Petra Cafe is known for its consistently good Greek food, especially the lamb souvlaki and gyros. Customers praise the fresh ingredients and fast service. The small indoor seating area and occasional cleanliness issues are drawbacks.

Opinions de Petra Cafe Orinda
Impressive. Noticeably fresh tastes and textures reflect the high-quality ingredients used. The lamb souvlaki was grilled to order, the thinly-cut French fries perfectly fried and finished off with some black pepper.

You go here for the food and it's consistently good. The people are nice. It's really an over the counter experience and almost no seating inside. Outside seating is ok but limited.
Years of wonderful meals. Great food, very fair prices, not fancy, but funky. Only a couple of tables which just adds to the fun of eating there or take-away. Food is always fresh and be sure to get extra tzatziki. It's Greek/Mediterranean cuisine so always filling but never heavy.
Food was great service was good especially the boy at the cashier named rsndy he knows what he’s doing.
The restaurant is very has amazing and great tasting food. The room itself is rather small, but the taste makes up for that completely. Also, there is seating outdoors where you can sit if it is nice outside. The service is very fast, so there is very little time spent waiting for the food, even thought it is fresh.
Stopped in before seeing a movie next door and had no idea what we were in for! We each got a Lamb Souvlaki sandwich, and let me tell you -- mouth wateringly good. The lamb was perfectly cooked! Pink in the middle, so juicy and tender as can be. The flavors were perfect and the tomato/lettuce were fresh. Wish I'd taken a picture!
Quality service at its best! Nothing artificial. Nothing fake. Two wonderful ladies offering us nutritious food topped with their sincerity and love for cooking. I am adding 5 hearts to the 5 stars for their effort to share their best ♡♡♡♡♡
Great food, fast efficient service, reasonable price. I had the large lamb gyro at a decent price and it was nicely seasoned, full of fresh lettuce tomato cucumber and onion, and had great tzatziki. They offered hot sauce which I took and it was a great optional addition for me as a spice lover. While waiting I drank free water from a dispenser on the counter and enjoyed the fact that these folks are running a small and quick cafe with authentic food, and not pretending to be my fake friend with effusive over the top “service”. Highly recommended if you enjoy good food and don’t require “the help” to supplicate to you.
Nice place and very clean always .. people very nice and food really good

Gyros are really good portion size and very affordable prices! No fries in the gyros, so we ordered some on the side. A bit thicker cuts of meat than I’m used to but very flavorful. And friendly service!

Very casual place. Order at counter. Good food. Just a few tables. Tables had leftover food on the table and were dirty. I asked staff to clean our table, they said its not their job. It was not at all busy. Sloppy. Rude.
I've only order 3 things here over the years. The lamb souvlaki, the french fries and rarely, I order the gyro. The lamb souvlaki is great because the lamb is almost always grilled medium rare and very flavorful. The lettuce tomatoes & onions are crisp and fresh and with a delicious sauce. The french fries are the best in town and probably the best in the area. It's crisp and steaming hot and very well seasoned and flavorful. Sometimes I'll come by and just order the fries. Although the Gyro is fresh and has great veggies and they give a good portion of meat, it's just an average Gyro. The negatives of this place is that they are not the warmest or friendliest of people. Sometimes they won't even say a word or smile but just take your order. Also, when your order is ready and if you're sitting in the outside tables, they don't call your name or they call in a low voice and they'll just let your food sit there without going outside and telling you. And, they have significantly increased their prices since Covid. I still come here because the food is good but I don't come as much because of the negatives I've mentioned. I've recently increased ratings to 4 stars because their service has improved quite a bit.

I’ve eaten here many times. Mostly gyros. The gyros this time was terrible. Big chunks of meat rather than thin slices. Not put together well. Special was just ok. Why did things change? Not very friendly either. May not return.
Meh. Food had no real seasoning or flavor. It wasn't awful, but it wasn't great. Really small eating area, and the chairs outside aren't very comfortable. I wouldn't say no to eating the food served here (if it were free) but I could've made what they served me from home; at least then I wouldn't be paying more than what the food is worth. Not coming back. At least the employees were nice

The food was average. The chicken was blend. We ordered a shwarma and a gyro. The place is small and the costumer service is pretty bad. Maybe they just had a bad day. I have been there before I told myself to to go back but I was craving Greek food. So I went again to give them another chance and order something different. The result was the same. I wouldn't go but you might have a different experience.
We went on a recommendation from a friend. The service was fast. Food is meant to be picked up only since there are two tiny tables inside. The food just was not our favorite tasting.

Seriously? I dont know how you could shave a pice of salmon that thin. Very disappointed in our visit to a regular local cafe.

We just moved to the neighborhood so I was excited to see a Greek place right in town. I am Greek so of course my standard is a bit high. We called and ordered our food for pick-up and it was fast and they were very nice. We ordered my favorites tzatziki, avgolemono, chicken gyro, spanakopita. I’m sad that the food was not great. The avgolemeno tasted like it was made from bouillon or processed chicken broth and there was no chicken. The tzatziki was very sour as if it had been made with sour cream and not much dill present. Spanakopita was lacking flavor. Gyro was very bland. I’m sad. I hope the owners can cook with more authenticity and quality.
I cannot recommend this place. Food is heavily salted and the woman behind the counter needs customer service training. She refused to serve us tap water saying she had no glasses, although two weeks earlier the counter man gave us 2 tap waters in blue plastic glasses that were still above the counter. Prices are high enough to cover the cost of drinking water.
I am absolutely disgusted by this place. The food was infested with BUGS—dozens of gnats crawling over our dishes and all over the floor of this place. Filthy, unhygienic, and completely unsafe. But the WORST part? The manager. She was horrible beyond belief—rude, defensive, and aggressive. She blamed us for her disgusting restaurant and had ZERO interest in helping or even apologizing. She treated us and other customers like absolute garbage. The whole environment and the manager are nasty and revolting. I have NEVER experienced service this bad. Avoid this place at all costs!!!!!!

Baklava was good. Customer service was very bad. There were zero customers waiting. And some type of heated scheduling discussion happening. We didn’t feel welcomed. Won’t return.
