    The food was amazing. We ordered several pastas and they were all cooked perfectly especially the gnocchi with gorgonzola. We had the pistachio Gelato and tiramisu for dessert and they were both delicious. The staff was so attentive and friendly and the music made the night feel special. We love this restaurant especially for special occasions.

    We went to breakfast there today and we had one meal that wasn’t cooked the best and the server and the manager were fantastic about it. They turned a not so great experience into an unforgettable experience. They were just fabulous and it just goes to show you what kind of place Olive and Ivy is, Top Notch! I wish I remember the name of the server and the manager. We will definitely be back!!

    It was a great experience at Citizen. I’m not from AZ, so I searched for many spots to have a nice dinner and landed on this place. It was phenomenal. Based on name and pictures, I expected a more causal place but the menu was upscale so I hoped for the later. It was the perfect date night vibe. Our group of 4 were seated promptly and our server was great giving us her POV on the menu items we were interested in. The starter (Brussel Sprouts) must have! Meatloaf, Short Ribs, and Scallops were all hits as well!! Had a draft cocktail, a craft cocktail and 2 off menu cocktail requests. Yummy! Only critique to provide was the timing of drinks to start. We ordered our starter with our drinks. We received and ate our starter before our drinks came out. Kitchen was just faster than the bar that night. Did not take away from our overall experience.
