   Food and wait service as always, excellent. This one time they sat us, a party of 4, with a group of 25-30 people in a small room in the back of the restaurant. The noise was above hearing range amongst us. There were plenty of open tables as we walked into the restaurant at 5:30pm and yet they still sat us in the little room with a big group/family. I get it...maximize revenue and table space but really, couldn't you have expected a noisy crowd and set us away from them?

   Our server, Cat, was friendly and very helpful. Kudos to her! Her personality shined and she made us all feel happy! The restaurant was busy with lots of people and everyone was enjoying the delicious food and having lots of Merry fun! We will continue to recommend the restaurant as it always comes through for us by way of good food and friendly waiters and waitresses. We've been coming for many years and will continue to enjoy the food and the ambiance.

   There's a reason this restaurant is a Phoenix landmark. Consistently great service, wonderful ambiance and the food second to none. We did not feel rushed, it felt like we were in an Italian home. Being a Phoenix native, it's nice to have a place that I can count on being here year after year.

   Food was delicious. Lots of menu choices, from pasta, fish, chicken, veal dishes, and daily specials. Soup and salad come with entree. I had veal parmesan, my wife had chicken piccata. Crusty bread was fabulous.

   Christo's is one of the best Italian restaurants in Phoenix. The meals always include fresh bread, soup and salad. They have one of the best Fettucine Alfredo anywhere. We usually get is as a side to share for the table along with our main entree. The Halibut Athenian is wonderful. In all of our visits, the only entree item I have had that is not up to standard is the baked Sole Meuniere (it is soggy fried fish). Two irresistible desserts include Tiramisu or the Limoncello Cake.

   This was a wonderful dining experience for "old school" Italian food. The portions were large, the flavors were delicious, and the prices were very reasonable. What set this experience apart was the service. The restaurant has hired an older gentleman whose job it is to visit each table to welcome you, explain the history of the restaurant, guide you through the menu, and periodically check on you to make sure everything is "right." In addition, our waiter was attentive, friendly, personable and helpful, and seemed to be generally interested in us as guests of the restaurant. You just don't get this level of service in other restaurants these days, unless you are paying prices that are double the prices at Christo's. I'm an east coast guy, and our restaurants have a lot to learn in terms of how to treat customers the way Christo's treats each of theirs. Outstanding dining experience at a very reasonable price. I would eat there once every two weeks if I lived in the area.

    First time dining here and Christo's lived up to all the great reviews. Service was terrific. Our waitress, "Cat" was personable and had great suggestions. All six of us had something different and it was all wonderful. We're all looking forward to coming back very soon. Highly recommend!
