You must visit here - it’s so good! The food the service and atmosphere are amazing! I don’t remember the last time I came to a restaurant that had food this good with friendly service and live music! Must try the saganaki and or course the souvlaki!
Great atmosphere, amazing entertainment. Tommy was over the top attentive and wonderful to have. We spent hours here because it was so entertaining. Great apps, hefty portions but mostly a fun lively environment.
Excellent meal, drinks, dessert, and atmosphere at Christina's! Our server, Tommy was top notch and truly cares about your experience here. Would highly recommend to enjoy this lovely spot ☺️
The food was delicious and service was great! We had the pork and lamb souvlaki dinners and the meat was very tender and tasty. Tommy is very attentive and friendly. We will be back for sure.
I recently dined at Christina’s on the Danforth, and the experience was absolutely delightful! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with a warm and welcoming atmosphere that set the tone for the evening. Our server, Tommy, was exceptional. His attentiveness and friendly demeanor made our dining experience even more enjoyable. He took the time to explain the menu, offered great recommendations, and ensured that we had everything we needed throughout the meal. We started with the fried Cheese - DELICIOUS!!! The grilled squid was another highlight – tender, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. The salad with butterfly shrimp was fresh and vibrant, with the shrimp adding a delightful touch of sweetness. The garlic bread was the perfect accompaniment, rich with buttery garlic flavor. For our main course, we had three skewers that were absolutely amazing. Each skewer was cooked just right, with juicy, tender meat that was full of flavor. The portion sizes were generous, and every dish was presented beautifully. Overall, our experience at Christina’s was outstanding, thanks in large part to Tommy’s excellent service. The combination of delicious food, a cozy ambiance, and top-notch service made for a memorable evening. I highly recommend Christina’s on the Danforth to anyone looking for a fantastic dining experience!
First time visitor, and let me tell you, I’ll be back! The atmosphere was super cozy like you were having dinner with family. Tommy, our server, was so hospitable and made us feel welcomed into the Christina’s family from the moment we showed up. He went out of his way to ensure we had everything we needed, and even gave us complimentary bread for the table. The food was high quality at a very reasonable price. My grilled calamari and crispy zucchini were incredible! The tzatziki served with it must have been house made because it’s the best I’ve ever had. 10/10 recommend, especially on weekend evenings when they have entertainment. I’ll be back very soon to try more dishes :)
Great era, excellent good, extraordinary Greek beer and lovely, fantastic staff. Thanks to Tommy for making our dining experience do great.We had super cool beers, greek salad, Imam and Chickens. They offered complimentary seasoned breads to us, as well. Amazing! Highly recommended.A must see in Toronto.
Thank you for an amazing night at Christina's! The food, the atmosphere, the service, and the hospitality was phenomenal!! You made us feel like home, we travel to Toronto every year from Michigan and in 40 years this was the best time we ever had!! Our servers were top notch and the food was amazing! Tender lamb kabobs, potatoes were delicious and the best Horatiko salad ever, just like Greece! The music, the Bouzouki player were perfect and the singers, all three of them were out of this world, nailing all our favorite songs with perfection! Thank you for a night to remember! We'll be back for sure!!!
Incredibly overpriced for potatoes rice and chicken.
Good was good- pork souvlaki served hot although a little chewy with rice and potatoes as is customary. Very good appetizers and esp Greek salad. Dessert was 3 rather flight calls with bot much flavour other than the sprinkle of cinnamon. Parking: It was busy and I parked on the street. Fairly easy to find.
Food was great! You definitely taste the difference between authentic Greek cuisine and fast food.
Ordered with Uber. HORRIBLE chicken in wine sauce. For $31 I would expect a chicken breast and not a drumstick/thigh with hardly any sauce on top and a horribly soggy skin. The potatoes were not the nice lumpy mashed potatoes, but big pieces of potatoes mixed with some mashed potato. Tasteless, Cold which is understandable because it was with Uber. The pork gyro wrap was not much better. There was more onion in it than there was meat
Just terrible
We went Saturday night and had Herald as our sever. He really took care of us. I had the sea bass which Herald recommended and it was delicious. They have live music and a belly dancer. We had an amazing night with the fun entertainment, amazing server and the owner who always makes you feel very welcoming. One of our favourite places to go. Highly recommend.
