Petra Greek eatery is located in the Palladio shopping center in Folsom, CA. I recently had a lunch craving for Mediterranean food. I recalled there was a Petra Greek in Folsom's Palladio shopping center. So off I go. The cashier was polite, and knowledgeable about the menu and food. The dining room had a lot of seating, and was kept neat 'n tidy. I got my to go order super quick. My Petra combination was yummy. Not the best ever, tasty nonetheless. The combo plate came with rice, Greek salad (which was big chunks of tomatoes & cucumbers with Kalamata olives, red onions and feta cheese) , chicken souvlaki, pork souvlaki, beeftekia, pita bread and choice of tzatziki or hummus. The chicken and pork were tender; the skewered meat was flame cooked giving a barbecued flavor. The beeftekia is a patty of ground pork and beef and spiced up. Very unique flavor. I couldn't decide on hummus or tzatziki so I ordered both for an extra $2. The Petra plate is alot of food, get ready to strap on the ole feed bag. With the quantity comes a higher price. $23.99. The extra sauce $2 might not seem to be a lot of money but for the itsy bitsy container, I thought it was pricey. I haven't been here in over a hot minute. As I was driving about looking for a parking space as if I were scouting for dry land from being lost at sea; I realize why it's been over a hot minute since my last visit. Finding parking is ruff. There are few spaces in front of the shops which the stars didn't align for any spots being open when I drove by. There is a parking garage and open lot but it's a walk in. I gave up on the parking garage after driving to the second floor and driving half way through, no available spaces. So I truck back out to the lot in front of Kirkland and See's. I walked in from there, along the way bopping about like frogger trying to cross the lot and crosswalk without getting hit. read more

Sunday after work we were craving their Gyro's they are so very yummy! We get the combo they come with a drink and a lot of fries! We have tried other restaurants that have Gyro's but we just love they way they make theirs so much! We drive out of town for them. Can't wait to go back. If we lived closer it would be very hard not to go more often. read more

Came here for lunch and the first thing I noticed was how open and spacious the place feels. You order at the counter, grab a number, and they'll bring the food right to your table. I got the chicken gyro wrap and it was packed! they load it up with fries inside, which honestly makes it super filling in the best way. Their self serve fry sauce station is a nice touch too, and adding that sauce to the wrap made it even better. For dessert I tried the chocolate baklava, and it ended up being one of my favorite parts of the meal. It was surprisingly light, flaky, and just sweet enough without being heavy. Overall, the food came out quickly, tasted fresh, and this spot works great for a casual lunch where you want something satisfying without a long wait. The only downside was a small but pretty noticeable issue: when I ordered a regular baklava to go, the cashier used tongs to grab it, but when it wasn't sitting right in the box, she flipped it over with her bare hand. It definitely threw me off because it felt a bit unsanitary, especially happening right in front of customers. I didn't say anything in the moment, but I really wish they'd just stick to tongs the whole way through. Besides that, the place is solid. I'd come back, just hoping for slightly better handling on the desserts. read more

The soup was all water. MUCH better at Daphne's! Petra's was truly vile. Also they changed their PITA - it now tastes like it is made from a mix. Kabob House has the BEST pita. Will NEVER patronize this chain restaurant again. (We didn't know it was a chain when we ordered). Yuck! read more

We ordered takeout May 23, 2026. We both ordered the Petra Special, which included chicken, beef, and pork. The chicken and beef was sooooo dry we did not finish them. The pork was good, not as dry. The rice and tzatziki sauce were tasty! Very disappointing, especially for the cost of the dinner. read more

I absolutely love Petra Greek. While the prices are on the higher side, the quality and portion sizes make it well worth it. I easily had enough food for multiple meals. I ordered the Gyro Plate with Tzatziki sauce, the Avgolemono soup, and a side of fry sauce. The Avgolemono soup, though $9 for a small cup, was hearty, flavorful, and came with warm pita bread. The Gyro Plate featured a generous portion of tender beef and lamb gyro meat with rice pilaf and salad. I chose all salad, because I love their fresh cucumbers and tomatoes. The dish also came with pita and Tzatziki sauce, though I like to pair the gyro meat with their delicious fry sauce. Overall, Petra Greek delivers consistently great food, generous portions, and authentic flavor. Highly recommend. read more

