The UG lists Citricos as having the same designer as the FF. That may be the only similarity theese two restaurants share. Citricos is a very open bland dining room that reminds me more of a buffet that wants to be upscale than a fine dining experience. Our experience here began by being seated in the worst table in the restaurant with many open tables available, at least 20 open tables. We sat right near the kitchen entrance with the staff hanging out and talking. There is nothing even remotely intimate about Citricos. We were determined to give the restaurant a fair chance after a poor start. we each ordered the fillet with mashed potato and grilled sweet onions. The first bite of potato I was rewarded with a mouthful of butter, YUCH! The grilled sweet onions tasted as if they had been grilled last week. They were very sour. The saving grace was that the fillet was perfect grilled over a wood fire. We observed the other plates going out of the kitchen and with the exception of the Osso Bucco nothing looked very appealing. Service was anemic. Citricos is easily our very least favorite restaurant of all time at Disney. The food service overall on our trip last week at Disney was the most incinsistant ever. Poor quality control and in general the staff really seemed to not care or be very Disney like. The FF is far superior to Citricos IMO. Hopefully others have better experiences here than we did.