I recently had the pleasure of dining at Christina s on Danforth, and I can say it was an unforgettable experience. The food was absolutely amazing every dish was delicious and expertly prepared. A special mention has to go to our server, Elena, who made the evening even more enjoyable. She was attentive, personable, and went above and beyond to ensure our experience was perfect. Elenas knowledge of the menu helped us make great choices, and her friendly, welcoming attitude made us feel right at home. Overall, Christina s on The Danforth is a must-visit for anyone looking for top-notch food and service. I can t wait to return!
Great food..service and atmosphere
Went to this Greek culinary gem on the Danforth on Saturday. What an experience! Amazing food, generous portions, attentive kind staff. Chris the owner made us feel so welcome whenever he sees us. He took care of us to make sure the table we were in brought us closest to the entertainment and made sure our experience was top notch and even made sure to catch us before we left to make sure everything was perfect. We traveled two hours one way to have dinner and an evening of entertainment at Christinas and its well worth the drive. They not only offer authentic amazing Greek and Mediterranean food, they also provide entertainment each weekend. The belly dancer is extraordinary and even does a fire show. A must see! Even though we dont understand Greek the singers gave such riveting and engaging performances. This place is so busy and packed eveytime we come I would recommend booking a reservation. Its been two days since weve been there and we are already talking about when we will be coming back.
Popped in for lunch today. A warm and cozy spot out of the cold. It was almost empty, but we were warmly greeted by Herald who told us to choose where wed like to sit. The food was really delicious. I had moussaka and my husband had the pork souvlaki. One of the best moussakas Ive ever had with lots of meat and my husband really liked the pork too. Generous portions, we couldnt finish it all and took home leftovers. The dolmades were served warm and very yummy. Ive seen Christinas from the road before but never eaten there until today. We will definitely be back. Reasonable prices for tasty food with friendly staff. Thanks for the dessert Herald!
The best Greek restaurant ever. The service is always great. The food is so delicious that you will be a repeat customer like myself. The best greek salad hands down. If your on the Danforth give this place a try, I promise you that you will not be disappointed.
My family and I had a great time for lunch here. The food was super tasty and authentic. We recommend the dips and salads (we didn t try any of their meat mains). Our server Tommy was great. He was super funny, kind and sociable and definitely created a great atmosphere. Definitely go here for lunch or whatever occasion. Thanks so much!
Very cozy place for a weekend hang out with friends. Tommy was a fun and attentive server, and let us stay for long girls talk. Food was great and reasonable as well.
Initially i wasn t even heading to Christinas but while standing on the sidewalk Tommy said hi and gestured to us , hey guys come on in with the friendliest disposition, so we went in , and am i glad we did , the food was fantastic and the service was amazing, Tommy is just an amazing guy and host , cant wait to go back .
Great dancing and atmosphere. Tommy was a fantastic host. Food was delish Food : 5/5
I was deeply disappointed with my take out order. Let me start off by saying the food was really good and the servers were super friendly but the portion I received was pitiful! I paid $27 for a souvlaki dinner, it should have been a decent size. As I was waiting for my order I saw them coming out of the kitchen with great big plates of food.....so I thought to myself, ok its a bit expensive but at least it will be a good portion. I was shocked when I opened it at home! Not to mention pissed !! I really should have taken a picture. I wont be back. This restaurant has to do better!! That was bad
Tommy is a great conversationaliat and gracious delivering service and laughs. Thank you Tommy Food
Beautiful, cozy place. Food was amazing and Tommy s service and hospitality was exceptional.
We had an amazing time! The service was great and our server George (Tommy) was THE BEST. The food was fantastic and very fresh.
Excellent service from Tommy
Great experience! In addition to atmosphere and delicious food , we loved Tommys attitude and hospitality ... will definitely go back .
Great Moussaka. Thanks Tommy!
Tommy

The best salad is Cristina Salad with grilled calamari and greek Uzo the best in town the chef is great
We had a great experience with Tommy as our waiter! The food was delicious and he was very hospitable! Will definitely be back
Tommy was outstanding. Great service and great food!
The most incredible spot for quality food and exceptional service. Tommy made our experience above and beyond!
Danforth, home of many Greek spots but if you re looking for authenticity THIS is the place to go to. From decor, big time vibes and of course quality yet proper portioned Greek food. It s unmatched, and there s a reason it s still going after 55 years. Big s/o to Tommy, guys a killer server and has stories for days. (See you in either Sarasota or Zihuatanejo my man, first Cerveza is on me )
Food was horrible !!! Fish was hard and chicken burnt !
