    The food and service were perfect. It was just the place I was looking for, and the wood-fired pizza crust was done to perfection. I highly recommend it. The staff was delightful and very attentive. I will definitely be going back soon.

    Like if you had a traditional Italian family owned restaurant with fresh pasta, full bar and a cool vibe. Think of an Italian “Cheers” where everyone knows your name AND if you never had wood fired pizza you need to experience that.

    My husband and I enjoyed our 30th-anniversary dinner at Cristo's Wood-Fired Pizza and Pasta. Everything was wonderful. We received a warm personal welcome from the owners and servers. We ordered an appetizer, wine, and entrees and shared a slice of decadent chocolate cake. If you have not had an opportunity to visit Cristo's, be sure to try it out!

    The food was SO good! And all of our Celiacs ate safely and deliciously. Fantastic portions, great flavor, and the service was excellent too. Don’t know what to expect, as it’s in a building next to a used car lot, but it was so cute inside and we loved our dinner. Would definitely go back.

    We have had dinner here several times, the food is always wonderful! I highly recommend the spicy shrimp scampi, the shrimp is cooked to perfection. The staff is top notch, always very friendly. So glad to have a good restaurant in the neighborhood!
