This was genuinely the best shawarma I've had on the Ave. I've tried every other spot, Aladdin, shawarma king, etc... this has got to top them all. I was so impressed by the presentation (you get a banana pepper!) and the food itself was amazing. We got a beef and chicken shawarmas, the beef was sooo good. The inside is clean and tidy, there's yogurt drinks and vimto as well as other soda options. The service was excellent and they were lovely people to chat to. I'd definitely recommend this place over others read more

The gents working were very kind and the food was very tasty. The location was good and the food was reasonably priced considering everyone else around there was a bit over priced for a college strip. They had a combo that was a sandwich, fries, & drink for $12.99. That's very affordable which explains why it was so busy, I'll be back. read more

This is one of my friend's go-to spots, so I was excited to give it a try. It wasn't crowded when we came on a Saturday for dinner. We were just doing takeout, but there were a handful of tables inside. I got the classic gyro. I liked the bread they used, and the meat was soft and flavorful. I wasn't the biggest fan of the sauce used, so I would probably get that on the side in the future. Service was fast, and I would recommend coming here for a quick and affordable meal. read more

Sultan Gyro Grill & Shawarma - Classic gyro - Mediterranean Near Me - Seattle, Washington

One of the few spots in the area that is open as late as it is. When you walk in the guys greet you and are ready to take your order. They have your typical options. Pricing is a little high but not the worst I've seen. You get a good amount of food for what you order so that's a huge plus. They have some seating inside and it's clean enough usually. If you're in the mood for this type of food, it definitely hits the spot. read more

Sultan Gyro Grill & Shawarma - Classic Gyro Lamb and Beef Sandwich - Mediterranean Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Sultan is my favorite spot on the Ave. Highly, highly, highly recommend the #14 Arabic Shawarma -- I get chicken. It's the best bang for your buck at only $12ish for the whole shawarma and the garlic sauce is some of the best I've ever had. read more

Sultan Gyro Grill & Shawarma - #14 Arabic Shawarma (Chicken) - Mediterranean Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I'm pretty shocked as to how good this was First, the sandwich. The outside pita bread was really well toasted, and had serious weight to it - it was pretty dense. I found that this added a really great outer layer to each bite of the Gyro wrap The lamb and beef were quite plentiful - even to the point where they would often spill out of the sandwich. The portion size was pretty impressive I also really liked the way these tasted - they were quite flavorful - and not overcooked at all - rather quite juicy when you bit into them The vegetables were also good - what I would say is a bit more diversity in vegetables (eg: adding black olives, mushrooms, etc..) as this mostly just consisted of lettuce and a few onions thrown in. Also probably less vegetables in general would be better I loved the white sauce in this - it mixed so well with everything else - coating the pita, vegetables, and especially the lamb and beef in a beautiful outer layer This is what really elevated the sandwich as a whole Additionally, for the relatively low price point, this sandwich was actually pretty large - something that was impressive I do wish the wrap stayed together a bit more, however - as stuff was constantly falling out and I would have to put it back in. This is where the increased amount of lettuce didn't help the experience Now, let's get to the real star of this order - the Greek Fries There are words to describe these - but I'm not sure I have the vocabulary All I can say is that I haven't had Greek Fries even close to this before - as a matter of fact - I haven't had any french fries even close to this before A lot of people think Greek Fries are about the feta cheese you put on there. What Sultan's understands is that yes, the feta cheese is really important, which is why they have a ton of it on there However, what they also understand is the real key is the Tzatziki sauce - and the amount of it What good is Greek Fries if the cheese just falls through the fries? Or, what good is it if the sauce and cheese are just applied to the top layer of fries and all the remaining ones near the bottom remain dry? What truly makes these fries all-time is the amount of the sauce they use - what this does it a) allows the sauce to take over the entire box of fries and b) allows the cheese to really stick to the fries The amount of this sauce + cheese combination used means that even though at the start it's only applied to the fries at the top, while eating it flows down and fuses itself with all the fries at the bottom as well When I say coat the fries, that's an understatement. Each individual fry is absolutely smothered in this mixture - which is truly what makes these so incredibly good When I want Greek Fries, I don't want my fries to feel like they're dipped in the sauce. I want my fries to feel like they are the sauce - so the majority of the flavor comes from the sauce itself and not the fries. The fries should simply exist as a backbone - something to give texture. It should play a similar function to what the pita does in the Gyro Nowhere is that more present than in these fries - where each fry is practically drowning in the Tzatziki sauce + feta cheese combination You know there's a lot of sauce when after every fry, I have to lick my fingers clean of the sauce - and this still tasted amazing I don't know if I need to even mention this, but for the price point, these are also incredible as well read more

