    My daughter took me to dinner tonight to celebrate my birthday. The service is excellent, and the staff are very thoughtful, when they took us to the table they had a happy birthday card for me. The plates are very creative and the food is delectable and perfectly executed. I highly recommend the lobster bolognese and the veal. It has a refined and inviting atmosphere. It is a bit pricey; nevertheless, I enjoyed my birthday dinner at Citrin. Thank you Kaelan.

    Lovely space with incredible views and a cool vibe, but the food and drinks were only so-so. Our server was very sweet, helpful, and friendly, but we had to wait a really long time for the check

    My experience at the Golden Hour was so beautiful. It had great city views, good music, and good food. I felt like I was in a movie. I would definitely recommend to family, and friends. Great for date night, or just a good night out with friends.
