Overall, Christina's Cuisine is celebrated as a warm, family-run Greek restaurant offering authentic, home-style cooking with fresh ingredients, generous portions, and friendly service that creates a comforting Greek atmosphere; many reviews highlight standout dishes such as moussaka, roast pork, souvlaki, calamari, and octopus, while the menu and daily specials are enjoyed for their variety and homestyle flavors; most guests feel it delivers value and authenticity, with a few notes about occasional price differences for takeout, crowded spaces, or occasional service missteps on busy nights, and there is a strong sense of loyalty and plans to return.
Delicious Greek food in Laval. Decided to try it because of all the good reviews & I wasn't disappointed. Calamaris were very good & so were the other dishes.
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.

I really should not be writing this, the last thing I would ever want is this place to become too busy for me to get my fix.
BUT ! they are so so nice & it is so so delicious I can't help myself.
Our family has been coming to Christina's Cuisine for close to 4 years now & we have never been disappointed.
It's a family run restaurant full of as much charme as you can squeeze into a Laval strip mall. Somehow, once you take your first bite, everything just disappears & all you can see are the photos of Greece on the wall come to life.
Best Moussaka, best roast pork ever.
There is the Menu, where you will find all the Greek restaurant staples... & then, there is the daily specials under glass at the counter / kitchen. Always a fresh fish (if you get there early), vegetables, bean dishes, Lamb, pork & more right there laid out in front of you.
On top of all that, the service is outstanding & convivial.
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
Best greek food in mtl area! Great service, people are soooo nice. Homemade food pack of flavors. Really big size plate. Option for vegeterian also. Highly recommend the place.

Very good Greek food prepared by Christina's family. You can experience as much as the standard greek food as well as you can try the traditional Greek recipes.
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.
Christina's has amazing, authentic Greek food. I was always reluctant to try the most famous Greek dishes (moussaka & pastitsio), but they turned out to be incredible, with so much flavor. 100% coming back for my favourite plate which was the moussaka. I also had the lemon potatoes, which were a bit too salty, but overall, good.
