Full disclosure, I'm a Yankees fan. However, my wife and I love all things baseball and our goal is to visit all of the ballparks. Citi Field was our 15th park and it's honestly a great ballpark. Getting here was super easy and the subway brings you right outside the park. We came for a Mets-Yankees game and it was a really fun atmosphere, lots of heckling, but no fights and just a good, fun rivalry. Drinks were great and they have lots of options, which was a good thing since we had a rain delay and had time to kill. The real standout here was the food and this was some of the best ballpark food we've experienced. My wife loved her lobster roll and I absolutely loved my porchetta sandwich. Ours views of the game were also great and it's a very nice ballpark overall!

Got to the Game late considering we had just flown into Newark and had to drive to Flushing to get to the Stadium. It took awhile to get to the Stadium but we were fortunate to catch the last two innings of the game. Any time my travels lead me to NY and the Mets are playing, I'll be sure to catch a game considering just how nice this Stadium is compared to Yankee Stadium, in fact you can't compare them. Citi Field is a stadium surrounded by seats all the way around and the video screens provide a better baseball experience. Compared to Yankee Stadium which is a ballpark like setting since you have bleachers in the outfield that was a meager attempt to replicate the old stadium, which is poorly designed. LETS GO METS!!

I love Citi Field! Have been here at least 10-15 times. My favorite sports stadium by far in NYC. Citi Field has the best and most diverse food options of the stadiums in the city. Most views if the baseball are great from any seat.

Very loud and energetic for last game of the season. Great service from our waiter Ryan. He was attendative, and got us drinks fast. 10/10, would recommend (that rhymes hehe). Will definitely be returning again next year and requesting Ryan.
Nice place in left field at Citifield. Staff is nice , menu basic . Look , the location presents conditions that if it were a regular restaurant you wouldn't necessarily be happy. But it's at a baseball stadium so it's loud , has a big rush just before game time and servers who are overwhelmed at that rush . But if you go in feeling that it's a time to relax and enjoy yourself it's fine . Wait a little longer for server attention ? Who cares we are in a rain delay . Coffee come without spoons to stir you sweetener ? Use your fork and relax . Panaramic view of the field , video monitors all around (weirdly poor coverage ) so you don't miss a thing . Overall a really good time was had .
The waiter seemed like he had too many tables, but can't be sure. NONE of the food was hot, none. My brother mentioned the fries were cold, he said he'd get new ones, new ones came out quickly but they weren't much warmer than the first batch. I ordered steak and it was maybe warm, literally not one item was above tepid. Drink glasses were never refilled, even though most were either low or empty in the middle of the meal. Sorry but $65 for a warm steak that was tough is insane. Just won't be going back.
We had a great time last night! The restaurant has amazing views of the field and the food and drinks were great! But what really made our experience here the best was our waiter Raul B. He was so friendly and welcoming, we felt like we knew him for years! He couldn't do enough to make everything wonderful! He made us laugh, service was excellent and recommendations were perfect and he took some great photos of us with the view in the background.

Came here for a meal waiting for the second game of the double header to start. We've dined here before but we were reluctant to come back due to the service we experienced last time. However, our waiter Ryan was phenomenal. He got us everything fast and was very easy going. The previous time we were here the old waiter with a ponytail failed to check up on us, barely talked to us the whole night. Ryan was a great guy to talk to while we were waiting for our meals, we felt like family talking to him, the complete opposite experience we had from our last time! The food took a while to come but when it did, safe it say it was underwhelming. Drinks were amazing, will definitely be returning next season, hopefully with a revised menu
The day that we were there was a rainy day, where ultimately the game was cancelled. Attendance was light, but this location was fairly crowded as people got out of the elements until the game got cancelled. The service was excellent, the waiter was very attentive and since we didn't get to see any baseball was engaging to speak with. The fried mozzarella was excellent and the specialty drinks also excellent. I had trouble rating the ambiance. If you're looking for a great location to watch a game, this certainly is it, but the furniture, specifically the chairs are worn and in need of repair or replacement.

Citi Field is a very impressive stadium and I was honestly very surprised by that. First of all, it was a really easy train ride on the 7 from Manhattan. The old Home Run Apple from Shea is out front. Once you make your way through the gates, the rotunda greets you and I found it to be absolutely gorgeous. The Mets Hall of Fame Museum has a lot of nice pieces on display, including their World Series trophies. I easily checked out the museum for a good half hour, so I would recommend checking that out. My seats were in the 300 section behind home plate. I figure this their higher end seating since they needed to check tickets to ensure you actually belonged in this level. Food prices are pretty much on par with other baseball parks I've been to, but I found a Dole Whip, which was pretty refreshing on a hot and humid NY day. The park itself is really lovely and I totally had a blast, even though my SF Giants lost.

$40 to park my car. I ordered a pastrami sandwich at the Mike Piazza Club, the Mets website advertises their pastrami sandwiches "pastrami piled high". Does that pastrami look "piled high" to you? "Piled high" if you're an ant. And it was fatty. There was NOTHING RIGHT about this awful garbage sandwich. And the Mets lost. Again.

Pleasent experience. Waitress erina was profound and professional. The busboy Albert however was a complete lunatic. We went to go join the line to get food at the buffet and he almost tackled us saying we did not have a wristband therefore we could not get food. We were never given a wristband... during our meal he kept screaming saying things such as mets suck, jets suck, and Bartolo Colon is overweight. I don't understand how this is fine dining with comments and behavior such as this.

Great place to watch batting practice or part of a game. The brunch was good but could have used some other items and the best tables (down below by the windows weren't being used. Overall, I'll be bacj...
