Great selection of food and ingredients you can't find elsewhere. Top quality meats and a variety of other items. The cafe is also great and those pastries are delicious

The best selection of foods from around the world. Fresh bakery and meat and chicken and prepared foods. Super wine department with the best selection from countries that Spec's doesn't carry. A premium cigar area. OMG, a definite destination.

Fantastic deli and market with a strong Mediterranean/Middle Eastern focus. Lots of traditional dishes and meals. Friendly and helpful staff. Mind the entrance and exit door! 😄 They’re Armenian style, different from US convention.

Last Saturday, I went to Phoenicia Specialty Foods at Westheimer Houston, TX to pick up some olives from the deli. But as soon as I walked into the store, I was immediately overwhelmed by all that it had to offer.
The fruits and vegetables section was overflowing with fresh produce from all over the world. I saw exotic fruits like mangosteen, rambutan, and dragon fruit, as well as familiar favorites like apples, oranges, and bananas. The vegetables section was just as impressive, with a wide variety of leafy greens, root vegetables, and herbs.
I also took a walk through the butcher shop, where I saw a variety of fresh meats, including beef, lamb, chicken, and seafood. The butchers were happy to answer my questions and help me choose the perfect cut of meat for my needs.
Next, I headed to the deli, where I found a wide selection of prepared foods, including hummus, baba ghanoush, tabouli, falafel, and shawarma. I was also excited to see that the deli had a variety of olives, which is what I had originally come to the store to buy.
After picking up my olives, I decided to browse the rest of the store. I found a section with a variety of international foods, including spices, sauces, and snacks. I was especially interested in the section with Middle Eastern foods, as I am a big fan of the cuisine.
I ended up spending a lot of time at Phoenicia Specialty Foods, and I could have easily spent more time exploring all that it has to offer. I was impressed by the variety of fresh produce, meats, and prepared foods available. I was also excited to find a wide selection of international foods, including many items that I cannot find at my local grocery store.
I highly recommend Phoenicia Specialty Foods to anyone looking for a unique and exciting shopping experience. Whether you are looking for fresh produce, high-quality meats, prepared foods, or international ingredients, you are sure to find what you need at Phoenicia.

Phoenicia is the best (and often only) place to ship for delicacies from around the world. They always have an amazing selection of product, great customer service and good prices. I have been shopping here for over 15 years, and keep sending people who haven't discovered it yet.

Such a great selection. Very happy to have found this place. Very Big place and the bread is delicious! It definitely is pricey but if your looking for the imported stuff you miss you may definitely find it here. Alot of stuff is worth the price.

Best place for mediterranean/Middle Eastern food. I found some of the best beef steak meat here. There a lot of choices for bread. They have a big bakery section too. All halal food.

Man, Houston's got some amazing grocery stores and Phoenicia is by far the top 2 for specialty grocers. Everything is fresh, including their baked goods, breads, meats, and delis. I love the aromatics as soon as you walk through the door. Come hungry!
