Feeling like some snack / tapas-like food whilst staying in the pretty seaside village of Seamill, I checked Tripadvisor and found just the spot, @30 mins walk from my hotel, just enough to build up an appetite. What a great find - I suspect the old waiting room of the adjacent train station, the menu is attractive and reasonably priced. My chicken wings were significantly above average and I had a ‘starter’ paella which in my view was a main course, filled with juicy chicken, prawn and peppers. Service from both David and Natalie was exceptional - friendly, prompt, efficient and professional, they were absolute stars. My apple crumble has just arrived and, if anything, it could be the best dish of the day….

Great food and drink, with friendly staff. Was very quiet, which might be down to the extensive roadworks in West Kilbride. You’ve got the choice of tapas or other dishes. A free liqueur was a welcomed addition.

Stunning restaurant, food and service is excellent. The menu is reasonably priced and has a great range of tapas as well as a grill menu. I would recommend the burgers and steaks. First class dining experience in a great location.

Over the years a number of places have tried to make something of the old station house in West Kilbride, and at long last we have one that works. Cita Tapas is a lovely restaurant that offers a fantastic meal. Me and my wife had left it late for Valentine's Day, and wanted to go out for a meal, and was able to get a last minute reservation here. Great interment settings, friendly staff and a good menu to select from. Good prices and will certainly be back again in future.

We had been recommended Cito and wanted to try it. Their new menu is really exciting. The meal was super and the waitress, Geo, was one of the best we have had in a long time. She was able to answer questions and give us the best experience. I needed to avoid certain salad ngredients and a salad was produced without them and it was delicious. The food was of a very high standard and Jessica, the chef was skilled in producing food to please. We look forward to returning.

Cita Tapas did not disappoint, a lovely venue with friendly staff and most importantly AMAZING food!🤤 The staff were super friendly and everything was priced really reasonably for it being tapas! We got a mixture of tapas dishes from their tapas menu and each one was delicious 🤤 ▪️ Ginger and chilli beef ▪️ Pil pil prawns with chilli and garlic ▪️ Potatas Bravas and onion rings ▪️Scallops and black pudding ▪️ Chicken, chorizo and prawn paella We also got some chicken tempura which I forgot to take a picture of! 🤦🏼‍♀️ Cita is definitely worth a visit if you find yourself somewhere within Ayrshire, you will not be disappointed!

Excellent evening meal, easy to let the train take the strain and enjoy a glass or two! I thought it would only be tapas but there is a balanced menu for those who want a "main meal" event. Attentive young staff guided us through our tapas choice and we were not disappointed, mini paella , aubergine and honey were outstanding - wish we had gone for 6 scallops on black pudding instead of 3! Mini carafes of wine and a freebie limoncello washed down an extensive shared cheeseboard. Quick trip back down the line with evening views of Arran - perfecto!!

Well, so far not great because I can't even get a table booked! Called at 10:45am to book a table for 2, I was hung up on as soon as I said that. Tried to call back, went straight to voice mail. Called a few minutes later and the call was hung up again after a couple of seconds of silence (restaurant background noise could be heard). Oh well, I guess you don't even want customers in the door!
