Christini’s - The
Perfect Fine Dining Venue in Orlando Near Orlando International Drive, Disney and Universal
A Christini’s Ristorante Italiano, we have a long and proud history of providing the very best fine dining in Orlando. Founded in 1984 by the man with his name over the door, Chris Christini, our world-class cuisine, friendly atmosphere and sublime service draws in visitors by the thousands each and every year.
Chris Christini himself is someone with almost 50 years of experience in the restaurant business, during which time, he has been the recipient of countless awards and accolades. Chris has overseen the creation of the wonderful Christini’s menu, which features a wide variety of northern Italian cuisine that offers an authentic taste of the old country. If you’re lucky, he may even greet you as you walk in!
Quality Ingredients
One of the key factors that allows Christini’s to offer the best authentic Italian food in Orlando is the fact that only the finest quality ingredients are used to create them. Every effort is made to create food that is as faithful to the original recipes as it is possible to be, so our diners get the same outstanding culinary experience as our customers did decades ago. Our brilliant chefs also create interpretations of classic dishes for our diners’ enjoyment, which are woven expertly into the wide range of premier cuisine available.
“Christini’s offers outstanding service, excellent food and a truly authentic atmosphere!”
Our dedication to excellence is something that leads to regular visits from the great and the powerful to our wonderful restaurant. Many leading figures from stage and screen can often be seen sitting at one of our tables, experiencing the best private dining in Orlando.
Ideal for Convention-goers
The Orange County Convention Center (OCCC) http://bit.ly/2XmvhAh is an extremely popular venue that’s open pretty much all year round for conventions and seminars alike. In fact, it’s so popular that it’s actually named as being the second largest of its kind in the United States. Florida is known as the Sunshine State and when this fantastic weather is combined with top-class amenities like these, it’s not hard to see why business people and convention-goers flock in their millions to the area each year.
Our ability to cater for large groups of people is just one of the reasons that makes ours the perfect venue for hosting convention parties, along with our close proximity to the venue and it’s something that we are extremely experienced at. So, if you’re attending a convention at the OCCC and you’re coming with a big travelling party, we’ve got you covered!
Our Ivy room offers the best private dining in Orlando and is so spacious that it’s suitable for groups of up to 54 separate diners. Each member of your party will get the same, fine dining experience, just as if they came in for a quiet table for two. Chris wouldn’t have it any other way.
Great for Business Meetings
The OCCC is also regularly the focal point for business seminars and conferences and we know from experience that business owners and entrepreneurs like to pull out all the stops to entertain associates and prospective clients. What better way to create a lasting impression than to bring them to Christini’s for what is widely known to be the best, authentic Italian fine dining Orlando has to offer.
Whether you’re looking to wine and dine your business partners in our luxurious surroundings in a small group or a large gathering, the Christini’s team has the expertise and culinary brilliance to make yours and your guests’ visit one they’ll remember for many years to come.
“Our guests were very happy and said so afterwards. This restaurant is quintessential old-world Italy”
As we mentioned before, our Ivy Room is able to cater for large private functions and this amazing venue sits many simultaneous diners without losing any of its intimate Italian charm. Visitors are often wowed by the sheer opulence and grandeur of the decor, as well as the kind of service that leaves our customers feeling looked after and appreciated.
We also offer a choice of semi-private dining areas, so if your party is a small one, but you would still like a degree of privacy during your visit, we can most certainly accommodate. Chris isn’t happy unless every one of our guests feels like the most important in the place!
We completely understand that when you gather large groups of people together, organising what meals everyone wants order can be a really difficult task. The great news is that our group menus can take all the stress out of the situation, with a selection of mouth watering options for your group to choose from. Of course, if anyone in your party wants to choose from our a la carte menu, that’s absolutely fine. We just like to provide a convenient option for you to make use of as you wish.
The same exceptionally high standards that exist in our main menu is applied to our group selections, so even if you do opt for a group menu selection, you can rest assured that you’re still going to experience the best fine dining in Orlando.
