Outstanding experience! I hosted a party of 14, and everything exceeded expectations. The food was delicious—highly recommend the steak—the service was exceptional, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. If you're planning a large gathering, ask for Ronnie or Rose. They’ll take great care of you and help make your event truly memorable!

we had the most amazing time at Christine’s. this is the epitome of what New Jersey italian food should be. Ronnie was the absolute best - we all hugged him goodbye at the end of our meal. he treated us like family and gave us recommendations of dishes to try. i’d come back just to chat with him, but the food was unbelievable, too. Nina was our server and was also so cool and super helpful. the list of specials was insane in the best way.

italian eggrolls - nothing to dislike here. the cheese was super creamy, which we loved.

special salad - phenomenal. probably the best salad i’ve had in my entire life. everything about it worked and was perfect.

bread with roasted peppers - best roasted peppers i’ve ever had.

rigatoni sharon - super creamy, fresh, homemade pasta - ugh, so freakin good.

veal chop special - i could have cried it was so good. so tender, so flavorful, perfect mushrooms & onions and perfectly cooked spinach. PERFECT.

my husband also loved his chicken margarita and let me have a bite - delicious.

can’t wait to go back - can’t get anything like this where we live in boston.

The food isn’t bad it’s just not worth what they charge. If the pasta dishes are $30+ they should be made in house. Service is friendly but slow.

Wasted valentines day by taking my wife here the had salad as appetizer with eas good the Italian egg rolls were terrible and my dish was ok beside the potatoes chips on top of a chicken breast..my wife got some pasta dish with vodka sauce which was terrible but she didn't want to be rude and say it was bad so she wrapped it which was tossed later..the only good thing is the servers come and check on you to see if everything was good..had to ask waiter 3 times to bring ice to table and we were first ones in there so no excuse to say he was busy

First time here, did not disappoint. No complaints whatsover. Ronnie, the owner is beyond welcoming and genuinely makes you feel like you are one of his oldest friends. Staff was very attentive but not overwhelming, pleasant, well versed in the menu and more than competent. These were college aged men who I beleive may be family members as well, and they appeared appreciative that we were there. The food.......top notch italian, delicious, cozy, felt like home. (And we are Italian so we can weigh in on that). Plenty for another meal with the amount of food that is presented, we took "to go's" of everything including appetizers. This little piece of home is surely our new go to. Thanks, Ronnie, for your hospitality. Toni and Joe Hazlet, NJ

My wife and I brought our children with us to celebrate our 36th anniversary. As usual the food was out of this world terrific. The service was on point and the owner Ron was gracious and as usual entertaining. We absolutely love Christine's and it is our all time favorite restaurant. Thank you to the staff, our compliments to the chef and we love you Ron!

My wife and I stopped in for our wedding anniversary and had an amazing experience. The owner stopped at our table several times to check on how everything was, the server was very knowledgeable and offered fantastic recommendations and the food did not disappoint. The wagyu appetizer stole the show but all of the food was phenomenal. Honestly, we've never had a bad dish or experience at Christine's.
