Citrus Cafe

Citrus Cafe is a bustling neighborhood restaurant in the commercial district of Tustin. The food is American-Californian in spirit, whose simple appearance bellies its depth of flavor. We are committed to using the freshest ingredients and along with our friendly service, we continue to remain a favorite year after year with our loyal customers. The wine list, like the food, focuses on California and changes often as we discover new wines.

"Food was good but service could have been better. The restaurant wasn't busy but it was 5 minutes after we sat down before the waiter stoped by to see what we wanted to drink. I ordered salad with my meal which never came.
I had the Mediterranean Vegetable Penne with chicken and I ask to hold the black olives. The pasta was done to perfection without the olives. It was a huge portion that I could only finish half and taking the rest home for lunch next day. My compaion order the Gyro which she said was just average."

"Because I had a reservation, the restaurant assumed that I wanted the brunch and sat us at a table that was not allowed to order from the menu. We had to change tables in order to select the food we wanted."