The Best Fine Dining in Orlando
We’ve already mentioned that Christini’s Restaurante Italiano provides the best private dining in Orlando and this can only be possible with a fantastic choice of food. A great venue and fantastic staff can only take you so far, which is why the Christini chefs are constantly striving for perfection in every dish they create. Let’s take a look at just some of the wonderful dishes available every day on our menu.
Amazing Appetisers
A popular choice amongst our guests to whet the appetite is Calamaretti Fritti, which are exquisite Atlantic baby squid in seasoned breadcrumbs. Our chefs fry them to a beautiful golden brown and serve them up with a superb marinara sauce.
Another dish that is always met with appreciation is our center-cut, thinly sliced, prime filet mignon with parmigiano cheese flakes, drizzled with extra virgin olive oil and lemon juice. Simply gorgeous. Or how about some mediterranean octopus, cooked in a pinot noir sauce, served with creamy polenta. It’s enough to make you want to come to Christini’s every day.
“An incredible find! Christini's is my favorite restaurant anywhere!”
Magnificent Main Courses
The Christini’s menu is simply packed with delicious main courses, all of which offer a glimpse of life in Northern Italy. From classics like spaghetti al pomodoro to veal piccata, there is something for every taste and persuasion.
From our pasta and seafood section, you could opt for the delightful linguine alla primavera - seasoned fresh vegetables, sauteed in extra virgin olive oil and garlic and then beautifully laid on a bed of linguine. Or what about ravioli di pesce - deliciously tender, homemade ravioli stuffed with scallops, shrimp, crab and Maine lobster and served with a lobster cream sauce. It’s a seafood lover’s paradise!
If you prefer your fine dining to include high-quality meats, then there is an array of dishes to choose from, each created with love and skill for your delectation. There’s filetto al barolo - prime filet mignon in a barolo wine sauce and shitake mushrooms and pearl onions. Or you could try our wonderful signature 32 oz broiled veal chop, served with calvados apple reduction.
Whichever you choose, you can expect a superlative dining experience, featuring dishes created by chefs with absolute mastery of their craft.
Desserts to Die For
To round off trying the best fine dining in Orlando, we would heartily recommend trying out one of our eye-catching, mouth-watering desserts, such as key lime pie, tiramisu or torta al cioccolato di velluto. A simply delicious way lay to your appetite to rest.
“We walked in and were seated by an Italian who used to live in the town where my grandparents were from!”
This is just a small selection of the culinary delights that await each and every visitor that comes through our doors. Whether you’re a lover of fine wine, supreme steaks or amazing seafood, the Christini’s menu never disappoints!
No Chain Means High
Standards
Of course, a large part of what makes Christini’s what it is, is our owner Chris Christini’s dedication to creating high-quality authentic italian cuisine, but what also helps is that our restaurant is not part of a larger chain, like so many others in America.
As a result, we have complete control over every single meal and every bottle of wine that appears on our menu. When restaurants operate on a national basis, there is an almost unavoidable lowering of standards and that’s not something that we will tolerate.
This single-minded vision of what fine dining in Orlando should be has led to Christini’s being named in the top 100 US restaurants of the 20th century and the awarding of a AAA Four Diamond rating. This kind of recognition does not happen by accident, but only through hard work and commitment to excellence.
Make Us the First Booking of Your Visit
Christini’s Ristorante Italiano is so perfectly located amongst all of the many attractions that Orlando has to offer, including the Orange County Convention Centre, that you should consider making us the first booking you make before making your way to the convention or business that brings you to our beautiful, sun-drenched part of the world.
We are geared to catering for large groups of people, without it having an effect on the high standards we set ourselves. Having many people in your party can really restrict your options for fine dining in Orlando, but with Christini’s available, why would you want to go anywHere else?
If you’d like to discuss your dining needs, we would love to hear from you.
