After growing up in a very Italian household, Christini's made me both comforted and homesick. The food was fantastic, the atmosphere was spot on for anyone used to higher end Italian restaurants, and the staff were friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. Not only would I recommend Christini's, I would put it as a "must visit" for those local patrons as well as those visiting from out of town.

We reserved Christini's to celebrate our 51st anniversary. The restaurant and staff went above and beyond to make our visit special in every way! Each staff person knew we were there for a special occasion and shared their good wishes with us. The service is impeccable and the food is even better. This is a true fine dining experience. We enjoyed wine and sangria, the special appetizer of the evening and two wonderfully prepared veal dishes. The portions are very large and we will enjoy the leftovers for another meal. My husband uses a walker and they were prepared to help him store and retrieve the walker, as necessary. They were kind enough to gift us two wonderful desserts to share. One of these came home with us. The ladies end the evening with a beautiful rose. We will certainly return to this lovely spot and highly recommend it!

the restaurant has a valet which is nice as it is in a very busy shopping center. The service upon entering was very good. We were served delicious Italian bread with an eggplant sauce which was very tasty and I do not particularly like eggplant. The wine selection by the glass is minuscule. There are a few pages of wine by the bottle and are quite expensive. We began with an appetizer of meatballs, fried calamari and penne pasta with a nut sauce. The appetizer was excellent and if I would have known, that would have been enough for dinner. We then ordered the sea bass which was not very good and hardly seasoned even though it was in a lobster sauce. The fish was accompanied by shrimp risotto which was extremely mushy and tasteless. We did not bother ordering a dessert as we had been disappointed by the meal and didn't believe the dessert could be any better. The restaurant is extremely overpriced, the chef needs lessons about seasoning food. This dining experience was an expensive and awful experience. I do not recommend it
