    Maybe it was a very bad night. First visit there. Table of 7. Server forgot to place 1 app order, meals took a very long time. 1 meal came out wrong. 1 meal was dropped being plated so took an added 15 minutes to come out as we all ate, and the dessert for a birthday had been frozen and came out 80% frozen. Overall very bad experience. Sever as nice. Place was nice inside. I didn’t like what I ordered personally.

    The Phoenician lived up to its hype. Eight of us attended and there was not one complaint! Everything was delicious! Our waiter was outstanding and very busy. We will be back! The Arabic Platter was outstanding!

    Drinks excellent Shrimp was dry and stuffing did not help. It lacked taste and was dry appetizers were good better than main courses Prime rib looked like the best bet I didn't have it but it was large and prepared well. Value wads good but main courses need work

    For what food they had left to serve it was excellent. No clam chowder. No lamb skewers no chocolate cake but what we had was tremendous. Drinks terrific. Server as efficient and professional as you’re going to find.

    I was a frequent fan of Bishop’s. So I decided to give the Phoenician a try. Not the same,but similar. Prime rib over the top,but the au jus salty. My baked potato was cold. Salad was crisp and cold. My lamb chops a little too done for medium. The French fries were spot on. I am surprised they did not offer baked Kibbeee (sinea), or Toum (garlic sauce). I was surprised it wasn’t busy. But only two servers!! Need more marketing!!
