CITRICOS
Our experience with Citricos has been amazing so far.
We celebrated our 3rd wedding anniversary at Citricos and they treated us like royalty, plus we had one of the most delicious meals we have ever had on property!!! So Citricos seemed to be the natural choice for us when it came to deciding where to host a celebration dinner after our vow renewal. We also just love the ambiance of the restaurant and that it is located inside the Grand Floridian (which to me has the most "wedding feel" of all of the resorts.)
We contacted the restaurant manager and he has been extremely helpful and accommodating to all of our requests.
Here are the things we asked for :
1.) Light appetizers at Mizners Lounge
We will have almost an hour and a half to relax at Mizners and listen to the Grand Floridian Society Orchestra play. We plan on either buying a bottle of champagne or the first round of drinks for everyone but we also wanted to have some light snacks to nibble on. Since Citricos does not open until 5:30 and Mizners doesn't start serving food until 5:30 we asked Citricos if they could put together a cheese plate for us (enough to feed 6) and have it delivered to Mizners for 4:15 and they said that wouldn't be a problem- amazing!

2.) Personalized Menus
Since this is a reception" of sorts we didn't want our guests worrying about prices.We remembered that when we celebrated our 3rd anniversary Citricos had surprised us with personalized menus- so we asked if we could have personalized menus and also leave off the pricing info. The response was "of course- easy" !

3.) Reserved Table
Citricos does not typically reserve specific tables- but since our reservation is during the first seating of the evening they said we could reserve the exact table we were hoping for. We wanted to be away from the kitchen- and somewhere closer to the back of the restaurant at a round table by the windows overlooking the gardens. I found a layout of the restaurant and sent it to the manager and circled the table we are hoping for and he said we are approved for that exact table!
(Here's a picture of the table in the restaurant)
I can't wait to see what they create for our menus and the meal that evening. I know they will go above and beyond to make it amazing for us!
