Wow. Everything about this restaurant is first rate. Sergio and staff is excellent. My Salmon Omelette with caviar was divine and my partners Omelette with Serrano ham and goat cheese equally delish. A visual feast.

The restaurant is quaint with beautiful international food with a Mexican touch. I ordered the Pasta Iberica which was delicious. The bread accompanying the pasta was freshly baked and delightful. I also had the pastel selva negra for dessert which was nice as well and practically a meal in itself.... Its huge. The restaurant is more expensive as compared to usual Mexican fine dining but you do get your money's worth with the experience here.

Excelente place for a nice time, the mood is nice, relax. If you're looking for a different light the restaurant has done a great job utilizing all the rooms.

Really good food! The vintage environment is cozy and the service is good. Prices are a bit high but food is delicious.
I would definitely go back.

I hadn't expected to find a truly gourmet restaurant in Toluca, but Petra can compete with the higher-end restaurants of Mexico City and hold its own. The interior is very pretty--a restored older building with a peaceful courtyard.

I wasn't too keen on the service, which though polite, made a couple of mistakes with our drinks. Thankfully they corrected these without complaining. Also, I think it's silly for an upscale restaurant to only offer bottled water--distinguish yourself with your wine menu, not with a $5 US bottle of water.

My only other complaint is that the smoking area is within the courtyard, which means all the other guests have to breath your second-hand smoke. If I'm going to pay $50 dollars a person, I don't want to get cancer as a side effect.

The waitress really knew the menu which was the only saving grace. A lack of imagination in the kitchen seriously let her down and potato wedges that took over 20 minutes to arrive partially cooked just isn’t acceptable in a restaurant of this standard. More awareness in the kitchen of special or different dietary needs wouldn’t go astray. Vegans and people with food allergies beware before eating here.
