    I have been going to the Wrigley Mansion for many years to celebrate life events with brunch. The history of the place is a part of the history of Phoenix. I have watched renovations and improvements over many years and the Mansion just gets better and better. Our waiter, John, explained the menu and answered all our questions. He was polite and fun. He took care of our every need as did the rest of staff. The food was delicious!

    Having worked in the restaurant business, you have a higher expectation of what an experience should be. Food becomes bland, poor service is the norm, and you pick everything apart. My wife and I have elaborate discussions during most dinners about how everything has no care or love anymore, and eating is just passing the time. Nothing stands out. I will say this dinner was one of the best overall meals I can remember. The food had flavor for days, and the service was exceptional. Thank you for having a Chilean wine on the menu! That banana ice cream was unreal and was a great finish to the dinner. Thank you for letting me be a part of your culinary journey.

    Christopher's is one of the top restaurants in town! The service is excellent, attentive, knowledgeable, the Chef is one of the best, the presentation is unique and beautiful, the food never disappoints! The atmosphere is gorgeous the restaurant is floor to ceiling windows overlooking the city and just exquisite design from the dinning room, kitchen, to even the bathrooms! Christopher always comes to see you at the table and makes you feel special asking how you like everything and thanking you for coming. He is a true gentleman and just adore him. I have been here now to celebrate Christmas with my girlfriend, a birthday with my boyfriend, and to try it when they first opened there...he never disappoints This is a must if you love food, experiences and ambiance!! Top notch
