" Had a quick lunch at Petrinos today. I was excited to try the falafel after reading so many positive reviews. While the flavors were good, I found the falafel a bit dry for my preference. The rest of the dish, including the fresh salad and tahini sauce, complemented it nicely, but it could use a bit more moisture. The service was prompt, but I wished for more interactions with the staff to really feel the welcoming vibe that others have mentioned. I still think it's a solid spot for a quick meal! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely amazing Greek food! We ordered a plethora of options to share, including gyros, falafels, and tzatziki sauce. Everything was so fresh that we couldn't get enough. Service was a bit slow, as they seemed understaffed but the food made the wait worthwhile. The atmosphere was okay but could use better seating arrangements for larger groups. The key highlight for us was the freshness of ingredients used which is a huge plus! Looking forward to coming back to try more dishes. " (*Curated Review*)

" Petrinos was a delightful find! The price to portion ratio is terrific. I tried the greek salad with grilled chicken, and I was impressed with the amount of chicken included! It was both filling and refreshing, especially with the homemade dressing drizzled on top. The only downside was the restaurant was quite busy, which made it a bit noisy. Nevertheless, I enjoyed my meal and thought the flavors were high-quality and authentic. Can't wait to bring friends for a nice dinner here! " (*Curated Review*)

" Petrinos has become our favorite spot! We went there last week and got the family platter, which offers a hearty selection of assorted dishes at a great price. The kebabs were some of the best I've had, and the flavors were so vibrant! My kids loved the baklava for dessert, said it was heavenly. While the decor is simple, it creates a comfortable spot to dine, albeit a bit crowded. Overall, a wonderful experience and I would highly recommend it to families looking for delicious Greek cuisine! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delightful place this is! We dropped in for a quick bite and ordered a variety of dishes to sample, including spanakopita, gyros, and baklava. The level of quality and flavor exceeded our expectations, especially the baklava that was heavenly! The service was amiable, but slightly disjointed with the orders during peak hours. I recommend coming here anytime you're craving authentic Greek cuisine; it's a real treasure! " (*Curated Review*)

" Pleasantly surprised by my recent visit to Petrinos! I went with my partner and we both loved our meals. I had the chicken shawarma wrap - it was huge! The chicken was flavorful and tender, while the wrap was well-prepared. My partner got the pesto pasta which unfortunately was just okay. He said it tasted a bit bland compared to everything else. Nevertheless, the overall experience was great as the staff were friendly and the ambiance was cozy. I'd still recommend trying out their specialty items first before ordering pasta. Will definitely be back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" I came to Petrinos after hearing my friends rave about it and it lived up to the hype! The gyro plate was served quickly and was generously portioned. The lamb was tender and everything had an authentic Mediterranean flavor that I absolutely adored. The atmosphere was casual which is perfect for a laid-back meal. However, the service could have been slightly better as our waitress seemed rushed. Still, I left satisfied and look forward to returning to try other items on the menu. " (*Curated Review*)
