Where to Feast on Greek Food in NYC | Eater NY

"This lavish, fancy-occasion-warranting steakhouse procures its cuts from its own butcher shop, located next door to the restaurant. Some of the dry-aged steaks aren’t simply seared; they also get a distinctly Greek treatment of olive oil, dried oregano, and salt. Most of the appetizers and sides include a small handful of Grecian standards like a trio of spreads (caviar-spiked taramosalata, tzatziki, and roasted eggplant), with some creative creations like gyro tacos topped with avocado tzatziki." - Alexandra Ilyashov

I feel a little embarrassed that I've lived in New York City for nearly all my life and waited until now to have my first chopped cheese sandwich. When the algorithm started pelting my social media feed with salivating images of Christo's offerings, I figured it was time to rectify things. If you've seen any pictures of these sandwiches, you already know there's no way it could taste bad. My husband got the New School, which comes with soft, seeded loaves that are absolutely loaded with a hot, gooey blend of beef, onions, and Cooper sharp American. While delectable, I actually preferred the chopped cheese sandwich, which also comes with cheese, lettuce, tomato, mayo, and ketchup. I'm as happy with beef and cheese as the next red-blooded American, but I felt the extra veg and tangy condiments helped offset the sheer volume of cheesy beef that are stuffed into these sandwiches. While the standard orders are incredible, there's a decent level of customizability here. Not a fan of Cooper cheese? Sub it out for whiz, provolone, Swiss, or habanero jack. Not a ground beef person? Get chicken, steak, or even a veg medley instead. If it's too early in the day for chopped cheese sandwiches, they even serve up egg + meat breakfast sandwiches. In short, there's something here for everyone. Inside, there's a decent amount of tables and chairs, but with all the hype surrounding this spot it can be hard to find a seat, especially around mealtimes.

Cutting to the chase, this place is damn good! If I’m being honest with myself, a solid cheesesteak is my favorite meal. So I look for good ones, and very often, I’m disappointed. Christo’s delivered. No huss, no fuss, had my New School Cheesesteak in under 10 min., and it hit! I probably beat the lunchtime rush, but no matter, Christo and his pal are excellent business owners who I can tell they have a passion for customer service and doing right, and they nail it. I drove 30 min. for this sandwich. I expect I’ll do it time and time again. Looking forward to trying the whole menu, this time I went with the new school and I think it’s my favorite sandwich ever. I might have to have Christo cater my daughters and sons weddings. I’m not a small eater and I couldn’t finish the sandwich. I can sometimes put down two cheesesteaks at other places. The only thing that would make my sandwich better is if it came with winning lottery ticket.

I have been excited to try this place for a while and finally had the chance. We ordered an old and a new cheese steak. The old has cheese whiz and the new has a white cheese. Definitely loved the new cheese steak and it's more than enough food. I was full after eating half. They have seating so you can eat inside, but we took ours to the park. There was plenty of meat, a good ratio to the cheese and bun. So tasty!

Fantastic! Was recommended this place from a friend and this plane did not disappoint. The bread was so soft and the perfect vessel for the meaty, cheesy plethora of flavors...I ordered the new school with the Cooper cheese and the chopped cheese...I personally preferred the cheese steak over the chopped!!! Couldn't leave without a side of fries! Order ahead or expect a 15 min wait as this place is pretty busy. They do have tables and the turnover is pretty good... we were able to grab seats and eat the food fresh but it was just fine when I heated one up at home! I'll be revisiting for sure!

Amazing food! Best cheesesteak sandwich i have ever had! Corn nuggets are dynamite!!! We love both the Mexican street corn nuggets and the Big Mac corn nuggets! This place is one of a kind and uncomparable!

Christo's is off the hook! Stumbled upon it shortly before it started blowing up, and the hype is all real. I've had almost everything on the menu, and it's quality and craftsmanship across the board. The North Shore is a must try (in store for the best experience), and the iconic New School is one of the (if not the best) cheesesteak I've ever had. Full of Hell is also in my Christo's top three, the heat balances out the richness of the steak and cheese. Super friendly people running the restaurant too. Pro tip for the busier hours - order ahead for no wait time when you get there.

