Le Citrus — Restaurant in Saint-Malo

We booked a return visit to this restaurant, which was our favourite restaurant in Dinard, when we were last there in 2023, but the attitude of the patron was very poor this year, thus we have no intention of returning to this restaurant ever again. We had no issue with the food, although it lacked seasoning. The bread was brioche burger buns, which was a surprise for a high quality restaurant, but the issue that we had related to us requesting a French Coffee (like a Gaelic Coffee but with Cognac instead). The patron confirmed that they "knew how to make one" and I asked her for the brand of the cognac, which I didn't recognise. I asked her for something similar to Hennessy VS. The patron returned with a tumbler glass with coffee & foam, (rather than cream) and a straw! There was no sugar in it and it tasted awful. I mentioned that we were very disappointed with it and suggested that I show her how to make a French Coffee, an offer which she declined. When we received the bill, we were shocked to discover that she had 2 items covering the French coffee, one of €2.40 for the coffee and €20.00 for the Cognac. When I questioned this she replied that she used XO Brandy, rather than a VS Brandy. She was not prepared to reduce the cost of this "item" and to compound matters, she increased the bill by €8.00 to cover the cost of the Lambig de Bretagne (which was omitted from the...

I have to say, this is the only negative expérience we have had in Dinard this summer. We usually come to Dinard every year as family has a business here. We know well the restaurants around so we know where to go. But sometimes we try new places, as we might discover hidden gems. We book a table at citrus at 20:30, as that was the latest service. We had some commitments earlier so we arrived 10 minutes late. At our arrival, the manager just tell us the booking was cancelled, even when they had an empty table in front of us. We were shocked 😮. We complained as they could have call us before cancelling. She just argued that she had other things to do… We found this policy extremely disappointing. It’s not only not-customer oriented, she did not offer any apology. She just behaved as if we were in a school canteen. I have never seen this in Dinard ever… Definitely I do not recommend this...
