Christo's is one of the best Northern Italian Restaurants in Phoenix. We have been enjoying dining here for decades and it is still one of our favorites. Each meal comes with soup and salad included. The wine list is simple but inclusive. Santino, our waiter is wonderful. He is as much a reason to dine as the food. Everything is paced for enjoyment. The house made pasta is always a favorite and Alfredo Sauce is without comparison.

My husband had spaghetti and meatballs, which was actually the special for the evening. He said they were very good. I am not a pasta eater, but I was able to get scallops and sautéed vegetables with their lemon caper sauce and it was outstanding! We both had plenty to have for lunch the next day. Our server was great, the food came out quickly and the price was perfect! We really enjoy this restaurant, have been here several times and will be back.

The food was very good and service was great but for $300 for the ribeye not sure I would spend that much again as there are better tomahawks for a cheaper price elsewhere. Would like to go back and try the chicken and pork for way less