Excited to try the sandwiches! Got there 1230ish. We ordered 3 old schools. 20 minutes later, I was as told it was next. 20 minutes later, I was still waiting. 45 minutes in all. Too long. Food was hot. Messy as advertised. Cool art on the walls. Good luck.

First time having a North Shore Beef that's not the North Shore of Boston area. Man this thing is amazing. You have to eat it here. The crispness of the bun, temperature variations between meat, mayo, & BBQ sauce mean you really should eat it here. They even give you gloves! I also tried the New School. I live 10 minutes from South Philly and this rivals most spots. Excellent!

I don't write a whole lot of reviews even though I eat out once a day. But this is an ode to the best cheesesteak I've ever had. I've had some in Philly and NYC and this takes the cake. Had the New School with Cooper sharp. I love eggs on a cheesesteak so added eggs, onions, mushrooms and peppers. To each their own but I'm also a ketchup man on my cheesesteaks. The bread was soft and perfect. The steak flavorful. As it was coming to an end, I couldn't even have the last few bites because it was so filling but I had 'em anyway. Coming from a bougie foodie who could tell you the best Italian restaurants, steakhouses, and more in the tri-state area, this place has my ringing endorsement. They get busy so order ahead and prepare for a line.

Christo's makes an amazingly good traditional cheese-steak..hands down.... But I too have driven 100's of miles for a destination meal....drove 25 miles round-trip for Christo's but I'm not sure I'd do it again. Small shop; street parking; very friendly, informative staff. The owner keeps on top of things on social media which is cool. I see him checking out all other types of sandwich joints. He's in "the scene". Normal selection of breakfast sandwiches and a good assortment of different (beef or chicken) cheese-steak sandwiches. They use high end Cooper American (deli style) cheese (or whiz, whichever you prefer.) I would stick with cheese-steaks only when you come here ( note: I arrived too late to get a breakfast sandwich, so no review on that) --New School Beef cheese steak was awesome; Simply a cheese steak with onions and Copper American (the Old school is with Cheese Whiz) -- Hail Caesar! Chicken Cheese steak, made with Lettuce, Caesar Dressing, on "Crouton" Garlic Bread, was good but very rich & filling. A little too much. Excellent french fries and corn nuggets! IMO what would have made it 5 Stars: a) There is no set time when they stop serving breakfast. It could be 1030am one day...12 noon another; either set a time or get a bigger grill. b) The Roast Beef & Sloppy Joe sandwich (a cold sandwich) has cole slaw as part of the main ingredients; if you're out of coleslaw, pull the sandwich for the day; otherwise its basically a plain roast beef on rye sandwich that does not make a good first impression. ( did we miss the Sloppy Joe part? didn't see or taste it on our sandwich) FYI--the roast beef was cooked perfectly though c) Expand your beverage selection. A used soda case is not that expensive; offer more than just cans of Coke, Diet Coke, ginger ale, Motts apple juice , and water. Christos has been getting great reviews and a lot of positive mention on social media. Now's the time to fill in those gaps and make it huge.

Review from a poor man. This was the second time I have been here. Brought the wifey this time. Got new school steak. The pros and the cons The pros. The roll is a tasty seeded roll. There is a good amount of cheese. It's not a bad price for the sandwich either. The cons. I don't feel the steak was a little underwhelming in taste and the onions are so cooked into it that I don't even notice them. It's worth the stop on in to try a decent North NJ cheese steak (since it's so hard to find in NNJ). But in my top cheese steaks? No. But definitely scratches the itch for a cheese steak.

I would give this place 10 stars! Best cheesesteak I've ever had. We ate one there and got one to go. Should have got two! We drove an hour 15 mins to get there and spoke with Lamar, helpful over the phone even more in person! This place has a great reputation for a reason! We'll be back

Finally got to experience the hype. I tried two different cheese steaks; New School Cooper sharp American, Steak, Onions Pairs well with: Deftones "Back to School" & provolone & onions. I must say well worth the trip and wait.

