Kristos in Madison - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

The food is always on point. The new back patio is perfect for any size group plus they have live music most weekends. Will and Ben have really turned this place into one of best all around places to eat and enjoy the atmosphere.

Ask for your gyro with melted feta!

The cheese fries here are incredible! And the feta dip that comes with them is insane!!

First time here really nice cashier as picking up an order got a cookie and a piece of chocolate cake so I'll see how good it is looks amazing

3 out of 4 of us had the catfish basket. Fish was cooked great. Fries were cooked and hot. Way to go Kristos

This place has the best gyro in the Jackson area hands down. The service is always great, and the owner and staff are very friendly. You might have a little wait on a busy night, but just go grab a beer at the bar. The environment is great for families or having a fun night with friends.

The food is wonderful, the staff is stellar and the atmosphere is quaint and cozy.

One of the best patios to enjoy outdoor dining around. The food is good but it is the friendly attentive service and covered open air patio that wins ya over. They have live music outdoors some evenings but it isn’t so loud you have to scream talk.

I don’t know if they were having an off night or what. Kristo’s is going to have to up their game if they are going to compete with Keiffer’s when they open on the Parkway in Madison, MS. My chicken gyro had spots in it that were too hot and spots that felt refrigerated. My wife said hers tasted microwaved. The curly fries were great! Our server was also great!! I hate I can’t remember her name. She apologized profusely multiple times for the delay in our getting order. I give the food a D+ and the service an A-.

This is just like having a Keifers in your backyard. I live in madison and always hated driving downtown to Keifers. I was glad to see Kristos open up its doors so I would not have to drive downtown but just a few mins. Thanks Kristos.

My husband and I had dinner at Kristos last Friday night. We have been regulars for years. Food is always great! Service great! Shout out to Marian our fav waitress! Some of our fav foods…Loaded Fries, Shrimp Tacos, Greek Nachos - add bbq sauce and the Kristos Burger. DELISH!!

Consistently good food and service. Friendly management and staff make for a very quick, friendly experience.

The food was delicious and the overall atmosphere was great but our server Marian was the best part. She was extremely helpful, sweet, and fun. Definitely recommend

The service here is very poor. Not busy but our food came out cold. Waited for over an hour and it seemed like our waitress forgot about us. When I finally got up to check on our waiter she was at the bar on her phone and our food was just sitting there. The manager did comp our meal which I appreciated.

It was an intimate dining experience for my husband and I. Nice friendly staff.

As a small business owner myself, I know the power of a positive review! I am leaving reviews for places I love and frequent often. Kristos is the BEST! We eat here more than once a week sometimes. The porch is the best atmosphere, the service is always friendly, and the food is amazing! We love wine down Wednesday, loaded fries, kristos salad, and everything in between! Job well done!!!

It was good and I would go back but it definitely could have been better. We got the meatball appetizer and they were good but they were a little cold in the middle like they were prepared ahead of time and not reheated all the way. I got the kristos burger with the loaded fries. The burger was good but other than the feta sauce that came on the side it didn’t have a whole lot of flavor. The loaded fries were really good lots of cheese and bacon and I added some feta sauce to it. I tried some of the lamb on someone’s gyro salad and it was really good. I would probably get the gyro instead of the burger if I went back again.

A great small business to work with. I have catered several times (some even last minute) and their staff has been appreciative & amazing to work with. Stephanie is very knowledgeable about the area and their catering has a pattern of being timely and consistent. Will use many times again!

Great gyros on the lunch special. The fries were really good too. Seems to be made fresh everytime. Will be back for sure

- Filthy stench upon seemingly homey & inviting entrance. - Willing to retry once-decent greek spot; wait staff brought waters >>> TASTED LIKE CHEMICALS…bad start. - PitaMozz came out with pungent, burnt chips of dirty flat top 🤷🏼. - Left us hanging for 17 min, then finally brought check. - Atmosphere was good, comfortable outdoor dining in MS fall, live music, family friendly - still no excuse for above.

We had shrimp tacos & the BIG JOE sandwich. Really good food, service,& atmosphere

Great, attentive, fast, friendly service.

