Citricos Dining Review at the Grand Floridian Resort! - Celebrating our Anniversary!

Hey guys, so we are on our way for our anniversary dinner. Yay! Happy anniversary. Yes, happy anniversary. So we've never been here before, so I'm excited to give it a try. We're heading to the Grand Floridian to Citra Coast. Yes, very good. I expect it to be very good. I checked the menu today and yeah, very very good. You know, for a special occasion. It's a little pricey, but it's I hope going to be good. I've heard good things about it and sorry for the squeak. Yeah, let me turn them wipers off. There we go. That's annoying. Yeah, they're still going. That's enough with the wipers. Tone it down. But yeah, it looked really good and they redid it. The whole inside is redone since I've been there. Actually, I've never been there, but since what a year? Something like that. Maybe a year. Pandemic or so. Yeah, can't wait to check it out. I think it's like We're gonna be Mary Poppins with our umbrella going in there. We sure are. It is raining. Raining. Dale might have to drop me off. And we just saw a cow on the road. No big deal in Orlando. There's cows running around. Cow on the road. I tried to get it, but it was the windows were too wet. All right, you better turn those back on. We'll see you there. Hey guys, this is Jenna and Dale with Resort TV 1 and we made it. We're here at the Grand Floridian. Citra Coast is back here. Also, Victoria and Albert's is back there too. It's a really super expensive one. We've never been there. No, and I don't think we probably ever will, which is fine. Yeah, it's fine. But we're going to Citra Coast tonight and I am super excited. It looks nice in there too. The menu looks amazing. A lot of fish, which we like. I love fish. And chicken. So yeah, we're gonna show you the menu. Hopefully they'll have a paper menu. But yeah, we'll show you what we have and let you know how it is. Show you around the restaurant. Me too. And we are all dressed. Look good. I got my dress on. My new bag that I was on shopping probation for a while. Yes, that's right. So it's in here in the Grand Floridian. And there's Jenna all decked out, looking very beautiful. I'm a lucky guy. And it's right back there. And if you go over here, you can see outside, which it was raining. Still is a little bit. It's always a beautiful resort to check out. We checked in and waiting on our table and enjoying the amazing music. Love it. So we have a nice seat here with a nice view. It is a very nice seat. So here is the menu. We've got the first course, the entrees, the yummies, and the enhancements. So we're going with the mahi-mahi, the butter poached mahi-mahi, and the roulade chicken. Dale took our picture. I like that. Looks good. But yeah, here's our seat. We have a nice view, like I said. We just ordered. And yeah, it's a really pretty restaurant. Over here is where we came in at. And here comes our bread. Just kidding, that's not our bread. Oh, there's our bread. That's very cool. Like Dale said, the bread came and it has citrus butter on top there. It's like a little pan you put in the stove for like casseroles and stuff. And it looks like a little truffle, like chocolate, but it's butter. Oh, okay. But I mean the pan itself. No, I gotcha, yeah. Let's see what the bread we got. Oh, fancy bread. Oh, what'd she say it was? Olive? Some kind of olive? It was the olive bread and the other one was the ciabatta. Ciabatta bread, correct. Yeah, it's good. All right, so you go ahead and try the bread. Which one did you, the ciabatta? The butter is what I made me. Is it? Is it very citrusy? Not very, but it has a hint. Okay. Going in for the olive one? That's better? It's really good. Good deal. So if you couldn't hear me, I said they were really good. The butter is citrusy but not overwhelming. It's like just the right enough, just like a hint of citrus and sea salt. I really like the olive bread. That was really, really good. Probably my favorite. Let's see what Dale thinks. He's trying to butter over there. The butter is not... It's spreadable but not... It's not very spreadable. That's the term I was looking for. There you go. It takes a little bit. The bread's nice and warm so it helps. It does help. Processing. That's good. Right? It's really good. Yep, that is good. It's not like overwhelming citrus but it's good. Yep. Over here is the other side of the restaurant as well. It's like in a gazebo area. Looks really cool. I like it. Jenna had thought one area looks like Mary Poppins or so, but I don't know which one. Must not be this one or else they redid it and it was before that it was like that. And right over there's our table. We were sitting here and Dale said, look butterflies are on the light. How cute. A little touch there. I looked it up and it's supposed to be like very low-key theme to Mary Poppins, the new Mary Poppins movie. I don't see a lot of touches from there but it's very pretty in here. Love it. Love the colors. Yeah. Can't wait to try our food. We need our... I'm hungry. So our food came and it looks amazing. Yes it does. So, uh, Dale, I have the mahi-mahi. It's buttered. Butter poached Florida mahi-mahi, mashed fingerling potatoes, grilled asparagus, mushrooms, grapefruit beurre blanc. That's the sauce. I am not sure. Okay, well what you said sounds good and then what'd you get? Oh, the other thing was it was it pairs it with the wine. They give you a wine off you pair it with. I got the roulade of chicken. It is braised kale, corn, cake, romesco sauce, roasted turnips. So I remember having chicken roulade at the Festival of the Arts and I loved it so much. So we're gonna share. Can't wait. All