I actually saw this place on Instagram and had to give it a try. Stopped on here on a Saturday and it was pretty busy. Was told up front the wait would be 45 minutes. In ordered and ran some errands and at exactly 45 minutes my order was ready. I decided on the chop cheese sandwich. It was very good and was a nice sized sandwich. The roll of as very good as well. Service was good. Be aware that if you come in on a Saturday it's gonna be busy. People after me were told over an hour wait. Get here early on busy days. I will be back to try the cheesesteak for sure.

Came here to simply try roast beef, but definitely will return for cheesesteak. I truly wanted the roast beef on the onion roll, but my hubby simply asked for roast beef and mayo on a roll, not specifying onion roll. The original RB has relish and BBQ sauce while the North Shore has horseradish and BBQ sauce. It was lean and cut super thin the way I love it sliced! Plenty of meat and Italian bread was nice and fresh. I could barely eat half as they do not skimp on portion. About 6 tables to eat at and more like a walk in type deli atmosphere. Everything was clean and the staff was pleasant. Just wish my hubs asked what I truly wanted, but next time I'll handle myself. Gladly recommend and will update once I try their cheesesteaks!

Their cheesesteaks live up to the hype! The quality of the meat, cheese and BREAD is top notch. The steak itself could have a tad bit more flavor but honestly I did not mind it the way it was because you were able to taste the flavor or the cheese and bread all separately. I got the "new school" and added mushrooms, lettuce, tomato, mayo. It comes with cooper cheese, which gives it a rich velvety flavor/texture. Definitely one of the best cheesesteaks in the area.

Someone on TikTok I admire recommended this place. got the new school cheese steak and the roast beef sandwich. the cooper cheese melt well and is not too sharp. the north shore roast beef was just okay. the bun was good but the roast beef was cold. it threw me off and probably would not get that again. I liked that they gave me a pair of gloves for roast beef. the hours are 7am to 3pm. don't be coming here 30 mins before closing. this ain't Costco. it will take 15-20mins for the sandwiches to come out. cc accepted. seating is limited so. either get it to go or eat fast so you can give up the table to others.

Solid sandwiches but could use some tweaking. Bread for the CS wasn't fresh and needed some salt and pepper and a little more cheese. North shore was plentiful but again needed some seasoning. The sauce was for the north shore was great though. Worth the try, but doubt I need to return.

While it looks like a small hole-in-the-wall in a mini strip mall, this without a doubt the best cheesesteak place in Northern New Jersey (if not the entire NYC area....). We have tried all the various cheesesteaks, including the New and Old Schools as well as the Full of Hell and some build-your-own (adding lettuce, tomato, and mayo to the New School is a personal favorite). The bread is perfect, the steak is absolutely delicious and the Coopers American Cheese was melts into it like a sauce. Be ready to wait if you go during the lunch rush but it is worth it. The guys behind the counter really try to help everyone. We will be regulars!

Tonight's video is a serious one for me. Not only because this is easily the best cheesesteak I've ever had in North Jersey, but also because the North Shore Beef (NSB) sandwich is just as good, maybe even better. Welcome to Christo's Wake and Steak in Bloomfield. I want to add that the owner and the employee working the counter were both incredibly nice and helpful. The cheesesteak I got is "The New School". This is fresh shaved ribeye (no gristle might I add) with fried onions and Cooper Sharp on a seeded roll. If you order the old school it comes with whiz instead. Good amount of meat, tasty roll, cooper is just so good, and at a good price ($12.50). The North Shore beef is a massive pile of rare cooked roast beef topped with a tangy bbq sauce from Massachusetts (the owner drives there to get it), cooper sharp, and horseradish sauce on a toasted onion roll. These flavors together were fantastic. It's so messy they give you gloves to wear! I used roughly 17 napkins . Also had some fried corn fritters topped in a Big Mac style sauce that were really tasty. If you haven't been here yet and you're in the area, you should absolutely check this spot out. Christo's certainly Didn't Suck!

