If I could give this place zero stars. I would. Is possibly the worst food I have ever eaten disguising as middle eastern fare, disgusting cuisine served here.the kibbie was obviously a frozen variety rubbery in consistency and absolutely inedible, the hummus was grainy and flavorless, covered in an oil resembling, but not olive oil,the falafel were frozen store bought and absolutely yucky, they were stuffed with a stuffing, not chickpea or anything resembling middle Eastern cuisine, unrecognizable as a falafel, In addition, I heard the staff outwardly criticizing customers who were dining inside..so unprofessional.. Please save your money and do not dine here. Oh, and we were served soup to dine in ,in a takeout container..shameful..

My wife and I stopped in here for lunch and she loved the hummus. Their portions are very filling and they have a very wide variety of menu options. The staff was friendly and love that the place is family-oriented.

Sultan has been my favorite place for dining, especially for mediterranean food since I first moved to Greater Lansing Area in 2013. I absolutely love their lamb/beef kafta and hummus. Also their kibbis are very nice too. The servers are friendly. Highly recommend this place.

We ordered the Sultan’s feast for 4 people and it was huge, and everything in it was really delicious. Best falafel and kebab I’ve ever tried. Very friendly and welcoming staff. Definitely coming back!

A nice halal restaurant in EL. The last time I was there was before Covid. Last week was the first time in three years. I think the place has changed a lot I don’t know why. But the food is very good. The prices are comparable to other halal places.

Me and my family love this place. there aren’t that many halal options near Lansing so this place is perfect. The food is really good and the staff are very nice. I recommend this place to anybody who is looking to eat good food .

As someone who has lived in Michigan for a while and has sampled Mediterranean cuisine from various cities like Detroit, Dearborn, Troy, and others, I must say that this particular establishment is overrated. The lamb lacks any discernible taste despite its tenderness, and the chicken also lacks flavor. When it comes to prices, Sahara in Sterling Heights offers better value for money, and their food is superior, especially if you don’t mind dining at a chain restaurant. However, if you’re looking for a local restaurant that provides a more satisfying experience, I highly recommend trying Choupli Wood Fired Kabob. If you’re seeking a diluted version of Mediterranean cuisine, this place might suit you.

My family and I have been getting consistently great Mediterranean food from Sultans for longer than I can remember. Now that I moved out of the Lansing area, visits are few and far between, but always AMAZING every single time!

This place is amazing and an absolute must try if you’ve never had Mediterranean food before. I recommend the chicken shawarma for starters, but honestly, everything on their menu is incredible. The staff is also extremely friendly.

Very friendly service, daughter wanted coffee, the gentleman recommended an Arabic type coffee which had some very interesting flavors. We paid 55 for 2 entrees, small hommous, and coffee. Lots of leftovers.
