A word from Christy's

No flash in the pan! Christy’s is the Grand Dame of Coral Gables restaurants, still packing them in after thirty years with its simple formula of great food and impeccable service. Politicians, CEO's and Celebes have all made this landmark a local favorite. From Rod Stewart to Tiger Woods. From… Michael Jordan to Governor Jeb Bush. Yes, this is THE place for great aged steaks and prime rib, grilled lamb chops, fresh Florida seafood and homemade desserts. The awards keep rolling in—from CNN, The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, The Miami Herald and the Zagat Survey. But the line at the door tells the story. This is the place to be. Best bets: the award-winning Caesar salad served with all entrées, shrimp cocktail (man eaters), prime rib, fresh grilled yellowtail snapper and signature Baked Alaska. Please visit our website for further details. **For reservations of 10 or more guests, please contact the restaurant directly.Continued

"Had a great time at Christy's. My daughter loves the lobster bisque soup. Prime Rib and Rib Eyes were huge. Husband enjoyed the sea bass. Service was excellent as always. This restaurant is one of our favorites!"

"After going to Christy's for 20 years, and selecting it for every important date, we were VERY disappointed this time. The food was not very good.
We assume there was a different chef. That could be the only explanation."

"The food was pretty good--besides the hard butter that was impossible to spread on the bread. The decor is outdated, much like the clientele that dines there. The service was not up to par, and it was a slow night. I personally would not return, but I would recommend it to friends over fifty years old. Would be more lively if the place had more pastels and less gloom."