Stumbled upon this place on ig and boy it had us sold. The very next morning we planned to have brunch here and it did not disappoint. We got to the place at around 10:30 and was able to order right away. We got the old school and the new school and *chef's kiss* it was excellent! The cheese of the new school was so silky and just something I've never had before! We also got a breakfast sandwich for our kids. They usually don't eat the whole sandwich (like leave the bread or just eat the meat) but my four year old killed it! She ate the whole sandwich on the spot. Will we ever go back? YES! No doubt!

Kind of a hole in the wall but clean. Absolutely bangin new school cheesesteak and their bread is perfect. Service is friendly and helpful, though the only place they fall way behind lightning-fast Philly classics. I've eaten a lot of steak sandwiches. This is clearly the best in NJ, and as good or nearly as good as some of the best in Philly (Jim's etc, better than Pats & Gino's).

Different Cheesesteak #1206. I got a cheesesteak with fried onions. Pete Genovese's #11 cheesesteak in NJ. I saw they had 3 meat options for their cheesesteaks, steak, chicken & ground beef. I asked for steak. I'm pretty sure I got ground beef. I was really tired the day I went so I didn't investigate further. As far as a ground beef cheesesteak. It was really good. Nice roll. A lot of cheese mixed very well with the meat.

Order ahead (from 7am to 3 or until they run out). This hole in the wall is worth the drive and let me tell you why. It's the meat. The bread and the old school wiz. Service is with a smile and did I say order ahead? Don't be like me. Half an hour wait is normal. I'm patient and medicating first. Cranium from New Mexico before I tuck into the best cheesesteak anyplace. Yep. I'm a stoned fan!!!!

New School Cheesesteak - this is what cheesesteak should taste like. Juicy, creamy, delicious. Does not need any additional toppings.

Ok, this place is the real deal. Came here on a recommendation from a friend. First suggestion.... They close at 3pm. We got there at 1:45pm and at 2pm they were sold out. That was a good sign. Everything is made fresh to order. We were told it was going to be a thirty minute wait but it wasn't quite that long. While we waited, they gave the customers some pickles to snack on. I got the one marinated in hot peppers. Very good. Inside is no frills. Very casual and low key. What do you really need? It's a Cheesesteak joint. We got ours to go anyway but people were eating inside. I went with the "new school" which is with provolone. My wife got the old school which is with whiz and our son got the Buffalo Chicken Cheesesteak. We shared the old school and new school and personally the one with the provolone was absolutely phenomenal. Extremely flavorful and perfectly done. Well worth the wait. My son said the Buffalo Chicken was one of the best he had. If you're in the area, get to this place and get there early!!!

@christoswakeandsteak - Bloomfield, NJ Christo's has been blowing up over the last year or so for having a new school and old school style cheesesteak, but I came for this North Shore Beef sandwich. Not familiar with what it is? Well, neither was I. It's a toasted bun with a slice of cheese, stacked high with a quality rare roast beef, slathered in a unique tangy and savory bbq sauce with horseradish and light mayo. *Warning* this sandwich is dangerously messy and they even serve it to you with some gloves! I have a hot take. This is probably a top 10 sandwich I've ever had. You can taste every layer of each ingredient through every bite. This is a must try sandwich! Shout out to the staff who were getting slammed during lunchtime, but they were hustling getting orders out. Super friendly customer service. Good food isn't always fast food, and this is worth waiting for!

DO YOURSELVES A FAVOR & EAT HERE! I traveled 850 miles to Christo's Wake and Steak, and it was hands down the BEST cheesesteak I've ever had in my life. Great service, unique flavors and HUGE portions. In a quaint neighborhood, might I add. I had the pleasure to meet Christian, the owner, nice guy. His motivation is crystal clear, to bring amazing food to the community that nobody else had. Everything from the ribeye, roast beef, cheese to bread, is all handpicked for its quality...and as i'm observing the store filling up with customers, it showed upon taking my first bite. It's evident that this is more than just a restaurant, it's a passion project. A husband and father of two, who's there everyday making sure his customers get the experience that he expects. Something that you rarely see nowadays. So do yourselves a favor, ignore the faceless avatars that leave one star reviews here. Their diets mostly consist of cardboard fast-food chain items. It's not entirely their own faults, their opinions are just meaningless & just weren't raised right. Blame their parents.

