Wow, my first time here and I was impressed with everything. I was in town celebrating our wedding anniversary and we were looking for a nice steakhouse and a friend recommended this place and I am glad we listened. The bone in filet was perfect and all the food was great. Our waitress Luigi was awesome! Because of our anniversary celebration, he brought a magician they had that night and the magic tricks he did were awesome. This is now my favorite steakhouse. I will definitely be coming back when I am in town. I already made my next reservation for my birthday.

Very old traditional steakhouse. They seem to be most well known for their dry aged ribeye, which was cooked perfectly, but all of the sides were somewhat disappointing. Service was very friendly, and we were seated by the piano, so that gave our meal a nice ambiance. Prices were as expected.

We visited Christner’s Steakhouse for a date night and were greeted with excellent service by Mark. The restaurant’s long history and lively atmosphere made for a memorable evening. The bread served at the start was fantastic, and the Crème Brûlée at the end was incredibly good. However, while both our Filet Mignon and Ribeye were cooked perfectly, the seasoning seemed to have been applied after cooking, leaving them overly salty and peppery—a big disappointment given how nicely they were prepared otherwise. Thankfully, the sides, including Lobster Mac & Cheese and Château Potatoes, were excellent, and the Grouper Bites were definitely a highlight. Drinks were great, too. Overall, Christner’s has real potential, but we hope for a more balanced approach to seasoning on our next visit.

Christner's is always a good call, joined for valentines day and it was great. The food was really good and the service was amazing. We started with the Shrimp Sampler, Fried Oysters and Lobster Bisque. The shrimp was amazing, nice size and flavor was great. The Fried Oysters were cooked perfectly but lacked the flavor I was hoping for. The Lobster Bisque was filled with thinks of lobster.. like a lot. The flavor was good, but it was not great. For our mains, we had the Filet and Lobster, Ribeye Ocsar style accompanied with brussel sprouts. Both Steaks were cooked perfectly and tasted great. The Lobster was definitely the meal highlight.

Had the 6oz Filet Mignon with mashed potatoes and shrimp cocktail. Shrimp and steak were very tasty. The steak was cooked to preference. Had a glass of Orin Swift wine. Hostesses were great. Waiter was non-attentive. I rate the food and experience as Very Good.

Classic high end steak house in Orlando. Beef Wellington is one of the best I've had. Lobster mac and cheese is so good. Dress code enforced. Complimentary valet.

I really don’t think it’s a secret, and judging from the tons of positive reviews it’s not surprising. Christner’s easily the best steakhouse in Orlando. The steaks are amazing, whether a filet or a NY Strip. The service is next-level as well. Also, orange cake….don’t skip out! It’s MASSIVE and amazing!

Just tried Christners for the 1st time last night and it did not disappoint! We were a group of 8 . Food was phenomenal! Portions were great sizes. Ambience was elegant. An amazing place to go for date night, with family, friends, and to celebrate any special occasions! Will definitely go back! Wish we remembered to take more pictures!
