I went to Citrus Club with some friends this weekend on a trip down to SF. It's at the park end of the Haight, not more than a block or so away from the McDonalds. The wait was a bit long, and the tables were pretty close together. Not the best place for a claustrophobic to eat. I had the Peanut Noodles, which while good, were still a bit plain and bland compared to peanut sauce dishes I've had elsewhere. Not too spectacular. What was spectacular however were the edemame tossed in a garlic soy sauce mix. These were so amazingly good, I'd consider coming here for a double or triple takeout order of just them.

One of the last few reasons to brave the traffic, parking, tourists, etc to come to Haight for a night out. I really like the Citrus Club. I guess other funky pan-asian restaurants have opened up in the last few years that make it a little less unique, but still, for me, sometimes it's all about the noodle house and this is a damn fine noodle house. My trick: have them add shitake mushrooms to whatever you order.

the food here is definitely good, and the servings are very large. but not all of the dishes are quite right. i think it's that it's not quite thai, not quite vietnamese, so you don't know exactly what to expect. for example, i was definitely hoping for something different from their tom kha soup. the ambiance is good, and you can sit at the bar or at a table. it's always fairly dark in there, at lunch or dinner. they have a good selection of beers too.
