We love this place! The menu is not extensive but what they serve is the best! Ever so fresh salad! All fresh ingredients! Grilled octopus is to die for! Just so you know I’ve eaten at Greek restaurants in New York, Philadelphia, St. Augustine and Romania! I can compare with knowledge! This is definitely a 5 start visit!

This Restaurant by far the best Greek food we’ve ever eaten,we’ll from ny good old Greek neighborhood from Astoria Queens,which have their share of great Greek restaurants,but I have to say Karella’s has it beat,here in baltimore!The cheese balls were nice and gooey cheese goodness.The pork and chicken souvlaki,pilaf rice greek salad perfect!Fabulous, but the grilled octopus was amazing took the lead,
We indulged lastly with a very fine cup of Greek coffee,nicely made.
Took home an order of cheese balls..had to.
And also couldn’t leave without having one of karella’s desert rice pudding,which is also home made and it was very nice.
This will be our go to place!Don’t let this place pass you by,highly,highly recommended.
And shout out to Nick our very courteous server,And Dad for being a great chef!See you soon.
Thank you!One Great experience. 10

This was our first time at Karellas in Greektown. We came for a late lunch around 3:00 and everything was delicious. We will definitely be back. Strongly recommend the octopus and Greek coffee.

Fantastic Greek restaurant that can rival any other in Highlandtowne. Friendly and helpful service. The menu is a bit limited compared to other place but the quality and taste of what they do have makes up for it. Also, as usual with most places in Greektown, space is limited but that’s expected for me. Definitely recommend stopping in for a bite. The cheeseballs were delicious!

This is a small family run restaurant and is a true hidden gem!
I was blown by the quality of the food
The grilled octopus appetizer was my favorite!
Don’t miss this place the next time you are in East Baltimore!

We were greated with love. The hosted was so wonderful and very informative. We ordered the octopus, mix meats and fries. The octopus was fixed to perfection and the mixed meats were very savory. I see why they have a 4.8. Enjoy!

JUST AMAZING!!! Some of the best Greek food I’ve had! Little cute spot in Greektown. I LOVED their octopus and dessert! Food was very fresh and tasty, people working here are very welcoming and super nice. Make sure you bring cash, they only accept cash.

TLDR: Unbelievable Greek food in a cozy cafe off the beaten path. Come for the amazing octopus, souvlaki and baklava.
Vibe: 5/5. Tucked away on a narrow side street in Greektown, Karella’s is a small restaurant that offers 2-4 person dining both indoors and out. Inside, the restaurant has a hand full of 2 top tables (can be pushed together for a 4 person group) making this a perfect date night spot. Outside there is 1 large 4 top that could squeeze up to 6 people if needed. When you walk inside, the sounds of Greek folk music paired with the Mediterranean decor are nice touches that add to the ambiance. The small kitchen is located at the rear of the restaurant which can be seen from the dining room. Karella’s is setup as a counter service cafe, with a display case and beverage cooler at the main counter in the rear, but during our dinner we ordered/served at our table.
Service: 5/5. The staff at Karella’s was fantastic from start to finish. Days before our dinner, I reached out to the cafe to see if they still had outside dining, as we were bringing a dog and wanted to make sure we wouldn’t have any issues. They assured me they could accommodate us and would have the outside table ready before we arrived. When we arrived for dinner, they were so kind to allow us to sit inside with the doggo since he was small and well behaved. As mentioned above, Karella’s is setup as a counter service style restaurant, but on our visit we were serviced table side by what appeared to be the owner (only front of house staff present). He was very personable and did a fantastic job in explaining the menu and checking in on us throughout the meal. Beverages were kept full and when it was time to settle on the bill, it was a breeze making sure our Venmo went through (cash or Venmo only).
Food: 5/5. Our group of 4 thoroughly enjoyed every dish we had at Karella’s. We typically eat family style at restaurants, so we opted to try the cheese balls, crazy feta dip w/ pita, the octopus, the beef and pork gyro souvlaki platters (includes Greek salad and fries) and baklava for dessert. Again, everything was fantastic but the main winners of the night were the perfectly cooked octopus and the pork gyro souvlaki. The octopus was crispy on the outside, unbelievably tender on the inside and simply seasoned with lemon, olive oil and fresh herbs. The pork gyro souvlaki also had a nice crispy outside and perfectly tender on the inside. Paired with the homemade tzatziki sauce on pita, it was a match made in heaven. The homemade Greek cheese balls were also tasty. The owner told us that they are made with a blend of Gouda and several other cheeses to give it a nice nuttiness as well as gooey consistency. To round out a great meal, we had a fine example of baklava. Overall, we loved every aspect of our dinner at Karella’s and will definitely look forward to dining with them again!
