For a vegetarian, the restaurant wasn't that good. Mainly because the well-known Greek dishes such as hummus, falafel, and rice/vegetables were very meh. The hummus was full of turmeric that completely ruined the taste. The falafel was undercooked on the inside, and the rice was just plain rice with a bit of seasoning and lacking in flavor. Honestly a disappointment, even for non-vegetarians, these well-known dishes may be a disappoint.

Food was decent but what really made the experience was the comfy atmosphere and our server! I believe his name was Ben and he put up with all our shenanigans! We got various things (pizza, pasta, sandwich) and everything was good but not as great as Christos used to be.

I've eaten at Kouzins Christos a few times with my daughter and both of us give KC very enthusiastic 5 stars! The food is delicious, the service is tip top. I've had a calzone and a grinder and both were transcendent and plentiful. My daughter had a pasta dish and garlic bread that made her want to go back the next night. We'll be back soon!

The hostess looked and acted miserable when we walked in. A bit later, I was told, when I tried to order a third beer, that the restaurant policy was no more than two beers per hour can be served. Since we had been there almost an hour I waited five minutes and ordered another one. When the waitress brought it, I commented that I had never experienced a policy like that. Even went as far to let her know that I wasn't driving. She said that doesn't matter - it is policy!! Hahaha will never go back despite the food being pretty good.

We had the baked rigatoni with chicken and split some calamari. Both dishes were good, and the pizza was very good. Unfortunately, this is where the positive sentiment ends, and the recommendation for the show "Restaurant Impossible" begins. The service was incredibly slow. We saw a couple leave before getting their food and for another table patiently waiting for a long time, we wanted to tell jokingly, "Don't worry the service gets better at the two hour wait mark." Unless things improve with the service, I wouldn't totally avoid the restaurant but rather would just order takeout.

Christo's is THE BEST! The food is fresh, the sandwiches are beyond Fabulous! The small meat lovers pizza is absolutely delicious! To be able to enjoy great tasting food in a true laid-back, easy atmosphere is a joy. David H.

I don't write reviews unless something really makes me go WOW! And wow! I went to Greece last summer and the food seems better here Lol. The Greek salad was the most fresh salad with bright red yummy tomatoes. We had the calamari which was super excellent but be sure and try the pita and hummus appetizer. I love love this place, so happy to find it right down the street in their new location. These guys do it right!

I've eaten here a few times. I won't return. The staff can be curt, and slightly rude. None of them smile, and engage with you as if they are happy to work there... One of the cooks was on break, and dropping F bombs and cursing loudly out in the dining area during lunch. Very unprofessional, and my guest was insulted. The food is somewhat tasty, but that's only if it's available. You never really know?!? They run out of items consistently. Wait times for meals are usually long. Atmosphere is seriously lacking. This one star review is actually very generous. There's better Greek food elsewhere, served with a gracious attitude. Avoid this place.

OMG! OMG! OMG! I love this place soooo much. I've been eating here since 2000 location off Delk Rd. Then I move to other side of town and when in the area I stopped by and they were gone. Then years later I saw them by total accident a little further south on Powers Ferry. Then Covid hit and I saw they were Closed Permanently. NOOOOOO...not again!!! But then just today there they were in a new location off Johnsons Ferry near Lower Roswell Rd. I had to stop and see if it was the same family and it was!!!!Family owned this place has amazing food. My favorite is the pastrami grinder but I can personally tell you they are all Great! Everyone I have turned onto this place has become a fan. Several years back I turned on a friend and he loved them so much we went there every Sunday for years and catered them for his Super Bowl parties!So glad they are still in business!!!
Delicious and authentic cuisine—highly recommend. Excellent, friendly service.

Had the falafel plate and Greek potatoes.Hubby had the spaghetti marinara with mushrooms. Portion size for the spaghetti was less than the usual. Taste was just okay. My dish was a thick flatbread covered by a heap of yellow hummus, 2 large too crunchy falafel, marinated beets and slices, a hard boiled egg and a large cornichon. Potatoes were fairly tasteless as well as undercooked. Not impressed. High prices. Slow service. Not likely to return.

Waited 30 minutes for an appetizer that was horrible and takes 5 minutes to prepare. Food came, gyro was thr size of a taco for $12.00. We left and went elsewhere. This place is a shadow of it's former self!!!

There was a small wait, but I actually appreciated that they didn't just utilize ALL the tables when they only had 2 waitresses on a Friday night at 7pm. Then everyone sits at their tables with the expectation of being waited on immediately.Our wait was about 15 minutes and we ordered and received our appetizers right away. The ravioli and calamari were both great. Once it was time to order our food the waitress advised us it was about 25 minutes for meals as they were backed up from lack of staff.I really appreciated the notice and it definitely didn't take that long! We got the Gyro plate and the roasted lamb grinder. Everything was AWESOME!Despite being short staffed the staff was impeccable! They all had great attitudes and kept smiles on their faces as well as those in the restaurant!Please try this place! The portions are great and you won't regret it!