Sultan is one of those small restaurants you walk by with a window to order and know that there's something special inside. Their food is fairly priced, and there are a variety of items. The staff were friendly in ordering and were patient in clarifying a few items. I went with the Kufta combo, which featured ground beef. It was made fresh, and it took about 15 minutes. The Kufta wrap was delicious, but there was a bit too much sauce, which ended up leaking out. On the topic of sauce, it is not included with fries. I was, however, surprised at how good the fries were - seasoned with BBQ or cajun and sported the perfect crisp exterior with smooth interior. The restaurant itself wasn't too spacious, and the selection of drinks were limited. Many were out of stock, and I wish there were a few more options. Other than that, it was a very tasty dinner! read more

I got the lamb plate, Meat and pita were not fresh. Didnt have any red sauce. Rice was good. Aladdin is in my opinion is much better because they have better sauces and everything freshly made. read more

We were in a hurry to a lecture, so we entered the place. It's a fast food Mediterranean place. We were three people and all ordered together. The first dish came after 5 minutes, the second order came 10 minutes after the first one and the third order arrived 10 minutes after the second order. In total - 25 minutes to get all of the dishes. We ended up eating independently, otherwise it would have gone cold. Was it worth it? Big No. My chicken salad was sooo dry! The chicken... and the salad dressing was sour... the tzatziki was tasteless and the shawarma was very fatty from oil. The kofta was ok, but the bread they fold it in - lafa - was very thick and chewy. And we were late to our lecture. read more

Sultan Gyro Grill & Shawarma - Fellafel Sammy and chicken salad - Mediterranean Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I can't even begin to describe how much I love this place. The cooks are diligent and so nice, and I've yet to have a bad meal here. I've only tried the Arabic shawarma and the lamb and beef gyro, but it's always delicious and you get a lot of meat for the value. 2 meals with fries/salad usually runs me and my boyfriend about $31.46. I've also noticed that my gyros get packed a little extra every time I tip too Delicious salad with an amazing vinaigrette, you get a variety of veggies in it too which is always fun. I don't get the fries but they seem good. The restaurant itself is pretty small and not very decorated, but it's well maintained with a lot of seating options. It generally takes 20 minutes to get the food here so I will usually go to h mart and pick up snacks/groceries while waiting. Also I walk 0.7 miles back to my apartment with the takeout and it is always hot by the time I get home. I love love love sultans. Ultimately I'm biased because I haven't tried any of the other shawarma places on the ave, but you won't be disappointed if you go here. read more

It's so good and it's the best food I'd ever have plus it's family owned I love sultans

My son and I were walking downtown looking for someplace to eat. Saw stumbled upon this Mediterranean restaurant. The food was phenomenal, great portions, decent pricing. It's a nice non and pop shop where you can relaxed and have great food The owner was friendly even though I think I confused him and myself of what I want to try. The store is not big but own by local. The owner is kind and friendly. It's a definite must to go visit if you are craving for some authentic food. I will be back again when I come back to visually my son. read more

Really good food for the price, especially the aladdin fries, and food comes out really fast. read more

Great late night spot for gyros, the shawarma hits the spot and they know how to do French fries. Love that they're open late. Parking can be hard to find, street and walk over. Limited seating for big groups, more of a take out joint. read more

**vegetarian review** This is one of my late night take out spots. It's fairly basic and well executed Mediterranean food. I usually go for Mediterranean platter and Arabic falafel wrap. I don't prefer the fried cauliflower, eggplant dishes since they absorb a lot of oil. They are very quick as well as well priced. Will continue to go here for a while read more

A lot of restaurants claim to be Lebanese because Lebanon is known for its exceptional cuisine. This unassuming restaurant makes no such claim and yet it is the best Mediterranean food I've had outside the Middle East. The hummus is without equal and the falafel the best I've had outside of Jordan. I'm confused by some of the more neutral reviews and am curious if people thought they were ordering Greek food - which seems to be prevalent in Seattle. I highly recommend coming here and trying the hummus plate with Gyro meat, the Arabic Shawarma or the falafel. read more

Incredible food. Shawarma and Greek fries are top-tier. Always a must-visit while in the city.

