Christos Greek Restaurant, Who Knew?


Not far from where on I live, down Highway 7 in Minnetonka is a Greek restaurant called Christos. This restaurant has not been on my radar whatsoever. All I knew about it was that they served Greek food.

Well, today I was missing Greece. I spent 10 days on a cruise around the Greek Isle with Silversea Cruises last October.  Truly the trip of a lifetime thanks to Just Girls Travel and Tours.

Lunch at Christos just made sense. I was apprehensive because I had only been there once years ago and wasn't sure what to expect. Boy, was I surprised.

I'll walk you through what we had starting with the Octopus, which was very refreshing. It came with fresh tomatoes and cucumber.  I'm from Hawaii so this girl loves a good octopus.

Our main dish was a dinner special with multiple Greek dishes to try. To be honest, I was so busy digging in that I forgot to write down the names. It was delicious, especially the spanakopita (that name I remember) the lamb and the lamb sausage was to die for!

I'm not sure how Christos has not been on my radar before, especially considering I sleep with a Greek man. Needless to say, it's on my radar now.

Christos had a private dining room for private parties and a happy hour Monday through Friday 4pm-6pm. Definitely work a stop.
