    Combo Shawarma Plate
    Yoon K.

    We came here on a weekday night for dinner and there were plenty of seats. The food came out quickly and everything was very clean. I've been to the other two locations in Pleasanton and Livermore plenty of times, which are larger and more busy but it was nice and cozy here. Food was slightly different, I missed the flavored rice I was used to at the other locations and the salad dressing tasted slightly different. The sauce and hummus also tasted slightly different although still good. I'm a big Sultan's Kebab fan!

    Tea while waiting for food

    I have been here before for dessert. First time trying the food here so I ordered a few items to go while I was waiting I was offered tea which is a nice touch. The place is clean and the staff was helpful when I asked a few questions. They had a variety of menus from desserts to dinner plates. The food was good. I loved the kebab and the chicken was really good and tender. My Favorite was the rice and the salad. Will definitely be back.

    Decided to visit this location bc of the closer proximity than the Pleasanton location. Interior is dim with a brightly lit drink display & desserts display . Service is very casual & you are able to self service the water, lemon & hot tea(this was a nice option that I appreciate). We ordered 4 items & the best was the beef kebab. Orders: Combo Chicken & Lamb plate- smaller portion that the Pleasanton location, but consistent in taste. Instead of basmati turmeric rice, jasmine was served so it was a little disappointing. They also served it with a side vinaigrette salad. Beef Kebab plate- I really enjoyed this dish for the charred grilled flavor & the meat was nice & tender. A flavorful dish with 2 nice kebab's & again jasmine rice with a side of salad. Beef/Lamb Adana w.jasmine rice, side salad was spicy & had all the spices to make it an enjoyable meal. We also received 5 pieces of naan & I asked for 1 more to which they kindly added.

    Affordable, delicious, healthy and beautiful atmosphere all in one stop! I had a great experience at Sultan's Kebab when I stopped in for the first time after a hike. I was craving something healthy and delicious and found exactly what I was looking for here. I tried the falafel wrap and it was some of the best falafel I've ever had. I really enjoyed the large salad that came with it and the complementary tea! The restaurant is very comfortable and beautiful with paintings and hanging flowers. There was no wait to order and the food came out quickly. I'd highly recommend this restaurant for anyone!

    Shrimp kebab salad bowl
    Emi R.

    This was SO GOOD. I've been to the other "sultan kebab" ***not related. Different business same name**near Camino Tassajara and the quality doesn't even compare this place even added avocado on top and two pita slices. I was so happy the shrimp had the tail and skin off & wasn't too spicy but was very seasoned. I also love that the salad has its own unique dressing that's not a lazy tiziki sauce or something you can't tell in the photo but under my shrimp they even put mushroom roasted tomatoes and squash! I mean wow. I will be back forsure. I love that you will have lots left over!

    The food is all really tasty and the staff is very friendly and helpful. I was in a group and had a variety of dishes. I have to admit I do not know what I ate but it was all good.

    Side of rice
    Tim Y.

    Picked up take out from Sultan's Kebab a few times while passing through Danville recently. Located conveniently about a mile off the freeway exit, it's easy to get to. It's in the same strip mall as a FedEx and Dominos. My goto is their chicken kebab plate. It comes with 4 delicious and juicy chicken breast skewers, a side of hummus, rice, two pitas, and salad. A great deal for $18.99! You can also sub out the salad for more rice if you want. The rice is so flavorful and goes perfectly with the chicken. They'll also include a side of hot sauce and their white sauce which goes really well with the chicken or the pita. The fresh-made hummus has a perfect creamy consistency. The garlic fries are also great with a ton of garlic! Although these are probably better eaten fresh and in-store. I also love their falafels here. If you're looking for a jolt, try their Turkish coffee. Although it comes in a small cup, it's packed with caffeine and so powerful. The employees and the owner/manager are always so friendly and welcoming. My orders are usually ready by the time I get there and packed securely. The restaurant is clean with plenty of indoor dining tables. There's plenty of parking in this strip mall so no worries there.

    Lamb Kebab Plate
    Kristel C.

    This lamb kebab plate was absolutely delicious. The lamb was juicy, well-marinated, and grilled perfectly, with rich, smoky flavor in every bite. The plate was generous, balanced, and incredibly satisfying. I'll definitely be ordering this again.

    rotten lettuce
    Cherese L.

