My ex-coworker and I needed a late night snack, and he recommended Sultan's. He hails fr Afghanistan, so he knows good Middle Eastern food. My kofte was moist and nicely seasoned. The hummus was creamy and flavorful. The only downside was the pita was dry. Regarding the ambiance, its big here. There are a lot of picnic style tables inside & out. We ate outside bc they closed @ 10 pm (we ordered around 9:30 pm). Unfortunately, the service was slow. In addition, we were told our order would be packaged take out, but we could eat inside. As I stated earlier, we ate outside. I look forward to return again earlier, so I can sit inside. Sultan's also offers a lot of pistachio based desserts that I would like to try. read more

Sultan's Kebab - Kofte Plate ($17) Very good, but pita was dry - Mediterranean Near Me - Pleasanton, California

We were nearby around lunchtime and decided to stop by Sultan's Kebab in Pleasanton. We'd done takeout from here before and already knew the food was amazing, so we figured dining in would be a nice change - and it totally delivered. There's something about eating it fresh off the grill that just hits differently. We got garlic fries and beet pickles to start, followed by the combo chicken & lamb shawarma plate and the combo chicken & lamb shish kebab plate. Both came with salad, rice, hummus, and warm pita. The meats were perfectly cooked and seasoned with great flavor. I'm especially a fan of their house-made spicy sauce and the yogurt based one(I think?) - they pair really well with everything on the plate. When we got there, there were plenty of tables open both inside and outside, which was nice. But by the time we left, it filled up quite a bit. If you're in the mood for something fresh, filling, and packed with flavor, definitely check this place out! read more

Sultan's Kebab - Chicken Shaw Plate - Mediterranean Near Me - Pleasanton, California

We stopped by after 9pm on a Saturday night after finishing a late soccer game nearby. We were pleasantly surprised to find a spacious, uniquely decorated and fairly popular shwarma joint amidst an outdoor mall. As we walked up, the size of the establishment was spacious for a casual Middle Eastern restaurant, with outdoor seating bordering the entire perimeter of the corner site. The outside had comfortable booths. The inside had a welcoming and spacious entry with enticing desserts on display and an impressive digital menu. The inside also had whimsical red themed booths with fairy lighting and umbrellas hanging from the ceiling - nice touch! All of our dishes were delicious and seemed so very fresh compared to other fast/quick kebab places in the Tri-Valley. We had a variety of items and they were all noticeably freshly made and delicious: Falafels Combo Kebab, lamb and chicken, with salad Combo Shawarma Salad with lamb and chicken Lamb Shawarma Salad Salmon Kebab Plate The Lamb Shawarma and Salmon Kebabs were the stand-outs but all the dishes were deliciously fresh. Big bonus: the portions are very generous - next time we may share a plate, they were so huge! The service was quick, polite and attentive throughout our experience so kudos for a great meal! Highly recommended! read more

Food - meh. Kinda greasy. Flavors unoriginal. Ambiance - fun. Packed on Saturday night. Service- adequate but nothing special. If I come again it will be for the tea and Turkish delight. Not for a meal. read more

We ordered French fries about 40 minutes ago and followed up a couple of times to check if they were ready. Unfortunately, when we finally received them, they were very cold. We were quite disappointed, as we were expecting fresh and hot food. We hope you can look into this issue to help improve the service for future orders. Thank you for your attention. read more

This is my local go to favorite for Mediterranean food. I love the beef and lamb kabobs. Super tender and flavorful. It comes with hummus, pita, rice pilaf, salad, and 4 kabobs skewers that are a mix of beef and lamb. You must have the delicious creamy sauce and the chili sauce to go along with it. The service is always friendly and helpful in explaining the menu. When you first walk in, you automatically see their delicious desserts including baklava, cheesecake and Turkish delights. They all look amazing. I love the variety of all the flavors they have. We were too full to order dessert after but definitely will come back. read more

Sultan's Kebab - Turkish delight - Mediterranean Near Me - Pleasanton, California

Visiting this location of Sultan's Kebab was actually a bit of an accident, since there were several Sultan's Kebabs in the area. Walking in I ordered a lamb wrap, a Turkish delight, and a baklava, however the wait time was a quite long for how simple the wrap was. I also didn't receive the Turkish delight in my togo bag, instead receiving two baklava. Overall I have a hard time giving a full four stars for my experience even though I really liked that the spot is Turkish. The quality of the lamb in my wrap was poor and although I liked the style (it wasn't cut down the middle but instead was a thin single wrap), the wrap was so simple the meat not being amazing meant it just wasn't very good. All in all, I would come back but would likely try something different. read more

Such a cute spot! Love the interior of this place - from the red chairs to the cute hanging lights and upside down umbrellas to the pretty grass backdrop. An overall upbeat and inviting atmosphere. My friends and I placed our orders with the cashier at the front. Then, they gave us a number to take with us. There were a lot of tables available. My friends and I chose to sit at the long table next to the backdrop. I ordered the Falafel Plate, which came with rice, five falafel balls, salad, hummus, and pita bread. I thought the portion size was pretty good. I just wished we got an even amount of pita bread. There were four of us, and they brought out one plate with six pita bread for all of us. It would've been nice if we each got two, but it wasn't a big deal. I liked the Falafel Plate. The falafel was crispy on the outside. The salad was seasoned well. The rice was soft, and the hummus was creamy. Overall, it was a good meal. read more

I got the combo shawarma because I couldn't decide between lamb and chicken! The chicken was more tender, but I love the taste of lamb, so I'm glad I got both! The hummus is to die for, but unfortunately they don't give you much, so I'd definitely recommend a side of that to share. The portions are also humongous and shareable with another person! So for a pair of two, maybe a combo plate and a side of hummus? The place is also very cute and aesthetic, cute for a date spot! Mostly a self serve spot, you order at the front, bring your number to a table, and get your own water so you never have to ask for refills, you can go get it yourself which is nice. read more

