"We did a takeout order on October 31st and it turned out to be the worst experience ever. I ordered a Frisco burger and for some reason the website would only let me order fruit as the side dish. In the notes I asked for French fries instead of fruit and my burger well done. When we picked up our food I asked if they included the French fries and the gentleman who later said he was the manager said that he was confused about the fries but would make me an order. When I got home and checked my bag the Frisco burger was with chicken. I decided that I would just eat the sandwich and more on. I bit into the sandwich and it was tougher than any chicken sandwich I've ever had and I realized it wasn't cooked thoroughly. I immediately called the restaurant and I talked to the same guy who acknowledged that he was the manager, I told him about the issue and he said that my order confused him. I questioned why no one called me to ask if I wanted the burger since I noted that I wanted it well done, we could have cleared up any confusion before I arrived. I told him that I would bring it back on the next day and I wanted a refund. He agreed.When I arrived the next day, he didn't want to see the raw chicken sandwich, he never apologized for the food or the $5 a gallon gas I spent to bring it back, he wanted me out of the restaurant as quickly as possible.I emailed the corporate office the next day and as of right now I've heard nothing."

"As long as I remember, I had a problem with the cacophony. It just got worse than I got older. Last night, my partner and I landed for the first time in Christo 's, but in a very busy night and we immediately knew we were going to escape to the terrace from the noise. No dice the outside was closed, so we had to down in the middle of the place in the middle of the whole clatter. For everyone else, it was normal for me, but I was miserable when we set ourselves. After a few minutes the owner saw the painful look at my face then came and whispered in my ear that she had something special for me. She took me on the arm, my partner followed and brought us into a space with no one else. Directly next to our new table, it opened a glass garage door to a beautiful terrace and then closed a regular door behind it, cut us from the main kitchen room and created an immediate small mini dining experience for us. Ahhh. Peace. Breaking waves. People laugh in the distance on the road and on the beach. Later, when the waiter knocked on our door to bring us our pizza, I opened it and looked behind it a few hundred eyes that looked us back from the main kitchen room. I asked, "Why are they staring at us all?" The waiter was like: 'Well, someone asked why you all of you closed to go with the door, and I told them you were suddenly famous because you invented Pokeman Go and needed your privacy. I guess the word's over. ' He let us go through the back door later. I love this place and would recommend it a million times over and above. Thank you to Christo's and her entire staff to take care of us and feel welcome."