Tommy was an incredible host!!! Amazing with kids!
Thank you so much Tom for an amazing evening of great food and entertainment !!!
I came here two weekends ago with my boyfriend for my birthday. service was awesome our server was very nice. food was great. such a nice spot! we will be back soon.
Tommy was amazing had such a wonderful time he was so funny and kind. Amazing food and ambience
Stopped by for brunch and had a wonderful time! Tommy is delightful and ensured we had a fantastic meal. I consider a mushroom omelet to be a benchmark dish, and this was the best Ive ever had. We cant wait to go back and have lamb and hear live music. Looking forward to coming back, Tommy!
Had a blast here! The food is good and the service was extremely awesome, thank you Tommy for a great time! Food
Welcomed at the door by Ashley with a smile! Impeccable service great food with sizeable portions. Souvlaki for the win!!! Thank you Ashley, we will definitely be returning.
Great food. Engaging owner.
Visited today for lunch with a friend we were delighted with our menu choices and the excellent service and attention to detail by Harold
We stopped in at Christinas for some shared appetizers and the whole experience from the greeting to the food was fantastic. Service was fast and Tommy was welcoming and simply great to chat with. The appetizers were fresh and unbelievably tasty! A positive experience from start to finish.
Great experience! The food was absolutely delicious, with each dish full of flavor and beautifully presented. Our server, Tommy, was the best friendly, attentive, and made excellent recommendations. Can t wait to come back! Highly recommend!
Great food, great company and amazing service. Thank you, Tommy, for waiting on our party and ensuring we were so well looked after!
Our dining experience was wonderful. Our food was delicious and our service from Tommy was outstanding. He made wonderful suggestions on our food choices and all were wonderful. Great service and food. We will definitely be back!
Shared an amazing lunch with dear friends at Christina s on the Danforth. Service and food is to be commended! Thank you Tommy for making our afternoon experience a total delight will come again
after 40 years visiting Christinas , never disappoint, Always good experience
I ordered the classic pork souvlaki for dinner with friends. The meal was great in terms of portions and taste. Their salad was tasty with the dressing and feta cheese. The only critique was the atmosphere. The music was too loud to have a conversation while eating. We asked the waiter 2 times to turn down the music before they lowered the volume.
Wheelchair accessibility: no Food
Friday, September 20th (2024). Dinner for four. Tommy our server made the experiance a very memorable one. Great food, fantastic service. Will be back again. Great evening. Jeff Stephens Collingwood, Ontario
The best server Tom. Excellent food and great service.
We had the Prix Fixe lunch and Christinas Salad on the patio today..all cooked and served to perfection. Fantastic baklava! And Tommy had us in stitches from the minute we got there. A Danforth mainstay..been coming to Christinas for decades.
Great food, awesome service, wonderful atmosphere; and Tommy helped to make our dinner for 6 an absolutely memorable experience. This will be our go to restaurant on the Danforth!
I had a wonderful experience here at Christina s. Our waiter tommy was an amazing and joyful person. He served us with a big smile and made sure we were always enjoying our food, experience and more. Aswell as the manager Christos, who was an amazing person. He really made the night for us an amazing night. He was always there to help and treated us really nice. Definitely recommend.
Had a lot of fun with Tommy
I brought my client here to have a pleasant meal. My client is 90 y/o and he loved the experience and ate all that he could. He and I vowed to come back again. The food is SUPER flavourful and you will require some PATIENCE as this quality kind of food comes in time. Tommy, you have been a great server to us and you made the experience so memorable! I will bring many more of my clients this way. Thank you Lora
Delicious food, I loved the Mouth watering Moussaka and delicious appetizers. Best of all our handsome and charming waiter made the dining experience truly warm and entertaining.
TOMMY WITH THE SPARKLING BLUE EYES! What an experience at Christina s! The food was absolutely incredible- from the butterfly lemon shrimp to the saganaki to the lamb and chicken souvlaki! All delicious and fresh! The side salad had the most sweet and juicy cherry tomatoes and Tommy s attention to detail with his customers is unmatched. He even informed us about the belly dancing on Saturday nights- we will definitely be back for more! Thank you!
It was a lovely experience. Tommy was our server and he went out of his way to serve us brunch! Truly an amazing experience
Great brunch at Christina s today. Our server Tommy was amazing and the food was fantastic.
