Karellas is a little place with 6 or 7 tables in Greektown and I came in at 5:30 on a Thursday and sat right down. I had the small Greek salad for $8 and the in house pork gyro for $13 which comes with fries. Both were absolutely delicious. The gyro was so good I wanted to lick the foil. I almost didn't come because I wasn't sure I wanted a pork gyro but I read that it was fabulous and indeed it was. I will definitely be back for more!

I saw the owner helping clients and they even remembered me from weeks ago! This place is special in this community, beyond the great food and low prices. It's a heart of this place.

The pumpkin spice latte was refreshing (and made in roughly 30 seconds flat, insane I know). The Dubai chocolate was delicious and the staff even offered to heat it for me. I mean look at it. Yes it did taste that good. They're still improving it as we they go along, but the array of pastries, drinks, and other items already makes a hidden community gem. I'll definitely come back here again. You should too! Especially with the prices. That cookie and that latte was 12 bucks by the way. No they don't force tips.

Their menu has tons of specialty and seasonal drinks! We tried the Cookie Butter Latte and the Baklava Latte, both were absolutely delicious. We also got a nice blueberry pastry. The owners greeted us warmly, and the space itself is charming. The inside features a beautiful mural and has such a welcoming, cozy vibe. It's the perfect local neighborhood spot! We're so happy to have Agora in the neighborhood and highly recommend giving this lovely new café a try!

So you know I had to oblige and suggested that we try Estiatorio Plaka in Greektown. I always love venturing over to Greektown for some really good Greek food. And if you like Greek wine, their wine list is really extensive. Every wine on their list is carefully chosen from Greek regions to complement our menu, highlight its unique character, and bring an authentic taste of Greece to your table. We pretty much went straight to dinner we both wanted fish this particular evening. I had the LAVRAKI (BRANZINO) which was grilled with capers and oregano and my date wanted the snapper (LITHRINI (RED SNAPPER) , he loves snapper. Both dishes come with a choice of two sides which you can swap out. I chose the horta(field greens) and rice, my date chose the broccolini and roasted potatoes. To be honest the broccolini and roasted potatoes are your best bet. The horta was a tad bland for my liking and really need some seasoning. The rice was ok. For dessert we shared the baklava cheesecake. Soooo good. Baklava is my fave Greek dessert. They also have a nice cocktail and wine list. I plan on returning because they have a really nice happy hour with $1 oysters, $12 fish tacos and $7 espresso martini's, so that alone I am sold on. The decor in here is absolutely stunning, and they also have a really nice bakery to grab some desserts to take home if you like. So if you are in the Highlandtown neighborhood, make sure you stop in, you will not be disappointed SYOY

The restaurant week menu had excellent options, and we chose prosciutto wrapped melon over mozzarella and Italian eggroll as appetizers; for entrees, we chose the eggplant rollatini, and the chicken dish. Can I just say, the rose cream sauce is out of this world. I am looking forward to visiting again, and as much as I will be returning for the food, I will also be returning because of the superior service.

She got the Bruschetta Pizza 10", was really excited for it because the menu photo had a ton of tomatoes. When we opened it up we saw a pizza with a small fraction of tomatoes compared to what was advertised. I was even excited to try something new. Very disappointed and let down by what we got. No sauce so it relied on the tomatoes, and without them it wasn't good. Sad part is, if it had the depicted amount of tomatoes, it probably would have been a really good pizza.

This place was a one-and-done experience for us. Never again!!…read more My husband and I ended up here after the Dave Chappelle show because our original dinner plans fell through when the restaurant was fully booked. We should have made reservations, but at that point, all we wanted was a decent meal (nothing fancy) after a long workweek and then to head home. Unfortunately, a decent meal didn't happen. The food was some of the worst we've had in a long time. My husband actually spit food into his napkin, shook his head, and said, "I'm done." I've never seen him do that before. Several dishes were simply inedible. The mashed potatoes were bland and flavorless--how do you mess up mashed potatoes? The potato salad was equally bland and disappointing. The French onion soup had very little broth and was overloaded with a thick layer of hardened cheese. Overall, the food tasted cheap and poorly prepared, yet the prices suggested otherwise. It felt like diner-quality food being sold at premium prices. What made the experience even more frustrating was the manager's response. He came to our table after hearing about our concerns, but instead of focusing on the quality issues we raised, he seemed more concerned that my husband refused to order a replacement meal. That spoke volumes about where the priorities were. The one bright spot was our server, who was attentive, friendly, and professional throughout the meal. No complaints regarding the server as he was extremely apologetic with our experience. To our surprise, the restaurant also added an automatic gratuity to our bill. Ironically, had that not been done, we likely would have tipped our server more because he was not the problem. The kitchen and management were. No, I didn't complain about the tip after I noticed it on our bill. We were over the experience and just wanted to pay and get the hell out of there. Save yourself the disappointment and spend your hard earned money elsewhere. We certainly wish we had. Gordon Ramsay, if you're looking for a future Kitchen Nightmares episode, this place could desperately use the help. P.S. A business name change is not going to help with the quality of the food. Do better and prove that you actually care about your customers, not just the $$.

They have a wide selection of flavors and toppings as well as assorted other desserts and pastries. They have four sizes ranging from child to jumbo.

Since the snowball stand in canton crossing closed and is turning into a Rita's this appears to be the closest location to Canton to get snowballs. It is easy to get to from 95 north; take the Eastern Avenue exit, turn right to head east, stay in the left lane, and do the first U-turn you can. It will be on your right hand side as you head west on Eastern Avenue just before the 95 interchange.
