Christianos Pizza — Restaurant in City of Green Lake

First things first, bravo to Christianos for compiling an impressive menu of craft beers. In the past, the absence of 'any' wine or beers options detracted from the dining experience at this establishment. The general manager definitely put some thought into their beer list - it is not the typical Miller High Life / Bud Light type of fare you usually see from area restaurants. I loved the Nut Brown Ale from Ashland's South Shore Brewery - it complemented the meal and made a special occasion (my dad's 80th birthday) even more memorable. I posted a picture of the beer list, since that information is currently not available online.

Second, Christiano's did a tremendous job improving the quality of their pizza crust. A great pizza is a balancing act between the crust, sauce and toppings. Each component should complement the other. If one component fails, the pizza as a whole suffers. In the past, the crust has been the weak link, but not last night. Golden brown on the exterior and no soggy spots in the center of the pie with great chew and flavor, the kitchen did a superb job nailing this component.

As in prior visits, the properly seasoned sauce tasted fresh with the acidity of the tomatoes being balanced out with a hint of sweetness. While I would have preferred a little more concentrated tomato flavor, I felt the red sauce complimented the other components.

With over 30 topping options, Christianos provides all the traditional favorites. It is still a little disappointing not to see cheese options like feta or chevre or specialty Italian meats like Prosciutto Ham. Nonetheless, it is not difficult to construct a pie that needs the needs of your group. I'm a fan of the flavorful sausage and the vegetable topping are all fresh and generously applied. I also enjoyed the quantity and fresh quality of the cheese.

While best known for their pizzas, the menu boasts a wide variety of pastas, sandwiches and salads. There also offer gelato and cannoli as dessert options. In addition, if you have the kiddos in tow, there are plenty of kid-friendly options on the menu.

I have always experienced stellar service during any of my visits to the restaurant and last night was no exception. Roberta helped ensure last night's birthday festivities went off without a hitch. She performed all the duties of a great server (prompt order taking, explaining menu options, keeping us properly hydrated, maintaining proper flow of the meal, clearing dirty dishes, checking on our satisfaction with each course, etc.) with an infectious cheerfulness.

Seated near the open kitchen, the noise level made it difficult at times to carry on a conversation. That was really the only negative of a truly wonderful evening.

Therefore, if you are looking for a casual dining option after spending a day gallivanting around the Green Lake area, you cannot go wrong giving...

No Covid-19 Precautions being taken. If you are concerned about being exposed, this may not be the place for you at this time. Everyone can assess their own comfort level. My rating reflects this visit.

I have been enjoying the food and great service at Christianos in Green Lake every month for over 5 years. I really like this place. During the last three months of quarantine, I missed eating here and catching up with staff members.

I recently went back to enjoy a another great meal and was surprised to find no visible measures being taken to prevent the spread of Covid-19.

No employee was wearing a mask No social distancing of tables was evident Servers were not wearing gloves or masks Tables were not being sanitized between uses

During our dinner, I watched numerous employees running the hands through their hair and then touch glasses, plates, etc. Employees grouped together socializing. No hand sanitizer was available and when servers cleared a table, the table itself was not sanitized between groups.

With the large amount of out of state visitors that come to this area, it is really surprising to me not to see any preventive measures.

I like this family business but will refrain from dining there again as there is no concern for customer or employee health or safety. My choice. To each their own.

The pizza was good as always but service was not as good as before the shutdown. But that is to be expected as businesses gear back up and train new staff.. I wish Christianos good luck and all the best!!! I hope to visit again...

I don't do reviews often but this time I had to. My family and I love Christianos and it's always a nice dinner. Tonight the food was no different than it usually is, nothing less than awesome. But the communication of this place is less than awesome. I called in to make an order for delivery and I wanted to use a gift card. The woman on the phone told me that the card was not working and that the delivery man would take care of it. Once the delivery man arrived he had no clue what I was talking about. I had to call the resturant and explain the situation to them, and the man I talked to on the phone proceeded to tell me to hang up and have the delivery guy call him. Once the delivery man called they were able to get everything working with the gift card. Mind you this was about 15 minutes of standing outside with the delivery guy. We were all set to go and went inside to start eating, only to realize that one of the pizza was made wrong. Don't get me wrong I love the food, just a little...
