Yelp.com Review - by Heather O.

4 of 5 stars. Decided to eat here on a whim after walking up and down Alki with a friend and 2 toddlers. Not exactly a place I'd take a toddler to again, but I'd go back again on a date or with other adults. In…

Yelp.com Review - by Robert B.

4 of 5 stars. Phoenecia is a real treat! The best thing to do is act like an insider; don't even bother with the menu and ask Hussein 'what do you recommend?'. He may chat with you for a bit to get a feel for…

Fantastic food, but I won't be back

Whenever I was in the West Seattle area, I used to make a special point of eating at Phoenicia. The food had consistently been delicious, and the service excellent. Middle Eastern dips such as the homemade...

So Good

My husband and I eat out regularly at some great downtown restaurants but we love to come out to West Seattle for Phonecia's great seafood and sauces. The owner is wonderful and we never feel rushed.
