    Dolmas Hummus Beef Kabob Tandoori chicken

    SO. GOOD. Have had takeout two times now, and I have yet to find something I don't like. The food is beautiful and wonderfully cooked. Must visit, for sure.

    Walk in and try to sit down on a busy night. This place is in the grove on the corner so do your best with street parking if the lot behind the restaurant is full. The staff is small so you won't have a dedicated server. You can gesture to anyone and they will ensure your orders are placed. Another interesting thing is that they do not sell alcohol or standard drinks Americans would be used to, so try their pomegranate lemonade. Unfortunately my food was not as flavorful as it looked so that was a bummer. The deserts were excellent so that helped my sweet tooth. This place is not 100% accessible as the entrance is rather narrow.

    Came here on a local recommendation and we're so glad we made it a priority on the foodie hit list . Absolutely delicious. Great service and so many options for my veg heads . Order everything ! That's my suggestion. Limited Indoor seating only.

    I'm very close to saying Sultan is the best Mediterranean restaurant in St. Louis except I haven't experienced them all. However it is the most amazing I've had thus far. The service is prompt, pleasant & personable. It's a family owned business with family feel. Food is absolutely magnificent! Super fresh, flavorful & lovely presentation. Everything from carnivore to vegan options are available in entrees as well as dessert. Walking in is like stepping on onto Mediterranean soil. Decor is stunning & very inviting. Plentiful portions so save room for takeaway or delicious house made dessert l. -Christy

    I was craving Mediterranean and found this place to try out with a friend for a weekday lunch. Quick parking tip: they have their own lot with limited customer spots, so no stressing about street parking! The interior is really nice and well decorated, and the space felt clean. Seating probably fits around 25 to 30 people. I ordered the beef kabob plate and my friend got the chicken kabob plate and it hit the craving we had. The beef was a little on the saltier side but you can balance it with the rice it comes with. We both cleaned our plates and left satisfied! Staff was friendly too. I'd definitely come back to work through some of the starter appetizers next time. Overall a solid recommend.

    Glad we happened upon this Mediterranean spot while walking around. We were unsure what we wanted but this really hit the spot. We figured they had to be good due to the amount of people waiting for to go orders and how packed they were! They were cleaning off tables as soon as people left so we could be seated. We got sat within 5 mins, the workers were very friendly. It took a while for us just to get water and our Turkish coffee, and food being cooked fresh didn't take terribly long. Everything was fresh, seasoned well, the lamb chops were so tender. Rice was nicely spiced and everything just paired nicely together. Portions were large too. It was just a good dinner and prices weren't crazy either. Great spot. Nice bathrooms and clean interior and not too loud! Worth checking out for sure.

    Sultan Mediterranean is a restaurant located in the grove. I recently visited and got takeout. I enjoyed my meal quite a lot! I got the mixed grill which included a variety of different kabob meats, rice, and a tomato/cucumber salad. The meal was a bit pricy but I do think it was worth it.

    Kurdish, Mediterranean, Palestinian, Turkish. Whatever genre, Sultān is 5*. We wandered in off the highway, it was near our hotel as we were passing thru on the way to Tucson. Thanks Yelpers. We shard Lentil soup, Saksuka, Munto, and Mom's rice pudding. Added in the lemonade, mint, and pomegranate drink. Each dish was unique and bursting with flavor. If I lived in STL, I'd be here once a week. Beautiful environment. No beer, wine, or spirits for religious reasons. We were ably served by Soleen, the daughter of the owner and chef. I know they have a stellar local rep, and we are glad we were able to experience Sultān.

    Located in the Grove, parking can be tricky because of street parking, but they have a small lot in the back for customers. I thought it would be busy but even on a Saturday lunch, it wasn't too busy. We got a table very quickly. Service is great, and food came out very fast. They have an interesting menu that's a little different from other Mediterranean restaurants in the area. I thought the taste was overall average at most, but portion size was huge. I enjoyed the lentil soup that was included!

