The baked potato was the best thing I had which shouldn't be the case, especially considering I didn't get it with any meat. I got the pulled pork sandwich, ribs, mac and cheese and a baked potato. The pulled pork sandwich is my go to and it wasn't high on the list of my bbq places. I love mac and cheese and wouldnt consider myself super picky but it wasn't all that great either. I think I may have ate one rib so I wasnt all that impressed with them either. As stated, the baked potato was good. I didn't try any of the chocolates cause I am not a fan of just chocolate balls so I can't comment on that. Unfortunately, I doubt I go back.

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.

Brought my BFF here to indulge in some international chocolate because I knew his ass would. Pretty…read moresure he dropped nearly $100, but I wasn't counting. I asked to try one of the chocolates he bought--the Blueberry Chocolate. I picked up the rest for my BF and me. Chocolate Bar "Black" - I passed this out at the local theater where I volunteer, and everyone loved it. Dark chocolate is so in right now. What I liked most was that the texture wasn't dry, yet it still had a strong, pleasantly bitter flavor. I assumed it was around 60-70% cacao, and after looking it up, it's actually 62-63%. It's definitely sweeter than the dark chocolates I normally eat, but still very enjoyable. At $10, it was a great way to share chocolate with 26 people. That said, I'd rather spend the extra $13 on their Nama Chocolate and give everyone an unforgettable experience. Royce's Origin Chocolate "Bitter" - This will be hard to review because I'm definitely not a chocolate connoisseur. --Ecuador - Reminds me of a bitter coffee bean. Very fragrant, though I wouldn't describe it as floral, despite the tasting notes claiming floral characteristics--unless we're talking about something peppery. This one was my BF's favorite. --Venezuela - Much milkier than the previous flavor. Lighter and more subtle, almost like drinking coffee and then finally getting hit with the milk foam. I 100% agree with the nutty tasting notes--it gives off strong hazelnut energy. This one was my favorite. --Madagascar - Much sharper in flavor. My BF described it as "fruity," and while I had a harder time deciphering it, I agree that it was noticeably tangier than the others. It also ranked the highest in acidity for me. I don't necessarily taste fruit, but that tang does lean toward a citrus-like quality. It tasted like the outer wilds, for sure. --Colombia - Mmm. My BF suggested caramel or cinnamon notes, but I'm picking up a flavor I recognize and just can't place... nutmeg. It reminds me of nutmeg. What an interesting shift from the bright, tangy profile of the Madagascar chocolate. Blueberry Chocolate - One of my peers described it as "potent," and I completely agree. It's a tiny little bead of chocolate, yet it packs a powerful punch. I believe it's a layered milk chocolate with a blueberry center. It was phenomenal, and I'd absolutely come back for another. Of their many flavors, I'd love to come back and try the Potato Chip Chocolate because, frankly, that's weird as heck... and y'girl loves weird.

So pretty bummed... went to this location, but my family usually goes to the University Blvd…read morelocation. The strawberry and carrot cake looked exceptionally dry, so I went for the Aunt Etta (usually my favorite). It also looked a little dry but chocolate can be deceiving. Wish I would have gone with my gut and gotten the cheesecake instead. Grabbed the confetti cake slice as a gift for someone, they said it was dense but pretty good! Service was poor mainly because there was just 1 lady working for the 7 people in line. It took about 30 minutes to be spoken to, then was able to place our order and get the slices about 15 mins later. Overall, probably just a bad day for the bakers and workers but would recommend driving the extra 3 miles and going to a different Winfield's. Usually superb service and flavor/taste of cakes.

But the cake... The cakes were a little bit, pricey, and they sure looked good, but I expected to be happy with the quality of the cake at the very best. Turns out I was amazed! I got a very large slice, as are all of the slices... of the wedding cake! Wow! My wife and I will be celebrating 30 years of marriage next year and I think this is where we are going to get our celebration cake! Expensive but worth every penny. Really good coffee as well. If you are in Houston and near this restaurant, I highly recommend that you give it a try.

They roast some under their own brand, Phoenicia dark roast, ground some beans and they're great. Bought a bag roasted in Tomball called Cafe Copan, a medium roast that was very good as well. Grandkids got some goodies too, butter cookies. The conveyor belt that comes out of the overhead wall the pita breads come out of wasn't moving, hope it's not broken. That's a mesmerizing sight to see fresh pitas descending and all puffed up. We grabbed a few frozen food items for our use.

This is an amazing flagship store- super clean and nice and the staff were great…read more I actually ended up enjoying the gelato than the actual chocolate. I was a little let down by the taste I'm not going to lie. The look of the chocolates were so beautiful and they even had cool ones for sale by the entrance but I haven't tried it yet so can't speak to the taste. They had samples to try of the chocolate strawberries and those were super pricey otherwise I would've definitely bought a box. That was delicious. I'd come back to try other items. Seems like you could take the gelato and have it made into a milkshake which sounded delicious. All in all a good experience, loved everything minus the mini painted truffles.

Her price point is on average, with inflation things are subject to change, but as of May 2025, it was $45 for a dozen cupcakes or $36 for 18 mini cupcake cupcakes.
