This is a cute little Mediterranean cafe located in Alki Beach (West Seattle). You cant really beat the views of the water. Reservations are recommended because it can be quite full on a Friday night. We had reservations at 7:30 pm and they seated us within 5-10 minutes. We had to wait for a table to clear so that they could seat us. My friend wanted me to try their fig & pancetta pizza. So we ordered 2 of them. Her boyfriend also joined us for dinner so he had a whole pizza to himself. We also ordered the scallops which were perfectly seared with a sweet glaze. Only two scallops arrived but that was the perfect amount since one of our party didnt eat fish. The 39 spice beef was tasty but I could only detect 5-spice, not 39. A little disappointed by the beef but it was still good. The saffron chicken was amazing though. So saucy and delicious. We had quite a bit of food and a bottle of wine to share. This place is a great find and during this time of year, the sunset at 9:45pm is kind of amazing. The service was great once the food started arriving, it never really stopped. The fig & pancetta pizza was a delicious blend of sweet and salty. Nice find!

Hope nobody else has our experience... My friend and I arrived at a busy time and sat outside. We got menus right away but waited to have our orders taken. I knew the food was yummy as I had been there before. After we ordered, our appetizers were delivered with no silverware and no napkins or drinks. Twenty minutes later our silverware was delivered along with our main courses. About this time three unsupervised kids were parked at the end of our bench and they proceeded to throw chairs and jump on the table etc. After 45 minutes someone appeared to give us water and refresh our drinks. It was another 20 minutes until we received our bill. then it was another ten minutes for the bill to be collected and they brought us a Bananas Foster dessert gratis because of the service and said they were sorry they forgot about us. I really love their food but cannot in good conscience return. Our total time there was one and a half hours.

On Alki Beach, there are an absolute ton of forgettable eateries, but Phoenicia is definitely not one of them. The first time we went, we ended up kicking ourselves for not going sooner. The food is nothing less than outstanding (dont leave without trying a pizza) and the family working every night makes you feel like youre at their home for dinner. Any time we want a nice meal in a great atmosphere, this is at the very top of the list.

Fantastic food and wine... not to mention the beautiful view of Alki Beach. Go at sunset! Kids are allowed here, but I wouldnt necessarily think theyd love it here. More of an adult atmosphere. Would be a great place for a date or small dinner celebration. A pizza can feed one person easy. I like to order a pizza per person, a salad and one or two other small plates.

Went here on a first date. They closed at 10 but didnt say a word when my date and I were still gazing into others eyes at 10:30- totally unaware! They just politely turned off the kitchen lights... Needless to say, we enjoyed ourselves! ! (: o now thats 5 star service! The food and wine was great also.

Yum. Delicious, well prepared food, excellent variety and quality ingredients. Staff welcoming and attentive. Staff also knowledgeable regarding menu items and wine list and very helpful with suggestions. Would certainly recommend to friends and will go there again! Again, very delicious food!

Ohhhhh man, this place is good. Definitely the best pizza you have never tried or probably even though about. The Squash pizza is AMAZING!!! Great view, good wine selection, and have never had bad service. One of my favorite places! Also the trio of spreads is to make the drive for...

We love the place but have issues with the size of some of the sides. For the price you are charging give more green beans etc. We usually leave hungry unless we order alot and each get our own pizza. This is cost prohibitive to most people. The food however is incredible.

This is a classy restaurant by the water on Alki Beach. The atmosphere is pretty cool, the decor is nice, and the staff was attentive and friendly. The food was excellent, but their allergen awareness/understanding and gluten free selection could use some improvement. B)

The food was great but the service was something left to be desired. During our dining experience our server didnt check on us aside from bringing the check and got snippy when we informed her that the bill was going to be split. Not sure if Ill ever dine here again.

Beautiful views, great atmosphere (just under being too loud to hear across the table), and the tapas and pizzas were amazing. While the rest of the table got dessert, I ordered a second Fig Pizza. Service was very friendly.

meh I doubt Ill be back. They rave about their pizza on the menu, but its fair at best (soft & chewy, too much crust, not much flavor, sauce tasted overcooked or old). The ambiance left much to be desired as well.

Complex flavors, unusual parings, every dish was unique and well rendered, presentation was average, views were spectator, service was engaging, charming, knowledgeable, and efficient. Will definitely return.

Best spicy prawns in the city. 39 spice beef is outta this world. The pizza is slammin! The portobello is fantastic. We always wrap things up with some Turkish coffee and take time to enjoy the view.

Pretty good, got the margarita pizza. Came pretty quick despite being crowded. I have had better pizza, but not for this good of a price

Mediocre mediteranea food, my wife loves it but I am never impressed, so it is a matter of taste rather it being objectivity bad.

One of the best date spots in Seattle! Save room for their bananas foster and a pot of Turkish coffee. Highly recommended.

Food was great, but somehow they were out of pepperoni while they serve a dozen or more different pizzas on the menu?

This is the place to eat on Alki if you like your food to have some flavor. My favorite dish is the saffron chicken.

Try the 39 spice beef here. I order it every time I come here for salsa on alki. Super delicious.