Excellent and fast food. Super happy team goes far to make you satisfied. We had a lot of dishes. The standout was the chicken Adana. The tabuleh had an unusual twist to it. Quite delightful. The hummus as expected and the babaganoush really good. Pita was soft and fresh. Prices were lower than expected. All entrees we had under $20. If in the area, recommend you give them a try. Side note: the water in large canisters tasted amazing. read more

l've frequented Sultan's Kebab in Pleasanton, CA several times, and they never disappoint. From the Chicken Kebab and Adana to the combo shawarma and more, the food is consistently of high quality and beautifully plated. Each dish is savory and delicious, making this the best kebab restaurant I've experienced. The restaurant boasts nice decor and a welcoming atmosphere. There's plenty of seating, though it can get very busy during dinner time. Despite the crowd, the place is always clean and organized, including the restrooms. The staff are friendly and pleasant, adding to the dining experience by warmly saying "enjoy" when they deliver your food. Make sure to treat yourself with their sweet desserts too. I highly recommend Sultan's Kebab if you're looking for a great Mediterranean dish. These photos were taken from several return visits. Thank you Sultan's Kebab. read more

Outside looked unassuming and inside is Very clean and organized. There was a short line at 5:30 on a Monday night. Line went ok but I noticed that a lot of people must have ordered online or called because people were getting their food relatively fast compared to our order. All we ordered was a chicken shawarma and a chicken Shiskabob wrap. They told us it would be 15 minutes but it needed up being 30minutes. When we did finally get the food, it was good! Maybe a little pricey for what we got but the portions were good! Overall solid. I think I'd call ahead or go when I don't have anywhere to be. If the wait wasn't so long, it would easily be a 4.5 star from me read more

I just returned from a trip from Istanbul, so I was craving Mediterranean food. Sultan's Kebab hit the spot. The food is always consistent. Food: * Combo Shwarma plate: 10/10 I get a beef and chicken combo. Comes with hummus, pita bread, salad and rice. * Combo Shish plate: 8/10 2 chicken shish/2 beef. Comes with hummus, pita bread, salad and rice. * side of hummus: 10/10 One of the best hummus i've had. Rivals the hummus I had in Istanbul. * Kunefe: 7/10 Shredded phyllo dough stuffed with sweet cheese topped with sugar syrup and Turkish pistachio. I had Kunefe a lot in Turkey. Not as good as the ones I had in Istanbul but it's probably the best in the states. Love the food here. I'll be back :) read more

I didn't know I was going to be in the East Bay today. I wanted to do some more Halal. I'm at Sultan's Kebab Mediterranean in Pleasanton this evening. I went with a Beef Shish skewered Kebab Platter. It's more Turkish style this time. The Hummus consistency is what I'm used to, not too tangy, and the Purée was so smooth. The Bread felt fresh. The Beef was grilled to perfection, it was seasoned very well, it was smoky, and juicy. The Tzatziki Sauce wasn't too overpowering like some others I had out there, and complimented the dish very well. I was going to give this a 4.3-4.4 stars, but I give this 4.4 stars. read more

Food here is fresh and delicious. Falafel's were cooked perfectly with a nice outside crunch and tasty moist inside. Rice had lots of flavor as well as the lamb.

I ordered a couple Chicken Shwarmas for take out. There wasn't a single customer in the place, yet somehow I waited over 30 minutes for the most basic menu items. When I finally asked for ETA, they said the chicken shwarma takes a long time to cook. Like what? It's already supposed to be prepared and you just carve it off to order. They must have throw everything in the box and it just sat there for the whole 30 minutes because it was cold. Wasted my whole lunch time waiting for cold food. There are other reputable kebob places in town and I'll probably never go here again. read more

This was our first time trying Sultan's and all we can say is how sad we are that we hadn't tried sooner! Wow! Everything was scrumptious. I had the Seafood Combo (salmon and shrimp kebabs) that came with a tossed seasoned salad, rice, and hummus. My bestie had the Chicken Adana Plate with the exact same sides. We finished the entire plate! Everything was super flavorful, well seasoned, and tender. We also ordered the hummus with pita bread, rice pudding, and the triple chocolate cake. All of which were also delish! In addition to amazing food, the customer service was great, the team was actively cleaning up and bussing tables almost immediately as folks were finishing, and they kindly welcomed my emotional support animal inside since it was very cool on their patio. We cannot wait to return! They also had freshly made orange, carrot juice, and lemonade that we cannot wait to try next time around! P.S. The inside decor was quirky and fun. They had neon lights, colorful umbrellas, and greenery walls. read more

You could honestly taste the fresh, grill flavor which made it more appetizing. The interior was gorgeous and perfect for hosting major parties. My newborn could see all the red decor and was memorized by the colors. Our servers handed the food within 15 minutes, and the quality was extraordinary for such a short wait! read more

Sultan's Kebab - Yummy Plate - Mediterranean Near Me - Pleasanton, California

Food was good, but a smidge overpriced for what it is. I mainly came here for the Kunufe, but also ordered the lamb plate. They didn't seal the Kunufe well so all the syrup spilled throughout the bag and made everything super sticky. Also, it was like there was hardly even any cheese in it. I don't know what cheese they even used but it was like plastic that doesn't melt. Like I could hardly find it because it was such thin slice of non-cheese. Also, if an orders to go, and you know this dessert should be enjoyed crispy, wouldn't you put the syrup on the side?? Sad when the Kunufe Trader Joe's used to sell was tremendously better. read more
