Christo's

Ok this place is amazing. I'd give it more than five stars if I could. Extremely friendly staff welcomed us as soon as we entered. We had a one year old in tow and warm welcomes are a little less frequent now at restaurants so immediately we felt relieved. It really sucks feeling like you're upsetting staff just because you want to have a family meal out. It's a very nice place. I would say classy but not like stuffy classy. I was wearing a polo, jeans and a diaper bag and didn't feel judged or out of place. Just a very welcoming lovely spot. Our server was incredible; I believe she said her name was Kat - she went above and beyond to take care of all of us and made some great recommendations that really took our experience to another level. The menu is not vast but is diverse - you'll have to resist ordering every appetizer because they're all great but you'll definitely need room for dinner. Large but not overly large portion sizes and, I mean this without any hyperbole at all, sincerely the best single pasta dish I've had outside of Italy. I had the Pomodore with grilled chicken and I've been thinking about it all day since. We went for lunch and I seriously considered going back for dinner just to have it again. They also had my favorite Italian beer (Peroni) so they get extra points for that as well. If you're looking for great, authentic Italian food this place is a can't miss. I'm truly annoyed this doesn't have a five star rating across the board

My friends and I always try out new spots for restaurant week! For this week it feel on the eeek of my bday and we wanted Italian!We used to go to tomaso's but haven't been in a while I think they may have closed. This is our favorite spot now and my Italian husband is super picky! Everything he got from the menu he loved! Caprese, Caesar salad, tiramisu, Veal Braciole! I got the veal meatballs, tiramisu, jumbo shrimp!The lemon drop was good and so was the manhattan! My only negative feedback is that we received our wine immediately after we ordered our other cocktails with no time in between. I also ordered the soup of the day and got the salad instead but the server was so kind I didn't mind as much not getting it. All in all, it was a comfortable spot and the food was wonderful!

First, i have lived in this neighborhood for over 20 years until i moved back in 2013, we were looking for a place to have date night at the last minute and we thought hey lets try Christos. It is super cute and cozy the staff were so friendly and welcoming. I was impressed. We weren't crazy hungry so we split a pasta dish and a greek salad. I could not have been happier with my meal. Let's be honest...its hard to mess up a salad; but I've seen it happen, unfortunately. This salad was crisp, fresh and perfectly dressed. No complaints. The creamy pesto pasta was amazingly tasty and perfect sauced. Ill be honest i kept using my spoon to scoop the sauce..delicious! We ended the meal with the flourless chocolate cake...holy cow! Melt in your mouth creamy not overly sweet heaven on a plate! I absolutely loved this place. Im so angry that i didnt try it before but i will definitely be going back to try different things.

My wife and I went here for our 35th Anniversary. It is a family-owned restaurant since 1987. The food was delicious and a cup of soup of the day, salad and freshly made bread were included with the dinner entrée. The calamari was the best we have ever had. My wife had the veal piccata and said it was so delicious. She knows I like steak and mushrooms and pointed out the New York steak with sauteed mushrooms so I gave it a try even though I had my eye on something else. My steak was tender, seasoned impeccably, and cooked to perfection (medium rare). The server arrived quickly and provided professional, knowledgeable, attentive, and helpful service throughout the evening. Overall it was a wonderful meal, great service great ambiance, and moderately priced for exquisite food. We will be back.

What a charming restaurant hidden right in front of us. I have driven past this place a dozen times and wished we would stop, and finally I had to kill some time (my car was at the mechanic) so I enjoyed an appetizer by myself. Amazing service, delicious sausage/peppers and wonderful company at the bar. A lot of regulars, but everyone made me feel welcome. Highly recommend.

Another great night at Christos and served by our favorite waiter - Santino! Went with my wife and another couple and had a bottle of Austin Hope Cabernet Along with stuffed mushrooms, Veal Saltimboco, Veal Picatta, Chicken Genovese and Veal Christo. We had a few deserts as well with Tiramisu and spumoni ice cream. And to top it off- shots of Amaretto and Sambuca.Great night and reasonable priced. I don't think it should be listed as $$$ but in today's world it should be $$. Great value for great food and service.

From the wonderful service from all staff members, to the consistently delicious food and comfortable atmosphere... Christo's has become one of our families GO-TOs. HIGHLY recommend this Italian restaurant. You're guaranteed to have a fabulous evening here.

Christo's... you never disappoint. Love coming for Happy Hour now. Not that I don't love dinner... but eating earlier throughout the week... it's just our new jam. Happy Hour menu is off the charts delicious!We ordered the Escargot , the shrimp scampi, the bruschetta and the stuffed mushrooms. Drinks make by Chris.... Exceptional. I just love it.

We had a great time at Christo's. 5 of us went for restaurant week. The food, service and prices were great! We enjoyed the 4 course meal during restaurant week. The place is more old school, typical Italian decor, martinis, good service, good food. Even tho we had reservations, we had to wait about 15 minutes for a table for 5, not a big deal but there's really no place to wait. The bar was full of others waiting as well so we hung out at the front door which we kept shifting every time someone walked in, but there wasn't really another place. I recommend benches outside for the overflow. We all ordered from the special menu but the normal menu has lots of yummy options too. We commented we would return to try. My first course choice was the Veal Meatballs but they were out, Really? that's weird since it's on the special menu, instead ordered a salad & the lemon rice soup, OMG delicious. I could ordered a big bowl of that delicious, lemony soup and be happy. Next got the Veal Braciole which was very tasty with the pine nuts and raisins in a tomato sauce. Others ordered the Caprese or Bruschetta followed by the Pork Chop, Jumbo Shrimp or the grilled Salmon. We shared the Limoncello Mascarpone Cake, Tiramisu, Chocolate mousse and Gelato, the options for dessert. We enjoyed all of it and was very pleased with the complimentary choice of a glass of white, red or rosè.

Had dinner here tonight with a friend. The poached salmon and vegetables were to die for. Saturday night is my favorite night to go there because they have lemon rice soup with salad with your entree. The Great Santino was our server. He has been there for over thirty years. A person doesn't work at one place for that long without good management.Starting Monday August 5th, Alexi's Grill (which has a very similar menu) is celebrating its 30th anniversary and will go all week. The prices are going to be inexpensive, but you have to make reservations - do it tonight!