Great food thanks Tommy !
Good food amazing portion size Good quality Lamb chops highly recommended Food : 5/5
Alway a great experience, been going here for years.
The weather Herald was very nice he helped us in choosing our food. This is our 2 time . I will definitely come back .
Elena was great server very accommodating and attentive and gave us a great experience!
The food was yummy, Elena and chef Tasos were amazing served us! It was wonderful dinner. We were three people and we all were happy. It was great hosting.
Our server Harold was absolutely amazing!! He was so attentive and helpful. Very kind energy and attitude. He helped us choose our dishes, stayed close to fill our drinks and bring napkins without asking for more. At the end he surprised us with a slice of delicious cake on the house which made us feel very special. Over all we left feeling so full, and happy with our service. Harold was such a pleasure, and the food was juicy and delicious!! 10/10 would recommend it especially if you come for a lunch/early dinner when it s not busy!!
We waited like 40 min for a seafood platter APPETIZER food was just not worth it.
My girlfriend and I went to have lunch. Our server Tommy was amazing. The butterfly shrimp was exquisite!
Great atmosphere and food at Christina s. Tommy was an exceptional waiter!
Tommy was an amazing host! As soon as we arrived he greeted us, his customer service was outstanding. Loved the seafood pasta I had, his dessert recommendation was phenomenal. We had a great time here and will be coming back soon!! Thanks again! :)
Great place to eat, very cozy, great environment. Thomas is an amazing server. We had an amazing thanksgiving lunch!
Amazing experience with my family from Germany. Amazing atmosphere, Tommy is fantastic! 10/10 would recommend to everybody! The Baklava was out of this world
Excellent service, Harold was very friendly and professional. Food was amazing.
Superb food, served by Tommy like he is a good friend welcoming us to his home
The Ossobuco and the Lamb shank were out of this world (and we are the fish eaters !). Tommy brought our dinning experience to another level. Choosing Christinas restaurant was a perfect decision to celebrate one of my Life event milestones. We will be back!
We had the best time at Christina s on the Danforth!!!! Tommy was an amazing server and made us feel so welcomed. He was so kind, enthusiastic and gave us great recommendations! The food was delicious and we enjoyed soaking in the sun on this sunny October Saturday. We cant wait to come back. Loved it!!!!
Ate here October 17, 24. The food was excellent and quite plentiful. The pork and chicken souvlakis were the best we ve ever had and we ve had lots. Service was very attentive and pleasant. We highly recommend Christina s and look forward to going back.
This place really deserves more recognition than it has, although maybe I shouldn t say that because it would be harder to get reservations! Thanks to the management made my birthday special, with their amazing LIVE GREEK MUSIC and the belly dance show that gave us so beautiful vibes. Definitely recommend this restaurant...
We came to early dinner with friends before we were going to a show. The food was excellent and fresh and good value which is a bonus as eating out is expensive lately. Tommy was our waiter and everything was taken care of perfectly, funny and made sure we got our food and to our show on time. We will be back and enjoy the night soon.
Great patio, wonderful atmosphere and variety of dishes on the menu. Tommy (Raoul) our waiter was entertaining and attentive. Thank you Tommy for making our visit enjoyable. Ps. The baklava was delicious
We started with the 3 dips, calamari and of course the must have saganaki, aka OPA Cheese appetizers. So delicious. The pork souvlaki was really tasty. The rice was ok (Im not a huge fan of rice to begin with) the potatoes arrived cold but tasty. Hense the 4/5. Mom loved her Calamari Entree and Portions were more than enough. Our Server, Tommy was awesome. He made everyone feel welcomed. Thank you Tommy for such wonderful service.
Visited for lunch with a friend, great food and Tommy was an outstanding host and server! Made great suggestions, a real show of the saganaki, and let us chatter away half of the afternoon. I highly recommend Dietary restrictions: Dairy free, onion free
Wonderful atmosphere is amazing service, and the food is to die for 12 out of 10 desert excellent wine selections
Had a delicious lunch with great recommendations from Tommy! Will come back to enjoy their live jazz next time :)
Tommy is amazing!!
Tommy, our server, was the best!! The food was delicious and fresh. Thx for the GTs
Amazing and Tom provided excellent service!
Food and the wait staff Tommy was amazing for my first time here.
