Christina's - (360) 376-4904

The meal started off poorly with a discussion with the arrogant, overbearing and contentious owner. It got worse when the wait staff forgot to take our order and then brought us food that was mediocre at best. It ended with a bill that was way too high for a terrible experience. We will never even consider eating there again. The new owner is not from the Island, and with her attitude she won't be there long!

When I heard of the praises of Christina's from multiple travel sights, magazines, and books I was very excited to take my visiting family there. All I did for days was rave of how exciting it was that we got the experience to eat at such a highly rated restaurant. When we got there we were pleased with the location and the atmosphere. Unfortunatly, that is where our satisfaction ended. Our waitress seemed rushed and uninterested; as if we were inconvincing her. The scallops were good but nothing to write home about due to them being bland and the complimenting salad had a horrid aftertaste. The thing that my family as well as myself had problems with was how rushed we were. I was embarresed to have raved about Christina's and to be disappointed on most fronts. After we spent a hefty some of money for average food and horrid service we couldn't wait to go back to Orca's Hotel for fish and chips.

Good food given the location, and a wine list to match. Ambience is decent. The staff are a bit robotic, but the real gem is the owner, Bruce, who is extremely pomp and rude. Despite a tab of over several thousand dollars, and a well behaved party, he seemed intent to ruin our evening. I have eaten at most of the finest restaurants in New York, and have never once run into this kind of attitude and general disdain for clientele.
