Petra Mediterranean Bistro

First time I went to eat there … I was welcomed by the server and i we sat immediately, he was very attentive. The food was good 4 out of 5 stars.

Great Mediterranean decor sets the mood. Cozy atmosphere. We walked in off the street, less than 10 minutes waiting. We ordered Beef Swarma ( a combination of seasoned beef and vegetables), prawns both served on a bed of rice, with a choice of salad or lentils. We selected lentils... great choice delicious and seasoned to perfection. Wine and a glass of beer. The food was seasoned well and delicious. The portions were reasonable, filling without feeling we ate heavy meals. The service was great. Paid roughly $65 for two meals, drinks, and a tip.

Nice place for a Mediterranean meal. I got the beef kabob plate. The beef was a bit dry for my taste but it was tasty. It came with a red bean soup or salad. I liked the salad. My wife got the salmon kabob plate and she really liked it. The decor is quite nice with the hanging lamps standing out.

Okayish spot for decent Mediterranean food. We tried the mezza platter it was okay. Lentil soup was below average. Service was good.

Spice!! First bite to last. What a blast of flavors and balancing act of deliciousness! This last day of our vacation we “stopped by!!” I don’t regret a second of that decision.

Came in at 8pm Thursday without a reservation - there was no wait. All the food was delicious: falafel plate, Royal with chicken, Ouzi with beef and lamb, and the red lentil soup that is included with the entries; Porter beer. Baklava sample plate for 1-2 people was enough for the two people who shared. The picture is after closing time.

The food and service is very good. We ordered Falafel Entree, Garlic Lemon Chicken Entree. Both the dishes are topped with Tahini sauce which is so good.

The soup taste is so good with lentils, vegetables and spices.
The Falafel is crispy and tasty.
The Garlic Lemon Chicken is tangy in flavour and tasty.

I chose this restaurant based upon their vegetarian options, and I had an amazing meal. Plenty of open tables on a Tuesday at 6:30pm, and I was seated within a few minutes. My server took my order and the first dishes were served within 5 minutes, super fast.
I'm familiar with dolmathes but never tried them before, so took the opportunity to do so here. They were good, but didn't have a ton of flavor - most of the flavor came from the sauce and garnish. The salad accompanying my entree was served with the appetizer, and it was leaf lettuce and other dark greens, no iceberg, with a light viniagrette. The main course I ordered was Vegetarian Shawarma, and it took a while to come out but was super hot and fresh when it did and looked amazing. It also tasted fantastic, and was exactly the type of dish I was looking for. Rice was great texture, the mixed variety of veggies was cooked perfectly, and tahini sauce added excellent flavor. I tried a specialty beverage, 'coconut lemonade' but it just tasted like watered down soda fountain lemonade and I didn't get any coconut flavor from it.
My dinner was fantastic and the service was great. I highly recommend eating here!
