6 months agoIt's a very nice restaurant, however that's all. Ordered the hummus and cucumber salad, which was $25.00 total. Food decent, but honestly, they gave me pita bread still in the grocery packaging. By the looks of the restaurant, I just expected more.

9 months agoWe LOVE Phoenicia!! My dear Armenian friends have introduced to this place and we've been several times since that introduction. Our varsity basketball program holds their banquets there and what a fabulous meal..one of my very favorites. I couldn't even tell you which dish is my fav. Absolutely elegant with attentive service. I highly recommend.

11 months agoAbsolutely amazing food, no questions about it. The service was friendly and fast. It could be the coldest day, and you would still not be cold. The restaurant has so many heaters all over the place. The appetizers are enough portions to be shared with 4 to 5 people on the table. Food was so delicious, perfectly seasoned on every dish. The restaurant usually has live music on the Friday and Saturday nights. Inside seating is always available, and you can smoke hookah as well. Whenever we have gone, there was no need to call to rsvp. table has always been available.

a month agoHorrible old food . Shawarma meat both beef and chicken were old and microwaved. Horrible service too. Save your money or make sure to ask if food is fresh before ordering. They recharge you 18% tip and is no wonder they don't care.
