    This is one of our favorite restaurants in Tustin. I’ve never had a bad experience. The service was terrific and the food was excellent. A great value for a nice family run restaurant. Highly recommend.

    Wonderful food, the combo plate is to die for and has been the best food I have had in a year at least. Authentic flavors, genuine staff, and excellent wine selection

    Lunch for four on a Thursday. Great specials, plus the rest of the food was tasty as well. While there are plenty of greek options, there are others too! Pricing is very good and serving sizes are better than most restaurants these days. Been here multiple times and will return!

    We love Christakis, the food is amazing. I would recommend the Athenian chicken and the dolmades. We always request to sit outside, it’s more romantic than inside which can often be crowded and loud. it’s a small restaurant so reservations are a must.

    First time dining there with friends that dine here often. Loved everything about it but especially that is owned by a family instead of a large corporation. Hands on service and the food was excellent. I'm so glad I made a reservation or we wouldn't have gotten in. It was packed. So glad they are thriving and we will be back!
