Book NowAbout Petra Restaurant
A rare home for soulful Jordanian cooking in Victoria Park, serving fork-tender lamb mansaf and sprawling weekend feast spreads. Patrons come for the hearty hospitality and stay for the banquet-sized barbecue platters piled high with spiced rice and tangy pickles. The kitchen slow-cooks meats until they slide right off the bone, while staff frequently send over warm cups of spiced tea on the house. Dinner winds down best over crisp, syrup-soaked kunafa hot from the oven.

- Weekend Feasts & Generous Platters: Abundant weekend buffets and generous mixed grill platters make room for large family tables and celebrations.

Kunafa
We were fascinated by a dessert called kunafa which is a cheese with dough and sugar syrup and cheese. Buttery, sweet, savoury and crunchy. You must try it!

We began with the hummus, which was smooth and flavorful, served with warm, fresh bread.