Ok so I got a chicken souvlaki and I have mixed feelings. First the food- Tziki sauce was good. Unique flavor but still recognizable. Chicken was also good. Soft and tender, lightly seasoned. Potatoes very solid, very good flavor. Rice was absolutely terrible, dry and lacking flavor. Overall a unique take on a traditional dish but the rice, usually my favorite part, really let me down hard. The restaurant itself is also really well decorated and themed but unfortunately I made the mistake of takeout. The take out portions are the same as any other quick serve Greek place but of course you dont get any of the experiential part of dining which is why the $30 price tag really burns. If it wasnt for the rice I wouldnt have felt a bit ripped off but I really dont think its right to charge a full $30 for a portion that is no larger than other places and when the food is not *quite* worth the extra amount. $25 and I would have been fine with it- the food was certainly better than a quick serve place and on the whole it was very good, unfortunately just not *that* good.
Tommy is the best!! What a sweet angel Such a pleasure Food
Tommy was a great waiter
Tommy was an amazing waiter! Incredible food always a great spot to eat with loved ones!
Fantastic food, live music, and an excellent server named Tommy.
Outstanding food and service. Tommy is the best!!! Will be back
Fantastic family dinner in the Danforth!! Tommy was amazing
Tommy was dope as hell
The place is awesome as the food. Tommys services made it even better.
Tommy was a great server! Friendly and personable with lots of stories. Great food and drinks. Lamb shank was to die for. Food
Seriously the best Greek food I ve ever eaten! Tommy was an incredible server. He made the experience so welcoming and wonderful from all of his suggestions.
Satisfaction guaranteed. Tommy was a delight from the moment we arrived until our departure. The chicken souvlaki was perfectly seasoned and cooked with love(and probably heat, I m assuming an oven was utilized). If you are ever in need of a smiling face, wonderful service, and an excuse to loosen your belt a few notches, make this restaurant a stop on your journey. We can t wait to come back.
We just wanted a nice snack for lunch and MAN OH MAN did we get one. Settled with a few appetizers: TIROKAFTERI, DOLMADES, SPANAKOPITA, and CRISPY ZUCCHINI. All were super delicious and obviously fresh. To make our lunch even better, Tommy was amazing. Welcoming, friendly, and knowledgeable about the food and history of the restaurant. Couldn t have been happier. Thank you! Vegetarian options: Plenty of veggie and vegan options.
We randomly chose Christina s for lunch. It was beyond our expectations. We were greeted warmly and like family by Tommy. We ate so well, we exchanged experiences and shared the love for the Greek experience. Like coming home. We hope you are always well and see you again !!
Tommy was a great host, very friendly, accommodating and entertaining!!! Food and atmosphere was great!!
We were visiting Toronto from DC (no slouch as a food city) and their spanakopita and fried calamari was the best I ve ever had. Tommy s hospitality was fantastic as well. Highly recommend.
Tomy, is a amazing and very welcoming and he made a special sangria for me and my friend it was the best. You guys should ask for it when you come in. I really loved the food it was so delicious, I recommend everyone should come I had the best service ever!!!!.
Wonderful service and great food. Very kid friendly with a warm personality for everyone to enjoy. The best way is to enjoy small plates together with the table taverna style; bonus points if you let the waiters order! Kid-friendliness: Large open aisles. Loud and informal atmosphere. Accommodating wait staff
From Buffalo, New York Had a most enjoyable evening Saturday august 31. Food was excellent Service (our waiter Tommy) was a pleasure .cared about the food, cared about the customer (us), cared about the restaurant and bragged (in a good way) about the staff and management of the restaurant. Will return on my next visit to Greek town Andrew Gianiodis
Great experience, food and service
Service was good but slow due to only one waiter on this labour day holiday. Worth another visit Dietary restrictions: Lactose intolerant
Horrible experience at this restaurant today. We were a group of 6 and were seated for 3 hours in total for lunch time. Service was extremely slow and when I politely asked after 1.5 hours of waiting, when our food would arrive, I was told, when it s ready. My husband ordered a coke while his food was being brought out and the waiter brought the coke to him with the bill. The lunch menu was the dinner menu with insane prices. Almost $30 for a mediocre chicken souvlaki plate during lunch time. Menus were dirty and outdoor tables were severely damaged. Food is nothing special. You re better off going to Pantheon. Better food for the price you re paying.
Hands down my favourite Greek restaurant on the Danforth. The chicken souvlaki meal is delicious!! Exceptional customer service provided by Tommy. Love the atmosphere. Highly recommend!
