Nothing good about this place. The hookah is terrible. The cocktails are absolutely tasteless and not drinkable. The service is awful. The place looks bad and has a terrible vibe.

Me and four other gentlemen came here to eat dinner and we ordered the mixed grill for four. It came on a small-sized plate and the food tasted good. It was fresh, tasted good. Their bread was very good as well. I would love if they actually bought us more bread, but we had to continue to wait for bread.
I would say if you're coming as a big group and you want to share the mixed grill, I would order more than what it says it's for because the plate that it comes in is very small and they don't give you that much rice or make a great presentation using the rice and the lettuce and the salad.
The appetizers were good. The hummus. The tomato stuff. And other appetizers were very good.
We sat upstairs and there were some people smoking hookah there, which did not make it very great for eating. I do not like to be around smoke, to be honest. But if you're okay with it, then you're okay with it.
For the owners I'd highly recommend making a better presentation and for larger groups giving them more bread and appetizer to let them continue to eat while they wait on the main course and maybe make the play too much larger because it is made to be shared so people want to see a nice big presentation. If you need to increase the price, increase the price. But a large group who may not be concerned necessarily with the price, they want to be served good food and enough food for everybody.

Literally the best charcoal grilled chicken and lamb chops I’ve ever had in the US! happy to see this amazing restaurant using real wooden charcoal which is not common in the DMV area. The owner and staff were really kind and generous. Thanks Phoenicia!

They need better ventilation system, better chef and cigarette should not be allowed inside.

I had an incredible experience at Phoenicia Restaurant & Lounge! The food was absolutely amazing, every single dish was full of authentic Lebanese flavor. Their kibbe naye was perfectly seasoned and just right to the point. We ordered a variety of Lebanese dishes, and everything was delicious from start to finish.
I went with a group of my friends, and we truly had a blast. The ambiance was warm, lively, and inviting, making it the perfect spot to relax, laugh, and enjoy great company. Their hookah was smooth and flavorful, one of the best I’ve had. The service was friendly and attentive, which made the whole experience even better.
If you love Lebanese food or want to discover it, Phoenicia is definitely the place to go. Highly recommended!
Very disappointed, for the forth time with reservation, we were not getting a table, The manager was sexist, they seat girls without reservations, save your money and go somewhere else.

Very disappointed, bad service, manager is very rude. Unless you are a girl, you will get a very bad treatment. They dont respect their customer, we had a reservation and when they went there, they told us they are full, but they had a table to seat girls without reservation.

Way over-priced for sub par food and atmosphere. Much better options in the area. Server was not attentive at all.
