If you like traditional Mediterranean dishes, Perta House is a place to check out if you are close to Portland, Oregon, or Vancouver, Washington. I was fortunate enough to visit Petra House a few weeks ago with a friend. We were looking for something unique and different to try out. I was surprised to find this restaurant next to other stores and was a little hesitant about the location. Yet once you step in the doors you are transported into another world into a new dimension. I liked the nice and calming atmosphere which offered both traditional seating in cubicles close to the ground sitting on a cushion and regular table seating. The restaurant offers colorful decorations that highlight the culture. It feels like a very welcoming space. The menu offers many traditional and more modern dishes and unique drinks.
While waiting for my friend to arrive, I tried the Mango yogurt drink they offer which originates from Jordan and their Arabic hot tea. Both drinks were refreshing and tasted very delicious. I enjoyed the way the tea was served in a tall beautiful glass tea cup with an added mint leaf.
For the main dish, I choose a traditional lentil and rice casserole called Mujaddara. The dish comes with fresh hot pita bread and Petra salad. Most of the traditional meals come with meat and the one I choose was the only vegetarian option. I wanted to try something traditional and I enjoyed the taste. The restaurant also offers different types of wraps, oven-baked dishes, and favorites. They have a very versatile menu where anyone can find something intriguing to eat.
I enjoyed the friendly atmosphere, the drinks, and the food provided, and overall had a very nice time. I would recommend this restaurant for a unique dining experience and something new for your palate to try.
