    Food was good, they give you plenty!! Opted for the Sharma combo. Lots of tender meat. Unfortunately the meat and rice were a bit too salty for me. Other than that it was good. The restaurant was clean and the staff was friendly and the service was good.

    Chicken Gyro

    Came here for lunch and the first thing I noticed was how open and spacious the place feels. You order at the counter, grab a number, and they'll bring the food right to your table. I got the chicken gyro wrap and it was packed! they load it up with fries inside, which honestly makes it super filling in the best way. Their self serve fry sauce station is a nice touch too, and adding that sauce to the wrap made it even better. For dessert I tried the chocolate baklava, and it ended up being one of my favorite parts of the meal. It was surprisingly light, flaky, and just sweet enough without being heavy. Overall, the food came out quickly, tasted fresh, and this spot works great for a casual lunch where you want something satisfying without a long wait. The only downside was a small but pretty noticeable issue: when I ordered a regular baklava to go, the cashier used tongs to grab it, but when it wasn't sitting right in the box, she flipped it over with her bare hand. It definitely threw me off because it felt a bit unsanitary, especially happening right in front of customers. I didn't say anything in the moment, but I really wish they'd just stick to tongs the whole way through. Besides that, the place is solid. I'd come back, just hoping for slightly better handling on the desserts.

    Sunday after work we were craving their Gyro's they are so very yummy! We get the combo they come with a drink and a lot of fries! We have tried other restaurants that have Gyro's but we just love they way they make theirs so much! We drive out of town for them. Can't wait to go back. If we lived closer it would be very hard not to go more often.

    Avgolemono Soup
    Kayla S.

    I absolutely love Petra Greek. While the prices are on the higher side, the quality and portion sizes make it well worth it. I easily had enough food for multiple meals. I ordered the Gyro Plate with Tzatziki sauce, the Avgolemono soup, and a side of fry sauce. The Avgolemono soup, though $9 for a small cup, was hearty, flavorful, and came with warm pita bread. The Gyro Plate featured a generous portion of tender beef and lamb gyro meat with rice pilaf and salad. I chose all salad, because I love their fresh cucumbers and tomatoes. The dish also came with pita and Tzatziki sauce, though I like to pair the gyro meat with their delicious fry sauce. Overall, Petra Greek delivers consistently great food, generous portions, and authentic flavor. Highly recommend.

    Chicken Souvlaki Plate

    I had dinner here recently while in town visiting family. I had the Chicken Souvlaki Plate I had the Chicken Souvlaki Plate: Fresh cut chicken, skewered and seasoned with Greek spices, cooked over open flame, with french fries, Greek salad, tzatziki sauce and pita bread. The portions were huge and I could not eat it all. The chicken was really tasty, easy to cut. The salad and fries were super yummy too. The tzatziki was pretty garlicy but overall tasty. Pita was not too heavy. Overall a nice restaurant. Big portions, tasty food.

    I've eaten at Petra twice in the last 24 hours. As an American who visited Greece last year and has been disappointed with Greek food in the United States every since, this place seems to be the real deal. I'll definitely return!

    Beef & Lamb Gyro Pita with rice pilaf
    Carrie K.

    I love this popular Greek eatery located in the Palladio near theaters. Generous delicious portions made to order and served up quick by hospitable servers! I love the Chicken souvlaki pita but any dish has proven to be done well. Also love the tasty rice pilaf. Always plenty of tables inside or outside and kept clean. Bring an appetite for the large portions. Also love that they have Coke products

The portion was minimal--barely enough to cover the bottom of a standard to-go container--and it was noticeably lacking lettuce. They also used green olives, which felt a bit off from what I'd expect. The salad came with small portions of hummus and tzatziki, but no pita or anything to pair them with, which I found odd--are people just eating those with a fork? We also ordered a chicken shawarma, and ironically, the lettuce I was hoping to see more of in the salad ended up in that instead--wilted from the heat of the chicken. This was my second visit. The first time, I ordered online and was hit with a bunch of extra fees since it's routed through DoorDash--even for pickup. Staff mentioned that I should avoid ordering that way in the future to save money, which raises the question: if you know the system you're using adds unnecessary costs, why not offer a better alternative? Taking their advice, I came in person the second time. Service was fine, but overall, the food still just didn't stand out. I'll continue to spend my money at Zest just down the road.

