Best Casual Restaurants in Greektown

We went for my birthday last night and it was fabulous. My daughters, ages 4 and 8, love the charcuterie, and did great splitting a Caesar salad and a pasta dish. My husband and I split a steak, and with dessert, it was the perfect meal. 

We enjoy everything about dining at Plaka. Beautiful, serene environment, attentive but, not intrusive servers, great food, take home portions, incredible bakery on and on. We are hooked and go as often as possible.

I was very impressed by the spin they put on the traditional brunch items. Loved the menu overall. Waitress was just wonderful and knowledgeable. The dessert menu was right out of my “Great British Baking Show” dreams. Oysters were delicious. We will be going back there wasn’t enough time or room in my stomach to try everything I wanted.

Lovely evening, delicious food, overpriced (like all Atlas restaurants), but that was something we knew ahead of time! We were willing to spurge. BUT the live musician (a guy with his acoustic guitar) was truly terrible. Too loud, to start with, but worse, he could not sing!! His guitar work was quite competent and if he’d left it there, we could hav Randle’s the volume. But his voice is unpleasant and he managed to make every song (blues, rock, jazz, etc) sound exactly the same. It was painful to hear some favorites distorted. We were relieved when he took a break and they put on perfectly pleasant recorded background music at a reasonable volume.

First time at this establishment and was very pleased. Small restaurant with a nice vibe and friendly staff. For those that care the music selection was on point, a jazzy club vibe. Wait staff was very attentive, drinks were good and the food was plentiful and good. I would definitely go again to see if my first time was a fluke or if this is really a hidden gem.
