This place smells terrible and the staff is incredibly rude/unprofessional. I would stay away if you want food and not smoke.

Wonderful rack of lamb is so juicy and succulent. Great Hummus and Star tobacco. Open late yummy!!!

Best Hummus in all of Dallas! The food is unbeatable. Service could be better. I've seen some really nice patios and would love to see this place with a better patio and better service. read more

We wanted to grab something quick late at night for a reasonable price, and this matched all the boxes. We got takeout for fries and a chicken shawarma wrap. The food was hot when we brought it home and it tasted good. The fries were really well-seasoned. The chicken shawarma was okay, nothing special but still good. I'll be back here for those late night eats. read more

Sultan Café - Chicken Shawarma Sandwich - Hookah Bars Near Me - Richardson, Texas

Meh: it's mostly a smoking lounge (hookah) with a generic food (nothing spectacular). The menu is not current either: ask for "what's available" instead. Tried the mixed meat plate, very average. read more

Place is crazy packed all the time but their service is always good! I had their burger for the first time the other day and it won't bey last time. They burger was preeettttyyy good I am not gonna lie. I was taken by surprise. Who knew a burger from a little hookah place was gonna be so good. I wasn't a big fan of the fries that it came with but I can't complain too much(they're fries!!). read more

Authentic as they come! Shawarma chicken was incredible but the Arabic coffee puts any Starbucks to shame. Will come here every Sunday. Staff is incredible and music was even better. I don't smoke anymore but the hookahs smelled incredible! read more

I was off of work around 2 pm, and I decided to try this place out. Of course I found it on Yelp! I was in the mood for Greek/Mediterranean . So, to my surprise, I walk in and there are about 30 men dining and smoking . Soo....I'm like thinking I came to the wrong place! It was the right place, but soon realized this is a place for hookah as well , and it was in full effect! LOL! I quickly went to the bar and asked for a menu . I ordered the falafel sandwich and fries , with roasted cauliflower on the side to go. So, I decided to sit down and wait . I'm still feeling sort of weird . The only other woman was the waitress . LOL! I didn't have a fear, just felt out of place. I didn't have to wait long . My order was ready in about 15 minutes . So, the first thing I tasted was the roasted cauliflower . Ahmazzing! So tender and so fresh! It had just the right amount of roast . I was in heaven! Being a transitioning vegan, this soothed my soul ! The falafel sandwich was equally good , fresh with a great sauce! I highly recommend going here . They are fast and delish! read more

I typically order through Uber Eats and everything is delivered just fine, which is why they have 2 stars and not one. Today I was in the area and decided to order through GrubHub so I could pick it up instead. I get there, not greeted by the hostess and when I got to the carry out counter they seemed more occupied with the Hookah patrons inside the restaurant. After two ppl could not locate the order, the I assume manager went over to the printer and grabbed the GrubHub print out. He said "oh they didn't call us(GrubHub) to give us the confirmation number to confirm we received the order...so it'll be 10 min". Almost 20 min after waiting my food comes out. I would not recommend ordering through yelp as the manager said "sometimes they call sometimes they dont" read more

I have worked in Dubai and other parts of the Middle East. I thought after leaving I would never find a similar place until I got to Sultan Cafe. The hookahs made by Kash brings me back to the days of me smoking carelessly away in Dubai looking to the sunset. Ask for Kash to make your hookah. read more

I recommend this place it's good with service clean with food top chef abo Mohammad thnx for the food

Good food but nothing particularly stands out for 5 stars. Prices are a little cheaper than the surrounding Mediterranean restaurants but are not the cheapest either. read more

Sultan Café - Hookah Bars Near Me - Richardson, Texas

Fantastic hookah! Every time I go, the shisha is very high quality and I thoroughly enjoy it. Only qualm I have is sometimes it is too busy for the staff to provide timely service. The food is delicious and the atmosphere is very casual and relaxed. One thing to note, they allow beer however it must be non-alcoholic. This hookah bar is not a bean bag/lounge kind of location, you have a table/booth and can eat full meals there. The buffet in the evenings is fantastic!! read more

I am glad this bar is still open during covid. But as I am sitting here. I order just hummus and bread TO GO. And I am waiting outside for 20 minutes. Idk why? Everyone else is in there already just smoking hookah chillin. And now talking about hydrocodoen pain medicine. I just want my food and I'm out. This is wack asf! Nobody come here. I will make you better food for free read more

I ordered the vegetable platter and this is what I got ..... are you f'ing kidding me ????? this is seriously the veggie platter ??????? Couldn't be more disappointed. If I wanted to eat a sliced up onion and olives I would have just gone into my fridge get real! read more

