    Or first visit here (it won’t be the last). Quaint, old style ristorante with a neighborhood atmosphere. Service was friendly and efficient. Lunch menu ample and varied (although we all had a special.). Food was ample and quite good in a home style fashion. Definitely recommend.

    Celebrated our 3 year wedding anniversary here, just like our past anniversaries. I will never celebrate anywhere else for as long as Christo’s is around. Our reserved table was already prepped and ready for as soon as we arrived, and they remembered that our note about it being our wedding anniversary because they put rose petals on the table and wished us a very happy anniversary! Christo’s makes us feel like family. Our server was Cat, who we loved very much and she makes the best Shirley temples. Although it was a very busy night (not only was it Saturday, it was also Valentine’s weekend), the staff and our server Cat were very attentive. We got our drinks, table bread and soup right away. My husband and I love Saturdays because of the Greek soup. It’s the best soup I’ve ever had! For our entrees I had the chicken limone and my husband had the veal Parmesan. Dinner was fantastic and authentically Italian. We especially love Christo’s because the food is very reasonably priced for everything that’s included; each entree comes with table bread, soup and a hearty sized salad. For our anniversary, we were surprised with two slices of cake that were just amazing. It was the perfect touch to end the night. My husband and I almost forgot to have our picture taken until Cat suggested we take a photo. We love that Christo’s makes us feel like family and we will always choose to celebrate our anniversary here. We look forward to the next time!

    We have been coming here for years and any other time the review would be great including value and food. . For some reason the food vs cost (value) did not meet usual expectations. service was part of overall expectation and it did not meet usual expectations. We have been coming for years and will take this as a one off

    We had a reservation for 7. We arrived 8 minutes early. However, we were told we would have to wait. Multiple tables were seated ahead of us & 30 minutes passed. I asked if we were going to be seated anytime soon because we’d been waiting for 30 minutes. We were told a table was ready for us (go figure, because multiple people were seated ahead of us). We were seated. Once seated, we found that the menu was not what we expected. It was a single page. Only 4 appetizers were offered. The meals were 3 courses otherwise. We waited for our waiter to arrive and then let him know that we would be leaving because we were displeased with the menu. We went home hungry.

    Didn’t know they were having a special menu for Valentine’s Day when I had made reservations. Was not happy with the special menu. Very expensive. Our waiter was not very attentive.  We have been going to Crystal‘s for a very long time very disappointed