Thank you for being amazing, Tommy! Great service and so much love
Excellent food with reasonable prices. Small patio at front is nice for people watching .
Tommy was our fantastic server and the ossobuco stew was amazing, right down to the marrow. The baklava was wonderful finisher. Highly recommended!
We had a great experience with family and friends, the live music and ambient was great The food was amazing and the service too Food
We were a party of 6. We got a nice table and the service was excellent! We love the saganaki so much that we ordered 3! The greek salad, souvlakies (pork and lamb), and the spanakopita were good. They had live music and a belly dancer. We ate really good, had fun and price was reasonable.
My favorite place on the Danforth
The waiter was truly great! A bright, older gentleman. Very warm and friendly welcome. Very positive, bright and service oriented. The food was better than I imagined. Lot;s of salad, and the lamb was exceptionally tender and mouth watering. The chicken souvlaki was great as well. We also ordered olives dripped in olive oil. Looking forward to going back.
If i could give it a 1 star I WOULD.
Christinas Restaurant on the Danforth is a cozy spot offering delicious Greek cuisine with a homestyle feel. The Lemon Shrimp and grilled eggplant were fantastic tonite. The service iwas beyond excellent, especially when Tommy, one of the staff members, brings his warm, welcoming charm to your table. The portions are generous, and the atmosphere is exciting making our multi-birthday celebration simply special. Great house-made dips and fresh pita bread to get you started. Been going there for 30 years, just gets better.
Absolutely lovely hospitality from our host, Tommy. Excellent food. Fantastic patio with sun and shade options, and heat lamps that I look forward to enjoying in the autumn. When you visit, ask about the history of the place. A gem on The Danforth.
Christina s is a Toronto institution- Boasting 55 years of incredible service on the Danforth, Christina s has the most incredible star studded history, but you are immediately made to feel like family. The food is incredible, authentic, and unmistakably made with love. Tommy, our server, made us feel immediately home and he very generously gave us a mini tour and regaled us with stories of the restaurants past. THIS hospitality is what gives a restaurant like Christina s the longevity and a lasting legacy in TO. People like Tommy are the heart and soul of an industry we too often take for granted. It goes without saying We will absolutely return. Many thanks, Heather & Martin
We ordered the grilled octopus, it had a good flavour but didnt have the right firm texture. Solomos(salmon) was a bit overcooked and mild in flavour and had to add salt. Lamb souvlaki was good but rice was bland. Service was good and attentive with a nice atmosphere.
Perfect service, Tommy was so professional, had my shy daughter smiling laughing and made everyone comfortable. The food was equally as good, fish cooked to perfection, wife s pasta was cooked to perfection. I recommend this place to anyone, any family. Great place. We will be coming back for a weekend visit when Tommy is in, one of the best servers I have had in my life
I had an amazing experience at Christina s on the Danforth! The food was absolutely delicious authentic Greek flavors with fresh ingredients. Tommy, the owner, was incredibly kind and made us feel right at home. He went out of his way to ensure we had a great time. Highly recommend this place for anyone craving quality Greek cuisine and excellent service!
Overall great experience! Tommy our server made us feel welcomed and was attentive. We enjoyed the food and looking forward to coming back again!!
This was a great night out. The service was superb, and lovely Greek food!
This is our favorite restaurant on the Danforth. Service is always amazing, everyone is so kind - and the food is AMAZING. Carroll was the kindest server.
Best Greek food in town best service with Tommy!!
Tommy is the best. I enjoyed the food and his hospitality
Tommy thanks for a fabulous dining experience and the best martini s in the city !
Tommy, he is the reason we come back! Besides the great tasty dishes, the quality and portion of each meal was awesome. But again this is Tommy, our host who changed our great day to wonderful with his welcoming words and treatment, offering the best dishes and some surprises for us. My 9 years son specially enjoyed a lot with fantastic Christina s! We come back soon!
Tommy gave us an amazing service
Food is salty but bland.
Tomas was amazing! Food was amazing! Opa! Food : 5/5
Tommy was our server -such a breath of fresh air. Food tasted amazing - had the eggs Benedict. I forgot to mention that I prefer to have my eggs medium and not runny. I asked if we could broil the top - instead he gracefully took the plate back and had the eggs re-done. Shared some fun laughs. Awesome patio
Tomas gives the best service. Awesome food and ambiance. Will be back for sure.