Had a severely mixed experience dining here yesterday evening. Service was fantastic. Jalapeño hummus was very good. Both of us ordered the gyro. The meat in my gyro was strangely mushy, pale and pasty. The meat in my husband's was mostly ok. I couldn't eat mine after the first bite. I mentioned the issue to my server who was apologetic and offered to connect me to a manager. I declined the offer, paid and left. Perhaps it was an off day in the kitchen, or maybe this isn't the dish to order here. I can't say we'll be back to find out as dining out has become too expensive to take the risk.

The food was HORRIBLE and the restaurant overall is filthy no good customer service. PLEASE DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY AND TIME

Food was ok. Service was great though.

Best customer service in town. Also food is great.

Very inconsistent…go with low expectations…I keep saying I’ll never go back but their meatballs were the best think and tonight the were garbage! Can’t wait till Keifers opens !!!!

Like every restaurant there’s been a noticeable decline in quality and quantity. The gyro consisted of a stale pita, burnt meat, pinch of vegetables and no dressing. The only thing that has increased is the prices. I guess I could have returned it but I didn’t feel like waiting another 30 minutes. Plus I didn’t trust returned food. Luckily for me your competition on HWY 51 in Ridgeland has keep their quality consistent.

Nice back porch. Fast and friendly service. Customized my order accurately and without a fuss. The gyro, curly fries, and flying llama beer were great.

Patiently waiting for Keifers to be complete :)

Great food, relaxing atmosphere and sweet people!

Come eat with Sally the squirrel! Delicious and always great service at a good price!

We decided to go in and eat on their new patio… they had no fire and no heat on even after I mentioned it was chilly when we first got there. Our choice to sit out there of course. We had a good waitress and the food was delish! Will definitely be back!!

I have eaten here before and I was impressed but this time I decided to try some different things on the menu and I was completely blown away. First off I do not eat everyone’s potato salad but this place has the best potato salad I have had In many years. The fish tacos were also great no shade to the Mexican restaurant but this place is going to the top of my list for taco stops! Eat here you will not be disappointed or hungry

Service was good but the food was so dry and unseasoned

*Edit* - Staff reached out and issued an apology along with a meal on the house. I felt this was a genuine attempt to make things right and I appreciated the gesture. Understandably, mistakes do happen when things get busy. I've updated the review to reflect the good intentions. *Original issue* - Ordered take out, they lost my order. Staff offered no solution or apology.

Love the cucumber salad and gyro.... service is always great

The food was good but wasn't as flavorful as the Greek we are used to eating. The old house location is cute but it did not have any kind of cultural influence indicative of the cuisine.

Greek with an American flare! The food was delicious and the service was excellent! Highly recommend

Good food, good atmosphere. The lobby can get a little crowded while waiting for a table but the food is worth it.

Kristos was a recommendation from a local friend as we were looking for something yummy and fairly quick while headed home. The meal and service were top notch. The young woman serving us could not have been more kind and frankly, she made our day with her enthusiasm for a couple a tired road warriors eat lunch at 2:30 in the afternoon. My chicken gyro was near perfect. I would have preferred the meat be a little more tender, but would certainly order it again. The fries was incredible but do recommend they cook them more as we noticed they were soggy/undercooked when we got to the bottom of the basket. Easily shareable too! I may try the shrimp tacos next time. I look forward to getting back. The parking lots was wide open, but poorly designed - as if they may be trying out how to best coordinate parking for the various businesses in the area and plenty of space for cars. Heads up: if Christian Bible verses or quotes turn you off, this may not be your place. Honestly it was refreshing to us and the service we received backed it up. Likely comes with the territory for the location.

Not the best falafel but the olives were delicious.

The food is consistently good. Friendly staff and pretty fast service.

Best falafel I’ve had in the Jackson area

I ordered an $8 salad that came in a Dixie cup, with a lid. I ordered an $8 dessert, that was 2 bites. I ordered a $13 sandwich, and had to search for the bun. It tastes good, but Not Worth the money. Granted, I used a delivery service, but my order was $40, before fees...Kristo's is a joke, and a Dissapointment. Don't waste your money.

Very good Greek Food with an American spin. The serving was generous. Staff was friendly and helpful. Will return soon to try more items on the menu.

Great service and atmosphere. Staff was so kind and helpful.

A delicious an quick gyro/fries. Always delicious!!!

Good food. Good staff. Good prices

A meal that will leave you yearning for more!

Always have had fast and friendly service with large portions for the price.

Huge portions! Food prepared perfectly! Even during the busy lunch hour the service was quick and orders correct! Impressive!

