Originally known as Phoebe's Garden Café, the restaurant has a long and colorful history in Syracuse. Local lore claims that the building was originally a brothel, and Phoebe was its madam. In the summer of 2004, Phoebe's experienced a refreshing makeover with a bright new look in the atrium dining room with fresh paint, new upholstery, and artwork. The coffee lounge also opened that year, and it became an instant hit with the surrounding university and business crowd. Those changes also warranted a new name to reflect the updated attitude and ambiance: Phoebe's Restaurant and Coffee Lounge. Classic elements of Phoebe's remain untouched—the French onion soup and enticing crème brulee, for example, but other menu items change seasonally. The Lounge also has its own seating area and free wireless internet capabilities. Phoebe's old world charm is right at home in a revitalized area of the city.

    We had a plus 1 for our party of 4 reservation--the staff totally rolled with it. Our server Jessie kept our water filled and was the perfect level of attentive and discreet. Food was perfect, drinks were lovely, and the overall vibe was lovely.

    My husband and I had the distinct pleasure of dining at the 1833 Kitchen & Bar tonight to celebrate our anniversary. The restaurant is beautiful. The wait staff is excellent. The food was outstanding, from the focaccia bread to the main dishes. The lobster stew was full of lobster meat and was a delicious light curry, full of crunchy stir fried vegetables. The halibut was spicy and perfectly prepared. Our waitress, Aislinn, was delightful. She was so very personable and extremely knowledgeable about the menu, making sure we knew about ingredients that were used so we ordered meal we would enjoy. The ambiance, service and quality of the food make this place a top notch restaurant.