Never disappoints! Kid-friendliness: We bring the entire family :)! Pappa too! Food : 5/5 |
Christina s was such a delight! Elena took the best care of us and escalated our experience to the max. Our drinks were never empty and the food was fantastic. A lovely evening.
Battling with the fly wanting my bread was entertaining. I noticed in the reviews if the names were Greek the owners responded with their apologies for the bad food and bad service. Interesting.
Not too fancy. Saganaki and souvlaki main was delicious and sweet, tzatziki however had a VERY strong garlic taste. The space there is a bit tight and packed but very charming. Belly dancing and live music was a nice touch!
Thank you Tommy and team for making our parent s anniversary celebration so special at Christina s restaurant. From the initial reservation discussion for our group of 12, to the helpful suggestions about menu options, fun and touching surprises throughout the evening, and accommodating our special needs. The service was excellent and the food delicious. We had a fantastic evening and felt like family in their home.
We went to Christina s last weekend and had a great time. The food was delicious, and we had lots of laughs and great service thanks to our waiter Tommy. We will be back!
Tom really helped us out and gave us an excellent dinner. I am very happy in this place and the service is top-notch. I recommend this to everyone please stop by and have a bite to eat at, you will love it
Had the best day on the Danforth, stopped for a late lunch at Christina s and WOW! I thought the menu looked tasty but I underestimated. We were treated like family, and Tommy is fantastic! We will be back soon!
I recommend the shrimps and the full cooked fish (Sea Bass)
Tommy is the man. He made my dads 90th very warm and welcoming. Well be back!
Good food and portion and the live entertainment was a great compliment during dinner

The food and service here is spectacular! I tried it once and I was hooked. We come back here regularly now. The owners are amazing, very friendly and provide perfect customer service. I recommend this to all!
Best place on Danforth for Greek food, service and prices Best quality, best prices, best service !!!! Food

Really nice service by our host and waiter, very attentive and professional. Loved the jazz music that was playing in the background, we will definitely be returning back. Thanks so much for the lovely time and service.

Had a wonderful lunch, Tommy our server was great. Fantastic atmosphere and delish food. Will be back!
Raw kalamari, tough lamb still raw and huge day old potatoes, so undercooked impossible to eat. My worst dining experience ever. Had to run to the loo when I got home.
Thank you Harold for the amazing service today! Every time I come to Toronto I come here to eat. The food is delicious and so is the atmosphere. Thank you again!
We came to Christina s for a birthday celebration and it was excellent from start to finish. Our server, Erli, was warm, highly attentive, and added many personal touches to perfect our experience. The atmosphere was beautiful and the food was absolutely delicious. We will certainly be back.
The best experienced in a restaurant. Amazing service and food from the best waiter in town Tommy
The Brie Dip was amazing. Their apps were fire!
Food and service was amazing. Tommy our server was very personable. Enjoyed a great meal on the patio with friends!
Tommy!!!!! Great meal, great service, great vibes!
We were on the Danforth, walking by Christina s. We heard one of the staff talking lively and excitedly about the meal; everyone was laughing and having a grand time. Turns out, it was Tommy. What can I say about Tommy? I love Tommy. We came in and had a great lunch! He s wonderful. The food was terrific. It was fantastic. I can t wait to return, but only in Tommy s section.
great service, amazing food, our server Earile was very kind and welcoming!

The food was super and tasteful with great presentation! Great service! Many thanks to Tommy! Will definitely come back! Best of Luck!
Just a lazy Saturday afternoon, strolling along the Danforth and we stopped in for a drink and to watch people strolling by. We were greeted by the Mayor of the Danforth, Tommy. We had a few snacks, a couple of drinks and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. It was our 3rd visit to Christinas and wont be our last. Amazing spanakopita...probably the best Ive ever tasted, even better than my moms. And Tommy? Hes the best! Ask for him by name. He knows everyone and makes you feel like youre very special. Thank you. Vicki
Food was amazing and Tommy is the best waiter. Highly recommended

After a great boxing workout at Maximus Boxing Club, you have to stop by at Cristinas on the danforth to try their saganaki cheese and chicken souvlaki, and enjoy performance from a dancer

Tommy, our server, took care of us! What an amazing evening full of fun, great wine and delicious food! I will remember it for a long time. It is not too many times you go to a restaurant and have a memorable experience! Thanks so much
I had a great experience here. Tommy is incredible and gave us top notch service and attention throughout our evening.