    The photos don't do this place justice. I went for lunch with a girlfriend and we thoroughly enjoyed our lunch. From the posh tea set, to the beautiful ambiance (soft chatter, lovely decor), to the sweet server that checked on us right at the second bite ( IYKYK).. we thoroughly enjoyed our lunch. Let's get into the meals! I'm currently fasting and need to choose my meals wisely. There were more than enough veggie-based items. We both had the Misala version of our curry but mine was more spicy. 10/10! My friend enjoyed hers (non-spicy) so much that she muttered that it was "the best meal she's ever had". High praise to a woman that frequents some of the best gala experiences. There's a larger dining area if you need a party and the checkout process is not done at your table to no issues with bill pay or waiting for the check. The pictures will tell the tale .. but you MUST see for yourself!

    Was out and about for some Mediterranean food and was referred to Sultan Mediterranean Restaurant. Located in the Grove, Sultan brings an incredible experience of Mediterranean cuisine and great service. We visited on. Saturday afternoon and was able to get a table without any problems. Sultan provided a very intimate setting but can also host larger groups if needed. Our server provided some refreshments while we reviewed the menu and took the opportunity to try some appetizers before our entree's arrived. Highly recommend the Hummus and Fattoush Salad. Both were prepared with the freshest ingredients. Our entrees were also served hot and seasoned perfectly. Generous portions made us take home most of our meal as the appetizers filled us up. Service was great and restaurant was very clean. Will be bringing the family back very soon and this place is a hidden gem. Highly recommend Sultan Mediterranean Restaurant, a great experience with reasonable prices.

    Phenomenal Mediterranean restaurant in the grove. 10/10 must try! Interior decor compliments the cultural food and flavors served. Service was quick and friendly--table service with payment at the counter upon finishing dining. Several of my friends have implemented this spot as a weekly staple and favorite! Food is very authentic.

    Mixed Grill.

    Service a bit slow and was was the wait for the food. When it came out it looked delicious. Rice and "salad" was wonderful. I rarely get meat, usualy only when I travel. Thr lamb was great, chicken very good, but thr beef was disappointing. It was dry and hard. The price for thr same type of meats was lower so I found it a bit hard to justify thr price jump. I expected it to be higher just not that much higher from their top price.

I read other reviews and immediately that I wanted to try their lemonade with mint, which was heavenly. It was extremely refreshing, not too sweet, not too sour, tiny chopped leaves of mint floating around like confetti. I ordered the lamb shank, a plate of pickles, and also ordered falafel and avocado dip to go. The lamb was very well seasoned and fall of the bone tender. The accompanying cucumber bits in yogurt sauce was refreshing. The side of mushrooms with carrots and corn kernels that came with the dish was mediocre, particularly since the consistency and look of the mushrooms looked like they came from a can, but I may be wrong. The plate of pickles was delightful. I will admit that I was very disappointed because I had read that lentil soup would be complementary with main dishes when anyone dined in until 4 PM, but I'd never had any lentil soup at all, unless I am mistaken about the offer. Service was fast, even though there was only one server, who was, by the way, very polite and attentive. All in all, I will be back and I might actually end up being regular here.

We ordered The Original Palestine and Summer in Dubai. Usually, shawarma meat is sliced thin and practically melts in your mouth, but here it was on the dry side and cut into pretty thick pieces. The flavor was just okay, but honestly, neither of us was impressed. The portions also felt way too small for the price. We ordered just two shawarmas and paid around $40 total, so we definitely expected more. You can only sit inside. There are no outdoor tables like you can see in some of the other reviews. The atmosphere itself felt more like a typical fast-food spot than a place where you'd want to sit and enjoy your meal. One thing that really surprised me was the soda situation. I grabbed a cup to get myself a drink, and an employee had to turn a key to activate the drink machine while I was standing there. It honestly felt like there was some kind of limit on how many drinks I was allowed to get, which was pretty strange. Parking is also difficult. There's no parking along the main street, so we had to park farther away and walk. Overall, based on our experience, I wouldn't recommend this place. There are plenty of other spots where we've had much better shawarma for the price.

The pieces of liver were hard to chew.. There was no sauce, and all in all, after two bites, I discarded my dinner. The lentil soup that I ordered, was thin and underwhelming. My daughter's Gyro sandwich was filled with only the stems of lettuce instead of lettuce leaves. The meat that came with it was rubbery and underseasoned. I will try to give this place another chance at some point, but not now. I will plan to dine there in person, to see if there would be any improvement in our meal. One of the improvements I plan to see is not being served only lettuce stems in any kind of Gyro that's ordered.
