    Why did Open Table allow me to book a reservation at a restaurant that is closed.. I came from an hour away to enjoy an evening on the Danforth. Looked through dozens of reservations and reviews, and chose Christina's because it was available at the time I wanted. We get to the restaurant and it's closed. I am not from Toronto, I looked up their menu, the website was still active. Why would a restaurant be on a booking site when you shouldn't be able to book anything. VERY disappointed in this.

    The restaurant accepted my reservation but it closed. Showed up in -20 degrees and had to scramble to find another place. Didn’t appreciate it.

    Had booked Cristina‘s through OpenTable a few days prior to our reservation date. Less than an hour to our reservation date and time I got a text from Christina‘s telling me that the place is not open and that my reservation will be canceled. I understand things do happen Unfortunately in an hour prior to reservation with a large group was a disaster scrambling to try find a new restaurant with a table to accommodate. Had the reservation been cancelled hours ahead of time I would understand, but not less than an hour.

    Christina’s once the Jewel of the danforth Is now a dated very average place , that has lost there lustre. Food was ok but nothing special And place has not been renovated from the 80’s. Many new places have opened up on the danforth that have surpassed Christina’s Just walking back to the subway seeing many filled to capacity while Christina’s was sparse

    Everything was great! The only thing a bit off was the music — it was quite loud, which made conversation difficult. It would have been nicer if the music had a slightly more upbeat vibe.

FAQs

Yes, but pick your timing. Christina’s is a lively, authentic Greek spot with live music and belly dancing on weekend evenings, creating a fun, festive vibe that’s great for a celebratory date. If you want a quieter, more intimate meal, choose a weekday or an earlier seating; some guests note weekend music can be very loud. Overall the food and warm service make it a charming choice for couples who enjoy lively atmosphere and Greek cuisine.

Portions can vary, many guests find dishes generous and good for sharing (trio dips, meats, fries), while a few mentioned smaller meat cuts or modest portions on some entrees. Expect typical casual Greek servings: shareable appetizers and mains that can be split, with a mix of hearty and modest portions depending on the dish. If you’re hungry, consider ordering a few starters to share or checking portion details with your server.

Family-friendly: yes, many guests bring families, celebrate birthdays, and dine with teens. Seating is casual but can feel close together, so larger groups or families may find it cozy. Accessibility details aren’t mentioned in guest feedback or owner info, so call ahead to check wheelchair access or specific seating needs. For family visits, consider earlier reservations to avoid the louder weekend entertainment.

Best time depends on what you want: come Friday or Saturday nights for live Greek music and belly dancing if you want lively entertainment; choose weekdays or earlier dinner times for a quieter meal and easier conversation. Guests often praise the atmosphere and service on nights with live music, but several note the music can be loud, book earlier or midweek for a calmer experience.

Warm, lively, and traditionally Greek, Christina’s blends authentic Mediterranean flavors with live music and dance on weekend nights. Guests often describe friendly, familial service and a welcoming vibe; some call it nostalgic or dated in decor. Expect energetic evenings with dancing and singing, and quieter, comfortable weekday meals. Note that live entertainment can be loud, which adds to the party feel but can hinder quiet conversation.

Casual dress is the norm. Guests typically come in relaxed, comfortable attire suitable for casual dining and lively weekend entertainment. If you’re attending a special celebration or weekend show, you might dress a bit nicer, but there’s no formal dress requirement noted.

Yes, guests report that servers are accommodating (allergies, dietary needs, and large parties). If you have allergies or need seating preferences, call ahead to confirm and mention details when booking. Because the restaurant can get busy and there have been some last-minute reservation issues reported by guests, it’s wise to call in advance to reconfirm special requests.

Yes, families dine here and guests often bring teens or celebrate with children. The vibe is welcoming and family-oriented, though there’s no mention of a dedicated kids’ menu. Weekend entertainment can be loud, so for younger children an earlier seating is recommended. Guests report friendly service toward families and a warm, family-run feel.

Busiest: Friday and Saturday nights, especially when live music and belly dancing are scheduled, guests describe lively, crowded evenings. Quietest: weekdays and earlier dinner times (Mon–Thu or early evenings) when the atmosphere is calmer and conversation is easier. If you prefer a quieter visit, choose a weekday or request an early seating.

For entertainment and a festive night out, go on Friday or Saturday for the live Greek band and belly-dancing. For a quieter dinner focused on conversation and food, weekdays (Mon–Thu) are a better choice. Many guests love the weekend vibe but caution that music can be loud, so pick the day to match whether you want party energy or a calmer meal.

Sometimes, guests have reported getting an outdoor table during events like A Taste of the Danforth, suggesting the restaurant may offer outdoor seating during festivals or special community events. There’s no definitive, year-round outdoor seating policy listed, so call ahead if outdoor seating is essential for your visit.
