About this business
Phara's is simply a gem in the rough. If you want to try something new or rather different from the usual American cuisine, then Phara's is waiting just for you. An ambiance with a mild touch of the east, this restaurant has comfy seating arrangements. The food here is quite delicious and scrumptious, and one may find it a little spicy. Next comes the shisha/hookahs available, which are attended by the staff regularly to refill the water and change the coal. Moreover, for your entertainment, there are belly-dancers who are s... read more

Arrarat's but better..... – I've had so many gatherings here! Love the Hooka's and the food!! Even better I can invite 10-20 friends and bring enough wine for everyone. Sit outside watching the Belly Dancers and carry on as loud as we want! Amazing time every gathering we have!!
Excellent!!! – I have been reading reviews for restaurants on CitySearch for years, and following our fantastic experience at Phara's last night, I felt compelled to write a review. The food was excellent. The service was attentive and helpful. And the outdoor seating area provided a nice, relaxing, change-of pace setting for enjoying our meal. This place is a huge improvement over Ararat, the restaurant that used to occupy this space. I am really looking forward to returning to Phara's again.
best mediterranian restaurant in austin – we had a fabulous time! My family is mixed greek and turkish so when parents visit it is hard to find places they enjoy that not completely Americanized, yes I know it America but I want to show them nice things here too, so I write this to say;ekkur ederim, Phara (THANK YOU PHARA!) Annem boylece memnun (my mother was so pleased)! I've lived in states for while and i tried former place at this location only for disappointment but seeing a new thing here i thought i must try, it wonde... read more
Worst Mediterranean food, hands down – What an experience. Cold food, bad service, very unfriendly. The employees were also pretty moody, which didn't help. Never eating here again
Better than Delicious!!!!!! – My friend and I had dinner at Phara's on Saturday night, Jan.31 and it was outstanding. If you want a place to go that's different and unique you need to try Phara's. The food was better than delicious is all I can say. Our service was great and the back court yard area is beautiful. I had the Beef Shish Kebab , it was very tender and seasoned perfectly. My friend orderd Salmon and loved it and raved over the spicy sauce. This place would be great to hold your special parties or events. The bell... read more
Cold food, rude employees. – I tried Phara's a couple of times, and I might have been unlucky, but both times visiting was horrible. I was served cold food which took almost an hour. I hope it shapes up so I can enjoy Mediterranean food again. Some of the employees were in bad moods as if they did not want to be there. I try not to come. I hope it gets better.
I'd eat at Phara's every day of the week. – I've been to Phara's several times since it changed owner's. I went one time under previous management and vowed never to go back. Once Phara took over, she completely revamped the restaurant from the kitchen all the way to the patio. What used to be a filthy dive is now ABSOLUTELY DEVINE! The wait staff is so friendly and the food is mouth watering. I've tried several dishes on the menu and I always find a new favorite. I especially love the entertainment. The belly dancers are wo... read more
Great food, Great atmosphere, great friendly place to enjoy friends – The lamb shank is to die for, provided you get there early enough before it sells out. The mezza platter goes great with double apple houka and some cold beers from your own cooler. Phara's hospitable smile is always around to welcome you and make you feel in your own back yard
Unique, fun, excellent food and service! – I had a birthday party here for a group of 15 and Phara and her staff could not have been more accomodating! The food was amazing, we sampled everything. The lamb with haberno garlic sauce melts in your mouth and the hummus is creamy and smooth. Our waiter continually checked on us and made sure we had everything we needed like ice buckets for our white wine and beer. The hookah room was set up with low seating and candles. Our Hookah expert showed us the ropes as we smoked the stra... read more
