Great place with unique and eclectic menu. The bay bun appetizers are good but could use a little kiss of hoisin and acid… otherwise delicious. The mixed plate is a hit with all of the meats with a different treatment of spice and herbs… outstanding. Yanok is an awesome host and we felt comfortable and welcomed in his restaurant. I highly recommend this hidden jewel!

Best steak sandwich I've ever had, no big deal. The owner is a gem and knows what he's doin theree. Every time I'm close by and hungry at the same time they're the ones that get my business

What a delicious night! From the drinks to appetizers to our main course, everything was really delicious! The trio appetizers were outstanding and the lemon pork skewers were out of this world. The serving staff couldn’t have been nicer. We also got to meet the owner who was extremely inviting & shared what dishes we should try on our next visit. Can’t wait! This is a must go to restaurant.

Unassuming spot in Rolling Meadows that packs a big punch. I walked in and was immediately impressed. The restaurant is tastefully decorated and has a feel of modernism and sophistication. Additionally, the owner and staff are welcoming and professional. The cuisine is a combo of Latin/Mediterranean fusion. We sampled the baked Maduro (plantain) as an appetizer and followed up with the whitefish as an entree, which was delicious. A true gem in the dining scene of Rolling Meadows.

Interesting latin/mediterranean/Asian fusion? Everything we ate tasted amazing, fresh and quality ingredients and the chef came out to see what we thought and thanked us for coming in. The pork bao and the hangover soup were so good.

Fantastic. Best Palomas in the state. The bao bao appetizer and the 3 steak sandwich are fantastic. Great fries. All 4 of us loved what we got. We will definitely come back. Reasonably-priced and wait staff Seth is very professional. Owner Yanko is very nice. Can't say enough good things about this place.
Just had a wonderful meal with friends. Food was absolutely awesome. The Phoenix Flame sandwich was absolutely delicious. Appetizer of plantain chips with avocado salsa was out of this world. Wonderful server, very helpful. Restaurant is very nice and definitely coming back for dinner

Would highly recommend Phoenix Flame! It was our first time there and it definitely will not be the last. Each of our four dinners were absolutely delicious. Our server was knowledgeable and friendly and we even got to meet the owner who was very passionate. Check it out! You will be amazed!

Spectacular food and ambiance. It’s a top notch place for quality of food. Not only plates are designed with details served on wood trays but they also use crafted herbs, sauces. Everything is made from scratch. Yes, they whip some deserts in the front of you.Dietary restrictions: Can be gluten free.
This place is amazing! We had the octopus and bao appetizers--both were great. Then, we all shared the sampler meal, the spicy pork, and the steak and fries. All of the entrees were flavorful and unique--so good! We also got a pitcher of the strawberry mojito, which was beautiful and tasty.The service was phenomenal. Everyone inside of the restaurant was friendly and helpful.The restaurant itself is beautiful and clean. Definitely an impressive place to bring family and friends!Dietary restrictions: I have a severe nut allergy, and they were very accommodating! It caused no issues and they made sure I was safe.