    I literally just purchased a falafel salad about an hour ago (it is now ~7:45p.m). PAID $20 Visa. Drove home to Vallejo and opened container to discover ROTTEN SALAD. I called the restaurant, told them I took pictures and that salad was rotten. Whoever I spoke with had me repeat the word rotten about five times before I could get a response. He insisted the salad was fresh and it was the dressing and said "that's how our salads are". He wasn't interested in looking at pics but was abrupt to say "I can't help you" and hung up. So insulting and disappointing since the guy that rang me up was eating a huge mound of fresh salad outside when I went back in the restaurant to pick up my order ~ I was anticipating the same. He had on a pink hat and pink shirt so if he was the one who I talked to on the phone, shame on you. Some lettuce is orange/pink on edges and some has black slime. Check the pics. I have no reason to lie about this. Perhaps they will think twice before serving a customer ROTTEN salad for $20!!!!

    I love coming here for a weekend lunch after a walk at my favorite Park in Danville…read more My husband always orders his favorite combination shawarma plate. It's a huge plate of food and he always brings home half. I tried their vegetable plate today for the first time. I thought the flavoring of the different dips were just okay. The eggplant dip was too sour. In order to make everything work, I highly suggest you save the red sweet pepper dip and mix it with everything else. I enjoyed the two falafels because they were hot, very light and crispy. The dolmas were sour. Overall, I felt like I was eating a lot of baby food. It's difficult to take home dip so I just ate it all which is a lot of food. I enjoyed the chickpea salad. It was one of the three items that was not a dip. The dips went well with their pita. When you order two entrees, you get a good amount of pita. They always serve complimentary black tea with your meals which is comforting to have. This restaurant is always clean and the music relaxing and not overwhelming.

I appreciate they have a kiddo menu and also that they offer Haloumi Cheese as an option for their wraps/plates/bowls/sides. I ordered a Grilled Haloumi Cheese Bowl that was absolutely delicious. It came with a choice of arugula salad, tumeric rice, or 1/2 and 1/2. I chose the 1/2 and 1/2 ~ the bowl was accompanied also with fried eggplant, cucumbers, hummus, tahini sauce, and pomegranate molasses. My husband ordered a steak shawarma plate ~ the steak was cut perfectly for our kiddo to enjoy too! We also did a cold mezze side of hummus with pita. There is interior/exterior seating. Order at the register, food is delivered to you. The staff was incredibly accommodating on a busy weekend afternoon, and offered extra napkins/silverware/and ask for the hot sauce! Writing this, I can't believe we didn't try the falafel! But that leaves room for next time. Street parking can be found in front of restaurant and there is a lot in back of restaurant too. I would recommend patience when finding parking on Hartz Ave :) The food was very fresh, hearty portions, came hot and in great timing, fair pricing, and a nice array of meat/veg options. Intrigued to also check out their Oakland location too.

    Review is for Doordash order:…read more Falafel Boy is a restaurant we seem to order on a weekly basis. The simple reason is that our 5yo son is an extremely picky eater, and for some reason he is a huge fan of the Kid's Chicken and Rice bowl. The rice is Turmeric rice, and completely yellow and seasoned. Chicken is boneless and seasoned but usually on the dry side. Doesn't matter / our son has been known to finish half to all of a bowl by himself for lunch. Recently we've been getting double orders to have a backup dinner option. As for the adults, I occasionally enjoy their lamb kabobs and Chicken Shawarma, while the wife is a fan of the Shrimp Kabobs. The combo plates are a complete meal since you get hummus, pita bread, and a small side salad. Definitely one of our go-to favorites for a quick lunch we know our son will enjoy.

We used to come here frequently before the pandemic, but for some reason stopped coming on the years since. I yearned to come back since our 4yo loves Persian-style rice and the kabobs at Santorini nearby are inconsistent - sometimes juicy and sometimes dry. With Yelp's Grubhub app, you can order for pickup and customize. Its amazing you can choose thigh or breast for chicken. Definitely get the thigh for a juicier chicken! They even let you customize the rice preparation: * The basic saffron rice is the classic white basmati rice with some saffron to give it some yellow color. This is my son's favorite and he can probably devour an entire plate. * Jewel-style adds candied shredded carrots, orange zest and pistachios for added crunch and sweetness. *Zareshk-style used barberries to add some tartness to balance out the sweet, and is another one of our favorites. Definitely will use their Grubhub ordering system going forward. Besides the awesome kabob plate, they also offer several Persian stews and desserts.
