Diners rave about "perfectly cooked steaks" and appetizers like Ahi Tuna and calamari. The "atmosphere is vibrant," ideal for special occasions. Though some mention noise, the "consistent quality" and "friendly staff" make it a top Orlando choice.

The steak and seafood selections are both impeccable. We typically order the lobster tail as an appetizer to share and rotate between the filet, ribeye, or ahi tuna for entrees. The entrees are worth every penny. I think some of the sides may be slightly overvalued, but they are family-style and provide you with plenty to share or take home. It is a classic old steakhouse vibe with darker lighting, deep red cushioned booths, and an excellent piano bar area. If you are seated near the piano it can get pretty loud, but the other areas of the restaurant have a more moderate noise volume. Finally, one cannot say enough about the service received at Christner's. We are always taken care of by personable staff and the waiters always make thoughtful menu/drink suggestions. If you are looking for excellent quality steak or fish, a classic steakhouse vibe, and a lively, celebratory atmosphere, Christner's is your place! I think there is something to be said of a steakhouse that is mostly full every night of the week!

It’s SUPER pricey so be prepared. The ambiance is dated and not well kept but who cares when the service and food is so outstanding.

The manager was wonderful and moved us to a table that was very comfortable. Service at our new table was excellent. The food was average at best.
