Customer Reviews
Phlight has a rating of 4.6 out of 5 based on over 493 reviews on Google
I give the service and the atmosphere higher rating than the food. The presentation of each item was great, but I will say I was disappointed overall with the taste. The octopus (which is one of my favorites) was probably the least enjoyable I’ve ever had. It was pretty chewy, as was the macaroni in the macaroni in cheese. To add, the empanada was flavorful, but a touch too hearty and feel it would’ve been better paired with a lighter verde type sauce than the red one. The one dish I was pleasantly surprised with was the snap peas which was absolutely delightful!
Hands down one of the best restaurants I’ve ever been to. The food is unreal! We got the wrapped dates, corn, vegan taco, mac and cheese, the Phlight burger, and the crème brûlée. I can’t even decide which is my favorite since everything was so delicious. Highly recommend!!! You absolutely must try this place. It is more of a communal ordering situation so everyone can try each dish.
Love this restaurant!!! Food is amazing and so is the service! The owner, Nikomi, always checks in to make sure everything is going well. We had a party of 9 and they were efficient and happy to explain any of their dishes. Our favorites were the patatas bravas, the empanadas, the bacon wrapped dates, their burger, Brussels sprouts and their chocolate soufflé is to die for! Highly recommend! The place is small so come early or be prepared to wait a little. Thanks Phlight for a great birthday dinner! We’ll be back!
This restaurant was amazing! The flavors were incredible—definitely a comfort food haven with a menu that makes it hard to choose just one thing. One must-try item is the bacon-wrapped date. These bite-sized treats are perfect to pop in your mouth and let melt on your tongue. The sweet, rich flavor is unforgettable. Another standout is the pork belly taco. The soft tortilla pairs perfectly with the crispy pork belly—the textures complement each other beautifully. The meat is tender and cooked to perfection. I highly recommend this place if you’re looking to explore a variety of bold and delicious flavors
EVERY single dish we had was amazing! My son can't wait to go back! Warm and intimate setting with the best service! Smiles all around! And a nod to the chef!
The food is fantastic! My GF and I have been here on several occasions, and each time it wows. It's tapas style and there are a lot of wonderful items to choose from. We started with the white sangria. It's crisp, fruity and has a nice acidic kick to it. It's not overly sweet. Our first menu item was the goat cheese and arugula salad. It has toasted pumpkin seeds and strawberries with a vinaigrette dressing. It's a great mix of sweet and savory with some different textures as well. Our second course was the Brussels sprouts. I don't know how they make these taste so good, but they're delicious. Crispy leaves with tender full sprouts with a wonderful sauce. Next up was the Mac and cheese with Spanish chorizo (a much harder chorizo than the more crumbly Mexican style). This was very flavorful but not too rich. A lot of "fancy" Mac and cheese entrees tend to be overly rich. This was just perfect. Lastly, we split the burger. It was rich and meaty served on an airy bun. It comes with a balsamic vinegar reduction that really contrasts the meat well. We were too full to get dessert (a rarity for me). Our server was friendly and helpful. The food arrived hot and quickly. If you like tapas, or flavorful food in general, I would highly recommend Phlight.
The chile relleno needed more flavor. I think covering it with the walnut sauce would have improved the taste. The patatas were excellent! Excellent service and ambiance during dinner. I enjoyed the music selection.
