Having grown up in the “Little Lebanon” section of Wilkes-Barre (most of my neighbors were of Lebanese descent) I grew up on Lebanese food and it was readily available to me whenever I wanted it. Fast forward 30 (or more) years and most of the old neighborhood no longer offers the delicious food that it did back in the 80s and 90s. St. Anthony’s church on Park Ave quit their annual summer bazaar and the little deli across the street (Cedar’s) has changed hands several times since Mr. Abutonis sold Lebanese food back when i was growing up. So I was very excited to learn Pete’s was making authentic Lebanese food exactly like I remember it from my youth. And it is just as delicious as I remember it to be. The staff are incredibly nice (even though I bug them every time I go there to teach me how to make authentic Kibbeh!) and the food is top notch every time. You won’t be disappointed.

Ya HABIBI!!! It's my Siti's kibbe (minus the pine nuts on top) I have been searching for a baked Kibbe all overNY, PA, Texas, Ghana, Toronto, buffalo- everything is this hard fried football. Blah! Found at last and so so good. Kibbe, bread, hummus, tabouli!!! This is it. I've been in W-B a few times but on weekends. I finally had my husband bring me home a takeout. So glad I did. This is the best.

The waitstaff have a good understanding of what vegan is, my personal favorites are the falafel wrap and mujadara.

The whole family works their the food is scratch kitchen everything is freshly made the best Mediterranean food
This is the most delicious, authentic Middle Eastern food I have had in a very long time. Grape leaves definitely homemade, not that mushy can stuff. Kibbe, Hummus, Tabuli, amazing.
