    My friend & I try different restaurants for lunch regularly, some new to us or newly opened. Since Citizens Public House in old town Scottsdale only opens for dinner, we opted for late lunch/early dinner visit. We ate light! Tried the Original chopped salad. It was delicious and beautiful! A bit pricey but worth it! Will not find quality ingredients in any other salad anywhere! The pesto buttermilk dressing was perfect. Our server brought it to the table and asked if we’d like him to mix it.. we said yes.! Lovely touch! White cloth table set a refined touch to the “pub style” setting. Can’t wait to return for dinner!

    We had a fantastic experience during our recent visit to Citizen Public House in Scottsdale! The food was delicious. We enjoyed their well-known chopped salad and crab cakes. Our server Toree was incredibly knowledgeable about the menu options and current news involving other restaurants in the restaurant group. We were aware of The Gladly, but not Beginner’s Luck, and the soon to open Minnow. We appreciated Toree’s friendly personality and professionalism. We often have friends and family visit us in Phoenix. We plan to visit all restaurants in the group!

    Good food but Very long wait late for our food, over an hour. Wish our waitress would have been honest about it instead of stringing us along
