Nice afternoon out for dinner on Christmas Day. My party which consisted of family were happy. Especially my mum. Who is now in a wheelchair. We managed fine getting her in and out of building and to bathroom. So that made me happy.

Absolutely lovely Mothers Day experience. Ambience and service was excellent. Unfortunately mum's meat dish was difficult to cut and chew. Apart from that it was delightful 😊

We couldn't fault our night spent in Citation's very capable hands. Food was incredible, the staff were attentive, supportive without being overbearing. The overall ambiance was cheerful and festive from the doormen to the waiting staff. In the bar, same level of service from the staff and we ended our night out on a very merry note.
