wow! I've been coming to Christina's for many years! I loved the food and entertainment - it is amazing!! Great food, great atmosphere, great staff - that s why we keep coming back!!
Thank you Christina's
Excellent Greek food and amazing ambiance. Go on a night with the live musicians and Belly Dancer entertainment. Really adds to the atmosphere. As does the patio on a nice warm summer evening. Food is terrific. Large portions and reasonable prices. Excellent kalamari. Highly recommended.
I was here for breakfast/Lunch on Sunday. We were not happy with the service and food at all.
1. It took more than 45min to have our meal. There was only 1 table with customer when we get there.
2. They server me the end toasted bread with my breakfast
3. Over cooked vege on my daughter lunch.
4. 3 tables who came after us get served before.
So disappointed overall
I'm writing this after just finishing our delicious meal at Christina's seating on their lovely patio filled with healthy beautiful flowers. Love the environment, packed but very accommodating and well worth the little wait that might be necessary. Great service, waiters are super friendly and efficient. In my opinion, this is the best restaurant on the strip!
Visited Christina's couple of days ago. I felt like I was at a restaurant on one of the Greek Islands. There was entertainment, a bouzouki player and a belly dance who were very good. For some people they might find it a little noisy, but that added to the atmosphere and it only lasted while the belly dancer performs. The food was great, especially the grilled octopus, kolokithokeftes (zucchini croquettes) and the kalamari for appetizers. Our entrees consisted of lamb chops, whole fresh grilled sea-bass and rack of lamb. Everything was delicious. We had two bottles of a nice Cabernet Greek wine. Portions are large and well presented so is the service.
The atmosphere and entertainment was so much fun! The belly dancer was energetic and fun. The service is professional and friendly. The food was great, try the rack of Lamb and the Kalamari crispy and very tender. We were in a large group and everyone talked about how delicious their meal was. This is now our favorite place in Greek town.
great overall atmosphere and service. the crowd is on the older side and the place is seemingly more of a family place (greeks primarily). i tried the tested and true thing on the menu the souvlaki on the menu as i've had bad experiences in the past when i order something I don't know - yes their menu is entirely greek. the ambiance is great when your inside. the live music was a bit too loud for us. the service was great throughout and their were no complaints with the food. nothing special though which is why I wouldn't visit again - across the road and in the entire area you will find less expensive areas to eat in.
We went there so many times, and will go again. nice atmosphere (Friday and Saturday) with belly dancer and nice Greek music. Very reasonable prices and nice food
This restaurant is open late and is a favourite...
This restaurant is open late and is a favourite of other restaurant workers. There is a tendency to overorder and doggy bag, so the price really is for for three meals, not two!
The entertainers are fun, the servers attentive, and it is a place where I can take the whole family. the grandkids love the flaming cheese!
The seafood soup is almost a meal in itself, with lots of tasty ingredients and liquid that begs to be mopped up with the complimentary bread.
The desserts always look wonderful, but we never have room for them!
Watch out for the zombies, they can creep up on you...
the patio is a great place to watch the Danforth and the propane heaters make it livable for much longer.
Take the TTC - Danforth parking is a zoo. We can walk it from Queen Street, and we usually need to after our excess!
Fast, courteous service. The food was great as always.

Our server was awesome. Food was pretty good (a very minor 'so-so' comment on the eggplant dip and the taramasalata; the mains were good). My brother-in-law loved the lamb. Not our first time, and for sure we will be back.

Service far too rushed - barely finished chewing a bite when next course was on table. Waiter told us the specials but not their price. Food portions were way too large - we all left nearly half our meal resulting in far too much waste.

i was alone and a tall gentleman served me with grey hair. he was not overly friendly but okay. i went on the friday around 7pm of the Taste of the Danforth. The food was not hot and there were not a lot of people there so it could have been served hot. Also I wanted to taste the house wine before ordering and he refused.

I had made a reservation a couple days before with a special request of a table at the window. Only to find out they don’t take reservations and we could not sit at the window. It kind of ruined our evening and it was quite the trip getting there. Can’t say I’ll ever go back. With all the restaurants in the city they should not be on the reservation list if they do not take reservations. Good was great tho!!

We returned to Christina’s after a memorable experience a few years back, but unfortunately were very disappointed this time around. The service was less than friendly and we felt very rushed, as they cleared up the patio before we’d even finished eating (it was (10pm at this point!). Food was okay, but nothing to write home about. We hope that Christina’s can take this on board and improve, but we will not be visiting again.

We arrived at the restaurant and the table I had reserved was not even made. They were going to sit us at a few small wobbly tables that were uneven and said they weren’t aware of the reservation. Meanwhile I had booked it a week in advanced and called just previously to arriving letting them know I would be running a few minutes late and they were aware of my reservation. I was not pleased with the service. After speaking to a few people plus the manager, they finally set us up at a better table with the booth. But our server had a bit of an attitude the rest of the evening.

This patio is tops when it comes to world-class sophistication. The space is meticulously arranged, with tables set up for parties of one, two or four, with or without an umbrella overhead. The street-front patio has an assortment of hanging baskets and potted plants to give it a tranquil feel amidst the bustle of the city. The cuisine is predominantly Greek and brunch is offered on weekends.
