Love Phoebe's! I bring a client here for lunch whenever she visits and we love the salads, soups, and quiche! I also had my baby shower here and the food was amazing, the service was excellent, and the space is beautiful.

I booked my daughter's bridal shower at Phoebe's June 5th 2016. It was in the Atrium. They worked with me on decor, menu, beverages, and all the little things you don't think of. The food was excellent, which is often not the case with buffets I've had other places. There was an ample amount and they packed up leftovers. Anything I requested (a plate for cookies brought, etc) was taken care of immediately and pleasantly. When I requested that my elderly mother in law be directed to the buffet right after the bride & her bridesmaids, they went the extra mile and escorted her there and back, carrying her plate so that i could stay & prepare my plate. The whole experience made the shower memorable for all the right reasons! The Atrium is a beautiful spot for a shower or party. Thank yo again!

Phoebe’s is warm and cozy with a great view. The interior is inviting with lush green plants and red brick walls. The servers are friendly and attentive. The Sandwich was dry and the fries were on the salty side. This was the best hot chocolate I’ve had in Syracuse.

We had our company Holiday party at Phoebe’s last night and it was wonderful. The venue was beautiful and perfectly decorated for the Holidays. The wait staff were so friendly and accommodating, we never lacked for anything. The food was delicious and we were able to custom make a menus for our group very easily that accommodated our vegetarian and vegan staff too. Highly recommend Phoebes for your group outings! Thank you!

In Syracuse and it's my birthday! Lived here for 14 yrs and I never went to Phoebe's. Service was some of the best I've had ever. No long pauses between drinks soup appetizers and entree. No rush to leave either! I ordered the soup of the day which was New England clam chowder and it was outstanding. Lots of clams, my husband ordered the sweet potato soup and being the meat and potato man that he is he surprisingly loved it. We also had the duck wonton for appetizers the sauce was sweet and spicy and very good. My husband and son had the special of quail. Though they said it was very good, generally an entree of quail contains 2 quail as they are small. It was well cooked. I had the autumn shrimp and I chose the smaller plate. I've never had fall spiced shrimp seasoned with nutmeg, all spice & cinnamon. Little different than I am accustomed to but I knew it would be! I ate all the shrimp but not all the vanilla jasmine rice. Definitely would go again next time in Syracuse.

I went here for coffee and stayed for the food. To my surprise l, Alice knew how to make the elusive Cortado and it was excellent. Ciarra also provided excellent service. The special of Chicken/Broccoli Alfredo was a great choice. The size was a little small even for lunch, but had perfectly al dente and colorful broccoli, pasta was cooked nicely too. Not overly salted with a smooth and creamy sauce. Looking forward to being in town again to try more menu items.

This is such a cute and cozy place for a nice lunch. The architecture in this building is spectacular with such beautiful old details. The hubby was flying out to South Carolina for business so we decided to enjoy a lunch date with some drinks before he had to leave for the week. Phoebe's was the perfect choice. We started with the flat bread, the citrus goat cheese on this was amazing. I do think this needed a hot honey drizzle or a white balsamic drizzle to break up the richness of this dish but that's just an opinion it was still delicious. For drinks I got an espresso martini and the he got a spicy margarita they were both okay drinks but nothing spectacular. For lunch we got the quiche and the daily special of short ribs over penne pasta. The quiche was cooked perfectly so velvety and creamy. The short rib was nice and fork tender. The sauce on the pasta was a little thick and sperated but still had good flavor. For desert we got the creme brulee and flourless chocolate cake. The chocolate cake was kinda dry and the apricot sauce had no flavor so we definitely enjoyed the creme brulee more. In all a good meal and a hubby full of delicious food for his flight. I look forward to returning and trying out dinner one day.

We hosted the Syracuse University event at this location great food, great service, and I highly recommend the apple tart, all dishes were prepared well and loaded with flavor. Food was so good. I didn’t get to get too many pictures, but I did get a quick snap of this Alfredo, which was also very delicious.

It’s a nice place, but their veggie burger is not the best I’ve had. No crispy elements, spicy but limited umami, boring roll. The sweet potato fries were great though. If you want veggie, probably go for their curry instead - at least I will try that next time.

Yum yum yum! So glad we got the seasonal brie, and the seasonal risotto dish was absolutely amazing as well. Server Becca W was lovely, as all of the servers always are!

Great menu, nice bar and restaurant area, coffee bar, friendly and efficient service. Nice beer and wine selection. We enjoyed apps and entrees. Whole and half entrees is a nice option.

Update, went with a large group of 11 people and had a very nice time. Food continues to be wonderful, the staff is kind, helpful and attentive and it's really nice inside. I'm going to add a short commentary at the very bottom if you're interested in the large group payment process, otherwise you can just read about the awesome stuff from previous visits as well... My wife and I have always enjoyed Phoebe's. Every time we have gone it's been such a pleasurable experience. Smooth, pleasant and quick service with really good to great food. Our most recent visit we had poutine, pork, duck, and berry tart. The holy cow that was fantastic awards goes to the poutine and tart, absolute must try options. The duck was cooked to perfection and my wife was thinking it may be one of the best she's ever had. The pork was very good, it had some wonderful juicy bites and also some dry ones though. Pork is my go to order and I've had better for sure, but that's not to be mistaken for how delicious it still was. We will continue to come back and enjoy it more in the future, I encourage you to do the same. Enjoy!! First off, Phoebe's makes it clear what their policy and process is for this. Some responsibility is with us as the patrons. Groups larger than 8 will get 18% gratuity added, cool I actually think that's great. Taking care of large groups deserves that and as noted our server was wonderful. Unfortunately, they will not split the check. As you may imagine, not splitting the check creates fun for everyone, math ensues, labeling of credit cards and how much on each, adding it up, who did the math wrong and so on, and then we hand our disaster of a system over to our server and I don't know how it works for them but it took awhile and I felt terrible that we weren't prepared with another method to make it easier on them, or they as a policy for whatever reason, can't, or don't split the checks to begin with to save customers and staff alike the headache. An added 18% gratuity on split checks is the same number as one giant check, without the mess, thankfully math is a hero in that regard. As the patron, cash might be easier but if you're like myself, cash on hand is more of a rarity in my life as time goes on. If someone has a nice credit limit on their card and everyone does Venmo or a money exchange of that nature, you may be better off using those methods and you would save yourself and their staff the headache as well.

Lovely cafe & restaurant in Syracuse with welcoming staff and good service. I had a delicious French onion soup to start. For the entree I had the salmon dish and asked for medium and to be served with double vegetables instead. The dish was ok, I didn't really enjoy the flavor of the salsa verde and the fish was cooked well done. However, the plate presentation was really pretty and they did comp a bit off the price since I only ate a few bites. I was still hungry so I ordered the spinach salad, it was tasty. I also ordered a dirty chai with a shot of espresso and I'm fairly certain they forgot the shot because it wasn't on my bill. Overall, a pretty good meal with a few hiccups but I'd definitely give them another try when I'm in the area.

We dropped in yesterday for lunch before leaving town. Ordered the turkey club and French onion soup with iced tea. The food was really good. The turkey club was one of the best I've ever had, everything was perfect. And I've had plenty. The French onion soup was decadent and very good. Even the iced tea was great, quite strong but not too bitter. All around great value, and the place is just gorgeous with the skylights and decor.

Nice, quiet place with great service and savory American food. Loved the chicken and french onion soup. Wife loved their burger and soup special (red pepper curry). Place really checks all the boxes for us.
