    The friendly staff and delicious food will have us return for sure. Oh, and the outdoor seating is of course another plus for sure. We eat out whenever in Vero, and this place is now on the short list. It was a bit pricey over other locations in Vero, but my party of 4 was pleased with the overall experience.

    From start to finish the experience was perfect! Efficient and friendly waitstaff who made good eye contact and always smiled. The food presentations were as beautiful as they were delicious. We sat outside, which was quiet, smelled good due to the small wood fire in the fireplace, and the blooming flowers were magnificent. Our first visit but likely one of many.

    Had another fantastic lunch at Citron Bistro! Split a bacon cheeseburger with fries with my mom and it could not have been any yummier. A glass of Pinot Noir and Prosecco each topped it all off.