It's in a small plaza next to a pawn shop and a Mexican spot, and while the restaurant is on the smaller side, all the window signs make it easy to find.

The man who greeted me didn't talk much, but it was a fast and simple pickup. When the order came out, everything was already packed up and ready to go. I peeked inside the bag before leaving and was excited to see a full chicken platter with rice, salad, hummus, and tzatziki. They also included a chicken gyro on a super soft pita with lots of chicken chunks and fresh veggies and herbs. The food was delicious even after a twenty minute drive home. The tzatziki tasted really fresh, the rice was fluffy and seasoned well, and the chicken had great flavor. There was plenty of food for me, my husband, and our four year old to share. I noticed they offer catering too, and I would definitely consider them for a future gathering. Really impressed and looking forward to coming back to try more.

Server did offer to let us choose 2 different meats for our two #41 Koobideh plates (2 beef skewers for $25), but I think we would have been better off just ordering one #61 All Koobideh plate (3 different meat skewers for $34). One plate has plenty of basmati rice for two people to share. She suggested the two #41 orders, instead of answering how much an extra order of rice would cost. Maybe you can't order a side of rice? Rice comes with each entree. By ordering the 2nd plate, she offered or included the $8 Bread Basket for no extra charge. It was my friend's birthday. I wanted to pay, and she wanted to order extra to go, so I wanted two separate bills, but it seemed too complicated to explain or disallowed. After the food was delivered to the table, server didn't check on us anymore. I guess the restaurant doesn't do anything special for birthdays. My friend thought all the koobideh tasted the same. I liked them in this order: 1) Lamb, 2) Chicken, and 3) Beef, but they're the same texture, so they aren't all that different. I should have ordered a different 2nd entree, instead of two Koobideh plates. The #18 Bademjan Borani eggplant appetizer was yummy. It did come with some bread, so you don't have to order the bread basket. The bread is served warm. The basmati rice was light and fluffy, but not flavorful or buttery. You can pay a $4 upgrade to switch the rice to salad or a fancier stir fried rice. Read the Vegetarian Dishes menu section to learn about the various fried rice or polo preparations. Our server suggested the Fava Bean Rice or Baghali Polo because it is a Persian New Year dish. Yelp reviewers recommended the Zereshk Polo, which includes barberries, a fruit similar to currants. $10 to add a skewer of veggies. $4 to add a salad is mentioned under the Vegetarian Dishes menu and Seafood & Combination Plates menu. I didn't like how the sugar cubes for the Persian Tea were served. It looked communal and exposed to the elements. You could see sugar dust on the serving bowl. Other Persian restaurants serve the sugar in a smaller covered bowl. Formal dining room. Lunch specials are Monday to Friday, 11 am to 3 pm, excluding holidays. Lunch prices range from $16-$20. 3 different $8 soup offerings: chicken barley, ashe reshteh, or green lentil.

My food was truly awful and tasted nothing like the Chicken Shawarma at the other 5 locations I've been to. This version of the wrap had hardly any meat which BYW did not taste anything like Falfel Corner Chicken Shawarma. Instead of being packed with delicious chicken and onions, this wrap had spinach filler mixed in with the chicken and everything was completely drenched in a nasty sauce that absolutely was not tahini or tzatziki. It almost tasted fishy and looked slightly pink. It was totally gross. I ate a few bites and threw that nasty sandwich in my compost. I would have asked for my money back if I was eating onsite. But unfortunately I took this nasty wrap to go and didn't know what I was in for until I got home. One thing is for sure, I will never return to this Falafel Corner location ever again.
