    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.

    We are always stuffed and happy when we eat at Lou Malnati's and this visit was no different. We sat outside, which is a nice little courtyard area, so we could enjoy the beautiful weather. Our server was attentive, taking our order and bringing drinks/to go boxes, when we needed them. The pizza was amazing, as always. The Lou Classic is such a great combo of the fresh tomato, lean sausage, cheese and buttery crust, and we enjoy it so much, that it's really hard for us to order anything else. We can't wait for our next visit!
