Houston's oldest restaurant and most iconic seafood destination is Christie's Seafood and Steaks. For over 106 years, this third generation Greek family has been serving the freshest fish, famous fried shrimp and tender steaks in our lighthouse landmark restaurant. We offer a relaxing dining experience rooted in tradition. Come see why generations of Houstonians and visitors ( including former Pres. HW Bush) have made us a local favorite.
“Had an amazing dinner at Christie’s! The food was outstanding from start to finish. We started with the calamari and fresh salads, and the warm rolls were the perfect touch. For the main course, the blackened shrimp pasta was perfectly seasoned and the fried seafood platter was fresh and crispy. We topped it all off with a delicious dessert. On top of the food, the service was top notch attentive and friendly. This place is a classic for a reason. Highly recommend!”
“Our first time at Christie’s and exceeded our expectations. We started with the crab cakes which melted in our mouth, so good! For entrees we got the fried seafood platter, grilled Greek style fish sandwich with broccoli and coleslaw. For dessert we got their chocolate cake. We also had the mexata cocktail which was a bit on the sweeter side and two different Pinot Grigio. Overall everything was yum and would definitely recommend eating here if you haven’t already!”
“My mom grew up coming to Christie’s almost 50 years ago- I am in Houston for a couple days for work and she said I HAD to come try it. Happy to say that Christie’s holds up to their reputation! The fried shrimp are the best I’ve ever had. The shrimp are butterflied and the batter is garlicky and well seasoned. They serve entrees with French fries AND onion rings plus salad. My server Jerry was brand new and delivered fantastic service. You have to try this Houston staple that has been around for 108 years! Bonus- The owner Maria was very sweet and welcoming!”
“I have to admit I was a little disappointed. I appreciate places that are local favorites that have been around a while, but Christie's struck me as one of those places trying to survive on its reputation (of years ago). Our raw oysters were ok, but not very flavorful. The shrimp was decent, but the stuffed crab was very dense and doughy, and seemed to be devoid of any crab. The catfish, however, was fresh, tasty, and the breading was perfect. Honestly, even if I lived closer, I don't think I'd return.”
“Service first of all was wonderful! The food was mediocre at best in taste and none of our dishes were hot and the texture was reflective of food that had been sitting out a bit too long. This was a disappointment seeing that the place came recommended by Chris Shepherd after a short conversation.”
