Kristos

AWESOME FOOD!!! Every Time I go in janelle knows my order and is always smiling! She cares so much every time! My order is sometimes not correct but the customer service is so awesome I don’t even care!
Bradley at the front desk might take some skills from janelle on customer service and learn to not tell a guest NO!
Other then that I will keep going 3 – 4 times a week!

I don’t understand how this place isn’t given 5 stars by everyone. The staff, the presentations, prices, and the food were amazing!

Good food. The service can sometimes be a little slow. But the food is really good. Friendly staff. Good gyros.

My wife, daughter, father-​in-​law, and myself have eaten there twice in the last week. The food is great, the people are friendly, and not as expensive as it probably should be. We will be back every chance we get.

A few months ago, we had written Kristos off as a viable takeout option. I’m pleased to say that 2 more recent trips have shown a real turn around in service. Quicker and far more pleasant people are manning the front of the restaurant now — it no longer feels like I’ve imposed upon the employees’ good times by going there. Had to update the review — still a little pricey but back in the rotation.

The food was really good but the service was terrible!
The server took our drink orders and returned 5 minutes later to ask us again what we wanted to drink because she «got stopped three times!»
I had to ask twice to have my drink refilled (the only time I got a refill was when I asked for it, it was never offered)
We had to search for someone to get a to go box ans our check when it became apparent they wouldn’t be returning to our table. Our server was actually hanging out at the bar chatting with someone.

I’ve dined at Kristos several times now both at lunch and dinner. One thing to remember is that, as the sign says, this is AmeriGreek, not traditional Greek food. There are many Americanized Greek items (or is it Greekized American items?) on the menu that would make it a good restaurant for those who aren’t sure about eating Greek food.
You can get a traditional Lamb Gyro with Tzatziki sauce and find it plentiful and tasty. They also have things like a Ham & Cheese Gyro, which clearly isn’t traditional Greek fare! You can also get Redfish, Catfish Tacos, Shrimp Po-​Boy, or a Cheeseburger here. There’s something for everyone.
I’ve had the Gyro, the Catfish Tacos, the Greek Quesadilla (love this one). They were all great, had good portion sizes, and are reasonably priced for Madison.
The atmosphere is interesting. It is an old remodeled house. Some of the tables are pretty close together, but it doesn’t seem to crowded. The also have an outdoor patio with a TV that is a GREAT place to dine when the weather is good.
The service has improved since the new owners started changing things. The last several times I’ve been the waitresses have been great.

We found this place randomly while following directions to a different Greek restaurant, haha… The building looked so nice and it said Greek Cuisine on the sign so we had to try it! Turns out, it’s not traditional – mostly your basic pub fare with a Greek twist… I had the red snapper which was a little small and just mediocre, but the feta plate was a nice piece of Greek feta which was great! All in all, the young staff were nice and responsive and I think if I hadn’t walked in craving a traditional Greek meal I’d have loved it!

One word. no…Most awfully set up and serviced restaurant ever… I’ve experienced better run lemonade stands.

The mozzarella pita appetizer is really good. It has a very tasty side sauce. The gyros are amazing. The lamb was cooked just right. The baklava is pretty good as well. Kristos is definitely a place we will return to.

The service was friendly and my girlfriend seemed to enjoy her quesadilla, however that’s the only positive things I have to say. The menu was juvenile compared to other Greek restaurants. The fajita wrap I got was incredibly dry and bland. They really need to rethink their menu if they want to compete with the other Greek places.

The food is sub-​par and a bit overpriced. They do have a nice patio and staff but if you want really good Greek food you’d be much better off somewhere else.

We are fairly regular visitors to Kristos. While the sweet potato fries are good, the curley fries are our favorite. Always had good food and our go-​to pitas are the shrimp, the club and the turkey. The outdoor patio is always nice to sit at– especially when there’s a football or baseball game on and the service is always good.

We visited this place on a suggestion. I ordered the Greek burger with sweet potato fries. The burger was tasty and fresh, the fries were waffle and large enough for 2 to share. It was $ 10, not a bad deal for dinner. My dining companion ordered the chicken gyro but commented that it wasn’t great. The service was attentive and accommodating. 4 stars for being out of all draft beers at the time! Will give them another shot.

Price ended up being a little higher than I expected (drink prices I think), but the quality of the food was good. The Greek meatball gyro was tasty, the fries were much too soggy. Next time, I’m going to ask them to cook them crispy (maybe this is a Greek thing? I have to ask Wraps, Keifers, and Krilakis to crisp them up, but not Kiefers downtown…). Also, two people could easily split the fries. They were so soggy, I had to knock off a star. We had two orders at the table and they were both the same way. It was a shame too because they had soooo much potential (thin, curly fries with Greek seasoning). Anyway, I will certainly go back next time I am in the area for lunch. Maybe they can get that forth star!

Average food, immature service.
My experience. Quality of the food: Gyro was average, falafel was average, and pita with feta was good. The portion size was small. The wait time after our order was placed was very long. Service was inflexible to the simplest of request. Overall a poor value. I won’t be back.

I love this place during lunch. I like the pita-​moz to start with then I get either the first wrap on the menu or the second one. One is a standard gyro the other is a greek meatball gyro. I enjoy everytime I go to this place. Great food. Has a very nice outdoor area.

I’m going with A-​Ok here because Kiefers is downtown and Kristos is trying to fill the Madison Keifer’s void. Pitas are smaller than Keifers and soda/​tea are $ 2.25. Service was good and the paito was great. We didn’t try the appetizers but maybe next time. For Gyro action, you might want to dine at Keifers. As my wife said, «dainty portions».

Overpriced and was not as good as I was expecting