What a ripoff. This is what you get for $10. 4 pieces of anemic chicken and a box full of rice. Add shitty service and this place is a double winner. I'm never going here again. read more

Sultan Café - a plate of food and a bowl of rice - Hookah Bars Near Me - Richardson, Texas

A great place to be ignored. Couldn't get server attention for to-go or dine-in service. Once went to pick up to go order with five employees behind the counter. No acknowledgement whatsoever. The conversation must've been worth my future business. Not coming back. Average food. Wouldn't suggest. read more

Favorite place to relax, smoke, and play board games. They keep the music loud enough to hear, but not so loud is distracting. Staff is great and the hookah is always smooth. read more

always great people here & great food. never disappointed with the customer service. lighting is great too a vibe.

This is one of my go-to hookah places, partly because my friends know the owners/workers and partly because it's close to King's Noodle. And because my friends know the workers, we've always had friendly and chill service. They've gotten a lot busier in the past year or so though, so there's always new faces now. For anyone looking for a lounge place, keep in mind that this is a restaurant so there's chairs and tables rather than bean bags. That being said, I've never actually eaten here so I can't comment on the food. The hookah is usually pretty good for us. read more

5+ year customer. Before I found this place I used to frequent Jasmines with my friends but that place just became a hangout for teeny boppers. Sultans... - good atmosphere - delicious food - great service - awesome hookahs we never have to look at a menu, Adel, who works there knows exactly what my friends and I want. It consists, waters, maybe a pepsi or two, hummus with 2 to 3 breads, tomatoes and pickles and of course, a hookah. Flavor? we never get the same flavor, Adel always mixes us a new flavor when we go. We come here maybe 4-5 times a month. I know the owners and workers there, it's been a pleasure watching the kids grow up and love how they can just sit down with us and have a conversation. *things to note* their Chicken Schwarma and Gyros are delish. read more

I frequent here often for the hookah. After trying numerous flavors, wild berry mint always pleases the senses. The same flavor varies a little because the hoses are never cleaned after use. With a group on at least 3, I highly recommend the pineapple head. It burns a lot slower and the juices add flavor to the tobacco. The food here is surprisingly good. The kabobs are flavorful. The hummus always takes the cake though. It's smooth texture and robust flavor marries well with a freshly baked pita bread. Couple of hot waitresses to make the experience even better. All this stuff can get expensive though so keep that in mind! read more

Over priced and unclean. Food inspectors wil have a field day at this place. The service is remarkable rude and unpleasant and I get a feeling that they believe that their existence a favor to humanity. Loud and a place for the middle eastern party types. Any one interested in easy and "open to adventure" type middle eastern girls and guys should find this place just right for them. NOT A PLACE for decent family types - so if you have kids - well leave them alone unless you have already sold their souls to the devil...in that case well go right ahead. At best this place just $%^s - Overpriced, dirty, unpleasant and this is a compliment. I think the owners will be wise to shut down cut their losses and leave the space for something more productive like a sand warehouse. Better kabob options and middle eastern dishes are available in the near neighborhood at Afrah which is an excellent alternative to this PIT -(ok I'll) Stop. read more

Best hookah in Dallas. Ownership was super friendly, great selection, and best of all, the all natural charcoal. The hoses and pipes seem well kept. Not a fan of the non-English speaking coal lady, but great smoke none-the-less. I run a hookah lounge in Boston, I would recommend this place to anybody. read more

This place is great. My wife and I go here often for hookah and just hanging out. Hands down the best (and I don't say that lightly) fresh baked khubz (bread) and hummus I've had in Dallas. Combine that with a nice pot of hot mint tea and you've got one heck of a delicious late night snack. My Lebanese grandparents would approve! Ma'Salaama! read more

I wish I could give it 3.5 stars, but since the other reviews were low enough I figure it will balance out by my giving it 4. Also, My wife Loved the food and became converted to Mediterranean food. Ya, it is very pricey. I got the combo plate for 2 persons for $30. I figure $15 per person is spendy, but we got a lot of food. They kept bringing small bowls full of fun things to dip the bread things in, then eventually the lamb kabobs which I thought was very tasty. I like having lots of things to taste, so the meal was perfect. As for the service, I will agree it wasn't spectacular. I didn't get refilled as much as I'd like, and he did seem to disappear whenever we needed him. To his credit he did let me use his laptop without hesitance so I could check my email and look up some direction real quick. So he was cool. read more

