Absolutely delicious, the best smashed burgers I've ever had. I've been coming here for years since they first opened, and the quality of the food has been consistently outstanding. The staff are so polite and incredibly accommodating, even with orders that are awkward or a little difficult to adjust. Lucky to have this place on my doorstep!

We started off with some starters and to be honest my favourite item was the flash fried chilli prawns that we got. Offering a kick with some juicy prawns. We also got some potatoes shavings with cheese which was delicious. Our mains was the Sunday roast where the chicken was cooked to perfection. The vegetables were huge! We got a rib eye which we asked for medium which was okay. The chicken and mushroom pie was delicious although could possibly use some more filling although the pastry was great. We even got a couple desserts with the brownie tiramisu being fluffy and yummy with its different concept. The apple crumble and custard was a throwback and provided that homely feel, the crumble was absolutely amazing.

The food is fantastic..steaks, burgers the lot...very pricey for barking..had a meal with the mrs + 2 kids meal and soft drinks £100 (Includes a £10 service charge) of which I felt was excessive as service didn't even come with a smile or any form of enthusiasm from the waitress and being the only customer in resturant, I expected alot more for a Wednesday afternoon.

I went with my boyfriend the other day for some dinner. We got the chimichurri steak bruschetta and prawns for starters… amazing!!! both the dishes were soo good. For mains we went for the tomohawk with a side of the mac and cheese with the brisket on top, and some chips. the streak was cooked to perfection!! it literally melted in our mouth. it was a bit too much for us to eat so we did leave with leftovers, but cannot complain. the mushroom sauce and the chimichurri went amazing with it! We were way too full for dessert but i can say from previous visits that their apple crumble and the brownie tiramisu are sooo good!!! the service was also amazing, as always. Edit made sure everything was okay and due to her being so talkative, she also provided us with entertainment haha. They will be seeing us again very soon!! definitely recommend.

Been meaning to go check out this place for ages now. Finally had the chance after so long and it was definitely worth 🙌 Got a couple starters for us; Chimmichuri Steak Bruschetta - cooked perfectly, amazing refreshing chimmichuri sauce. Cheeseburger Spring Roll - definitely a unique taste. Literally taste like a cheese burger in a spring rolls. Can't go wrong 👌 Flash-fried Prawns with Chilli - tasty and fresh prawns (the wife's favourite) For mains i got the The Mess burger which was literally messy just like its name. The brisket was cooked really good and which rich bbq sauce the mac n cheese balanced it out very well. The wife got the Smashed burger which she loved. Nice juicy and crunchy just how it should be. Got the little one 2 mains (she could choose whatever she liked from both dishes) Veggie mac n cheese and the Baked beef meatballs. Both tasted really good and fresh. She enjoyed both but the veggie mac n cheese was her favourite. Definitely will be back here we all enjoyed our food and the friendly and accommodating staff made us feel very welcome. For sure a 10/10 highly recommend 😊

My favourite restaurant in Barking, definitely! I’ve been a few times now, each time was perfect! The food is generous, tasty, and fresh. Their steak is top notch, their lamb was so tasty and falls off the bone, and their burgers are just so fat and delicious! I love their crispy tater tots and their mac ‘n’ cheese. (Bring back tater tots!) I highly recommend the homemade lemonade too. I’ve also ordered takeaway online, and the food is just as good as if you were there. They don’t cut corners. Staff are very welcoming and accommodating, and the restaurant space is lovely - plenty of space for buggies/wheelchairs, and the toilets are on the same floor. A really good place, come visit!

The porterhouse and ribeye steaks were ordered medium-rare. However, the porterhouse was excessively tough, containing an unacceptable amount of connective tissue rendering it difficult to both cut and chew. Therefore, the dining experience fell short of expectations and did not justify the cost. Service was exemplary; our server was attentive and offered a sincere apology.

The service here was attentive and they are family friendly. The food from the main menu is good although they do massively overdo the salt. The food from the main menu is worth 4 stars in parts but their roast dinner unfortunately for us was pretty poor and we would give it two stars at push. To get a reservation for the roast dinner you have to order well on advance as they get booked up early so we were glad when we managed to get a spot. Unfortunately, it was a major disappointed as it had an insane amount of salt, it was all we could taste. The level of salt felt like it was an accident as it was so overdone and must have been the result of someone just knocking over the salt when making it. We did raise it but got told that it was normal. If that is normal, then I highly advise not ordering. If the salt was massively reduced and a normal amount was used then this could have been a great roast dinner but alas on the occasions we visited it was not the case. The bao bun start was decent but the jerk wings were tiny niblets with a some jerk sauce smothered over them so a pass for them. If you know your jerk, then you’ll want to swerve these. The steaks also appear to come one notch down from what you ask so medium is actually medium rare. The steaks come pre sliced and compared to other steak houses. Cristina is distinctly mediocre and for a similar price you can get much better. The beef brisket was on point though and a highlight and definitely recommended. Unfortunately this place was much better back in the day but still worth a visit.

