Chez Christina in Milpitas

Definitely a hidden gem. I am wondering how I didn’t try them out earlier. The cheese crab, lamb, chicken in mushroom sauce, the calamari fritters and the prawns in lemon pepper sauce were all spot on. I am going back again soon to try the rest

Relaxing and peaceful vibes while enjoying delicious Vietnamese food. Came here for a team lunch on Thursday with a reservation. Chez Christina had our table ready and provided excellent service and food, 5/5! Ordered the steak with mushroom sauce and it was excellent. Will be coming again in my personal time :)

Change of ownership as of May 2022. August 2022 update: online menu is still inaccurate. For example, no bun cha nam dinh as listed in online menu. The owner said that online menu is pre covid. I had banh hoi tom thit nuong and it was good. Wife liked the onion soup and sea bass.

You ever had a time where your friend tells you about this cool restaurant and you dont know what or where it is? Even trying to find it on Google maps itself is hard! It really makes you wonder if its worth it once you finally find it? Turns out it actually is! After hearing about it for the past 9 months from my friends, Ive finally spotted this French/Vietnamese restaurant when i was making my way to golfland that is close by. When i entered the building, my group of 4 and i was quickly seated by the hostess and serviced with the even nicer waitress! While most items on the menu are $10 or more (upwards of $40+!) the quality really stands out here, most notably my sizzling hot plate of steak that came with salad, soup and surprisingly, French fries! The steak was tender and seasoned really well, so well that they use full on pepper seeds you usually grind! Their atmosphere is very calm and subdue with real potted plants unlike most restaurants which use fake plants ( feel them!) and when i went, there wasnt a lot of people, so they spread the people around the best they could. Overall, its a pretty nice place, if, youre willing to spend a little more than you want to, and if you do, you wont regret it!

Every dish is amazing, complimentary salad plate as starter. Mushroom steak is my favorite, main course always comes with tomato rice or tomato elbow macaroni. Fish sauce Chicken wings is very interesting, very crispy. Good service, very reasonable price.

Party of 10 ... food is very good - from escargots to lotus root salad to the steaks! Server, though, was nervous (perhaps she is new?) and got a couple of orders incorrect (e.g. ordered steak with egg and we got steak with pate, ordered vegetarian plate with rice and we got something else but server replaced the incorrect orde). But no big deal - overall, we had a great evening there!

SOLID … five stars with #honorsI’m pho complicated 🥳I remove the noodles and add vegetables for a lower carb version of pho. It’s amazing, so is Chez Christina. Their menu is deep and tasty in Vietnamese and French favorites, including French onion soup (you know, the little bread and cheese on top baked in the oven). Enjoy, this place is definitely one of my very favorites.

Wonderful experience. Beautiful decoration. Good food and reasonable price.

Last time I ate here was in the 90s. It was good then and its still as good now. Place has been remodeled to look more elegant. Tables are neatly covered with white butcher paper and folded paper napkins are flanked by steak knives and fork. All an illusion to make the overall dining ambiance feel high end but affordable. Well, it remains a hole in the wall with flavorful entrees that should satisfy most guest of asian heritage. The staff are friendly and somewhat accommodating. However, language and communication is a bit challenging so be prepared to be specific when ordering your food. The name is French but a far cry from Michelin star caliber food and service. Expect comfort food thats not pretentious. Lots of deep flavors thats down right exciting.

Food was excellent. I had the Chicken Cordon Bleu and my partner had a cod fish. Both were delicious. The cod fish was more of a fusion and came with a Vietnamese sauce. Chicken was cooked perfectly with ham and cheese embedded inside. It came with a bread that was super crisp outside and very soft inside. We also had a refreshing longan drink and lychee drink. Wonderful meal! Will return!
