Citron is one of my favorite places in Rockridge. The food is purely California-French and done very well. The menu changes pretty frequently and is mostly seasonally inspired.
Their wine list is quite excellent as they employ a full-time sommelier to my knowledge. The chef's tasting menu has the option of a selected pairing which I wholeheartedly recommend.
Citron has two pleasantly surprising but little known facts:
1) The dessert is awesome. Every time I have gone the desserts have been innovative, perfectly executed, and accompanied by a great selection of dessert wines or espresso.
2) Brunch. It's really one of the best places to get a proper brunch. I had a meyer lemon eggs benedict that was perfect.
Classy ambiance, never terribly crowded. A real find in Rockridge.