Lots of times you see these social media reviewers bragging about a place and you go there and it's not even close to as good as they claim! Chritos wake and steak lives up to the hype! Best cheesesteak I've had in a long time. The steak was amazing, Cooper Sharp American cheese makes it that much better and the bread was fantastic! Can't wait to go back for more!

Christo's Wake & Shake is the truth! I made a one hour and 20 minute round trip to pick these up: two New School Cheesesteaks (wit Cooper sharp American & onions; if you want wit wiz, you need to order their Old School). I'm almost glad I just moved 40 months from Bloomfield because I'd become quite the heifer from wanting to eat here daily. Pics are just after getting home, a quick blast in the air fryer to reheat the meat and cheese and they were right as rain. Is it a legit Philly cheesesteak? Probably as close that you'll get in northern NJ. 4.5/5, would recommend if you don't feel like trekking down the turnpike.

Drop everything and go here. Omg is this place unreal. It recently opened and they're out of this world. There's a bunch of cheesesteak options including a build your own. I had the "new school" with added peppers & mushrooms. The Coopers cheese is so good. The fries are delicious and fresh. Service was fantastic and FAST. Rosa the cashier was lovely. Soft drinks available. Good amount of seating inside. Very reasonably priced.

Clean. Great Customer Service. Now let's talk about the cheesesteak. I was really looking forward to this as it was being marketed as a Philly style cheesesteak. The actual meat itself was very tender, juicy, and well seasoned. What I was really looking forward to was the actual role that would be utilized for the cheesesteak. In Philly, a lot of the restaurants that serve cheesesteaks use a seeded special roll. It is typically a little crusty, so there is a little gift to it. Crystal had the seated roll, but it was more dough. That was a little disappointing. In terms of cheesesteaks that I've had in New Jersey on the scale of one to 10 I will give crystals cheesesteak and 8.25 In terms of, which is in Philadelphia, which I considered the best cheesesteak overall., I would give the cheesesteak a 7.1 I would recommend that you try the cheesesteak at Cristos if you are 30 minutes or less away.

No frills cheesesteak spot. Be prepared to wait, not a huge operation. Ordered the OG and the new school. Both were good, the new school was dynamite. This place is worth a try for sure, probably the best cheesesteak in the area. Gotta come back to try one of the northshore beefs!

My main food goal when I visit the north is to get a good sandwich. I was doomscrolling food places in Bloomfield and came across wake and steak. People were RAVING. We weren't disappointed. We got the cheesesteak old school and Hail Caesar. Both were delicious. We added pickled jalapeños to ours when we got home and it enhanced the flavor even more. They are not shy about the protein portions either.

Cheesesteak was great. However, fries, cheesesteak and two waters was $24. I can do the same thing in my town with two beers for $24. Sandwich was great, don't get me wrong. I'll probably go back & skip the fries and an extra water. Service was about a 15 minute wait. I ate there and the ambiance is nothing special.

I came to Christo's Wake and Steak after seeing them on Instagram... We walked in and was IMMEDIATELY greeted. We said we're new to the place and the guy behind the counter was very gracious and explained the menu .. We decided on The NEW school cheesesteak which is a cheese steak with milk based cheese (NOT CHEEZ WHIZ) grilled onions and grilled mushrooms.. THAT CHEESE WAS BOMB !!! It was very tasty with the hero bread w/ sesame seeds (my fav) I really enjoyed my time there, everyone was friendly (including who I believed to be the owner) came out and greeted us and made sure everything was ok. The only caveat I would say is they really don't have a great selection of things to drink .. other than that my experience was very positive.. I would go back . Don't expect an elegant dining room ( That's not what this place is about ) it's about quality meat served by quality people

Just picked up some lunch and I can say this spot is worth the hype. No frills on the inside, but the cheese steaks speak for themselves. The staff is super friendly, and the food came out pretty fast (they got packed right after we ordered). I got the new school, which comes with onions, cooper sharp cheese on a beautiful soft seeded roll. The steak was perfectly cooked, tender, juicy, with little crispy bits all throughout. They add the perfect amount of cheese which adds a great contrast to the steak. We did get an order of fries as well, which weren't for me....I prefer a thin and crispy fry compared to the style they serve. I gotta come back and try the chopped cheese and breakfast sandwiches.

