We normally go to Berns steakhouse in Tampa for special occasions but friends convinced us to try Christners. So comparing the two venues, Berns is the winner. We split a medium size filet accompanied with a garden salad, baked potato, Brussel sprouts and mushrooms. Overall the ambience was good and service was commendable. Warren our waiter was professional , knowledgeable and personable. However to play with the big boys in this arena, the beef has to be exceptional and unfortunately it was only a little above average in both tenderness and taste. For the price I will continue to favor Berns even though it takes and hour longer to get there. Expect to pay apporx $100-$150 per person + any alcohol . In summary Christners is not a bad place but hasn't earned the right to be labeled a cut above.

The salmon was overcooked and the steak had terrible flavor. Both me and my partner could not finish our meals. The waiter left me feeling disrespected and people who sat after us received service quicker than we did. I enjoyed the decor to a degree but not much other than surface level decor. Multiple people were also not in dress code despite the description labeling a forced dress code or denial of service. Overall my experience was very lackluster.