Petra Greek - Beef & Lamb Gyro Pita combo - Greek Near Me - Folsom, California

I was in search of a somewhat healthy dinner while staying in Folsom and found Petra Greek on Yelp. Usually I find Greek/Mediterranean food to be healthy so I decided to give it a try. This restaurant is located in the shopping center and would make a perfect spot to fuel up during a day of shopping. There are a handful of tables, which at the time of my visit were mostly filled with diners. Although it was busy, it was loud as most diners were solo or in pairs. Upon entering, I spent a few minutes studying the menu before I was greeted and placed my order. I opted for the Veggie Souvlaki Pita with the side salad/drink combo and an extra side of tzatziki. My food was made to order and only took less than 10 minutes to prepare. I did have to ask for my drink cup as they forgot to give me that. I took my order to go as they didn't have WiFi in the restaurant and I needed to get some work done. It was a short trip to my hotel across the street and I was a bit surprised at how soggy everything had become so quickly. I'm a huge fry girl, it's honestly my go to, but they were a bit soggy and flavorless in the pita. The veggies were grilled and had good flavor, but the entire pita seemed really greasy, which was odd. The tzatziki was a little odd too, it was really thick and was lacking much flavor aside from garlic. Overall I don't think I'd return, but perhaps I just ordered the wrong dish for me. read more

I should have known that there was going to be a problem when my chicken gyro pita got served about five seconds after I sat down. There's no way it should've been ready that soon. It was mostly fries, some chicken, awful taste. The chicken was old and dried out. I took three bites and threw it away. I have had stomach problems all day since then. I highly suspect that chicken was sitting there under some heat lamp forever. On top of it all, even if it was fresh, not worth $14. I basically had fries in a pita with some chicken. A few slices of onion and only one slice of tomato. read more

I had dinner here recently while in town visiting family. I had the Chicken Souvlaki Plate I had the Chicken Souvlaki Plate: Fresh cut chicken, skewered and seasoned with Greek spices, cooked over open flame, with french fries, Greek salad, tzatziki sauce and pita bread. The portions were huge and I could not eat it all. The chicken was really tasty, easy to cut. The salad and fries were super yummy too. The tzatziki was pretty garlicy but overall tasty. Pita was not too heavy. Overall a nice restaurant. Big portions, tasty food. read more

Petra Greek - Chicken Souvlaki Plate - Greek Near Me - Folsom, California

It's very hit & miss here. Today, after ordering $17 salads, I got home to find no salad dressing, the mushiest tomatoes, brown lettuce & I'm pretty sure it usually comes with pita bread, but there was none. I love Greek food, so for years, I go back & forth with Petra Greek. Today marks the day that I officially quit, once again. The last time we got home & hadn't received our soup, I drove all the way back & asked if I could get fresh bread with the soup & was rudely asked, " Didn't you already get some?" It seems that if a customer is not given the food they paid for, has to make a 2nd trip to get the food, there would be some sort of apology or even basic customer service. This particular employee has worked the register for several years and is also hit & miss. Sometimes she is pleasant & other times seems very inconvenienced. I love their soup, but it's time for another break. On a positive note, the restaurant is always very clean & I love that! read more

I know Petra Greek restaurants are a Chain but I was really pleased with my meal at The one in the Palladio. They offer a nice Happy Hour Monday-Friday and it was a great portion for a very reasonable price! (especially for The Palladio) I ordered the Soulvaki, which included 3 large skewers of tender, flavorful meat, and fresh, warm, pita bread. The Tiziki sauce tasted great. The service was friendly and fast! Very relaxing, comfortable atmosphere. I would highly recommend this place and would definitely go again. read more

I love this popular Greek eatery located in the Palladio near theaters. Generous delicious portions made to order and served up quick by hospitable servers! I love the Chicken souvlaki pita but any dish has proven to be done well. Also love the tasty rice pilaf. Always plenty of tables inside or outside and kept clean. Bring an appetite for the large portions. Also love that they have Coke products read more

Worst Greek food in the Sacramento area. They use to be good, but not after our last take out from Folsom. The owners won't listen to real Greeks for advise because the owners think they know it all. The cooks over-cook everything on the menu unless you beg them to cook menu items half as much as what they think is normal. Feta cheese tastes like terrible. Tomatoes have no taste. Cucumbers are okay. Chicken looks and smells like dead squirrel. Why no Pastitsio, no stuffed green/red peppers, sea food, and other real Greek food items. Don't think your customers will buy it? Think again. The food is tired. Please give the people real Greek food and your sales will explode! read more

Petra Greek is the Mediterranean food to try! I had this combo salad & meat on numerous occasions and it never disappointed. This particular location is in Folsom Palladio center. I usually call in my order and by the time I get there it's ready to go. Inside vibe is quiet, workers are courteous and welcoming. The only downside as of late is price keeps climbing up and up.

