    We recently visited Citrico cafe on Taco Tuesday and had an amazing time! The $3 chicken tacos were delicious, paired perfectly with a refreshing mezcalita (frozen mezcal). But what really stole the show was the live music - it was incredible! We definitely planning to return, especially for Salsa Night! The vibrant atmosphere and great entertainment make Citrico Cafe a must-visit destination.

    I can't say enough about the wonderful experience I had! The food was exceptional, and the service was fantastic. I highly recommend trying the Italian sausage and pepper appetizer – it’s a delightful start to the meal. We also enjoyed the pasta special with filet mignon bolognese, Paccheri Amateiciana and they were delicious! We were initially unsure if the gelato would live up to the rest of the meal, but it truly exceeded my expectations – it was absolutely wonderful! I would definitely go back and relive this lovely dining experience.