Came in at 1 am with some friends. Quick service and food was plentiful and full of flavor. Employee asked if i wanted more rice during my meal. Right before leaving employee made me a chicken and rice bowl to take for FREE as they were about to close. Will be coming back. read more

No over exaggeration, this was the BEST lamb gyro platter I've ever had. And I've been to Greece. The meat is fresh and hot, perfect portions, fantastic price, you can tell it is a family business which I love. I'm only in town for work, but if I'm ever back I would come here again without question! read more

The food was really good and they were very nice about me camping at a table for a possibly unreasonable amount of time

The food is good, but the wait it long. Sultan Gyro Grill & Shawarma has my kind of food. It's delicious and worth the wait though you may want to schedule a plan B if you're in a hurry. I suggest ordering a shawarma with fries. Make sure to get their garlic sauce as well. The flavors are amazing - though they may linger too long in the masked world we now live in. (Pro-tip: Pack your toothbrush for a quick cleaning after eating.) Sultan's deserves the 4 stars I'm giving it. And honestly, even though you may wait a while for the food, you will love it. read more

It was open late after a workout so I decided to try this hole in the wall place. It did take a while to get my kebab sando but that's fair as the menu said it would take that long. It was quite good though! The meat was quality and it hit the spot. read more

Entering Sultan Gyro Grill & Shawarma reminds me of visiting stores of my childhood in a foreign country: the smell of spices, meat and vegetables on the grill remind me that I'm here for a good time. I have been a customer for about a year now, visiting several times a month. In short, it is well worth the price for all that you get. The staff are friendly and patient, the food is hot, delicious, and filled with flavour. The Tzatziki is not nearly as garlic rich as other ME or Greek stops would offer, but rather has a fresh lightness to it that complements the chicken breast it often accompanies. I highly recommend their Arabic Shawarma and the #25 Platter, Chicken. read more

Nice place, I recommend you all guys trying Arabic shawarma with chicken! Especially a combo one which was only around $15 after taxes, try a garlic sauce for sure! The only con is the restroom which looks like a public restroom in downtown Seattle . read more

Sultan Gyro is my go-to for "I don't want to cook, and I want comforting food". Their schwarmas are really good, I love the fact that they are "grilled" afterwards, it's not like your basic gyro. The garlic sauce is very garlicky (you will smell like garlic), so be careful. The rest of their food is good as well, I just don't remember it well enough, because the schwarmas just stole the spotlight. read more

They did not pay attention to the order I asked for light lettuce I paid extra for two sides of sauce which is not typical to Zieke sauce this is terrible and nasty and taste like beans and sour cream combo but the baklava it looks good I haven't tried it yet also I did not get the soda that was included in my mail and when I tried to order an additional soda from Uber eats through them they require you to order a minimum of three sodas despite however many sandwiches and then when I called the man wanted to argue with me poor customer service I will never order from this place again they don't read the directions and they don't care about their customers feedback read more

So I ordered their food on Uber Eats and didn't actually see their establishment. That being said, I don't have to see it to tell you that their food is bomb. The Greek fries are phenomenal. My gf and I agree that you must order this as a side with whatever else you get. The sauce that comes on them is top notch, they give a lot of feta cheese and also the fries themselves are cooked to perfection. We also each got a Gyro super turbo with lamb and beef. These are also excellent and packed PHAT. I haven't tried their other food but from these dishes I would think that the other stuff is likely just as tasty. One of the best parts about this place is the price. For $30 my girlfriend and I had enough food for dinner and a snack the next day. We highly recommend this place and make sure you get the fries!! read more

After they forgot my sauce and gave me the wrong soda which I found out after my husband returned home with the food he went back to get the sauce and exchange the soda and was called a "delivery boy bitch" and was told they were busy. They eventually got him some pre-portioned sauce and he grabbed the right soda, but I will definitely stick with Aladdin's from now on. The food is good, but definitely not better than Aladdin's or any of the several gyro places on the ave and definitely not worth being called names by staff. read more

This place is one of the few that is open until the wee hours of the night (2 am). Food is good and cheap! I got the veggie plate which came with hummus, baba ghanoush, dolmas, falafel, salad and pita bread! Also added lamb-beef gyro for an additional 2.9 dollars. Best of everything! I absolutely loved my veggie plate. My friend got the lamb shawarma though the meat of which was Way too well done to enjoy. Overall this place is worth it. read more
