easily our long time favorite in both Minneapolis, and Minnetonka as we have been customers for close to 30 years. ALWAYS predictably great food, and the service is superb. Highly recommend either location.

We went to Christos with a great friend who was close to my mom and dad and whom we see about once a month. We always enjoy Christos take out or dining in with her. Our waiter was very personable and very attentive to us, and the food was wonderful as always. Also, Gus was there and came to say hi to us, which we always look forward to. We will continue to come back, best food and friendly people!

How nice it is to be able to dine in a restaurant, again. Because this restaurant is large, it is possible to be spread out. My friend and I sat in the window bay at the front and it was bright an sunny when we arrived. Our waiter was laid back but conscientious. Just the right amount of attentiveness. We ordered an appetizer- the Hot Sampler that had Loukaniko, Koupepia and Gyros with Tzatziki. It was so good!. It could be a meal in and of itself (and if you were doing Keto, just leave the rice out.) I ordered the Spanakopita with Avgolemono and my friend had the Pastitsio with salad. It was more than enough tasty food that we both took boxes home. Because it was National Desert Day, we indulged. Baklava fro her and Chocolate Mousse for myself. We enjoyed a nice leisurely meal that evening and felt cared for well.

We took advantage of a beautiful afternoon and enjoyed a late lunch/early dinner outside. They've expanded their outdoor seating into what used to be an herb garden. Now there are little tables shaded by surrounding trees. While we love their patio, this new area is quieter because it's farther from Hwy 7 and a little less breezy. Our server was outstanding; friendly, attentive, helpful. He let us know there was 1/2 off bottles of wine which we took advantage of. I tried the Moussaka for the first time and it won't be the last. We've enjoyed Christos for many years but this visit was one of our best experiences.
