Stopped at Palmyra for a quick lunch. It easily surpassed my expectation. It is very enjoyable for people who are not familiar with Mediterranean cuisines.
The menu is really long. Smaller kebab sandwiches are listed on the very right of the menu.They are easily missed. We had chicken kebab salad ($7.99) and beef kabab ($9.99). Both came with good size. The meat was really tender and flavorful. Hummus and pita were also very satisfying. I will definitely go back.
I was told by my Muslim friends that Palmyra offers Halal meat. She said that "Palmyra purchases meat from a small market in Milwaukee that is FDA certified as well as halal certified by the Islamic center of Milwaukee." Palmyra's owner is from Syria. You can see beautiful photos all over the walls.
I have spent some time in Europe where the Kebab restaurants are in every street corner and open till late at night. They are usually super delicious, and also affordable. Although not identical, Palmyra somehow brings back my memory of all the good kebab dinner nights. I am really happy that Palmyra adds much to the restaurant scene on State St.
