our server Ryan H. was the best!! she hooked us up; we were in disbelief! she gave us an amazing experience and was soo sweet and charismatic. the food was great & Citizen has a wide selection for drinks — which i love anywhere. they have a variety of coffee, smoothies, and alcoholic drinks topped with cute straws! the churro french toast w/ caramel butterscotch sauce was yummy, along with the hashbrowns. we sat at the bar because it was busy & the staff was all so nice and sweet. the interior design was incredibly cute. the only thing i will mention is that you should be prepared to not find parking in the small lot next to the building; we valeted across the street for $10.
Interesting place with the Good Food and really good service. It is a solid four in my mind. I think maybe there was too much height around this place and for the food, but I was a bit underwhelmed overall maybe because I was expecting way too good of a service than what it turned out to be. I got a burrito it was decent. I mean for the price of it it seemed kind of small and nothing special necessarily but it tasted good. I mean I won’t compare it to a Chipotle burrito which is probably three times the size of this.. but it was okay. Hubby got the salmon with egg Benedict and early it was good and nothing exceptional.. we are absolutely had to try the banana bread French toast even though we were stuffed we are requested for that and I will say that it was the highlight of the brunch so for that I think this place is a solid four. I did get a Matcha latte which I think was not made right maybe they use too much of hot water which made it a bit bitter but it’s okay. I had it anyway. Hubby got the green clean juice that he absolutely loved.
Yesterday had a procedure down and was not feeling in the best spirit for the new year. Leo was attentive, caring and made sure we had everything we needed. He checked on us many times and lighten up our mood with banana bread. Not to mention the food was delicious. Also loved the lavender latte and the fresh squeeze OJ. Great customer service and we will definitely be back!
We enjoyed our brunch at Citizen. It's a bright, airy place with a super friendly staff who were smiling, cheery and attentive. This is one of 4 in the USA, two in NYC and one open or opening in Austin. Two guys from Oz started the concept in NYC and here we are. The pancakes were so amazingly fluffy and taste. You can actually differentiate the butter, syrup and compost flavors. The Cast Iron Chorizo was nice. It looks small, but it's quite filling. Different than our usual Tex/Mex style. Dig through the beans and Chorizo and discover the poached eggs which explode as you poke them. Such a tasty and exciting dish. The prices are accessible and fair. Parking on east side and back of the building. Definitely recommend. We'll be back.
Made reservations for brunch and had a great experience! The only negative would be how loud the place was inside because it was quite busy. It got better once there was less people there. The mimosas are really strong and yummy. The brisket burger was amazing, as well as the fries. The banana pancakes might be the best thing I’ve ever had!! Definitely will be back!
