Cristo's NY Style Pizza

Excellent. Excellent excellent. Great thin crust veggie pizza. This is a small mom and pop pizza joint in a strip mall that lives up to its name NY style pizza! So well done. I went on a Tuesday night so it wasn't crowded at all. Quiet music in the background and great service. I watched people come in and out all night for take out. Great idea for next time. I'll be back.

We moved here two years ago and have struggled to find a place we actually enjoyed enough to return. This is our third visit to Cristo's and it's been amazing each time. I'm used to the Italian food in New England and this reminds me of the food back home. The potato gnocchi is incredible, as is the vodka sauce. Pizzas? Delicious This is as close to Boston Italian food that we've found so far! Definitely recommend to anyone missing Boston

Went here for dinner on our last night in town, during a visit to see our grandson. My daughter had been there before and was a fan, but we had not. Turned out to be a great choice. At our table, we had the eggplant Parm sub, cheese ravioli, and tortellini Bolognese. All 3 were home runs. And the garlic knots for an appetizer were very good also. No one at our table ordered pizza, but we did see one come out, and it looked great. Our next visit to town, we're going to insist on pizza from Cristo's one night.

Cristo's Ristorante and Pizzeria is a hidden gem nestled in a small Raleigh shopping center. From the moment we stepped in, every staff member treated us warmly and was very attentive.The Rice Balls were a savory delight, oozing with cheese and encased in a perfectly crispy fried breading. The Penne Cristo was very yummy, and we chose a crisp Caesar salad that was very fresh and tasty.However, the true superstar was undeniably the Grandma pizza. Thin, crispy, and topped with just the right amount of cheese and sauce, it surpassed all expectations.The service was warm and attentive, adding to the overall charm of our experience. Despite the hour-long drive, Cristo's Grandma pizza alone is worth the journey. We eagerly anticipate our next visit!

Pretty good restaurant. Sweet servers. I recommend getting the Brooklyn, which is the margherita looking pizza. We also got the namesake Cristo's pizza which we weren't fans of but our 2.5 year old daughter really enjoyed it! Our server said she liked the supreme the most so we'll probably try that next time.Super DO NOT recommend getting the cheesecake. It was so eggy and crumbly and dry and tasted like what someone who was trying to bake for the first time in their life would have made.Free soda refills. They charge extra for extra sauces. There's a sign up front that mentions it.When you go to the restroom to the far right of the restaurant in the back the ground slopes upward so keep an eye out for that. I tripped walking to it.Would return and try different items.

Since a lot of pizza places are closed on Mondays, ordered take out from Cristos. I can't speak to any of their other dishes, but the Brooklyn (Margherita) pizza was mediocre at best :/Heavy tomato sauce with chunks of garlic and the dough was lackluster. Can't complain about cheese.... but yeah as a pizza snob, this was disappointing :/

Great pizza coming from a New Yorker. We ordered three pies, two regular and one with pepperoni. Their mozzarella sticks were good too! Friendly staff and the place has a tiny bar to sit at or a nice area to sit for dinning in.

14 inch regular pizza- crispy crust, good cheese, sauce that reminds me of Brooklyn. Slices not paper thin but not too thick. The riceballs were very crispy made with panko. The sauce that came with it was good too-nice and mild. Fast service through delivery.

Let me first say that I'm usually hesitant going to local Italian restaurants because of the number of mediocre meals that would've been cheaper and better if I made them myself at home. Cristo's is the exact opposite of that. The restaurant itself is unassuming and doesn't scream "my food is amazing" but trust me, THE FOOD IS AMAZING. A group of 7 of us ordered a bunch of things to share them family-style and nothing we had was below a 4/5. It was all so good. Caesar salad - dressing was bomb and perfect amount of dressing and croutons. The bread they gave us was super fresh and delicious. The main events - the pasta and pizza blew my mind. My two favorites, the rigatoni bolognese and the pineapple hot honey pizza were easily 5/5 and if I could I'd rate them higher, some of the best pasta and pizza I've eaten in a good while. The other pizza, the Brooklyn was also delicious and I recommend it. The gnocchi was probably the only thing I would give a 4/5 and it's probably only because it had to go up against the rest of the dishes. The surprise dish of the night was the pear pasta! Definitely something different, a fun change of pace, and the perfect dish to share with people if you want a little bit of richness. Overall, 5/5 will be back as soon as I possibly can. The only picture I took was at the end because I was enjoying the food so much I forgot. My bad.

Good pizza. Great service. People are always nice and it's a nicer pizzeria than others. It is a bit pricey but honestly you get what you pay for. Their regular pizza is amazing and they have really great rice balls!