Gyro was cold to Luke warm. Fries were good. Not sure what wasn't happening. They were pretty slow.

This place never misses. It's always so darn good. The Saganaki (flaming cheese) is excellent and the mini gyros appetizer was so good we were fighting over who got to finish them. Their salad is truly Greek and well seasoned and their pita bread is the best anywhere. Gotta try this place. read more

With many food options at the Palladio center in Folsom, our friend recommended Petra Greek. At first, I balked at the choice since I don't like a lot of pungent spices on my foods, and on top of that I never had Greek food. Boy, was I glad I came here. This nice cozy eatery was half full at 12:30, but I heard the cashier greet customers on a first name basis, which is always a good sign seeing repeat customers. Facility was clean, spacious and well stocked of utensils and condiments. I had no clue what to order, and after voicing my displeasure of spicy foods, I literally ordered a burger. But OMG it was a burger that was out of this world. It looked like a 1/3 lb, hand formed beef/pork patty that was so juicy it seeped through the wax paper. Kosseri cheese was perfect and bun was like a Brioche bun. Fries were piled on the plate (but sold separately with a drink as a combo for$4.50)...well worth it. The wife had the gyro sampler plater that looked like a normal plate offering; literally had to take half home! I did take bites of each protein, and I must say I am now a fan of Greek food! All the proteins were flavorful and not overpowering of any of the array of spices. Our friend ordered the chicken kabob platter, and he couldn't finish his either (and he's a big eater)! He raved about the rice pilaf and the flavorful chicken. The cashier Ariana was courteous, helpful and professional from the time we ordered til the time we rolled out. What a great experience all around; they have two other locations in the Sacto area. Too bad nothing planned for Elk Grove; I will try the closer locations though! read more

As a Greek who has always been immersed in my culture, food plays a large part in who I am. Typically, at restaurants like these who claim to have authentic Greek food, I am disappointed in what they offer. Not this time. The gyro meat here is done the correct way and is fresh and cooked properly. They also offer options of beefteki and loukaniko, both of which I normally struggle to find. My dad and I ordered a beef/lamb gyro combo (so it came with pilafi or fries and a drink) and the staff was so nice! They pronounced the meal correctly too, which made a big difference to me lol. The gyro had to be one of the most authentic I've had here in the States so far. I have a large appetite, and the gyro was perfect, even the kids meal my brothers got could have been more than enough for me! My mom and brother got the souvlaki plate, and although they each got their own, they agreed they could have shared one as it was plenty for 2 people. The pita was warm and fluffy, the tzatziki and hummus perfectly flavorful. The bathroom was really clean, as was the rest of the restaurant, staff consistently on top of it. The food came out within 5 minutes. THAT is how you run a business. And the dessertssssss- they smelled heavenly and looked flaky and soft. They have 2 kinds of baklava and even kataifi! If you are in the area and in the mood for some spot on Greek cuisine, this is the place to go! read more

We went in for a late lunch around 3pm and ordered right away. The food came out about 15mins after we ordered. - Grecian Beefteki Burger: good. The beef & pork patty was delicious. However, the bun was a bit dry. The fry sauce was delicious! - French fries: crispy & not overly salty. Big portion. The fry sauce perfectly complemented the fries. - Chicken Souvlaki Plate: delicious! The portion was quite big. The chicken souvlaki was tender & flavorful. The tzatziki sauce was good. The greek salad was also good. PS. Do get the fry sauce as it's delicious on anything! Overall, good food and I'll come back to try different items on the menu. read more

Oh man, how I've missed this place. I used to come here quite often a few years back after being turned on to it. I've visited both the location here in Folsom and the one in Downtown Sacramento, but it's been a few years since I've visited. I was in Folsom today for a massage and decided to take a trip down to Petra Greek! It was just as amazing as I remember. Fast, fun and friendly service. The food was delicious and fresh and quick to come out and it was clean and calming. I got a chicken gyro and petra fries with a side of tatziki sauce! 10/10 as usual! read more

