Reviews describe Christina's Cuisine as a warm, family run Greek restaurant that feels like home, offering authentic handmade dishes with generous portions and a strong emphasis on fresh ingredients. The menu ranges from seafood and souvlaki to moussaka and lamb, with several dishes that reviewers repeatedly call must tries, such as grilled octopus, calamari, and the roasted potatoes. Diners praise the friendly, attentive service and the convivial atmosphere that makes guests feel part of the family. Many comments tout the authenticity and consistent quality, with meals often compared to home cooking or meals in Greece. While the overall sentiment is highly positive and the value seen as fair for the handmade style, a few notes mention higher prices or occasional service hiccups, and some reviews point out a small, bustling space that can be noisy or less comfortable at peak times. Takeout and catering are cited as positive options by several guests. Overall, Christina's Cuisine stands out as a top pick for authentic Greek cuisine, celebrated for flavors, warmth, and a welcoming, homely vibe.
A family-owned restaurant serving up authentic Greek food. It was our first time here & both the service & atmosphere were very welcoming - our waiter took the time to explain the menu & the daily specials. The ambience is cozy & great for small groups. We ordered the pork gyro pita plate & moussaka, & both were good. We'll definitely be back to try more of the menu.
Always a delicious & authentic meal, with great service. Thank you, Dora, to you, your family & team. It's always a pleasure to share life's moments there, chatting & catching up, even when just picking up an order. Exceptional service with exceptional dishes. ~ Chahé

Ever dreamed of well-seasoned, perfectly grilled & flavourful chicken that remains tender & juicy?
Look no further. All of their dishes are excellent. I went in with no expectations, & I don't really eat much Greek food. But this restaurant completely sold me & I will definitely be coming back. The staff is very welcoming in family-vibe restaurant that caters authentic, delicious dishes at a very good price.
Delicious food! Everything tastes homemade & authentic & owners very nice & friendly. Did both takeout & sit down. I can say it's the best Greek resto I've been too & good quality price
Very friendly, warm & inviting restaurant that feels like home. Food is authentic & at par with what you would find in Greece. From seafood to souvlakis, everything's a 10/10. Not much else to say that's already been said in the 1,000+ positive reviews… will take pictures the next time I dine-in.
My husband's boss recommended Christina's Cuisine for authentic Greek's food. So glad we went. Highly suggest you make a reservation on weekends. Such a homey vibe. No pretentious food, just real good food. The grilled octopus is the best I had. Grilled calamari & moussaka were my kids favorite. My husband loved the lamb & potatoes. My first time trying kepasti & soooooooo delicious. Thank you for the great experience.

Let me preface this review by saying this: This restaurant is known for its authentic Greek cuisine. This is not what we ordered so I'm not reviewing that. We ordered Gyros with pita & loose meat with side orders of Calamari & the food was very good I can't complain. It wasn't excellent but just very good. The service however suffered terrible on that date Wednesday August 20th. First , we were 9 people with 8 glasses of water. I'll let you guess how long it took to get that missing glass. Perhaps it was coming from Kalamata.. when it arrived we were half way done. Speaking of done, my sister ordered some extra tzatziki sauce & it came after she was done with the meal. It was charged on the bill at first but owner apologized & credited the 5$. The busboy is a good kid but a lack of attention & engagement that night was obvious. There was a couple of other things that I won't mention because they were minor. I hope my next visit will be better.
Christina's Cuisine stands out as the best authentic Greek restaurant, surpassing all others I've tried, whether budget-friendly or high-end. The flavors, authenticity, & overall experience are unmatched. If you haven't dined here yet, you're truly missing out!

Christina's Authentic Greek Restaurant offers a warm & welcoming atmosphere, with friendly staff & truly authentic Greek cuisine. While some dishes can be a bit on the pricey side, the quality & overall experience make it well worth it. If you're craving a genuine taste of Greece, this place is highly recommended.
We had been meaning to try this restaurant for quite some time. We finally had the opportunity last Saturday evening, we were a group of 6. Make sure to reserve as this place is always full, there are limited tables. From the minute we walked in, the atmosphere was warm & welcoming. We mentioned it was our first time, so we were shown the daily specials, they included roast pork, roast lamb, rabbit stew, veal, moussaka, ziti & stuffed peppers, all made fresh that morning. The roasted potatoes were also amazing. We tried almost all of the daily specials between us & we all left very full & with leftovers for lunch. The service was friendly & very helpful, we're definitely going to be back, & soon ! Thank you for a wonderful, authentic, Greek experience. Until next time :-)

As someone who goes to Crete every summer, I am always looking for some place that reminds me of Greece. I've been to many Greek restaurants here but this was the closest I've ever had to being in Greece. The warmth, the love, the yelling, the Yaya in the kitchen, & all the delicious & authentic dishes both on & off the menu.
Highly recommend for anyone looking for authentic. In no way is it fancy, but as authentic as it gets
Best Greek food I've ever had. Calamari melts in your mouth & everything is cooked to perfection. My family is pretty picky but we all ordered different things & loved them all! Nothing is bad on the menu. Absolutely delicious & authentic
Where to start? Walked in without a reservation, around 3pm.
Ordered the moussaka & the souvaki combo platter.
The moussaka was delicious & smooth. The souvlaki was cooked to perfection, you can taste the charcoal & the authentic flavours of greece. The baked potato however, takes the gold medal. I can't remember the last time i ate potatoes this good. Slightly citrusy & soft that it melts in your mouth.
If you are looking for authentic greek food in Laval, this is the place to be.
I took a traditional souvlaki plate with two sticks, the meat was pork. I also took a authentic beverage coming from Greece. Soggy/greasy potatoes, greasy rice that oozes of grease. The souvlaki sticks where rather of poor quality, with lots of greasy parts of the pork that were barely edible. I spent the rest of the evening with nausea from the meal, I guess my stomach disagrees with greasy foods. I felt very disappointed since a good friend had warmly recommended that place to me.
