This restaurant and chocolate lounge – a unique concept – is Phil's home away from home." I want you to feel comfortable and enjoy the experience of being here as much as you will enjoy your appetizers, entrees, desserts and beverages. Come in, sit down, relax and let us entertain you – with a great meal, a convivial atmosphere, and affordable prices."

Phil's menus have been inspired by many cooking styles and regions during his more than 35 years as a chef, and they all show up at one time or another. The menus change daily, with selections based on what’s fresh, in season, and available. You’ll see dishes that reflect French and Italian influences, Cajun and Creole influences, Deep South influences, Asian influences and, of course, Northern Michigan influences, among others, all prepared to showcase the quality ingredients that go into them and let their flavor and freshness shine through.

You will also see many variations on chocolate as soon as you walk in the door – after all, Phil's is also a chocolate lounge! From intriguing warm and cold chocolate drinks from the bar to a display case of tempting handmade confectionery from his other venture, Chocolate Exotica, as well as several decadent chocolate desserts.

We look forward to welcoming you at Phil’s on Front very soon!
