    We went for our 4th year anniversary and they were so welcoming from the beginning. Acknowledged what we were celebrating and made us feel welcome. Out waiter Johnny was knowledgeable and attentive. The food was fantastic, my steak literally melted in my mouth. I would go again, 10/10

    One of the best dining experiences we’ve ever had. It began with the complimentary valet parking service! We were greeted immediately and welcomed by every employee that we passed on the way to our table. Our server, Johnny, was exceptional. Very informative and great with his menu suggestions. All servers were so helpful and always nearby, should we have needed anything. Our food choices included a spinach salad that was absolutely fantastic- and I am very much a finicky salad person. The shrimp cocktail included the largest shrimp I’ve ever seen. Main courses were seafood FraDiavolo (shrimp, lobster, clams, oysters, fish) and veal parmigiana. Both were delicious, with generous portions. The ambiance of the restaurant was fabulous. An accordion player roamed throughout the tables, asking each table for a request. Needless to say, we will most certainly return to Christini’s the next time we are in Orlando. Don’t miss this one of a kind experience!

    If you are visiting Orlando, this Italian restaurant is a MUST! The staff goes out of their way to accommodate their guests. Running late for my reservation, Sean, the maitre d held my table, and sat us at one of his favorite tables, our wait staff accommodated our special dinner request, and the quality and presentation demonstrated why they are a 5 star restaurant. Compliments to the chef for a fabulous diner and the staff for an exceptional experience. Well done everyone!
