Cristina Gray’s Restaurant & Bar

Michał Stachowski

I come to High Point a lot for business, a group (8) wanted to catch up, eat and have a few drinks. It’s been a while since I’ve been to Cristina’s so I was happy to visit again. What a let down it was… the restaurant was half-full at best, after waiting for a while at the door the waitress approached but was extremely uninterested in serving us, her first words were “it’s going to be 30-45 minutes…” we’d be glad to sit at the bar and wait but she didn’t even make the slightest attempt to accommodate us. After a short cold and rather brash few sentences from her we ended up leaving to take our business somewhere else, and most likely will steer clear in the future. I’m a business owner myself, and I don’t usually leave bad reviews, but this was such a strange and disappointing experience I think the owners should know - I know I would!

After arriving on Friday evening around 7 o’clock, four of us walked in only to stand at the front of the restaurant. No host there to greet anyone. We we’re waiting on four others to join us for dinner. When the server or hostess or whoever it was walked over to greet us, she was exceptionally rude. The first words out of her mouth were, “We are on about a 35 to 45 minute wait.” (with a scowl on her face) As if she didn’t want us to dine in the restaurant at all. Understaffed or not. I have lived in this town all of my life and I would prefer to support local business. I can assure you that I will never go back into this place. Nor will the two guests from Europe who own a large furniture business in this town. We would’ve loved to go and sit at the bar while we waited and enjoy a drink or two but her attitude, this not the first time we’ve experienced it, was ridiculous. I would think with the new remodel that just took place growing the business would be something beneficial, but again I feel we basically were asked to leave. There’s no doubt she was deterring us from staying. I’m sure there will be some lame reply like “I’m sorry your experience was not a good one”. We often try supporting this restaurant and when we do there is always 6-10 of us. I’m so frustrated about the service in this town and especially from a place like yours that is considered to be upscale. Sincerely, A concerned resident of High Point who cares about great service in his own city

Excited to try this place. Appeared to be fine dining. Beautiful place. Not many there when we were. Limited drinks from the bar. Small menu…food was ok and we were pretty much left unattended. All in all….a big let down…

Terrible service and the food was average.