After a short wait, we were seated outside. Service and food was very good

Nice family atmosphere, no wait, sweetheart waitress, good food, can't ask for anything more.

Great outdoors atmosphere food was also great

Great food, good vibes, nice staff.

Loved it service was great food was awesome

Marian was my waitress and she is by far the BEST when it comes to customer service. She is well known for her hospitality in the community!!!

Good, portion sizes are excellent, but the salads need a few details like Greek veggies.

The food is amazing here! Very filling!

The lunch deal is great and good value. Fries have become better and better over time!

The food was very good. The menu is very diverse, something for everyone.

Not sure what has changed but the last few times I have been, it has been Great. Probably found our new favorite place in Madison.

Tasty Greek. Ok sized gyros. The food was filling. Garlic Hummus is good.

Nothing special.... Curly fries were soaked in oil and soggy... Gyro was flavorless and very messy

We have been here many times and have never experienced slow service or any other problems. The meatballs are very good but the lamb/beef gyros are our favorite. I don't know if it's the tzatziki sauce or what, but we like the Kristo's gyro's better than other places in the area. The curly fries are very good as well. Please stop in and give them a try!

Great gyros but they do not keep well to eat later- make sure you go hungry!

Fresh wholesome and super tasty. Outdoor seating is great. Service is good!

Good gyros but they seem to have gotten greasier. My last one had grease dripping from the wrapper fries were over cooked as well. Hopefully my next one will be better

The staff is always so friendly and they offer both in door and outdoor seating. As well as curbside pick up. The turkey opa and roast beef gyros would highly recommend.

This place has amazing food and the friendliest saff. Never less than excellant.

Great place to eat Great food and service

Love the pita mozz and pita feta, but all the food tastes great! Service is quick and good. Great family-owned place

Best staff always nice and friendly

My daughter and I had a great time and sat outside, despite the weather. However, sitting by the fire made it nice. The staff was wonderful and made it fun and entertaining for us. I appreciated the basketball game on TV and she liked the christian music on the speaker.

Philly cheese steak during lunch hours... I've found Heaven 😝

Gyro and cucumber salad were great! Loved the potato salad too🥰

Interesting menu, great food, good service.

Best gyros in the metro. Awesome "outdoor" covered seating in the back. Large selection of micro brews on tap. Friendly staff. Highly recommended.

Food delish (may I suggest the curly fried) and service equally as good.

Good food; reasonable prices; BYOW

I live for the buffalo chicken pita and their fries!!!

This place is always amazing! I can't recommend it enough.

The food was excellent and reasonably priced. When you enter, it smells so good inside. Our waitress was very friendly and caring. I would go back most definitely.

great food, great service... Highly recommend!!!

Nice dinner on the outdoor back porch. Social distancing is practiced.

We received excellent service, and the food was delicious.

Caroline was a phenomenal waitress. I suggest asking for her if you go!

Our waitress Caroline was beyond fantastic. Super sweet and very good at her job!! She deserves all the business!

Good food! Try the Greek meatballs!

Good food and the workers are so friendly! Hannah that took my to go order was precious!

The Ulmer’s (owners) are the sweetest people. The food and service is always great. Large potions so go hungry!

We always stop here on our way to Jackson. My husband loves the big spud loaded. Service was great!

It's amazing what you can do to an old historic house. Kristos is perfect for a romantic evening or a big group on the screened in back porch area. Terrific gyros. We sat on the back porch and enjoyed the fireplace. I'm ready to go back. There's a reason this place is so popular.

Lamb and beef gyro among the best in town, and that's saying something. Curly fries instead of hand cut or potato slices. Dolmas were excellent.

Good service and the food has good flavor but was cold to the touch. Like it was precooked to a degree. Nachos chops were not crispy. Won't be back.

Delicious food and enjoyed the outdoor setting.

We had an absolutely amazing experience when we visited kristos here recently for my mother's birthday. The food was exceptional, and the atmosphere was upbeat and family friendly, as always. Everyone i encountered was more than ready to ensure we had a phenominal time! Ill be planning all family gathering there from now on!

Made a mistake on and order and they went above and beyond to make it right thanks for making my wife happy

The ambulance is very nice and welcoming. Food was alright. The meat was very dry which was a tad disappointing. Maybe it wasn't their best night. I'll definitely give this place another try.