right, very good. There's a nice grilled flavor. Whatever the butter sauce so good. Yeah, the grilled flavor of the fish with the sauce. Those are good too. All right, Dale's turn. Gotta get some of the sauce. That's a good face. Good chicken. Very good tender chicken. Try this corn cake. Oh yeah, that's good too. Really? Very good. All right. Definitely. So both of our entrees are really, really good. Can't wait. I'm gonna try it. We're gonna share. So I'm gonna get some of my mahi. Super good. Loving it. So we're still loving our entrees here. I got some of Dale's chicken too and oh my goodness so good. I think I like my mahi better but that the chicken so good and whatever these um cake things were. Oh the corn the corn cakes. So good as well. Yeah, those are all mine. The sauce is what is amazing with my mahi. Well, it's all good but the sauce is very good. It is very good sauce. Dale thinks he would get his chicken again. I think so and actually you couldn't tell but in my kale there was almost shredded chicken inside the kale. There was more chicken inside there which was awesome. It was very good. The potatoes, oh my goodness, so good. Yeah, I'd get either one of these dishes again, 100%. Definitely. The sun is trying to peek out again after the rain. It's still sprinkling a little bit but definitely not bad. But yeah, love these chandeliers up here. Those are pretty cool. I heard the waitress say they're supposed to be like Mary Poppins umbrella. I don't know. Yeah, pretty fun. So we pretty much got a clean plate award. Well, Dale did. I almost licked it. He really did. It was that good. I was like, I gotta lick this. So we're checking out the desserts here. They all look so good. I think I'm gonna get the apple rose because it has frozen coconut milk which I can eat. So I'm excited it's vegan. I think Dale's gonna get the blackberry tartlet. I think so. I'm not sure I can eat that but we'll see. They all look good. So yeah, so far everything has been amazing. I cannot wait. So here is our dessert and I got the apple rose and look it looks just like a rose. How pretty is that with the coconut, frozen coconut milk and they got a little happy anniversary. I think it's chocolate but I'm not sure. And then here is Dale's blackberry something. Tartlet. Tartlet, that's right. Blackberry tartlet. This looks really good as well and look guys, a little hidden binky there and a happy anniversary on that one as well. So super excited. I'm gonna dig in. All right, let's try it out. It's almost too pretty to eat but I'm getting it. It's crazy how they turn it into a rose looking thing with the apples. Isn't that cool? Good stuff. Is it cinnamon? It almost has like a rosy flake. Oh. I don't want to look back at it but it's like your normal apple tartlet and I love that they have coconut milk ice cream with it. So I was wrong on the rose flavor. It's a raspberry jam and now I get that now. The rose threw me off but yeah, super good. Yeah, I really like it. Let's see what Dale thinks. I'm not too sure how to eat this guy. Well, he's right there in the corner and you'll get all the layers. I wonder is this hard or soft? I'd say it's a tart. It's like a mousse. Oh yeah. Oh, I thought you meant the bottom part. Try to get all the flavors in one. Downloading. Oh, it kind of looks like the one you get at like Navi. Yeah, the inside there is lemon. Oh. But that was one of the reasons I almost didn't get it because I really wanted the chocolate but the waitress, she recommended this. I was like, oh, I always get chocolate. I'm gonna try something else. It is good but I think I would prefer chocolate. So which part's lemon? Underneath, like that foot filling. This must be the blackberry. Oh yeah, that's good. And then what's the other side? This is probably just like a It's like marshmallow. Yeah. Or meringue but I don't think that's what it is. The lemon overpowers it. Hold on. I think it's marshmallow. No, it was a vanilla. Yeah. Like a vanilla marshmallow or something. We'll have to look back. But it's good. Not your favorite but. But it's still good. Okay, good. Yeah. Okay, good. Can't go wrong with it. We're done with our amazing dinner and so I would highly, highly recommend. The citric was so good. Oh my goodness. It was good. The entree is amazing. I would get either one that we had again. I would like to try some more on there too because they were like the tile fish looked good. It did. The short ribs sounded good. Yes, they did. So a lot of really yummy stuff on the menu. And the dessert was good too. I would say, and I'm a huge dessert sweet person, I would actually say I like the entrees more than the dessert. Which, big shocker for me. Yes, it is for you. I enjoyed the dessert but I liked the entrees better. Yeah, and I did, the desserts were good as well. And we normally don't get dessert but I really wanted to try the chocolate. Yeah. But I get chocolate everywhere. So I decided I'm going to try the blackberry tartlet because that's what she recommended anyhow. So I went with that. Yeah. It was good. It was a good dessert but it was nothing like over the top. I think. He doesn't really like lemonade. Yeah, the lemon, it had a strong lemon. So if you like lemon, definitely get it because it was good, just not chocolatey good. Not as good as he was wanting. And I would get the chicken I think again over the fish. I'd like to try something else but that corn cake made the plate. I mean, I like chicken anyhow but that corn cake was delicious. It was good. I don't, yeah, it wasn't my favorite. It was good. It made the plate. Yes. The sauce on mine, oh my goodness, okay. Yeah. So yeah, definitely recommend it.
