    We ordered the seafood special and didn’t know it was $55. They should tell the prices when they tell you the specials. It wasn’t worth anywhere near $55. We were very surprised at the price. Staff was cleaning up table while we were trying to finish coffee. Could have waited until we left. Bruschetta appetizer was really good. Arancini was cooked too long. Other main dishes were really good.

    The food and service were perfect. It was just the place I was looking for, and the wood-fired pizza crust was done to perfection. I highly recommend it. The staff was delightful and very attentive. I will definitely be going back soon.

    Like if you had a traditional Italian family owned restaurant with fresh pasta, full bar and a cool vibe. Think of an Italian “Cheers” where everyone knows your name AND if you never had wood fired pizza you need to experience that.

    My husband and I enjoyed our 30th-anniversary dinner at Cristo's Wood-Fired Pizza and Pasta. Everything was wonderful. We received a warm personal welcome from the owners and servers. We ordered an appetizer, wine, and entrees and shared a slice of decadent chocolate cake. If you have not had an opportunity to visit Cristo's, be sure to try it out!

    The food was SO good! And all of our Celiacs ate safely and deliciously. Fantastic portions, great flavor, and the service was excellent too. Don’t know what to expect, as it’s in a building next to a used car lot, but it was so cute inside and we loved our dinner. Would definitely go back.
