Such a great vibe. Good drinks, good people and good music. The owner is an amazing woman. I went there by myself and was... totally safe and comfortable and left with new friends. Read more

Came at about 8pm on a Friday and host was very accommodating for a a table of 6. Food was great, drinks were well mixed, music... lends a fun atmosphere. Even with my minor kids they were spot on with service and accomodations. Water was always topped offand the couple of mixed drinks were spectacular. Thank You Citron staff for a pleasant dinner with a sound track to liven up anymeal. Read more
I greatly enjoyed this place, the ambiance and the disposition of the staff upon my visit. As background, I am married 40 year... old on solo vacation in DC and wanted to just find a place to grab a few drinks and people watch. I like observing from thecorner so I have detailed review to provide. My real party days are over so I can't handle certain kinds of places where thecrowd get too rowdy or raunchy or where the bouncers are not doing their jobs of keeping things in check. I ended up here byhappenstance after wandering the area, which is very lively at night on the weekends. This place was certainly a great party andI will be back. Being from Miami, I was pleasantly surprised with the mix of music, which really had everything includinghispanic music with it. The DJ was certainly very good and kept a solid flow song to song without missing a beat all night. Iwas there from about 11 to 2 and I don't think he took a break or left his post for even once. The entire staff was verypolite: all the bartenders and servers to the bouncers at the door and also the manager that kept going back and forth to checkon things. The bartenders and servers did their jobs incredibly well here imo. As a manager within different industry, I knowthe value efficiency and human relations. As I observed, they excelled at it. The male bartender in particular had incredibleenthusiasm throughout the night and was rallying the crowd with free shots at one point - he even noticed me, the old curmudgeonbeing quiet and made it point to get to me take one. All the bartenders/servers were super quick on the drinks and were dancingall night with the crowd. There was never more than a 1 minutes wait for me to get a drink and most of the time, they noticedwhen my beer was low and would ask if wanted another before I could, even though this place had a good crowd upstairs anddownstairs. The drink prices are exactly what you'd expect for a bar/club in DC. They were slightly less here Read more
Good vibe and good food. Definitely a place I will visit again, staff is friendly and music is great. After 9:30 pm the vibes... gets better. Recommended Read more
Good drinks and good music. Vibe was great but food was disgusting. You'll come here to hang out with drinks and do a little... dancing with friends/ppl but you won't come here for the food. Read more
Clubby atmosphere with GREAT Latin music, amazing food, killer happy hour deals, and excellent service! The Latin hot dogs and... beef arepa are both fantastic and a steal (2 hot dogs for $8 in THIS town??), plus happy hour is every night from 6 to 8. Wewere there pretty early for just dinner, but it would be an epic dance spot later in the night. 10/10 can't wait to go back! Read more
Came here for the beautiful decor and lively atmosphere but the food was surprisingly really great. I'm still thinking about... that lomo saltado! Came here in a large group for dinner so we sat on the balcony. Drinks were strong and although the food tooka while to come out, the lomo saltado, beef/chicken empanadas, and tacos were all great. Service was also great (I think beingup in the balcony leads to more attentive service because the bartender is right next to you). Music is very loud so don't comehere if you want to have a conversation, but the dancing started around 10-11. Read more
