This is my favorite shawarma place on the ave. I love the garlic sauce that comes with the shawarma and on the fries. Everything is made fresh and the staff is very friendly.

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.

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.

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.

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 .

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.

**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
