"My co-workers and I recently went to lunch at Christy's in Coral Gables. Christy's is a Coral Gables institution. Its decor is classic steak house with deep red walls, white table linens and waiters in tuxedo at noon. Martini's seem to be the drink of choice and the Caesar salad is legendary. Although Christy's reputation as a fine steak house precedes it, what initially drew us was their participation in the Miami Spice program. During the months of August and September, participating restaurants offer a fixed three course menu for $20.00 for lunch and $30.00 for dinner (quite a bargain at Christy's). Of course, we all hoped that the fillet mignon would be on the menu and were a bit disappointed to find fillet tips instead. To be fair, the Caesar salad was, as always, excellent, albeit a smaller portion than I remembered from previous visits, however the steak tips were covered in a bland brown sauce that was just OK. The key lime pie was also good, but far from great. I have been to Christy's several times and, aside from the Caesar salad and the martinis, the food is consistently very good, but not great. Although some of the steaks are noteworthy, most are common fair. Nonetheless, the service is usually excellent, however on this visit one of my co-workers brought her beautiful and extraordinarily well behaved daughter to lunch. Since she is just a little girl, Rose was not munch interested in Christy's culinary offerings and requested some ice cream (chocolate and vanilla). Unfortunately, we were forced to request the ice cream several times (much to Rose's dismay) before our waiter finally delivered strawberry. It took us another several times before he finally brought the correct flavors. Unfortunately, this was not an isolated incident as he also disappeared as we were ready to pay the bill. Regardless, Christy's is really quite good and I would generally recommend it (particularly for a power lunch or a special occasions as their baked Alaska is great) especially for the price."

I have been going to this restaurant for 20 years and it is always excellent. Very nice ambience, the service is superb, and the food is out of this world. I definitely recommend it.

In general, our experience at the restaurant was wonderful. However, we were disappointed to find that the wine cellar was not properly filled. It took three tries before we were finally able to locate the bottle of wine we had asked for.

My family gathered at this restaurant again and had an amazing experience with exceptional service. We are headed back to our other home in St. Michaels, MD but plan to return in September 2020. Thank you for a wonderful time and delicious meal. View menu

Known for their exquisite petit filets, this Miami powerhouse also serves the best Caesar salad in town. And while the quality of their bread has gone down over the years, their service continues to excel, as does the clubby atmosphere which reeks of excitement and fantastic food. And don't miss their baked Alaska, or their key lime pie for that matter.
Doug
The ceviche was fresh and delicious, the fillet mignon was literally mouth watering and the creme brulee was perfect. Food presentation was off the charts and the service was incredible. The management was friendly and helpful without the slightest hint of pretentiousness. A down to earth, yet surprisingly elegant, meal that is worth the trip from downtown into Coral Gables.
