We are dedicated to excellence in every sense of the word: from our food and our service to the quality of your dining experience, we promise that every detail has been considered.
Named as one of the best places to eat in Phoenix by the esteemed New York Times, as well as one of USA Today’s “Best Trattorias in the United States,” our Italian restaurant is a beloved Valley institution. Conveniently located in Uptown Phoenix, Christo’s is just minutes from many of the city’s most iconic highlights.
Old-Town European Dining in a Superb Setting
Every dish on our diverse menu has been crafted with love and quality, made with only the finest ingredients.
Because we are committed to exclusively using fresh and seasonal fish, meats, and produce, Christo’s daily chef specials are always changing. Freshly-caught fish is flown in daily, ensuring that guests enjoy the ultimate in quality and flavor.
Among the multitude of dishes that have made Christo’s Ristorante famous are our seafood entrees, such as our Chilean sea bass, cioppino, and halibut Athenian. Our signature osso buco is another guest favorite, as is our plentiful selection of classic Italian pasta. With so many dishes to try, each one made to order to accommodate your tastes and preferences; there truly is something at Christo’s for everyone to enjoy.
Our restaurant provides an intimate dining space that’s delightfully cozy, equally suitable for romantic dates, business meetings, and celebrations with family and friends. With a timeless aesthetic that completely captures the indescribable ambiance of Europe, Christo’s Ristorante is a place that has all the comfort of home and the luxury of a fine dining establishment.
A Dedication to Family, Community, and Compassion
At Christo’s Ristorante, we consider everyone to be a part of our extended family.
From our staff to our guests and beyond, we firmly believe that every individual should experience the joys of both food and family.
Since our beginning, we have felt called to serve the community, not just in our restaurant but also through charitable efforts. The Christo’s team, alongside the Alexi’s Grill family, maintain an active role in various fundraising efforts and also leads a twice-yearly campaign to help feed hundreds of families in need through St. Vincent De Paul. We are thankful to have been blessed with the opportunity to pay our good fortune forward and serve the less fortunate members of the community.
