“ We went to Christner's for my partners birthday celebration. There was about ten of us, making a reservation was a breeze. Our entire experience was wonderful, our server was knowledgeable, made great recommendations and gave us honest answers when we asked questions about cuts and types of steaks. We ordered some appetizers, the calamari was the largest serving of calamari I've ever received and trust me, I'm not complaining! It was so perfectly cooked, it was tender, not rubbery at all and the breading was light and crispy. My only thing was that I wished the sauce came on the side because we couldn't eat it all and the pieces we brought home got a little soggy because they were drizzled with the sauce. Next time I know to ask for it on the side. We ordered a couple bottles of wine with the help of our server and trusted his suggestions on the sides to go with our steaks. Everything was lovely and overall it was a great experience. We brought in our own dessert and they were so wonderful about it, they brought me a knife in warm water to cut it + plates and utensils. BTW their desserts looked AMAZING and our server was so sweet to send my partner home with a slice of their orange cake in celebration of his bday. I'm so happy we finally checked it out because we will definitely be back! ”

“ OMG this place is amazing. It's honestly the BEST food I've ever had. We had the Filet Mignon medium (cooked to perfection). I rarely order steaks at restaurants because they are NEVER cooked right and no flavor. I prefer cooking my own. But this chef was on point! We also had the Seared Ahi Tuna (I've never ate before), our waiter recommend it and he was 100% right. We went to celebrate our 27th anniversary and try a more upscale restaurant. I'm so glad I found this restaurant and EVERYONE must try it at least once. Thank you to all the staff who did an amazing job. ”

“ First time trying out this Orlando restaurant located off Lee Road. Staff are super friendly and the decor is very much oak covered walls and multiple dining rooms that are open or private. There was a pianist playing and singing some Sinatra classics. I loved the calamari that was so light and crispy with the tangy sweet chili sauce. Their house salad was okay, not the biggest fan. I ordered the filet mignon that was perfectly cooked to my liking of medium rare. I did enjoy the mashed potatoes as my accompaniment, but the asparagus was a little too crunchy for my taste with little flavor. Our dessert was chocolate pudding that definitely was light and fluffy and not too heavy. Definitely a place worth trying out on special occasions if you are interested in some good steak. ”

“ Never have had a bad meal at Christner's. The service is always spot on even when they are ultra busy. The look and feel of the place is exactly as you would expect - traditional steakhouse decor and charm, with wide ranging selections of steaks and excellent wine list. ”

“ Do not dine at other steakhouse while in town. Christner's will blow you away with their amazing food, service and decor. They have a piano player and the ambiance gives you that OG steakhouse feel with the leather accented walls, wood paneling and loads of wine options. I had the strip steak cooked medium rare, which was perfectly seasoned. Sides of mushrooms, mashed potatoes, and asparagus rounded out the dish. We finished with the orange cake and bread pudding. They are also known for their fish. The ahi tuna looked amazing. Will need to try this next time! ”

“ Fantastic! Can't recommend this place enough. Great usda prime dry aged steaks. Do yourself a favor and get the seared tuna appetizer. It is to die for! Great service with that old school steakhouse feel. ”

“ Our waiter tonight, Jamie (sp), was fantastic!! I have been to many of the "greatest steakhouses" in the US including Berns which is about two hours west of Christner's. In my opinion, Christner's is superior to all of them when it comes to service and quality. You just cant beat the quality here!! I ordered a 12 oz filet (Pittsburg rare) and it came out absolutely perfect!! Christner's is so much better than the big names you hear about. If you are in the Orlando area and want to impress....this is your place. I cannot say enough good things about Christner's...... Seriously.....Christner's SHOULD be in the conversation for top 5 steakhouses in the country!! This is my favorite restaurant in the entire world!! ”

“ What an experience! My husband and I went here to celebrate our 10-yr anniversary and it was really fun. Here are my thoughts: PRO: I can see why this is a city staple for fine dining and a place to celebrate special occasions. You feel like you're stepping back in time when it comes to the caliber of service and the setting. The food is DELICIOUS! It is the place to go for a good steak, and the sides were enormous and very flavorful. The service is excellent. Our server gave us his business card at the end of the meal. Again, a very nice touch, and it felt very personalized. He heard us debating over which piece of cake to share, so he surprised us with both slices so we could try them. Very wonderful service gesture. CONS: These are minor, but ... We dressed up and were surprised that it wasn't as fancy as it looked. Lots of parties looked like work friends after hours (casual, people in work uniforms, shorts and t-shirts, loud parties, etc) almost felt pub-like. Nothing wrong with it, but it took away from the quiet, intimate setting we hoped for, especially for the prices we were paying. The location is interesting. When you step inside, it's like you're transported back in time, but the surrounding area is pawn shops and legal billboards. All good if you're driving, but it's not a romantic area you can stroll after dinner. Overall the "cons" are minor. It's a great place to go for a special occasion and a really good meal! ”
