Christos Mediterranean Grille

The gentleman who served us would come by every 10 minutes with a different food option which was helpful trying new foods i dont usually try, the food overall was very delicious and reasonably priced. I travel once a year for the convention and this is now one of my go to spots when im there!

Stopped here during a visit to Pittsburgh thinking it would be a great little place for authentic Greek food. However it was not. The person who was waiting tables was, I believe, the owner. He tried to upsell everything, and told every customer the same stories. That was all fine and honestly pretty entertaining. Where I was most disappointed was the food. The hummus was acceptable but very thin and watered down. It was served with cheap, store bought pita. The lemon potatoes were old and rubbery. I got a chicken kebab, which was one kebab. It tasted like the meat went bad and was cooked anyway. I took one bite and was afraid to eat any more. The rest of the food was really just mediocre, rubbery, and tasted like it was microwaved. I have had a fair amount of Greek food to compare. I was also overcharged by a large amount when I went to pay the bill (which I guess was the wine which I assumed was complimentary since it’s not on the menu) I wish I had asked for a breakdown of the charges before I paid, I calculated I owed maybe $40-45. I was charged $56. I thought I miscalculated but honestly just think I was ripped off. The person manning the register was also the cook and would come out to ring up customers when the waiter called for him. Not sure how he could be doing anything but reheating food in a microwave to be able to step out of the kitchen on a whim like that. In addition, I saw that food and plates that were cleared from people’s tables were not thrown away but placed haphazardly on the counter near new food coming out. I was concerned about how hygienic it was. I would be forgiving with that if it wasn’t for the extremely poor quality of the food. Usually don’t write bad reviews but this was really bad. I noticed the only customers were tourists, which is also a telling sign that this is a place to stay away from. Hopefully this review can prevent someone from making the same mistake I did by eating here!

Good was delicious I think the Jackie O cake was the best dessert I’ve ever had!

This place is a hidden gem. The owner will try to upsell you on menu items, and it is well worth it. The homemade wine was delicious. The Onassis dessert was phenomenal. The lemon potatoes with the salad were great. We intended on just sitting down for a meal, but ended up eating a four course meal. Everything was well worth it. We will definitely make this a return spot next time we're in Pittsburgh. Parking: If you're coming from a hotel, then parking should already be handled. The restaurant is not a far walk from one of the many parking garages downtown. Street parking is also an option.

Such a delicious meal! Wonderful to have such a fresh and healthy meal after a long day of travel.
