Citrus Cafe By Lemon Tree

Restaurant Review: Citrus, Lemon Tree Hotel Last week, we had the pleasure of dining at Citrus, the in-house restaurant of Lemon Tree Hotel, during an informal meeting. What started as an unplanned breakfast turned into a delightful culinary experience that we’ll fondly remember. After realizing we’d skipped breakfast, we decided to try Citrus, and our impromptu choice didn’t disappoint. We began with starters – Chicken and Banana Leaf Fish. The fish, in particular, stood out for its healthy preparation and perfectly balanced flavors. It was tender, aromatic, and cooked just right. Alongside, we enjoyed a platter of fresh cut fruits, including juicy melons and tangy pineapples, which provided a refreshing break. For the main course, we opted for Egg Fried Rice paired with Thai Red Curry. The curry had a slightly sweet profile, which some might find unconventional, but it complemented the fried rice beautifully. The overall balance of flavors made it a satisfying dish. To wrap up our meal, we indulged in a selection of sweets served in small batches. Each dessert was crafted to perfection, a testament to the skill and care of the culinary team. We were particularly impressed by the warm hospitality of the staff and took a moment to thank the Executive Chef, Krishnaiah, for creating such a homely yet sophisticated dining experience. The thoughtful presentation, use of fresh ingredients, and comforting flavors made us feel like we were enjoying a meal “home away from home.” We look forward to returning soon to savor more of their delightful offerings.

The food is authentic and very tasty. The service by.Bikshapathy Yadav is just beyond par. Though he cannot speak he can read your mind and deliver exactly what you’re looking forward to. I believe he has miles to go in his career. If you’re looking for beer and outstanding food, this is a place to go.

It is a delight to enjoy the food in this restaurant. Ambience is good. Neat and elegant. Service is extraordinary. Food is very tasty. I found only idli and Vada are not that good compared to the standard of other dishes!! I am sure everyone eating in this restaurant will remember for a long time!!

A fine dining restaurant in the Lemon tree Hotel located in HITEC city just opposite to Mindspace. Citrus Cafe is left to the entrance, and it has quite a charm. some seating space before the entrance of the restaurant may be in case of restaurant being full. Also, lot of fancy message printed shirts are framed and pinned on the wall for cool display. even in the entrance of the restaurant and inside there are some more. I liked the bottles arranged in shelves as decorative pieces at the entrance. Now about my dining experience, I liked the dining space, I had dinner buffet here with my mother. It took a while for me to choose the seat because there were many unoccupied ones, one of the staff tried to help me with it but I had to finally choose some seat right besides these artificial plants in the middle of the restaurant. I liked the lightings. The menu of the day was pretty much regular Indian cuisine. There were pickles, dairy section, delicious sweets and raw ice cream stand, soups, Biryani rice (chicken and vegetarian) , fried rice, noodles, pasta and other main cuisine. I served myself thrice, starting with Biryani and some steamed rice accompanied with curries then finished off with Gulab jamun mixed with ice cream. I loved the experience and also they charged so less compared to other hotels that I have been to has so surprised me. It was like I was given some 50% discount.. stay safe and stay hygienic, Thanks.

Visited Lemon tree premier couple of days ago for a team lunch and I must say that this place didn’t disappoint us. Citrus café has a beautiful, cozy sitting space and offered a pretty lavish buffet. With not much time wasting, I started off my meal with their salads. I had their Egg salad, Chicken salad and Fish salad along side corn chaat. The salads were a decent overall. For starters, they offered Hunai style chicken and Ajwaini fish tikka. I just loved their fish tikka which had a beautiful robust taste of mustard to it. It gave a really peppery flavor overall. Along with the non veg starters, they offered paniaram which is a famous south indian breakfast item. It was also well prepared. For mains, I had their Dal tadka, Andhra style fish curry, Paneer tikka masala, Singaporean fried noodles along with assorted veggies in oriental sauce. My favorite dishes of the lot had to be their Dal tadka and Andhra style fish curry. The fish was really tender and gave a really tangy taste. For desserts, I had their Chum chum, cut fruits, rice kheer and double ka meetha. The chum chum was super soft and had a lovely texture to it. I also like their double ka meetha which had appropriate sweetness to it. Overall, my experience with Citrus café was amazing. It is a great place for corporate lunches. I would surely be visiting this place yet again
