Cafe Stelios in Merrillville on Broadway was an awesome experience. It feels family owned, and that…read morewarmth really comes through the second you walk in. The atmosphere was comfortable and inviting, and I loved that they took the time to decorate so nicely for the holiday. The inside was done really well and made the whole place feel even more welcoming. The service was undeniably great. The girl handling the coffee told me "my pleasure" when I asked for a half cup on my refill, which stuck with me because it was such a small but genuine touch. Our waitress was also very easygoing and pleasant, and she made the meal that much better. The coffee was spectacular, and the food was outstanding. The waffle was absolutely magical. Everything about this visit made me want to come back, and I already can't wait to try lunch next time. Definitely a spot worth checking out.

Yelp never leads me wrong - this little cafe was close to my hotel and has great photos and…read morereviews. I enjoyed reading their story online - family owned, and named in honor of their family. Many reviews rave about the friendly owners. I ordered an espresso hazelnut latte, it was perfect and served with a little cookie. I had the Avocado Toast - it was great, light and refreshing. If I could critique it slightly I'd ask for a thicker cream cheese smear and more onion, I'd personally also add some feta cheese. The ingredients were fresh, the eggs were the perfect temp and it was a delightful meal overall. Service was fantastic! My server was prompt, friendly and attentive.

I highly recommend this restaurant.

We went around 530, and the place was busy. It got super busy as dinner time rolled around. We sat at the bar and the greeted by the bartender. We ordered two drinks and two entrees to share. I had the Reyka and the Shrimp Étouffée (featured special). My husband ordered the Bedarra Old Fashioned and the Southern Fried Chicken. Our drinks were phenomenal. The presentation of mine was not what I expected. Loved the aesthetics! The Shrimp Étouffée was not one of our favorites. Shrimp was cooked to perfection but the rice and sauce ok, it was bland. The southern fried chicken was really good. It was flavorful and juicy. Definitely coming back when our daughter plays out there again. Nice place to grab a drink and a quick bite.

They offered carrot cake, piña colada, and mixed berry. I'm not usually a carrot cake or piña colada person, but I was impressed by the creativity. The mixed berry was my favorite!