Was in the mood for a cheesesteak today, and found this place. Ordered an old school, then a chicken cheesesteak and a Nashville chicken. One word review consistent across all three sandwiches: mid

Absolutely delicious. No frills inside but clean. The counter guy was very friendly. About 5 tables inside. The menu is clever, very clear in its descriptions and prices. I ordered the Old School cheesesteak as this was my first visit.

I've tried both the new school and the old school cheesesteaks. I would recommend the new school version with the cooper sharp cheese. The old school with whiz oddly lacked a salt bite. The whiz was just creamy. I remember cheese whiz as being saltier. Oh well. In both sandwiches, the plentiful beef had good flavor and texture. The sesame seed crusted bread, while soft, wasn't too soft, and had good flavor. However, I had reheated a leftover half in the air fryer for dinner and it took the sandwich to another level, making the roll nice and crusty (and warm). Really, really good. This is a small operation. The place gets crowded during the lunch hour (12pm - 1pm) creating long wait times to get your (tasty) sandwich. I went around 11:45am and had to wait about half an hour after ordering. I mean, I get it. They're making your sandwich fresh. Gotta wait.

I've been wanting to try Christo's out for a while based on all the positive reviews and because they share my love for Cooper sharp cheese. I've had my share of cheesesteaks throughout Jersey and in Philly. This is one of the best, if not the best, cheesesteaks I've ever had. The meat is flavorful and they give you more than enough. The cooper sharp and onions give it a nice kick and the seeded roll, while soft, does a great job of holding everything together. I loved everything about this place. My only advice is either call ahead or get there early. We got there around 10 am and business picked up almost immediately after we sat down.

FINALLY! A cheesesteak spot in north Jersey that is good & uses cooper sharp! The cheesesteak I ordered was the new school cheesesteak with cooper sharp & fried onions. It was delicious. Perfectly seasoned & cooked. Service was fast & I left extremely happy. Definitely will be my go to spot when ordering a cheesesteak.

This might be the best cheesesteak around. The rolls are incredible. Friendly staff and don't be discouraged by the wait time. it's well worth it

Man oh man did I find gold and there was no rainbow at the end. Looking for good good breakfast spot that also makes great cheese stakes. Here you have it. North Jersey has a hero.wink wink.. to be fair the place is not a glamorous environment, but the food makes up 120% of any doubt you may have. When you walk in you greeted by polite young man named Eric I'm very sure the owner didn't get that person. But I didn't make him a promise that I will return. To make your order experience better and you don't have to wait. Call him ahead of time and make your order so when you walk in you pick up and get out. For being such a baby eatery, which will grow pretty quick. They are very busy. I waited under a half hour for a cheesesteak with bacon and fried egg. It was worth every dollar and every minute. I also sat down and eat inside, so I did it with her make a mess in my car cause I know what kind of a pig I am. Don't miss this place out. So if you're near the parkway or route three, give this guy a chance you won't regret it.

Best cheesesteak I've had outside of being in Philly‼. I'm going to have to try and not want cheesesteaks now because it was that good I'm returning soon

Don't let the stem interior fool you, this place is a cheesesteak gold mine. Great seeded roll and the copper sharp is a nice touch.

The steak sandwiches are the best they are always busy so place your order in advance .

Easy 5 stars. By far the best cheesesteak I've ever had in my life. I had the new school. That Cooper cheese is something else. Better than anything in Philly. Yup I said it. Here's the deal though. It's a new place. So busy that they've been running out of food. Order took 50 minutes. I'm very impatient but after I ate that I would waited two hours. Just be patient guaranteed won't be disappointed. Top notch. I can't wait to go back.
