- My first time at Petra this past weekend and I can't wait to go back. The red lentil soup was fantastic. I had the Taste of Africa and the flavors were fabulous. The service was great, too.
One of THE BEST restaurants in town! Fantastic food-mosabaha-excellent,falafel-\m/,lentil soup-excellent,veggie sheesh kabob-excellent,baklawa-crazy good! Pricey indulgence. (4 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more- Christina HarleyFebruary 26, 2014Greek salad was fantastic! Garlic lemon chicken is super garlicky so not good date food but still good food. I recommend asking for the sauce on the side so you can adjust the garlic.Upvoted Sep 27
Connie LuOctober 3, 2013Order the Mezza Tray because all the mediterranean apps are great. Entrees are super flavorful too! Go on Saturdays at 7:30pm and be treated to live belly dancing!
Abhishek MNovember 3, 2012Great food - we loved the pita bread (oh so soft) and hummus. Salad/falafel is great. red lentil soup and veg sheesh kabob not so much.. Definitely visiting again.
Richard SpragueDecember 27, 2014Shish Tawook (lemon garlic chicken) spices are heavenly, but the chicken can be a little dry: ask them not to overcook it.
Alex PopescuJanuary 31, 2015Kafta kebabs were perfect. The baklava is to die for,best I've tasted in Seattle.
Bob CrimminsFebruary 13, 2011Cauliflower rocks. Greek salad is amazing. Everything was actually damn good. Service was a slow and awkward though.
JamieJuly 8, 2013Service was polite, but slow and inattentive. Bring a water bottle because the food is nice and garlicky but they don't come around and refill your water much. Next time I'll get my food to go.
Kadence EnglehardtJune 3, 2010Go to Petra Mediterranean Bistro: Try the Petra Wings or Fries. Get the Shish Tawook. It's divine.
M. BerkDecember 11, 2010That fried cauliflower thing is AMAZING, as is damn near everything on the menu :)
Tom WyliehartFebruary 12, 2012Simplify your life, just order the hummus royale with lamb and the ouzi with lamb
James HallFebruary 26, 2011For the true experience, have the Taste of Africa with any of the lentil soups they offer
Vincent FilbyAugust 13, 2014Avoid the falafel at all costs... Unless mushy bread balls painted brown and left to get soggy are your thing.

"If you haven't tried it. Start off with a small YUMM! Bowl. It's really good! Add chicken or tofu! And you have a great lunch! Still new so expect a little wait. But no complaints from me! 👍👍👍"
