C H R I S TA K I S GREEK RESTAURANT 256-258 Smithdown Road, Liverpool L15 5AH Telephone: 0151 733 0375 Myself and my wife Francesca together with our children, Haris & Renos, moved to Liverpool in 1998. Initially I worked at Caesars Palace Restaurant and Akis Greek Taverna as a waiter. My ambition though was to open our own Greek Restaurant. In 1999 myself and Francesca managed to buy the old family restaurant Reno's in York Street, now Christakis Greek Taverna. Renos was originally run by my father in law and mother in law, Renos & Frances Vassiliades. They brought traditional Greek Cypriot recipes and established a proud tradition of quality food and service. Today we carry on this tradition following in their footsteps. During this time we had another son Andreas. After some years of very hard work we have gained a very good reputation in Liverpool and have decided to expand. Our new restaurant here in Smithdown Road, South Liverpool promises to give you excellent food and brilliant service. We buy our meat, fish and vegetables locally and our chefs will prepare you authentic Greek cuisine. Our menu is very varied and you will find halal meals, gluten free meals and gluten free desserts from the famous Dafna's cakes! We hope you will enjoy every visit to Christakis Greek Restaurant. Eat Healthy, Live longer! Eat Greek!!! Regards Christakis, Francesca, Haris, Renos and Andreas. OPENING HOURS Monday - Saturday 4pm - 11.30pm Sunday 1pm - 11pm
