    Stopped by for lunch. First time here. Sooooo good!! Like everything. It was chilly inside so maybe bring a sweater. I got the chicken Petra sandwich. It was very good. It came with French fries that were cooked perfectly. It also came with garlic dip. I dipped my French fries and sandwich in the garlic dip. Amazing. My husbands combo plate was really good as well. He finished everything and it was so much food. We will be back. The service was nice and attentive. I got Turkish coffee and added some sugar. Drank it all!

    Combo Kabob to go

    I was looking for a new place to try and found Cafe Petra. I placed an order to go on their website and this place is quite the hidden gem. It was easy to order. pick up was smooth and best of all everything was done to perfection. When i walked it it was like a cafe you could smell the spices which smelled delicious, I was greeted quickly and told my order was almost ready. The lady was so sweet and delivered the food to my car since i had people in the car. The service was great the food was tender delicious and hot the spot. This is a place you need to try if you are in the katy area.

    Gyro Sandwich Sandwich

    Wow! The food was so good. The sandwich meals are unbeatable. We loved the salads to start. The feta/garlic dressing was perfect. The hummus and pita with the sandwiches also fantastic. The gyro sandwich and the Petra sandwich were both great. Service was top tier. Very friendly and attentive staff! Great overall place. This will definitely become a staple.

    Small place but great flavor. Everything was delicious and they were happy to make suggestions. The place was clean and the food was fresh and fast. A great choice. The Petra super for 2 was enough food for 4.

    What a great find! We loved this place. Food is very tasty and fresh. Folks here are very nice. Only draw back was the sun in the evenings shines in to the front. Don't sit near the window or face the window. My chicken was slightly over cooked - but everything else was amazing!

    Combo Plate, Gryo, Chicken and Salad

    Best Lebanese food that I've had in years! I'm so happy that Cafe Petra opened near my home. Having dined here four times now I'm convinced this is the real deal. Located in a strip mall at the corner of Firethorne and FM1463, this small restaurant has a lot to offer. The restaurant itself has a simple decor with instrumental music playing and a few tv's playing videos of scenes of Middle East. It's quite enough so you can talk and be heard. The menu offers a variety of meats, seafood and vegetables so that you can try different dishes if you that sort. Me? I love the combo platter with chicken, gyro meat and a small green salad. Tho once my son and I shared a platter for two. The portions are enough that we always have something to bring home too. Try the Lebanese Tea. Something like an Arnold Palmer, only better!

    When I'm craving Mediterranean food, Fadi's is always one of my go-to spots. There are several…read morelocations around Houston, but I especially like this Katy Freeway location because it offers weekday specials that provide excellent value. Monday through Friday from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., they offer a lunch special with one kebab and two sides for $17. They also have a happy hour Monday through Thursday from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. with one kebab and two sides for $15, which is a great deal. The kebab options typically include chicken, beef, lamb, or shrimp. To my knowledge, the other Fadi's locations do not offer these specials. On my most recent visit, I stopped by for happy hour. While the kebabs aren't necessarily my favorite item on the menu, it's hard to beat a meal with one kebab and two sides for $15. I chose the pomegranate eggplant, fried cauliflower, and their "Mama Ganoush," a roasted eggplant dip similar to baba ganoush. Everything was fresh and flavorful. Each meal also comes with a warm pita bread that is served fresh from the oven. The ordering process is simple: grab a tray, move down the line, and choose from the foods on display before paying at the register. The staff are always friendly, and there's plenty of seating inside. If you're looking for fresh, authentic Mediterranean food in the Katy area, Fadi's is an easy recommendation.

    It's a big disappointment. The quality went down. One of…read morethe spread tasted so off. I think it's spoiled? The beef with potatoes is served cold/below room temperature? The biggest turn off was the pita bread. The last time I came was 1+ year ago and the pita breads were to die for. I'm not sure if they had lowered the quality since then. Very sad. Fadi was my favorite Mediterranean chain in Houston.

    4.5 Stars Came here…read moreafter work on a Thursday evening. The restaurant was decently busy (about half the tables were filled) but I still felt taken care of. I was in line to order to-go but the lady in front of me had the hardest time paying for her order. After several unsuccessful attempts, another lady came by to take my order so that she could put my order to the kitchen first while I waited to pay. I found that to be extremely considerate of the worker to think to do that. Food came out in about 15 minutes. I was so hungry I ended up deciding to eat in my car. A little disappointed that they didn't include any utensils (nor did they ask if needed any), but thankfully I had some extras in my car. I ordered a chicken kebab and they were nice enough to sub my rice for a salad without extra charge. Also ordered the borani bademjan because I'm a fan of all things eggplant. Everything was delicious. The chicken kebab was juicy, moist, and nicely seasoned. However, my favorite item was hands down the borani bademjan. It had large pieces of smoky grilled eggplants and I love the spiced tomato flavors. Yum! Highly recommend for all eggplant fanatics. The borani came with a piece of nan that was good as well. Overall a great find and will be back to try other items.

    First off let me say the food is 10/10 amazing. The service is bad and I'm scared to write it as…read morepeople may shy away from trying this restaurant out but hopefully management will make some changes. I had the challow kabab with naan and my friend had the chapli kabab with rice. Both dishes were SO tasty and I'd recommend both. The naan is not buttery or oily so it was perfect with the most delicious and perfectly marinated meats. The chutney/vinegar sauce is always so refreshing and pairs so well with everything. I want this place to succeed because the food is just SO delicious however, it saddens me that the waiter was so terrible. He was dressed in torn up jeans and was on his phone as if it was glued to his face. I had no idea he was the waiter until I saw him go in the kitchen and I had to flag him down like hi can we order?! When he came to take our order he was the most meh person ever. He just stared out at the window as he stood there waiting for us to place our order. He didn't offer water or drinks until I called him back to ask like...can I at least have some water please? Then he yells from the counter, do you want room temperature or cold? Ugh I love this restaurants food but it saddens me to think that this waiter is going to be the downfall of this place. At one point he was loudly watching tik tok videos (to the point where I couldn't hear my friend talking to me from across the table). The other tables were also visibly annoyed with his lackluster energy and effort and one family was willing to leave because of his meh attitude. Saffron--please let go of this waiter. You're just too good of a restaurant and I hope you continue to succeed!! I just think with this waiter around, you could lose business like you did today.