I guess the rents must be high, because Sultan Cafe is also charging a lot for food! I didn't eat, I just took a couple bites off my friends lamb kebab. The lamb was juicy and perfectly seasoned. There were plently of vegetables and rice and a whole grilled tomato served with his kebab. He also got naan and lots of different yogurts and sauces to try with it. I only ordered hot tea, which turned out to be just a lipton tea bag, my friend got iced tea..both were $1.99 and no refills. So it cost almost $20 for 1 person to eat...too much. read more

Unfortunately I can't rate this place for their hookah but my first impression was, "is this a restaurant or a storage place?" They seemed to have over stocked on their water bottles and juice that they had it laying out by the side of their counter. This was our first time to visit so we took a bit extra to browse through the menu. When asked if we were ready, we requested a bit more time. Fifteen minutes later, after he never came back to the table, I glanced over at him giving him the "we are ready" sign. He just smiled at me as he proceeded with his text messaging and talk with his friend hanging around the cash register he failed to read my I'm ready to order signal. There was only one other family there, whom had already finished their meal. Needless to say, we got up and left....having never even been offered a glass of water. read more

Hookah bar and Mediterranean cafe in that Sino-Med-Indian intersection of very upper Greenville Avenue in Richardson. Positioned at the end of a small strip mall, plenty of parking around back. I might have stumbled into the lounge area, as the whole place was entirely deserted at the height of weekday lunch hour. Had a lunch special, a grilled lamb kebob with choice of two sides (hummus and rice) and fresh bread. The portion was small but appropriate for a lunch-size meal, lean meat well done. The hummus was smooth and lightly garlicy, the plate well-presented and the flatbread was fresh out of the stone oven, hot and crispy on the outside. Good food all around for under $10. Menu had a lot of other Mediterranean plates and combos, none terribly expensive. Features halal foods and full hookah service with a menu of tobacco flavors. Would happily eat here again. read more

It might not the fanciest Middle Eastren place in town ... but the food is the bestest. You should also try this dessert called Kinafeh ... make sure to ask for fresh baked one. Yum!!! The hookah is great too. Tons of flavors. In Ramadan ... the holy month of fasting they have the best dinner buffet at sunset. Worth every penny. Best Middle Eastern restaurant in Dallas and the owners are wonderful. read more

This is a usually jam packed place for hookah. Many regulars come here, so I often run into friends here. The regulars come here because the hookah is usually excellent. And if it isn't, they make it right. The food is not bad either. I prefer this place over the other hookah establishments in Richardson. read more

I ordered their kanafeh (Arabic cheese dessert) to go and it was really good! I didn't stay to eat so I'm not sure how the service is but the place is packed on a Friday night! They have sheesha/hookah available and it seems like a spot where friends and family come to hang out, socialize, eat food and smoke hookah. read more

I've been a Sultan customer since they opened. They take the time to get to know you and treat you like family. The Hookah I'd the BEST. If you don't like it, they will remake it. Food is also great, open late, and lots of repeat customers. read more

Sultan Café - Mint Hookah... - Hookah Bars Near Me - Richardson, Texas

Good food & hookah. Parking is horrendous-- the shopping center parking lot is always packed. You'll likely have to park across the street at one of the other shopping strips. Nice, laid back atmosphere. Not ideal for colder weather since inside is always food and the patio heater isn't strong enough to heat the entire patio. read more

Came here last night and was excited to go to a place that was one of my friends favorite spots in metroplex got there at 11pm and the place was packed and the hookah was good too. But the service definitely wasn't our waiter didn't hear our order several times even though there is no music and we were at a corner table to ourselves there's no reason he shouldn't have been able to hear us. I ordered the lamb chops with baba ganoush which the lamb chops were very good but the portion was definitely overpriced for 4 small pieces and the baba ganoush wasn't just warm but it was old I can taste it was starting to go bad I never had bad baba ganoush before and I took my leftovers home when I open my container from the fridge in the morning to take it to lunch it was fermenting also my stomach has been messed up all day. Baba ganoush is my favorite side very disappointing and I hope that I don't stay sick for long. I'd rather go to the McDonald's nearby then eat here again that's how scared I am to get sick again! read more

Absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE this place!! Amazing food and the patio area is incredibly comfortable. Amazing atmosphere. I wish there was a word to describe this place. Hookah is incredible!! Let's not forget to mention the customer service, in one word, Fantastic!!! Love these guys, especially this lady (named Lina, I believe) who does not speak a word in English, but knows exactly what you want and how you want it. (Charcoal for your hookah) I will definitely come back every single chance I get. I wish I lived closer :( read more

Good knafah but the restaurant or cafe is really wired not a place I want to dine in for sure . Haven't tried the food yet but the knafeh was pretty decent read more
