    A Stronger Future. Dave & Erika, Owners

    Christopher’s Restaurant & Catering has proudly served the Dayton community since 1991. When we became owners in 2019, we were honored to carry forward a business already known for great food, genuine hospitality and strong community relationships.

    Since then, Christopher’s has continued to evolve. Today, our operations are centered at 3425 Valley Street, where we bring people together for our weekly Theme Dinners, Prime Rib Nights, community events and other special gatherings while continuing to provide award-winning full-service catering throughout the Dayton region.

    Our facility is also home to The GEM by Christopher’s, our private event venue featuring two distinct spaces for celebrations and gatherings of all kinds. From intimate showers, birthdays and corporate meetings to weddings, anniversaries, celebrations of life and larger events, The GEM provides a comfortable and welcoming place to bring people together.

    With private parking, ADA accessibility, beer and wine service, flexible event spaces and the same food and hospitality Christopher’s has been known for for more than three decades, we’re proud to continue serving the Miami Valley in new and meaningful ways.

    The location has evolved. The mission has not: great food, genuine hospitality and taking good care of the people we serve.

    Popular Wednesday & Friday Theme Dinners

    Join us at Christopher’s Restaurant & Catering for our popular Wednesday and Friday Theme Dinners — a tradition that brings great food and great people together at 3425 Valley Street.

    Each dinner features a rotating menu of Christopher’s favorites, comforting classics, seasonal specialties and creative dishes from our kitchen. Menus change regularly, so there’s always something different to discover — and plenty of reasons to come back.

    But our Theme Dinners are about more than what’s on the plate. They’re a chance to meet up with friends, bring the family together, catch up with familiar faces and enjoy the sense of community that has always been part of Christopher’s.

    Come hungry, bring some friends and see what we’re cooking next.
