We had a great time at Christakis yesterday: the service was so incredibly kind and attentive, the food was authentic and delicious - and the place feels like a little Greek tavern. We will be back. Thank you!Vegetarian options: Vegetarian dips, Feta cheese in filo, Falafel and veggie sides and salads

Gyro pita was very good quality. Rice pilaf was just plain yellow rice with nothing in it which was disappointing. Cute place, parking is terrible. Staff was very pleasant and attentive.

Great everything. Baklava is best I ever had (not too sweet). Our go-to Greek spot in OC.

Food and service is amazing. Only confusion is website says they cater but when we called they said they did not. Wish they did , would love to get their amazing food for an event later this year.

one of our favorite family neighborhood places. all of our neighbors are in there and it's a very happy upbeat vibe in there. the food is made with care and we have liked everything we have tried. they buy a very good grade of lamb - do try the paidakia. wine list is good too. the patio is heated and on Friday nights there is decent live music. definitely recommended.

Had a very nice, non rushed, relaxing evening meal. The meal was excellent, lamb chops for one and stuffed chicken breast for the other. Salad pre and dessert post finished the evening alone with our wine. Highly recommend but make reservations or you might be disappointed— they are busy!!!

First time here. Great time spending it with family and friends. Nice atmosphere, (a little loud inside) food came out quick but could've been a little hotter. (Seemed prepared)
We love going to Christakis on the weekends. They often have a guitarist playing relaxing music that our kids are mesmerized by. Plus, they're able to draw on the paper table settings which is also very handy if you have young kids. The food and service are always excellent and friendly. Highly

Food and service was phenomenal! Last time I was here was 2002 , decided to return and it was amazing. I rarely give places 5 stars on food and service but they deserve 10. It was a great experience.

It's always a pleasure to dine here. Whether with my partner or friends from as far away as Rochester, NY, the food is alway delicious and presented in a very appetizing way. One of my favorite dishes is the rack of lamb. It's not to be missed!