Tommy was an absolute pleasure to be served by. Excellent fruit cocktails, food was delicious and conversation heart warming
I had an amazing time at Christinas yesterday evening. Tommy took care of our party of 5, made sure we had a nice table outside and then made sure everything was to our satisfaction from the appetizer, the main course and the dessert. We had a fabulous time and I cannot thank Tommy enough for his service.
Tommy was an incredible host and server. He delivered excellent service and gave us great laughs !!
I was in Cristina s today, we enjoy the food and excellent services Thanks to Tomas
Tommy was a gracious host and the food was amazing.
Lovely atmosphere! Great food! Lovely host - Tommy was accommodating and very friendly! Gave great recommendations from the menu and surprised my friend for her birthday with a delicious treat!
Very disappointed - it was too loud and the dinner felt rushed. My mains came out while we were eating hors deouvre - they took them back after being told. When the other mains came mine followed and it was cold - that is a joke - sorry but they need to do much better if they want me back...
Elena was an amazing server so attentive and the food was amazing atmosphere was nice outside
Tommy gave us an unforgettable experience peppered with charm, fantastic food and fun. We will be back

Good food and great service. Get Tommy Raoul, he is your man!
Why do I give Christinas one star? Because at the end of the meal, we were RIPPED OFF by the waitress! How unfortunate. Its also my fault for not scrutinizing the bill sufficiently. Caveat Emptor! I was attending a family group birthday party at Christinas and knew that the 3 people I was paying for had consumed approximately $100 worth of food. Add to that 1/2 litre of house red and a glass of house wine, I believe the bill should have been around $140 before tax. Thats expensive cheap wine, but thats how things are. The reason I dont know precisely is because the waitress showed me the bill and then took it away again as she keyed in the total to the credit machine. I remarked to my brother-in-law, to whom she did the same thing, its odd shes taking back our receipt. Only later did I understand the reason: because we were a large group, a tip was automatically applied, yet I didnt get time looking at the bill to see this. As a result, our $103 food order and 3 glasses of house wine ended up costing me $208.54. I enjoyed the food, but the petty larceny at the end of the evening spoiled it for me. My question is, was the extra $30 you got from me worth the cost of nobody I know ever setting foot in your restaurant again?
If you are in between a few different Greek restaurants in the Danforth, come to Christinas and meet Tommy. He does it all! He was our server, our bartender. He surprised us with some delicious bread with greek olive oil and told us let me bring you some wine, can i surprise you? Not only was the wine delicious, it was crisp and cold, just the way we like it. This guy is full of energy and personality and even when he had the whole restaurant to himself on a Friday lunch, he gave us the full 100% service that everyone deserves. You can just tell that every customer around you loves him and he really makes the atmosphere amazing. The food on top of it all was the cherry on top. We had three dips and the Greek fries and we are leaving extremely happy customers. We even made a reservation to come back on Sunday. You are in for a great experience when you come here!
Tommy the host was so friendly and accommodating. The food was excellent. Tzaziki is so yummy. This is our new Greek place!! Kid-friendliness: Hes very nice to kids!
I am disappointed with the quality of food. The waiter was great, he was always available and professional. They ran out of pita bread to serve before our meal, so our waiter cut up some bread slices and added butter to make up for the pita bread basket. It was nice of him but not the same. We ordered a Greek salad as an appetizer, and two main dishes. The salad was awful, and obviously not fresh. The main dishes were ok, cant complain. Nothing to brag about. We had the fish, and Lamb souvlaki dinner. Both dishes were ok. This is not the Christinas I remember. This used to be my favorite restaurant for Greek food, I used to always recommend Christinas to all my family and friends, now it is a completely different place, different experience.i suppose the old saying applies here, Back in the day
Sat on the patio last night and had a great experience! Service was attentive, tables were clean, and most importantly the food was AMAZING. Complimentary baguette and garlic butter was a really nice touch.
amazing service from tommy!! made my brunch experience nice. He catered to me served me a nice seafood pasta and it was everything. It was just a nice energy from start to finish. i ll be back fisshherrrr ps it s not common to mention but the restroom space was super clean.
Tony is the best
Went in today for lunch with the family. Food and service were all excellent. Tommy did a great job taking care of us.
There is an amazing place! Foods are delicious, serving is fast, atmosphere is also cool. You feel like eating at Syros!
