Halal Reviews for Little Petra Cambridge

So pleased for the family of Little Petra and their success! They absolutely deserve all the business they are getting. The food is absolutely amazing...from the meze starters to the varied main courses; all well priced for the location, and everything is beautifully seasoned. Portion sizes are very large so don't overdo it on the starters. I didn't get a chance to try their desserts but I will be back again, so no worries. The only downside was the service wasn't AS attentive as you'd like (we were sat for half an hour before drinks were offered) but this is absolutely understandable and forgivable with how very busy they were and how pleasant the staff are. I am sure this will improve when they're properly in the swing of having a bigger place. 100% recommend! I'll be back again!

Absolutely lovely. The cold Meze shared between two is perfect but don't fill up on the very generous portion of flat bread that comes with it. The mains are not huge but after a Meze are just the right size. We both had stews which were perfect for a chilly day in Cambridge. We didn't bother with dessert but the free baklava at the end of the meal were just right. Loved it there.

We didn’t have any booking and restaurant was fully booked luckily we went early in the evening and they accommodate us asking if we can finish in 70 minutes and we were ok with that. We had mix grill platter which came with rice, salad and completely bread. Everything tasted great unfortunately it wasn’t very hot because we were tight on time we didn’t say anything and ate it. When we mentioned while leaving they gave us some Middle Eastern sweets which was nice. Our overall experience was good.

I had high expectations for this well reviewed, and always busy, restaurant. They were able to deliver on those expectations and I really enjoyed my lunch there. The platter was generous enough to leave me satisfied and had a nice variety of great tasting dishes. Would go back. Worth booking ahead.

We've lived in Cambridge for 2 years now, and Little Petra is still the best place we've eaten at. If you're visiting Cambridge, make a point of going. If you live in Cambridge, make it your regular place to go. Staff are all really helpful; the chefs & front of house clearly love what they do and the food they make. The waiting staff are polite and super attentive. We said ahead of time we were bringing our 4 week old asleep in the pram, and they made space for us to sit comfortably together with the pram. The food is the star of the show; just exceptional. Everything is fresh and clearly made from scratch, from the delicious meats, through to halloumi and Falafels (a true highlight) right down to their sauces and pickled veg. There are always people around, and the new location gives lots of light & the ability to see out onto the street; it give the place a lovely atmosphere. We love it, you should too.
