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.
This location has had dozens of restaurants open & close from the time I was a little boy. It's the only place I ever remember being open for a few years & actually doing good business.. & there's a really good reason for that. The food's awesome! The atmosphere is very cozy. Service is really good. I really enjoyed it
Food here is incredible. Menu changes often so you can go & always get something different. It's always packed so you have to make a reservation a few days in advance at least, & it will always be busy.

I have heard a lot of this Greek specialty house & I finally made it for a fine meal. The ambience & service is awesome (the family feel is apparent) The quality of the food was amazing, my porch stick was one of the best I have had, we will be back! The plates are very large & flavours were amazing, a truly authentic Greek restaurant with attention to detail. Even the water served is very good, no tap water taste here.
Christinas is by far the best Greek restaurant in Laval! Consistency is key in any business & they never disappoint. If the owners are reading this...please expand the place to a bigger location. We need more seats inside! Great good from the kitchen staff to the best waiter (sako).

Amazing Greek cuisine in Laval. Their roast pork melts in your mouth, & their moussaka is a family favourite. The lemon potatoes are so lemony ! The chicken gyro was moist & plentiful. The hot table has so many options to choose from (from stuffed veggies to lamb & fish). For dessert, we had their rice pudding, creme caramel, Greek yogurt, & ekmek kataifi. All were big portions & all went perfectly with a cup of coffee.
Visiting from Chicago for the weekend. We decided to try this place out since it's pretty popular in the Laval area. We thought the food was just ok & certainly the prices don't reflect on the portion sizes. $30 for calamari & a very small portion. Thank you but I think we will pass on this place on our next visit to Montreal.

We ordered takeout from Christina's & although we did not get served by a waiter, the service did not disappoint. We were immediately welcomed as soon as we walked through the door, this being our first time, we had quite a few questions about the menu & although they were very busy (Saturday night) they took the time to give us recommendations & answer our questions. We ordered the gemista, tzatziki, gigantes, Horta, eggplant & gyro plate. Everything was so delicious & fresh, it really felt like we were eating at yiayias house again. Would 100% recommend & go back! Thank you!
Oh. My. God. Convince me about a better meal please I'll wait... Usually I get full & don't enjoy as must the later services but from my first bite to my very last after 5 services here I am still going at it. Had very high expectations & damn were they over met. Will be back very soon.
A1+ for quality of food .Great taste . Service ordinary. Restaurant chilly when cold outside . The ambiance is very cozy. You can eat & have a pleasant conversation. With out loud music .
