Phoenicia Specialty Foods

Pure heaven! Food from all over the world. They let you try before You buy. The raspberry mojitos were the best. We had octopus salad , pesto pecan chicken salad , and black bean mango salad . Yummy!

FREE parking in One Park Place garage on McKinney. Also, be adventurous and try different specialty NA beverages from all over the globe: ginger beer , kola, kombucha + spicy mango juice to name a few.

The perfect neighborhood market with delicious and wonderfully exotic imported groceries , with a cozy bar for mingling with friends. The perfect quick downtown lunch spot .

I love shopping at Phoenicia. The list of items I like to buy there is much too long. If you like cooking Mediterranean style then this place is for you. The gyros and shawarmas are great as well .

Amazing place with foods from all over the world! This is the place we go grocery shopping! Great Mediterranean food and Asian food and European food! You must also try the delicious shawarma !!

There should be one of these in every city ! The only thing that could make it better is if it were the ground floor of my hotel . Live jazz every Sunday from 12:00-15:00!!

Skip the bar and go inside the grocery store and order food from there. The shawarma was great, and so were the lamb shank and chicken entrées . Love the atmosphere as well !

They have everything here! Love all of the food bars , and variety of products from all around the world. All tasty and fresh

The Chicken Salad is delicious! Prices are good if you have a long stay at the convention center . 28,000 sq. ft. specialty grocery store with everything you can imagine!

The many smells and the superb customer service finally if your new to Houston you must experience this place. Based on our experience to day we'll becoming regularss.

Great place to see and enjoy food from all over the world. With a bar you can enjoy a glass of wine or beer . I can't suggest the baby octopus salad ...yes they had that also. I passed on it. LOL!

I love that place!! everything was really good!! and you can buy all the stuff that you need to cook health food!!

Try the 4 cheese Mediterranean pizza ! Plus there's always a delicious variety of desserts to chose from.

Fantastic! Everything you could need! And great coffee bar :)

Start with some hummus and pita chips , then finish off with the half a chicken . Wonderfully cooked and worth a repeat visit!

upstairs selection includes wine (uzbeki, Georgian, Lebanese , and typical regions), cigars , hookahs , kitchen accessories , and more specialty foods!

Great selection of produce including freshly baked bread . Also, they have a good amount of local beers

The downtown location is more geared towards ready to eat food and catering than the Westheimer location , which has a much bigger selection

Love their salad bar (must try the Armenian string cheese ) and freshly baked pizza ! Not to mention the variety of desserts .

Huge variety of ethnic foods. There's always something going on for HH, dinner specials or activities. The Armenian cheese is a MUST taste.

The store had a large variety of foods. I tried some grape leaves that were awesome. I was a little disappointed that they had no organic produce whatsoever.

One of the only places in town that sell vegan baked goods . Worth going just to look around

I had their calamari salad and their octopus salad and their armenian stuffed grape leaves . Beautiful.

Armenian string cheese , muhamarra & lebneh - staples. Super yum!

Arabic items ; cheese , halal meat & whatever u want nevertheless I have no idea about the prices;)

The first place in town where I could find puff pastry in big sheets! ????????????awesome!

Supermarket is pricey but the diner is reasonable and yummy.

Good place to eat if your doing a show at the GRBCC and don't want fast food .

Salad bar and hot bar is awesome!

Chelsea has a great personality and the jazz bad at Brunch is cool too!

Try the lamb shwarma , beet salad , and end with fresh baklava and Turkish coffee

Try the Feta Flatbread With Shrimp And Pesto - Customized from different areas of the deli...so delicious!!

They carry the most eclectic selections of wines in Houston.

This place is pretty awesome and very exotic . Great food finds. and really good hummus .

Had the $12 steak special. It was ok but the best thing I loved was the waiter picked out good wine for me!!

So cool. Pita machine is two stories. Lots of hard to find items.

Phoenicia will be sampling foods at the 2012 Houston Web Awards at the House of Dereon! Be sure to get your tickets here! <aclass="entity url"rel="nofollow" href="http://bit.ly/JwX1o4"target="_blank" data-sig="YcHHenBHi4z914VpWPQqBSoM+dg=" onmousedown="fourSq.ui.OutgoingLink.mousedown($(this), event)" data-source="tip-text">http://bit.ly/JwX1o4</a>

Don't forget to check out Sunday brunch at MKT BAR downstairs from 11-3. Pomegranate mimosas !

The Lamb Shawarma with spicy sauce is delicious.

The chicken curry salad , tabouli salad , and shawarma

Armenian string cheese is a must try

Best place to grab a quick lunch . Fresh food and amazing prices!

Once in Houston, don't miss this place! Phoenicia is quite an experience by itself!

More customizable than the Westheimer location but no free pita chips !

The wine section upstairs is worth a visit.

If you're in need of a good picnic snack or dinner/lunch party treat ... this is your place!

Best grocery store in Houston! The pita !

Everything there is awesome!

No numbering system or queue at the extraordinarily tall deli counter so don't be surprised if you get cut or ignored.

Everything that I have had is excellent!
