Had one night in Scottsdale at the end of a Southwest trip, and chose Citizen Public House based on the wonderful Yelp reviews.
The earliest we could get a same day reservation was 8:45 PM, so we had drinks and appetizers elsewhere. Upon arriving 15 minutes early for our reservation, we were promptly seated. We enjoyed the cocktails. We shared the OMFG chopped salad, which was just as advertised! Such a unique mix of flavors and textures - I really enjoyed this dish. The server explained that this is a signature dish at all restaurants by the same owner, which was neat.
Because we already had appetizers beforehand, I opted for a second appetizer as my main course. The yellowfin crudo was absolutely delicious. Very fresh and crisp tasting. My husband really enjoyed the short ribs - the meat was melt-in-your-mouth.
Service was good. The server was definitely busy and apologized several times for our wait, which was fairly minimal. The bill was certainly high, but on par with what you would expect given quality of food and atmosphere. The one knock I would say was that the restaurant was somewhat dark and loud.
Would definitely recommend!
