The service was weak. They didn’t ask how the food was. They were way too slow to take drink orders. The app was ok… not great. I can make better food at home. The food was ok at best. Eating out should be special. This was not a meal that I would suggest to others. I did not feel welcome at Christo’s I won’t return. Wasted 142.00 dollars… the servers lack luster. They are the face of the business. It’s a sad face. Spend your money elsewhere.
Friendly service, awesome pizza, crust was amazing with great toppings!! IPA was only five bucks, might as well knock back a couple of them!!
My family has been going to Christo’s for many years. After our kids left for college, my husband and I used to go every Friday night for dinner. I didn’t realize how much I loved Christo’s until we moved away and visited recently for lunch. Our go-to order was the spinach salad (I would give ANYTHING to get the dressing recipe!!!), large pizza with half pepperoni and half Christo’s combo, and bottle of Cana’s feast wine. The pizza crust is crispy on the bottom yet thick with great chew. Toppings are high quality and sauce has just the right kick. We take home the left-overs for a great meal the next day. Staff are always so hip and fun. The atmosphere and aroma are San Francisco Italian. Other dinner specials look and smell great but we can never break away from the pizza! Love, love, love! It is a treasure for Salem!
Enjoyed a wonderful salad and pizza at Christi’s - the pizza was a New York style with delicious ingredients. The toppings were fresh and abundant. The large was LARGE and four of us were unable to eat entire pizza...but hey, that means breakfast is ready - LOL. We enjoyed the dining area, very private and quiet to make it easy to talk with one another. Service was excellent and food was prepared in a timely manner. Parking is available adjacent to the restaurant and felt comfortable walking around the area. Looking for a GREAT PIZZA or other Italian foods then I would certainly recommend Christi’s. Fun place to eat with GREAT food. Thank You Christos! Cheers... BlueWaterSailor
From the moment you enter . . . you will feel transported into an environment which fondly reminds me of the Big Apple's "Little Italy". The lighting is dim and the decor is eclectic. The staff welcomes you like family as they seat you and hand out menus that resemble biblical scriptures. Contained there-in are pages of what is described as: classic Italian dishes, inspired by the way our family has made them for generations. A wide variety of pastas, chicken, beef, assorted seafood dishes and pizza with dough made fresh daily, based on a recipe perfected by the owner, combined with the finest local and imported toppings and claimed to be the best pizza in Salem. The bar serves a wide selection of cocktails, beers and wines. My dining partners selected pasta dishes some with chicken, others with seafood accompanied with small salads that were almost meals by themselves. The food was perfectly done and the service was prompt and impeccable. Christos is also a jazz club and the ambiance can be felt throughout -- it's funky! What a great place to casually dine.
