meaning such as the chandeliers that resemble umbrellas, the floral upholstery, carpet and more. Agree with your Top 5 ratings though, Citricos is a strong 6. Love that it can be reached by monorail. Try the steak next time.

      We did not know that, thank you! It is one of the prettiest restaurants and the decor was done very tastefully.

    Great video. I really appreciate that Sam said that the flavors of the guava short rib might just not have been for her vs "this is bad" that you get from some reviewers. I also love that you review the mocktails!

      I notice a lot of people are very easy to critique something negatively based off their personal preferences, and I don’t find that fair to the restaurant. Thank you so much for watching & commenting 😊

    great review! we ate here last week for the first time! we wanted to treat daughter & son in law for helping us with the move from Boston. He said it was the best filet he'd ever had and he's from Wyoming, they know beef:) congrats on the house! We also got free champagne for celebrating buying our house:)

    Hey guys. Great review as always. Wifey and I have eaten there so many times we lost count. Every time e come down thats one of our must do's. We absolutely love this place. I always get the tile fish. Have gotten the lamb shank in the past and it was amazing, sad not to see it on the menu. Great wine list for us top shelf wine drinkers. Desserts are always great. Glad you enjoyed it. Top 5 is a tough one. We do like Cali Grill but put Citricos ahead of it. As you said it comes down to personal preference sometimes. Keep the reviews coming, always enjoy them !

    I'm sorry - I kept rewinding to try to hear your No. 1 pick and just couldn't make it out for some reason. Can you name it again? I got the rest, just couldn't make that one out. We usually eat at Shades of Green when we visit since that's where we stay, but plan on venturing to Disney restaurants for our next trip. We love your reviews. Thanks!

      It doesn’t surprise me, I feel like with Narcoossees being so popular, Citricos is kind of an afterthought . It’s a visually stunning restaurant with impeccable service, but the portions were on the small side. Thank you for always leaving such thoughtful comments 😊

    The short rib is a 10, and so is the strawberry salad. No debate.

      It did start to get loud towards dessert time. We’ll try to be more cognizant with the microphone. We personally would choose Narcoossees over this, but not because we think it’s bad by any means. Cali Grill has a prix fixe menu now 😭 Thanks for watching!

    Hello TPF's🎉 text from Frank made my night! I'm starting to think maybe Jiko should be #1 😂. Every time you bring up all the delicious food from there, I can't wait to eat there. We really want to eat here, too. Such a pretty place and beautiful food. And I agree, very cool tableware. Cappuccino is my drink... I have at least one everyday, so I was really excited to see one here. Thanks for another great video!
