Fantastic restaurant!
Cristina's gave us well seasoned and perfectly cooked, juicy steaks for me and my partner , both coming with wonderful sides. The quality of the meat was clearly premium and they gave us an Argentinian glaze/sauce called Chimmichurri or something which was INCREDIBLE!
Ambiance is nice, good wine selection and cool lounge music playing in the background.
Highly recommend it for dinner with partner, friends or family- by far the best restaurant in the area !
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5
I had an incredible dining experience at Cristina's Steak! The customer service was absolutely phenomenal - the staff made me feel welcome and attended to my every need. The atmosphere was amazing, and I truly enjoyed every moment.
I ordered the T-bone steak and Boa buns, and they were simply delicious. The T-bone steak was cooked to perfection, tender, and bursting with flavor. The Boa buns were a delightful surprise and paired wonderfully with the meal. The salad and peppercorn sauce complimented the dish so well. The food and drinks were top-notch, leaving me with one of the best steak experiences of my life.
I highly recommend Cristina's Steak to anyone looking for a fantastic dining experience and incredible steaks.
Called at 9.30pm, booked for 9.45pm and arrived nearer to 10pm as i couldn't find parking near by, they close at 11pm. The 2 ladies were very welcoming and attentive. The food was on point. The steaks were cooked to perfection! Seasoned perfectly, cooked the way we asked, and served in good time. Definitely will be back again.

Went to this place for brunch on Sunday. They have Sunday specials on between 9-3pm. Ordered the Sunday beef and chicken. The steak tastes is average. The meat was tinder enough with medium level cooking. Also tried the garlic sauce. The service is good. However, I would see room for improvement in terms of food taste.
Have been wanting to try out Christina's for a while now and it didn't disappoint.
We reached around 9pm but the place was still bustling.
We had the T-bone steak, spaghetti Bolognese and wings! Medium rare steak was amazing and full of flavour!

A huge thank you to the staff for their warm welcome and outstanding hospitality. Thank you to Sara for showing us the different cuts of meat and explaining it all in detail.
Cristina’s is a quaint, cosy steakhouse serving wholesome comfort food at its finest. It really is a hidden gem.
Cristinas serves our original favourite burgers (we’ve been ordering for 6 years now… my day 1 followers will know). We were invited again and we were thrilled to return as it’s one of our favourite places!

Every dish is full of flavour combinations that compliment eachother very well. You really can’t go wrong if you order what we did.
I hadn’t tried their Chicken Bao Buns before - they were scrumptious! An amalgation of flavours creating a delicious dish and buns were soft too.
Their American Cheeseburger is easily one of our favourite burgers, it is faultless. I’ve lost count of how many times we have ordered this. It’s everything a burger should be - mouthwatering, juicy beef, The 24 hour smoked Brisket was delicious - the brisket was so soft and flavoursome, bbq sauce with slight kick to it.
The Rib-Eye steak was flavourful and succulent with a rich marbling of fat. It was cooked perfectly (I asked for Medium), there are also plenty of sauces to choose from. The mushroom sauce accompanied it so well. I’d highly recommend you try their steak.
The desserts were indulgent, I thought my favourite was Sticky Toffee Pudding until I tried the Eton Mess today. Absolutely loved it, which i was surprised by as I don’t like creamy desserts.
Overall, Cristinas is a must visit and it’s also worth checking out their lunch menu. It’s perfect for families, couples, everyone really.
Went to this place for the first time for lunch. The place was half full when we entered but filled up really quickly. The waitress was really friendly and smiling. Really enjoyed the food and the virgin strawberry mojito. The chips were nice and crispy but was left a little bit disappointed with the amount if chips given with the meal. Overall very happy and will be returning again as it was a hit with my wife.
Visited as a party of 9 and it’s the first time everyone’s food was brought out at exactly the same time and all hot. The service was incredible the front of house staff were amazing and couldn’t do enough for us nothing was a problem. All 9 steaks were cooked exactly as asked and tasted amazing. We also had a gluten free with us and she was told everything to avoid but also given lots of options of adapting the dishes if she wanted to so she would be able to have them. This place is a hidden gem in Barking and we will definitely be returning. Thank you :)
Food was great, good quality. Staffs are nice too. I ordered the bone-in sirloin and a ribeye alongside some side dishes. Everything is nicely cooked. The salad and chips are good too.
The place is nice and clean. I did not book a table and it was a really busy Tuesday night. Just got a bit lucky that I managed to get a table. Definitely will come back again.
this place was divine! the service was so quick and smooth, the lady serving was just so welcoming and lovely. we got ordering and we sat down and food didn’t take very long to come at all. we ordered ‘the mess’ which was a little too much for me but would genuinely be enjoyable if that’s your thing. but that’s on my behalf for ordering something not to my liking, however it did taste very yum. would definitely come back again and try something different! also another thing with parking, there isn’t any specific to the restaurant so you’d have to park on the roads which is limited or at a car park where you’ll have to pay.
After reading a review decided to try a smashed patty.
1) Tasty n' tender, fatty patty. Simple flavours. Lovely crispy skin-on fries.
My photo does not do it justice.
Cosy venue and good vibes.
2) Rib-Eye Steak n' Chips. Lovely tender steak cooked just right. Fat rendered. A little high on salt but balanced with chips without salt.
3) Pan-Fried Sea Bass n' Beans. A fabulous dish. Aldente butter beans and freshness from spring onion or leaks with loads of garlic. Wanna try this at home.
Unfortunately Saturday night so busy. Lucky to get a table but younger staff seemed to have forgotten to take my order. When I called it in there was a long wait. Almost 55 mins sitting to service. A warning of a long wait would have been appropriate so I could go elsewhere due to late work schedule.
Service Charge was cancelled but food was lovely. Elder staff totally lovely and apologetic.
I am very fond of this place...
Well what can I say? Tiberius strikes again. Man this chef is second to none when it comes to the BBQ. This lunchtime meal deal is amazing with succulent beef brisket, extremely juicy fatty bits full of flavour. The tatertots are a nice alternative to your standard chips smothered in a bone marrow gravy and the surprise was the slaw which was sweet and cut through the richness of the meat giving this meal a perfect all round balance. Did I forget to mention this is halal too? Hats off to you Tiberius and keep up the great work 👍
Restaurant was quiet for a daturday lunchtime.
Staff were not interactive, took order and brought food to table, gave bill when requested.
Food arrived quick, was hot and well seasoned.
Great steak place next to Barking station. Cooked to perfection, generous portion size and very filling. The mushroom sauce on this occasion was very good. My friend ordered the smash burger which she really enjoyed as well. Great spot for locals or if you’re in the area.
Nice place, friendly staff, food was ok. I asked for medium rare but got rare instead which I couldn’t eat. Was too late to tell them about it as kitchen was closing. Not sure id go back.
Have been here several times in the past and recently I decided to try the Mess (burger) again. It was a take away order. The burger was fantastic, lots of flavor and decent portion. The chips were also delicious and a generous amount given. Staff are friendly, place is clean, cannot wait to try other items on the menu.
Starters we had Prawn dish which was OK.
Steak was sliced, had a nice subtle flavour. The peppercorn sauce was lovely. But the bone marrow garlic sauce was amazing! Would recommend getting this sauce. I would've finished the steak n chips n salad if we didn't have Starters.
Consistently a great place to eat, their midweek specials are fantastic value for more without them holding back on the quality of ingredients.
Staff are always very polite and accommodating.
I recommend the brisket burger with homemade chips, I can’t fault it.
They also do home deliveries, yes we are obsessed.
