We were seated immediately and our server was attentive and friendly. We had the amazing meatballs as an appetizer, and the sauce was phenomenal-tangy and sweet. I ordered the Carnegie Burger and it was amazing! The gochujang sauce complemented the perfectly cooked meat. A truly fantastic burger. The chocolate milkshake was also rich and tasty. I also ordered the chocolate cake and have to say it's famous for a reason, the layers were rich and decadent and a great way to end a meal!

Looking for a solid deli that isn't over run and has a variety of seating options? I've got an…read moreanswer for you... Ploughman's Deli and Cafe. I ordered the "Roll the Hard Six," and it was fantastic -- tender roast beef, honey mustard, plenty of crunchy goodness, and a sauce that kept me coming back for another bite. The bread tasted fresh, the service was friendly, and the pasta salad on the side was amazing. Definitely a spot worth visiting if you're looking for a satisfying sandwich and welcoming atmosphere.

I went to Phoenicia Specialty foods for the first time ever and realized I have wasted the last 8…read moreyears since I moved to Houston having never been here before, because wow! I mean my pocket book is probably better for it because I want to buy the whole store but honestly I've been missing out. The place is cute and welcoming from the corner sign on the building to the moment you step in- bright, inviting, great displays so you know where to go. You can't get lost in here with the signage, but you can't definitely get lost in the aisles with all the great, unique choices. The ready food display has so many Mediterranean treats, some I've had before some I've never heard of and everything I tried was amazing. We got the cabbage rolls and Armenian veggie dolmas. Great flavor, both specific items I haven't had before. Nice citrus, spiced flavor to these. I'd say they're have to try items. Not only found jarred tomato paste, which I've been on the hunt for but they had choices in this category and that's another first for me. Will have to go back and try the others. Also got the cured Serrano ham -amazing. And I thought the prices were going to be insane having a spot right in the middle of the city and nope- pleasantly surprised for my goodies, great prices even less than some of the other stores I frequent in the suburbs. I'll be back again and again and again until I try the whole store lol. Definitely give them a try, you won't regret it

My niece and I checked out Phoenicia's for lunch, which was surprisingly delicious…read more My niece has simplistic tastes, so she opted for the chicken burger, which I tried of course. Perfectly seasoned, crispy exterior. The sweet potato fries were equally delicious. I got the Hill Country salad. Same tender but crispy chicken on a bed of greens with berries. So good. Definitely bookmarked as a return option.

I got here often with my roommate and always have a great time mix and matching any 6 beers into a 6-pack deal. The fatty brisket and sausage is amazing. I love that they offer a variety of menu items now as well. Steak nights, wine nights, and brunch options show how much effort they put in. I wouldn't say the bbq is the best I've ever had in Houston .... BUT still deserves a 5 star review in my book.

Family-owned…read morefor 13 years and from Maine, one can tell Holly and her parents take a lot of pride in their menu. I ordered clam basket ($14.99) and crab cake ($6). Perfectly prepared, big portions. The clam basket comes with fries but I opted for med Mac n cheese. You can order full belly clams or strips which I got. The breading is light which lets the clams shine. The crab cake had a unique-to-me take (Maine) and I loved it! Full of lump and claw meats - not a bunch of fillers. The decor is a nod to Maine. The menu offers subs, several Lobster roll options (I spied my neighbors and they look legit) chowder, bisque, even salt water taffy. If you're in the Katy/West Side of Houston, definitely give it a try.

I also got the chopped flounder/halibut salad (I forget which), which was packed with flavor but I wish there was more lettuce on the plate since the fish salad was too salty to eat on its own and I had to throw it away.
