I come to eat here for lunch every time I'm working in the area. However, the last time I was here…read morewas over a year ago, so I was curious if it was just as good as I had remembered. I'm happy to report that their food is still awesome! Also, their dining atmosphere is really cozy, although very open with plenty of seating. Very nice music, appropriately themed, playing in the background. I was greeted by my hostess at the door immediately, and she was my server as well. Very friendly, happy and checked on me at just the right times. I always go for that Combination Plate, because I just can't steer myself away from it. The Chicken Shwarma and Gyros meat are always tender and flavorful. The Grecian Sauce, aka Tzatziki is amazing! The pita bread is fresh, and the hummus is a nice side along with the feta salad.

My major concern was the kefta kabob which was not served hot and it was rather dry unfortunately . I think I it's because a tour bus had arrived and they were overwhelmed. Otherwise, good service!

We are so happy we found this place. On a Tuesday night, we…read morewere looking for something new and discovered this on the map. To start, we ordered the Spinach pies. They were the perfect size for an appetizer. For my meal, I ordered the Phoenician Pasta. The serving size was large and left enough to take home. The sauce was creamy and the chicken had a great spice to it to give it some great flavor. This is one of those meals I will crave. We never needed anything. The lady serving the table kept me topped up with coca-cola. She brought to go boxes over without asking when we slowed down. Excellent service. The atmosphere was not completely quiet but we could carry on a discussion with no problem. We will be back!

Allow me to re-introduce you to Arzi's. I remember frequenting this chain a long time ago when I…read morewas in college, but it began to lose its luster compared to the other competitors in town (and I've frequented them all). I really can't remember the last time I had Arzi's, but someone posted a picture on social media and I've been salivating over it since. It looks like this is one of three locations (one in Central and one in Zachary) so it seems that Arzi's has essentially pulled out of the Baton Rouge market. I will tell you this--I left so satisfied and would definitely drive back here again (and plan to). This is not like the Arzi's of old--it seems much more authentic. The hummus has a light, whipped texture. It was delicious, though I personally like a little more "zing" (lemon, garlic?) in the flavor. I loved the sesame seeds in the falafel. The grape leaves were packed with dill and mint flavor which is so flavorful in my humble opinion. The moussaka also stood out from others in that it was much less oily and packed with garlic--yum! The salad dressing was light and slightly creamy but not too much. My husband got the day's special, lamb chops, and raved about them. I also appreciated the yellow basmati rice--it had a really unique flavor that we tried to pinpoint--cardamom, coriander? Everything was seasoned perfectly. I felt that what we got was also a great value. The service was superb. If you like Greek/Lebanese, don't sleep on this place!

The flavors are all there for your taste buds to savor. The fried cheese was a little small this time around and didn't have all the yummy garlicky oil/butter it's usually sitting in, but was still just as tasty. But the star dish for my wife and I is that combo shawarma plate!! The Grecian sauce and hummus along w the jasmine rice and meats jut make my mouth water for more. Their Lebanese tea is also the best around. We tried the others around town and were only disappointed after the first bite. No more shopping around for Greek/Lebanese food for us. It's always gonna be Sam's for the win.

Cafe Phoenicia is my go to Greek & Lebanese restaurant in Zachary! I've been coming here for years…read more I like that it's somewhat different than other similar types of restaurants, and that their dishes are consistently good. One of the first differences is that most dishes include a choice of salads. We are all familiar with the Feta Salad, and this is a good choice. However, this place has a Fatoush Salad option, that includes a topping of crispy pita croutons. This is my favorite option! Then we move along to the entrees. Surprisingly, they have a good variety of seafood offerings, which is a reasonable component of Greek cuisine. I like all of these! Then there are a variety of pasta dishes, all with a great Greek flavor. One delightful dish is the Stuffed Plate which includes a variety of stuffed vegetables, along with a salad! There are also great classic options like lamb shanks, shawarma, and gyros. The simple gyro sandwich is always a good option, and priced nicely. That's what I like about Cafe Phoenicia, no matter if you want the simple or the adventurous, they have something to satisfy you.
