    This is one of our favorite restaurants. However, we were shocked when we recently stopped in at about 7:55 PM on a weekday and we're told that the kitchen would be closing in a few minutes. We were also told that the bar would be open for another hour but we were planning to order drinks, but we need dinner as well. This is such a busy area, we were shocked that the restaurant would be closing so early on a weekday.

    I almost can't believe I'm giving a fast, casual five stars, but this place really hit the sweet spot. It was fresh, high quality ingredients, just delicious. Perfectly prepared. The beef tips belonged at a high-end Steakhouse. The chicken fried steak is one of the best I've ever had. Service was on point. 40 beers on tap. Great value for money. Five stars well earned!

    My friend and I were looking for a cool place to eat after a long Saturday of yard sale hopping. The restaurant was easy to get to, except parking wasn't fun. Once we got inside we were sat pretty quickly. The restaurant is really nice inside, we felt under dressed but definitely were not treated as such. Our waitress give us a great recommendation for an appetizer that would help cool us off, bruschetta, so refreshing I had the Avocado BLT off the brunch menu and my friend had the Monte Cristo (brunch is until 3p). Also, had the opportunity to ask about their room rentals and the prices are pretty decent make sure you ask too, this could be the place for your next event.

    I think this restaurant is really great, and it has an extensive variety of food options as well as a very clean inside with friendly staff and quick service. We loved our food and will be coming back! Also, they have a patio area that has fans and you can smoke a cigar.

    I absolutely LOVED this place. The inside was so warm, classy, and homey feeling. The service was excellent! I had the best biscuits and grave that I have ever had before here. There were so many options to choose from! I can't wait to come back.

    Came here for Father's Day. My parents really like the place, but this time was a slight miss for me. Shrimp tacos were alright, could've used more flavor, and the creamed corn wasn't the greatest, so just a little disappointed given the price. My parents and grandma enjoyed their food. On an other note, the server was on top of things, the restaurant was clean, and the staff were nice. I'd be willing to give it another try, but the menu is a lil pricey for average food.

    $8/martinis for happy hour were the draw, but bartender was a complete dud. Tip: Hey I can make the best martini for myself at home: how about some banter? Where are you hiding out after you pour for a light crowd?

    Wednesday before Thanksgiving, we ate an early dinner here. My out of town guests and I were expecting a nice meal as we've always had here. My Tortilla soup was a dark brown color and a bit "off" ~ the shrimp risotto was completely cold as was the blackened salmon. My soup was served with a HALF piece if Texas toast. When I asked server if I could have another, he quickly tapped his order tablet and then charged $2 for the small half. He didn't bring my guest his wine, but a waitress who we hailed did. She was so nice. I was embarrassed by taking guests here and upset with the meal and poor service. Citizens ~ you must do better.

    I actually dine here pretty often. The food is great and the staff delivers great friendly service especially Kathy and Andi. I most recently had the fried shrimp with coleslaw and onion rings. Cooked perfectly and portions generous. Their salads are all fresh and I especially enjoy their wedge salad. I get the dressing on the side because they tend to use too much for my taste. I also recommend the fish or shrimp tacos and the tortilla soup. The restaurant is large with a huge outdoor enclosed patio, a separate bar area and private rooms. Family friendly.

    Had my first visit to Citizens Grill last night for my birthday and we had a solid visit. Service was fast and friendly, and the restaurant's ambiance had me feeling elevated American pub vibes. We didn't order anything super -- fish and chips, cup of tomato basil soup + 1/2 grilled cheese, & tenderloin beef tips -- but each person enjoyed their menu selection. My middle daughter really enjoyed the tomato basil soup & shared some with me, but I'd pass on it if presented with my own chance to order. The tenderloin beef tips entree was very tasty and the mashed potatoes covered in jalapeño cream gravy with grilled green beans were solid sides. I asked for my steak to be cooked medium and it came out medium well, though, so that was a small miss. Also, I tasted zero jalapeño in the jalapeño cream gravy. Probably the most negative thing about Citizens Grill is access into and out of the restaurant. It shares a parking lot with a large apartment complex & sits next to a busy highway, so we had to sit through 3 red lights to turn in & then wait a long time to exit the parking lot in the direction we needed to go due to road congestion. Would I return? Yep! Is it going to become a destination for dining out for my family? Probably not.
