Cristina Gray’s Restaurant & Bar High Point

If they start rolling out a red carpet at Cristina Gray's, I honestly wouldn't be surprised. We walked in for our second visit and were immediately greeted by name like we owned the place! ​Our hostess, who also flawlessly moonlighted as our waitress and bartender, was an absolute rockstar. I’m a big believer that a great attitude makes any experience better, but when the food is already this excellent, that level of warmth really makes a meal unforgettable. ​The chef even took the time to greet us personally, going completely above and beyond by whipping up an original dessert just to thank us for coming back. Between the cozy, inviting atmosphere and the phenomenal team, my wife and I are already planning our next trip to see what creative new dishes bloom on the menu next.

The server was amazing. I ordered the olives as an appetizer and what I got was what appeared to be a jar of green olives with pimentos and put them in a bowl. We also ordered the cheese and meat.board. Had runny mozzarella cheese, 4-5 cubes of Swiss cheese cubes with some pepperoni and a funky salami, a glop of pimento cheese dip, more green olives with pimentos and something that resembled cauliflower. The polenta was actually grits and the chicken was so salty it was difficult to eat.

I went to a baby shower for a friend today. Helped decorate and the staff was great to us and very helpful when doing so. Once done and family started to arrive, apps where put out and mimosa bar started. The start was great and brought our drink to us etc. We sat down for lunch and started with a two option app between tomato bisque or salad. The soup was fantastic and made ever say “WOW”. Let’s just say we got excited about our entrees! We had a four option choice for this which I had shrimp scampi. I was extremely impressed with the homemade pasta and that in self we make me go back! Food was great! Location was great, clean glassware and plating was nice and higher class looking than I thought to expect at a baby shower. But so nice. The meal was served with great timing in my opinion. I will be looking into location as a potential wedding venue because of the chef first, staff secondly and venue third!!!

We last dined here in early 2019 and concluded that absolutely loved this destination. Service, food and ambience was amazing. As we were considering a place for a “date night,” we opted to return (first time post-Covid). Probably not our best choice. Walked in and the host just stared at me … I actually had to say “can we have dinner here?” He then pointed to the room vaguely. After a few more questions I chose a table past the newer section into what we remembered as the cozy dining area. Obviously there has been a re-do since our last visit. Bottom line is that we were simply underwhelmed. Service was average. Food was average. Atmosphere was average. They were out of meatloaf (which I remember living in the past). My roasted chicken has zero flavor and the asparagus was pretty tough to eat. We had to ask halfway through the meal for bread. Not the worst place to eat, but there are far too many other options out there in the region if I’m spending money. I’d love to see this establishment return to what it was before. That said, maybe the decision is to cater to a different crowd and that’s ok as well.

The restaurant is beautiful but the food was just a bit average for the price. The service was great however. It would not.be a place I would want to frequent except for maybe a salad and some wine.
