I love this place! I tried the baba ganoush (sp?) and pita chips from the farmer's market and had to see where it came from. The flavors are amazing. The owner may appear gruff but he's truly kind, just not over the top. He answered all my questions about the food and beverages, and I even tried jalab on a whim- it was outstanding! For some reason, i'm usually the the only person here which makes for a great setting to read a book and have a nice meal. Highly recommended!

The owner is rude and didn't greet me when I walked in to order, just stared at me. Maybe it's a racial thing.

The food is incredible, especially for the price. I had family visit and ordered takeout from The Sultan and they talked about it for weeks! The service is incredible and the food is impeccable, they even serve homemade feta!

Owner is so rude. Like he literally could not say hi when I came in to grab an order. He seemed like he didn't even want to talk to me. HE LITERALLY DROPPED THE ORDER INTO MY HANDS like he had enough of me and wanted me to immediately leave. When I initially went here when it opened up I had no problems. Didn't really like the food much when I went the first time. Idk. He just made me feel like he was disgusted with me! I rarely (if ever) feel this way when dealing with people in the restaurant

As I write this, the Sultan enjoys a 100% health rating. They are perfect for a Friday dinner meal, as they are never overcrowded. The owner is attentive to customers and he really cares about your experience. The food is always freshly prepared from the finest ingredients.I can truly say with total confidence that my family has never had anything less than a delicious, authentic, home-style meal from the Sultan.

This place is great! Delicious food and great service. I loved the grape leaves, falafel and hummus. I can't believe I hadn't tried this place before. So many great vegan and vegetarian options. I highly recommend this place.

Hummus and spinach pastries way too salty to the point of being just gross.

I love The Sultan, the pita and hummus is the best I've ever had! And the customer service is awesome, they always remember me and know exactly what I want to order, down to the extra pita. (The pita is warm too and it is phenomenal)

We come here a few times a month. I love so many favorite dishes here I'd have to list the entire menu but to start the lentil soup is wonderful. The hummus and baba ganoush are the best I have ever had, not only is it the best in Athens, GA, it is better than any in NYC, Atlanta or Los Angeles! The falafel is very tasty as well with a bit of a spicy kick. There are so many fresh, home-made vegetarian choices to choose from too, as well as lamb dishes. Home made desserts are divine. I highly recommend lunch or dinner at The Sultan.

We stopped by on our way through town. The food is wonderful. Very friendly owners. We live 2 hours away but that will not keep us from dropping in to eat often. Excellent place to eat!
