    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!

    BOMB! Taste fresh, simple and just what we wanted. Enjoyed a the gyro and a side of fries. Really enjoyed it here will be back

    Combo plate :)
    Lillian W.

    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!

    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…

(We love that we can order from the…read moreKiosk ourselves) Sometimes, they're out in the back cooking and if we need to help ourselves, we do with the Kiosk. Music wasn't too loud, Tables were relatively clean for a Thursday afternoon and Service was very good. I noticed the guys working on the food after we order, I had no idea it was made it order. That's absolutely amazing. It takes a few minutes, however the food is soooo worth it. The buns are Martins Potato Buns and of course, being Martins they're super tasty! A lot of High end chains use Martins so naturally, I was happy to see the brand. (These buns stay together but when sauced they like to slide and that's how I could tell it was Martins! After our food, we were able to get lids and to-go boxes just by asking the gentleman working there. I think his name was Andrew if I remember correctly. There's a small crew working here that is very nice and hard working. I've never once seen any big issues here and the food is pretty consistent. There are some small changes here and there, but the food overall is very good compared to other restaurants. This place isn't even a chain and it's super tasty. I wish they were closer to where I live because I would end up eating here 2-3 days a week. It sucks my daughter can't have this food otherwise I'm sure she'd love this one too. She has a peanut allergy, and they do use peanut oil as I asked the last time I came here. (do your due diligence and make sure you ask about allergens if you are allergic to peanuts) They do in fact, use Peanut oil. If you want some good food, This is a place to try. I've been here a couple of times already. Don't expect this place to be your typical fast food. They're not your average fast food because if anything, it is fast casual. Service is very well. I can't imagine Andrew having a single bad bone in his body. If you want cheap frozen ready to go food, this is not the place. If you want something made to order, then this is your jam. Only thing I can mention: Soda selection is smaller than usually used to when I eat outside of home. Honorary Mention: Service is killer dude's an Angel. (Stubborn Brand Root Beer), Martins Potato Buns, Crispy Steakhouse Fries and Suuuuuper Tasty Mac & Cheese. The next time I stop by, I will try their Sweets and Update my Review.

I had the classic burger, looked ok when it arrived but it was not special at all, in fact if I had to vote, it would be the worst burger in town. It was spongy, texture was weird and it had no flavor (salt is your friend guys). I ate about half of it and could eat no more. I actually felt sick after eating it. There are better options near by, I would skip this place.

Steak- Flavored and soft, covered in melted cheese. It was yellow American and I do prefer white American for the Cheesesteak but not bad. Onions are grilled and chopped, I prefer them to be slightly bigger but that's just me being picky. Bell peppers- this particular sandwich doesn't come with peppers but I asked for them to be added as a preference.
