Citrus at Social brings a fresh and vibrant restaurant design to Social Hollywood. The menu is the culinary creation of Michel Richard, whose former flagship Citrus on Melrose Avenue (voted best restaurant in America by Traveler's magazine) fully established him as a pioneer in French/California cuisine. Chosen by the James Beard Foundation as Outstanding Chef 2007, Richard is recognized for his Citrus concept as well as the elegant Citronelle in Santa Barbara, Baltimore, Philadelphia, Washington DC, Tokyo and Bistro M in San Francisco.

Editorial Review for Social Hollywood – by Sarah Colombo

In Short
First debuted in the '20s as one of Tinsletown's original haunts, the renovated landmark features a contemporary American eatery, which is the latest venture from Asia de Cuba creator Jeffrey Chodorow. Draped in exquisite chandeliers and dressed in plush velvets, an adjoining bar garners the attention of Hollywood's current darlings. The renovated 20,000-plus square foot venue also includes a game room, screening room and plenty of event rental space.

I went to Citrus Social with a party of 11 for a 30th birthday dinner/party this weekend. Upon entering the restaurant, our party was directed to the "bistro bar" where they had two dinner tables set up for us. Initially, we were confused about our placement but didn't want to give the restaurant too hard of a time. As dinner progressed, people started trickling in and the music was turned up (blasting!). At this point, we felt like we were eating dinner in the middle of a club. After dinner, we were asked to move over to the actual restaurant area (where we shouldve been placed initially) for dessert in order to clear the area for other patrons who were there for the bar. My friends were upset about the entire experience and decided to talk to the manager to complain about the situation. Upon making reservations, we were not informed that our party was not going to be placed in the actual restaurant. The manager and event coordinator were not apologetic or remorseful for the awful experience. They didnt acknowledge that they had dissatisfied customers or that it was for a special event. My friends and I are not strangers to fine dining or the overall LA scene. We have NEVER witnessed such rude customer service by a restaurant, let alone one where you just spent close to $1000.00 on dinner. I must say that the overall ambiance of the place is nice/elegant...but the manager's arrogance, attitude, and dismissive behavior will definitely prevent me from ever stepping foot in that place again. AND...on top of it all, the food wasn't good at all. The waitress ranted and raved about their fries/frites, but trust me -- you can get the same thing at Fatburger. You are not missing out. If you want to be treated without respect, go to this restaurant.

Pros: ambiance

Cons: customer service, arrogant management

I love going to this club on a Friday, well for one its looks great when you walk inside. This great venue has a hot and many rooms all set up to be social so you can actually talk if you are tired of dancing. I promote Friday & Saturday nights at Social as well as many other Hollywood clubs, email me for guest list with "Guest List" in the subject line and your phone number for contact in the body. My email is M_Zdar@hotmail com. If your on my guest list you will have no problems getting in the door and if you contact me ahead, i can come outside and get you depending on who you are. This is a venue I would highly recommend.

Pros: Many rooms, set up like a mansion, great look, social vibe.

Cons: Hard to get in if your not on a guest list. Dance floor can get packed.
