I finally visited Christopher's and it lived up to the buzz! 🍝 The cozy, historic vibe is perfect for a relaxed dinner. I dove into the calamari, which was crispy and flavorful, followed by the chicken parmesan - delicious! The real star, though, was the dessert; their cheesecake is heavenly!

Our server, Jennifer, made the experience even better with her warm hospitality. Although I heard mixed reviews about the chicken veloute, I think the menu has something for everyone. 🥳 I can't wait to return for more culinary delights!
