When you first walk in, the place feels cozy and inviting as if you were inside a cabin with all the wood accents including picnic tables and high tops. There's also an area for kids with video games. If you need food, you can place an order from the business next door at the bar. They have pizzas, cheesesteaks and hot dogs. There was a workshop happening that evening about bat conservation, it was interesting. I later learned that they host different community workshops once a month. They also host different events, like a running club, yoga and trivia nights.

I wanted everything on the menu. This was more than southern comfort. I was very impressed and each dish had the perfect balance of flavor. Portions were perfect and it's always nice to be satisfied without feeling sick after like so many "comfort" foods can. I got the Korean seabass special and it was slightly pan fried with a crisp I the edges and meaty center. The pickled peaches were excellent! The ice cream is house made and very unique. We had the popcorn, buttermilk and brown sugar. I liked the brown sugar the best. :) The drink selections were great. I really enjoyed this orange beer that had over 5 % abv and is a good contender to OBP! We will be back next month because I've got to try the ragu and gnocchi!

Their story and concept is great. You're truly supporting a local business that has been around for a long time and has amazing reviews. The owner is the chef and they have a staff of maybe 5 people total. It's personal and professional. It's fresh food made daily and you can see them working in the kitchen. If you go and eat one thing, it's the ribs appetizer. The salmon was amazing too. But the sauce and those ribs will have me going back!

There are a couple of stands where you get your food right away, but most will have to prepare your food and let you know when it's ready. The vibes are great here and almost cozy.

Sandwiches were tasty and reasonably priced. I had meatball, my wife had a Cuban. I was a little disappointed that the Cuban was not pressed. The bar was pretty empty so service was okay.

Picked up dinner from Christo's on a Saturday night, and everything we ordered was a hit…read more We went with a large pepperoni and mushroom pizza, pepperoni bread, and lemon pepper wings. The pizza was definitely the star of the meal. It had a crispy bottom with a light, fluffy crust, giving it a really nice texture from the first bite to the last. One thing that stood out was the sprinkle of Parmesan cheese over the top. It's a simple touch, but it added another layer of flavor that made the pizza stand out from your typical pepperoni pizza. This was my first time trying the pepperoni bread, and it didn't disappoint. It had plenty of filling, great flavor, and paired really well with the pizza. It's something I'd order again without hesitation. The lemon pepper wings were another favorite. They had a crispy outside, were seasoned well, and the lemon pepper flavor came through without being overpowering. Overall, we were really happy with everything we ordered. The pizza, pepperoni bread, and wings all lived up to expectations. Next time, I'll probably branch out and try a few more items from the menu.

It had been years since I'd visited Christo's and it did not disappoint…read more Our party of 4 arrived just before 6pm on a rainy Friday night and were seated right away. Our food came pretty fast and we both enjoyed large pizzas. My husband and I split a large pizza with chicken, spinach, and garlic. Wow it was amazing! Beware the pizza is pretty thin though so I wouldn't recommend splitting with more than 2 people. We were seated right next to the dessert case, which made it hard for us to say no. The brownie/strawberry cheesecake was amazing. The inside gives diner vibes and the outside offers nice seating when the weather is well. The menu is very large and we will be back to eat pizza and try something new.

I sat at the bar and watched the bartender chat with every single person at the bar in a most genuine and friendly way.

As I was attending the Film Festival across the street at the Ritz, I wasn't able to drink alcohol, but the drinks looked really good! Ambiance-wise: this is a very fun and open-spaced bar. I sat at the bar but there were picnic tables behind me (indoor). It was lovely and very well lit. When I walked outside, I felt very safe. This is a really great spot to hang out with friends there in Sanford!