What can I say other than I'm shocked this is the third time I have been here. First time was some years back. When we went there originally the Food was amazing juicy fresh and tender especially the brisket burger cooked to perfection. Second time we went there tried the brisket burger seemed very dry, the beef drippings and potato skins were decent. Recently I thought I would give it a try again with a friend of mine. When I meant the brisket in the burger was dry as anything I am not joking really disappointed from what it was to what it's become. That brisket meat was probably dryer than the burger bun itself. The smash burgers were absolutely shocking lacked proper taste and just lumped together with minimal effort. The potato skins which I ordered as backup incase food was substandard came out terrible literally like biscuits barely any potatoes moreso skin. Additionally the beef that went in it is now nicknacks literally barely any taste in that too so was hugely expensive let down. The waiting staff were too busy. Overall I would never come back here again. It's sad really as i had thought the brisket would be nice like the first time I went there, but second time disappointed.

Visited today with family and friends and loved it. They were patient with us taking some time to decide what we wanted but once we had and the food came it was delicious. The bruschetta starter was something else, while the smash burger I had was juicy and flavoursome. Of course I should mention the steak, which was cooked to perfection and tasted amazing. The service was great and the atmosphere is nice, with a good mix of families and groups of friends. Can't wait to go again.

Decided to travel up from Cardiff after hearing about this place from a few friends. Arrived half before our booking due to the roads been quieter than usual, upon arrival first waitress advised our table wasn’t ready which was fine as we were happy to wait, another slightly older waitress then said there’s a table in the middle of the restaurant which we were happy to take however the first waitress then said our original table would be ready as the existing customers were leaving. While waiting a walk in group of 5 people without a booking and asked for a table the older waitress then came up to us and said can we go back to the middle table as the other group was bigger and it would be easier for them. Although annoyed I said could we not have another table on the side as we had a child with us and didn’t want to be in the middle as I know she would be a bit loud, we were told no as that table was reserved for a social media influencer. Eventually we got seated and our order was taken, after about 30 mins my daughter’s cheeseburger arrived so I thought our food would be followed up. 15 mins later and after my daughter finished her burger I asked where our food was the older waitress said they serve the children first which kind of removes the idea of everyone eating together and our food would be another 10 mins. Eventually after another 15 minutes after seeing the social media influencers being served who arrived way later than us my partner asked where our food was and the waitress said she would go check. At that point I then asked if could pay for our drinks and my daughters burgers as no longer wished to be here, over an hour waiting with restaurant 75% full is unacceptable as I would expect a much quicker turnaround having been in the restaurant trade for many years myself. They did offer to provide a free desert however after having travelled most 4 hours and being disappointed with the service I wasn’t prepared to be sat there any longer, it seemed the entire night was focussed on the influencers and average regular customers were put to the side.

Terrible customer service at Cristina's yesterday (27/12/24). Whole restaurant taken care of by two waitresses and if you have the bad luck of dealing with the moody waitress (Marina), she WILL make your experience hell and ruin your dining experience! When we got to the restaurant Marina asked for the name that our booking was under and was carrying a white piece of paper on a board. I pointed my name on the paper to let her know and she replied with a bad attitude saying 'Yes I know, you don't need to tell me' and then angrily scowled. I came here as a party of 8, with my family. The food was okay except one of the steaks which we asked for medium well done came out pink. At the moment Cristina's have a promo on for 15% off which we can see on their social media pages posted as recently as just 4 days ago. When we asked the waitress, Marina, if we can apply this, she started getting angry again and rudely told us we were lying to her about the discount. When we showed her the discount being shown on the company's very own TikTok page she kept telling us we were lying and if this discount existed all the customers would be asking for it and the only way to get a discount was through the newsletter but 'if you don't have the code from the newsletter I can't help you'. We then asked the other waitress called Edit and she knew about the promo. She quickly apologised and told Marina that there was in fact a promo running. Edit's behaviour was good but with Marina yelling at us and having a horrible attitude, sadly it ruined our whole experience. Seriously don't waste your money or time coming here, there are plenty of other halal steak places about where they display basic customer service training and don't have a bad mood with you from the second you step foot into the establishment

We ordered the 0% Vegan Sharing Platter and were extremely disappointed. After waiting over an hour, we were served cold meat with visible blood, despite ordering medium-well. It looked nothing like the photos on their Instagram, which had drawn us in. The waitress offered to reheat it, but that didn’t make up for the poor quality. To top it off, they charge a service fee that is absolutely not worth it. Overall, a very disappointing experience.

Cristina’s thrives with their attentive service, all food and drinks served with a smile and helpful attitude. Their food and drinks are really the star of the show; mouth-watering dishes from starters to desserts - we left full but still ordered dessert to go! Their drinks were adventurous and exquisite, from a simple coffee to a barbie martini, Cristina’s has it all! Definitely recommend to anybody that enjoys steak (or vegetarian, they really have everything). Not cheap, but worth every penny!

