    My favorite coffee shop in Houston! Wonderful atmosphere — lots of indoor and outdoor seating, kid-friendly, kindest staff and owners, delicious food that is very allergen-friendly (whole menu is marked with gluten-free, vegan, vegetarian, nuts labels), and wonderful coffee options! Snacks and gifts galore, too! Can’t say enough great things.

    Vibe- This is a cute spot with good vibes. There’s some seating outside and a good amount inside. There are items (i.e. mugs, books, etc.) for sell. It seems like a good spot to meet up with friends for a bite to eat! Customer service- Great! Food/drinks- I really wanted the vegan cinnamon roll, but they were sold out so I got the heavenly cacao brownie that was alright. I also ordered the matcha chai latte that was very refreshing, it had a minty kind of taste to it. Parking- There’s some behind the building and you can park on the street as well.

    Hmmm... where to begin. Well let's start with their massive patio! That was my favorite part about this coffee shop, and pretty much the main good thing from my experience. The outside area is such a vibe. I visited a few weeks ago for the first time. Masks are required to enter (if you ask at the counter they may have extras). If you use Google navigation to get there, you will have to drive around the block to access their parking lot. Also- they close at 2pm on a weekday (I was caught off guard by this). Additionally, if you sit out front after they close but you parked in their parking lot... you'll have to walk around the block to get to your car. The customer service was okay and unfortunately I did not enjoy the chai latte & breakfast tacos I paid $20 for (quite high for breakfast tacos in my opinion).The breakfast tacos were large but not at all the type of breakfast tacos I was expecting. They were quite salty so I really couldn't eat it- I could only take about two bites.

    My smoothie was $12.99 for a tiny cup and it doesn’t taste good. Most health smoothies don’t have the most pleasant taste, but for $12.99 I expected better.

    I adore this coffee shop. Their coffee is delicious, and so are their pastries and bites. There’s really fun little gifts and cards to purchase in the store. Really cool stocking- stuffer - like gifts and trinkets. I love coming here.

    Christian, the owner, and the lady working the counter are so sweet. He explained his grandfather called him “Christo Mio” as a kid, and has been sober 8years. The irony is this building was a bar before and was completely remodeled into the cafe it is today. Their healthy, clean food and drinks are lovely. We ordered both taco plates, and I ordered the turmeric latte. The tortillas were sooo good. Give it a try.

    Such a great spot! I can’t believe I hadn’t found this place before. There is wifi, plenty of outlets, and comfy indoor + outdoor seating to get work done. I got the kale crunch salad and added falafel - it was SO good. They also have vegan options, smoothies, and sweets. Definitely recommend and will be back.

    I can't say enough nice things about this place! The customer service was superb. Everyone was so friendly! Their house-made milk was amazing in my coffee. And the creme brulee!!! You'll regret not ordering it. Made by the best dessert chef in town! This little gem is a must see in the village! Also there is parking behind the shop on Robinhood if you need :)

    Went here at 9 on a Saturday morning and the weather was perfect to enjoy their beautiful patio. That being said, everything was so expensive, and not good. I got a chocolate croissant that came to me burnt, dry, and has maybe 2 drops of chocolate. I got a honey lavender iced latte and it was so watery and bland. Spent $17 for disappointment. At least the patio was nice.

    I had the honey latte and the coffee tasted great, it was not too sweet and the coffee did not have that burnt taste. I also had the avocado toast which was delicious but I think a little pricey for one slice. This has been one of my favorite spots for avocado toast though! The chocolate croissant was not great, had very little chocolate so I would not get again. I also had the blueberry muffin which was packed with blueberries and very nice and moist, would recommend.

    I and my wife found this place by accident actually. We happened to drive by it one day and thought we would try it for breakfast. The food was very good, and I've since been back several times. I've seen some reviews that complained about the prices; however I didn't feel they were exorbitant. What I really like about Christo Mio's is the fact they don't play loud music or music at all. You can actually here each other talk. There's also plenty of seating outside (which will be nice when the weather cools down) and a parking lot in the back off of Robinhood. There's also plenty of vegetarian options as well as gluten free.

    This is a cute little coffee shop/cafe. Coffee was good and so was the food. They have healthy options while still being tasty. Staff was all friendly. Both indoor and outdoor patio that's dog friendly. Plenty of parking at the rear of the location. Pleanty of seating available. I will say the booths are almost too comfy and you sink in and the table it's almost a bit too high for one. Overall a great place if you're looking for good coffee and food on the healthier side.

    We've been meaning to go here since they opened & finally got around to it. We rapidly learned the error of our ways by not going sooner! The food is great. The service was fast & very polite. The chairs are very comfortable (not something you can always say about cafe chairs). We will be back, often.

    Food was delicious! We had the Poblano & Cheese and the Kale & Mushroom Pupusas. Pupusas tasted amazing but way overpriced for $13. But this is a coffee shop and not a taco truck which I am used to buying pupusas at $2-$3 a piece. We also had matcha drinks which was good, wish I added some kind of syrup to give it a little sweetness but other than that I just used a sweetener that they had.

    First time here for lunch. Love the quiet atmosphere. Large backyard offers plenty of outdoor sitting. Staff is extremely friendly. I had a Caprese BLT. Very fresh ingredients and the portion is large. Will definitely return.
