    Side of hummus
    Marlene T.

    We loved this place a few years back. Came back today and was genuinely disappointed. The gyro wrap and fries were extremely greasy. We couldn't eat the fries as they tasted horrible. Tasted like they sat in the grease for too long before turning on the heat. The gyro wrap was also greasy. I wouldn't return to this establishment.

    Absolute fire. The falafel had a delicious crunch and the inside was so soft and flavorful.

    Pitas Are Us has become mine and my boyfriend's go-to spot for Mediterranean food. The lamb is incredibly flavorful and tender, and it pairs perfectly with the creamy tzatziki. The pita is soft and fresh, and the hummus is smooth and delicious. I also enjoy the fresh veggies on the side. Portions are generous and could easily be shared if you're not super hungry. This time, my boyfriend tried the Philly Fries. While the individual components were good, the overall dish felt a bit average--so I wouldn't necessarily recommend it. On the other hand, my favorites are the plates. The gyro plate is great and I also like the falafel which is large, well-seasoned, and definitely worth trying. My boyfriend also really likes the Aioli Burger (I'd skip the double--it's already pretty filling). Service can be a little slow at times since the place isn't heavily staffed, but the food usually comes out pretty quickly. Don't skip the dessert case either--the baklava is fantastic!

    Great food from Folsom if your looking foe Mediterranean. We ordered the plate and it comes with rice, chicken and lamb, small salad, nan and tziki sauce. The lamb is very soft and the nan is fluffy. We got it delivered through Doordash and it's always been consistently good.

    A small, no-frills food spot with food to match.....and I kinda actually like it that way? (An unpretentious ~Elite~ review, whaaaaat?!). Sure, the crinkle fries could've been crispier and the falafel could've had a tad more flavor, but my meal was still very enjoyable, almost comfort-food-y! The falafel wrap was just like a hefty Taco Bell Gordita but with tender falafel as the protein (and I like Gorditas!). Super soft pita bread as the wrapper. Food was served really warm. Pretty fair portion sizes. I've tried this place only once but it seems like a dependable food spot for Folsom-ers (I don't live really close but was in the area hungry). Definitely a good find!

    I was craving for gyro and I was in the area, so Pitas are Us it is! I ordered the gyro plate to go and the hit the spot. The gyro pieces were crunchy and the rice was flavorful!

    I placed an order for pickup, I dropped in one hour before before closing. I have never ordered that late in the day from them. It was an odd experience. I didn't get my taziki sauce, I ordered the extra side. I paid for it. I even asked the cashier if the sauce was in the bag before I left. He said yes. Well there was none. Plus I didn't get a receipt. I also asked if it was in the bag. He said yes. The prices increased as well. Plus he didn't wait for me to enter my rewards point before he finalized the transaction. I even told him I was entering my info for the rewards points as I handed him my payment. Overall I felt rushed out from the get go. Bizarre. Very opposite from all my prior visits.

    OH MY PITA! This place is sooooooooo good! After spending a few hours at the Palladio, I yelped to see what eateries were around & seen this place. The food looked filling & I couldn't remember the last time I had a good gyro. Ordered through Yelp (technically GrubHub), I order two combination plate, one gyro combination, French fries no salt & curly fries no salt. We were just around the corner - took us 5 minutes to get there & we were in & out with our to go order 2 minutes after we arrived. Now let's talk flavor, the gyro combination was my favorite it was the perfect amount of meat, veggies & sauce, wrapped with their soft bread. I was in heavennnnn! Their rice platters are also super filling & flavorful. Overall we will definitely be back!

    Is the white sauce tzatziki or does it have curry in it?

    Its a little luxurious version of tzaziki, but it doesny have curry in it.

    Are the falafel gluten free?

    Falafel bread is not gluten free, but my husband is gluten free due to hoshimoto's and can find stuff to eat there. HOWEVER, he is not celiac, so I do not know if someone who has celiac would be able to eat there or not. That would be a question to…

    Petra Greek eatery is located in the Palladio shopping center in Folsom, CA…read more 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.

    If you're looking to satisfy a craving for Greek food then this place will hit the spot. I ordered…read morethe chicken gyro and it was stuffed with juicy, seasoned chicken, crunchy fries, veggies and tzatziki sauce. The pita was warm and fluffy and the tzatziki sauce was thick, smooth, and really refreshing! My friend order halloumi which I never had before and it was delicious. Then again, can you go wrong with cheese? The only thing I would not order again would be the chocolate baklava. It had a very strange aftertaste that I couldn't figure out. Overall, lots of food for a good price.

And I get the charm. It's in a converted house, super casual, quirky decor, very "we've been here forever and we know it." Order at the counter, find a seat, go with the flow. But for our first time... it didn't quite land. Service was great, no complaints there. Friendly, quick, efficient. But everything came out full takeout mode... styrofoam boxes, plastic forks that could not handle lettuce let alone falafel, and those tiny plastic water cups that make you question your hydration strategy. Meanwhile we're sitting inside like... are we dining or on a field trip? We got rice plates and nothing was bad, just nothing had that wow moment. It was all... fine. Steady. No pause mid bite. No "oh this is GOOD." I will say, places like this become staples for a reason. They're consistent, familiar, and part of the local routine. You can tell this is one of those spots people grow up on and keep coming back to without overthinking it. For me, I wanted a little more flavor and a little less takeout energy while actually eating there. Also parking is... optimistic. Plan accordingly. Would I go back? Maybe. Would I bring a real fork next time? Absolutely.