So happy to have this in Barking. Such a solid restaurant with great delivery and dine in service. My burger recommendation would be The American burger for a ref meat option or The Cornflake Chicken burger as a chicken option. Both very solid, filling and flavourful. I’ve dined in twice for steaks and enjoyed both visits. I got the sirloin on my first visit and fillet in my second. Between the two I would recommend the fillet steak. You pay £4 extra, but it’s a much juicer cut and doesn’t dry out too quick or taste tough. I would also recommend getting the steak done no darker than Medium. Both times I got the steak with the gravy that comes with it which I think is enough to eat the steak and any potato sides. For starters and sides, I would skip getting the mac and cheese from here since it’s very basic, almost like supermarket microwave mac and cheese. I would also say their mashed potatoes isn’t very creamy and gets stiff throughout the meal, but I still think it tastes decent and is a good addition if you are having steak. Instead I would recommend the feta salad which is great and also their prawns with chilli and halloumi nuggets with chilli jam. I’ll definitely be back here to try more from their menu and am eager to their their sunday roast and Christmas menu!

The beverages offered were not of satisfactory quality. The pina coladas were excessively diluted, and the mocktails were not well-received. The starters were not to my liking. The cheese burger starter was mediocre at best, while the other starters were not enjoyable. The bread used for one of the starters was unpleasantly hard, and the prawns had an off odor. The steak was acceptable, as it was cooked to the requested medium-rare doneness. The portion size for the chips was average. However, the sauces for the steaks, including the peppercorn and chimichurri, were not satisfactory. The gravy had an unpleasant odor and taste. Also, got the brisket burger and the burger needed more sauce, it was very very rationed. If that was slathered on, it would have elevated the burger. Overall, the dining experience was not satisfactory, and I do not intend to return to this establishment.

The waiter did an amazin job. It's good that they have halal meats. The only thing that I really didn't like was the service charge (10%). I mean you are already paying quite a bit for the food and on top of that you get service charge, especially in an area like barking where there's no service charge at any restaurant. Overall a good experience and I would recommend to try it once.

Had such high hopes for this place, but they did not deliver! Potato skin - nothing special, flavourless. Steak chimichurri bruschetta - this was okay Lamb shank - my goodness, this was awful, no flavour in meat, simply drowned in bland gravy Rib eye steak - ordered medium rare but it was pretty close to rare so couldn’t eat it Fries - very dry. There were only 2 people serving tables on a Friday night where literally all tables were taken, so everything took so long. Definitely definitely won’t recommend or revisit.

Absolutely delicious. The Brisket burger is just perfection; you don't even need to chew it.

Meh. Used to be one of favourite places in London. Gone down hill. Got served a steak that looked boring as hell, no salad as it’s now chargeable. And got served by a lady who looked miserable with attitude. Shame really. Mehhh

Overpriced with below average food and drinks. Avoid for sure. To the response from the owner, it wouldn't be overpriced if the food/drinks wasn't below average, please understand that. And there are plenty of better places in the area.

Not happy, online says it is open. Drove down 45 minutes to have the food but then to find out it’s closed. If they are closed during lunch time they should indicate that on the website.

The really know how to cook a quality steak. So refreshing to find a chef who cares about the food that comes out of their kitchen.

Great welcome and service from the lovely staff at Cristinas. This is a spot I regularly visit for their steak and smash burgers. This time round I tried out the brisket steak, which unfortunately did not match up to the other items on menu. The steak was clearly pre-cooked and warmed up and not as soft and succulent as the meat I’ve tasted in the brisket burgers. There was not a lot of carbs in the meal either, and one gravy shared between two. Food came very quick and they were also good to accommodate for a baby high chair and quick seating during a very busy period. Prices are reasonable for London steakhouse, and plenty of drink options on menu. Overall, I would visit again but Sunday roast may be given a miss. Edit: Meant to say Brisket Roast not steak, which tastes a lot less soft and tender than the brisket in the burger and what I’ve had at countless other places.

The food was disappointing—cold when served, and I had to send it back for reheating. The steak was dry and tough, and the service was below par. The staff seemed overwhelmed and understaffed. Given the high prices, the quality of both the food and service was not worth it. There are much better steakhouses to choose from.

Seen this place for years and finally tried out their lunch menu. The food was delicious and a great value for money. We both had the steak and frites plus the smashed burger to share. Both were flavourful and surprisingly it did not feel or taste oily or “junkie”. The service was a bit slow as there was only one waitress on the floor, but besides this the food was worth the wait (25-30mins). Would 100% recommend and come back.

The best restaurant in Barking! Great quality and affordable prices. I especially recommend the lunch deals (Smashed double cheeseburger is my favourite) and the Sunday Roast. The Chimichurri sauce is delicious! The service is super nice and professional. I highly recommend it, both dine-in and take-away.

Had a wonderful dinner at Cristina's Steak with my family , it was a positive experience. The staff were incredibly welcoming. The steaks were amazing and perfectly cooked. In every bite, you could taste the quality and care that went into the preparation.