Solid Greek joint in a big strip mall. Stopped by with the family on the way back to the SF Bay Area from Tahoe. Ample outdoor seating with nice tables/chairs. Bathroom clean and accessible. Staff super friendly and helpful. * gyro salad: plenty of fresh crisp lettuce, tomatoes/olives/cucumber, generous portion of shaved gyro meat on top. Well seasoned dressing. Great way to get your greens with lots of flavor! * gyro plate: soft pita, plenty of meat, veg. A if he's y on red onion but easy to just eat the amount you want. Tzatikzi creamy and rich * feta fries: broiled so the feta is melty. Skin-on fries with good texture. Love that they have ketchup dispensers AND "fry sauce" to dip in! *baklava and Kataifi-like desserts were just so-so. A bit too soggy (like it was made a few days prior rather than within a day) but they had a good amount of nut filling and honey taste was good. Would probably skip next time. Will be back for future stops on the way to/from Tahoe. read more

First time coming here today. Service was not that great, especially for someone who has never been here. Would've thought they would try to explain more of the menu and ingredients used. Plus no 'goodbye' or 'thank you' when we were handed the food. Oh well. Got the chicken gyro and pork gyro. Good size portions but I thought both meats were dry. I think it was sitting out too long? The sauce inside is interesting but even with a lot of it, the food still taste dry. French fries were good though! Overall, I was excited to try this place out but it's not somewhere I'm dying to go back to anytime soon. read more

I love Petra Greek, they are a destination restaurant for my family and we're willing to drive up to Folsom to eat here. It's right off the freeway in the Palladio Folsom shopping center with plenty of parking in the garage or on the street. Petra has a wide variety of Greek food and none taste greasy. My favorites are the Beef/Lamb Gyro Pita, Gyro Plate, and Baklava. The food taste authentic, fresh, and meets my definition of flawless Greek food. Petra's prices are affordable and the portions are as expected. Ordered food is delivered 10-15 minutes after completion of transaction. There's clean outdoor and indoor seating. Everyone needs to try out Petra at least once in their lifetime. read more

I was having a mommy-daughter in-law day and we thought we'd stop in for lunch. This was the perfect spot! The staff was wonderful, very friendly and the gal that took our order was super helpful. The place is very clean which is so important and it's nice and quiet in the restaurant. What I mean by this is you can actually hear the people at your table, some places have the music up so loud you can't even think! The food was wonderful! I had the Greek Salad and added chicken, it was delicious. I had a small and I'm so glad I ordered a small which is a perfect size for lunch. My daughter in law had the Gyro and she loved it! She actually said it was the best one she's had in a while and was the perfect lunch portion. I highly recommend this spot, complete visit was wonderful and we will definitely be back. read more

This location at the Palladio is my recommended choice for Greek and Lebanese cuisine in Folsom. Many Sacramentans are very familiar with this popular local restaurant chain. The food is fantastic and if the other restaurants are anything like the experience we received here, expect the same exemplary service and hospitality to match. The menu features authentic dishes, in a casual setting, using family recipes, and is prepared with local products. If there is one must-try dish to get, you would be remiss to order anything other than the souvlaki - a style of kebab meats using Greek seasoning and a lemon-infused olive oil. Both the pork and chicken souvlaki here this evening were amazing: perfectly cooked, well-seasoned and so juicy. Souvlaki can also be prepared with fresh skewered vegetables. The Beefteki - a round patty made from a mixture or ground beef and pork using Greek seasoning - is another delicious, well-prepared meat dish. For those undecided on what to order or want a variety, I strongly recommend the Petra Special Plate, $18.99: one chicken souvlaki, one pork souvlaki, and one beefteki served with your choice of rice pilaf or French fries, Greek salad, tzatziki or Greek yogurt, and pita bread. I felt the meat portions were good and everything was delicious, but not too much of anything. Nothing was wasted and leftover, but I thought the Petra Special was still a very good deal for being a hearty meal - using quality meats and ingredients no less - under $20. Although you wait in line and order at the counter, the staff could not have been more friendly and helpful the evening we dined in. We were warmly greeted from the moment we stepped up to the counter. This restaurant chain is family-owned, so you know they take great pride in their food and the service they provide. Whether offering suggestions on what dishes to order or making sure larger parties like ours are seated comfortably together (by moving tables around), they are on top of it before having to be asked. (This is not often the case at casual restaurants where you order at the counter and seat yourself.) I also noticed the other staff - when not busy either preparing the food or bringing the dishes out to the tables - were very attentive and made certain the tables were wiped down quickly but thoroughly, and the floor beneath any unoccupied tables was mopped down as well as soon as the guests left. Kudos to them. One of three locations serving the Sacramento Valley. The original restaurant started in midtown Sacramento off of 16th Street. Spacious outdoor dining area in front of the restaurant at this location. read more
