We've used Cristobal twice for big parties and they are phenomenal! Junior worked with us to figure out how much food we would need and gave a very fair price. They delivered everything, set it all up in chafing dishes (which we returned the following day) and I literally didn't have to touch a thing. They brought serving spoons/tongs, etc...Everything was all set to go! The food was delicious and everyone was asking who catered the event. It was so nice not to have to worry about cooking, setting up, etc...it really allowed me to enjoy the celebrations and spend time with our guests. I highly recommend Cristobal - the food is great and the service is amazing as well. Give them a try and see what I mean! Thank you Junior and staff for another successful event!
This is one of our favorite local finds. The staff is always available and attentive. The food is hot and tastes great. The margaritas are just how we like them and prices are on point. Smaller and more personal than the local mega chains. Worth a visit for sure.
I’ve been to Cristobal twice and this neighborhood eatery has a lot going for it. Mexican beer choices are great and the range of unique mixed drinks is awesome. I’ve also found the pours on the drinks to be very generous. Food is excellent…last time we had the fried cheese with chorizo sauces and grilled pepper… wow, this is such a great tasting and unique appetizer! I had the tacos Al pastor and the Central American plates both time I’ve been . The food is full o flat flavor and there is plenty to satisfy you! Service is attentive and fast… very friendly servers and everyone is willing to help if you have a need. I highly recommend this hidden gem!
This place is amazing!
I ordered guacamole for an appetizer and it was prepared table side.
So you are getting genuine guacamole not imitation guacamole.
Also the margaritas are delicious!
The food is delicious plenty of flavor!
Chips and salsa are great!
Very clean place prompt and friendly service!!!
Better than some of the big chain restaurants!!
Beer was $5. Margarita drink menu was extensive but a little pricey. The cerviche was tasty, lots of shrimp, but a little too sweet for my taste. The enchiladas were very good. Service was quite good.
Sooo. Me and my wife moved to Texas. We have been looking for authentic Mexican food. We have tried so many places. Gringos is gross, El Vaquero steals your money, etc! Cristobal is awesome they have the best of both. And service is second to none! We have become regulars and I am so happy to have found this place!
Family own and operated Mexican restaurant with authentic food and tons of options. Really good food. Generous portions. Best margaritas I have ever had. I take my grown children here all the time.
Have been here many times. The birria is incredible. Everything is actually incredible and you will not find better service. We just had a party for a friend and the back room was great for it. Thank you for everything.
Great local location for AMAZING food! We have never been disappointed! Last night I ask3d for veggie fajitas, so fresh and SO much flavor! Staff is always amazing! Storefront but very welcoming. We highly recommend!
The most authentic Mexican meal I’ve had. The strawberry margaritas was my fav. I tried three margaritas raspberry, strawberry, a mixed one of mango and strawberry. The strawberry was my favorite! The tableside guacamole was good. The service was great and the staff is friendly.
