“Had their food for the first time the other day as takeout. Staff was very nice. Food was good. I had the gyro sparta wrap...very good I also tried their rice pudding. It was very good but I think $7 for a cup is pricey. I would go back to try other dishes.“

“Here's the review Spencer wrote for you: My family and I just visited to celebrate my grandsons birthday- we like to get a bunch of plates and share family style and this menu was perfect for that. You have to get mezze and extra bread (must try the kubane). We also ended up getting three orders of the shishbarak for the six of us, it is way too good! I got the salmon for my entree which was cooked to perfection and beautifully seasoned. Spencer our server recommended the silan and the cheesecake for dessert so we shared those and boy were they something special- I can’t pick a favorite! He brought us a candle and we got some great pictures. I can’t recommend this restaurant enough.“

“Cozy atmosphere and fine dining“

“Delicious food and cocktails“

“Tried Sultan Mediterranean after finding a BOGO deal online and honestly… such a good spot for a fun night out with friends. The drinks were flowing (we had about 6 altogether 😭) and everything we ordered kept getting better. The Hot Blooded cocktail was one of my favorites, the mojitos were super flavorful, and the espresso martini was perfectly balanced.

For appetizers, the grilled calamari completely surprised me in the best way, the buffalo wings were actually REALLY good, and the shrimp with roasted garlic + toast was insanely appetizing. Portions were generous too, so you definitely get a lot for your buck. I’ve also had their falafel before and it’s so good it’ll genuinely make you question if there’s meat in it 😂

Overall, great vibes, tasty Mediterranean food, strong drinks, and a really good time with friends. Definitely worth checking out if you’re in the area.“

The drinks were strong, flavorful, and definitely worth ordering. The service was fast and attentive, and our food came out quickly without sacrificing quality. Everything was fresh, well-seasoned, and delicious. If you’re looking for great food, good music, strong cocktails, and excellent service, I highly recommend Mira Mediterranean & Hookah Lounge.

“We went for dinner on a weekday. The place was too noisy, you could not hear the person sitting opposite you, it was probably bad for my ears honestly. Please don't bring a date here lol.

The food was good, but felt kinda overpriced. If you like Scarpetta you'll like this.“

“We originally wanted to dine at Salma, but since it was full, the team kindly walked us over to their sister restaurant, Fattoush, and we’re so glad they did.
The restaurant has a lovely, homely atmosphere that immediately makes you feel comfortable. The shrimp appetizer was absolutely top-class, perfectly cooked, incredibly flavorful, and easily the highlight of the meal. The muhammara was also delicious with just the right amount of kick. The only dish that didn’t quite stand out for us was the chicken shawarma.
A huge shout-out to the wonderful woman serving the entire restaurant by herself. She was incredibly efficient, attentive, and kept everything running seamlessly despite managing it all alone. Her warmth and hard work made the experience even more enjoyable.
We’ll definitely be back to explore more of the menu!“
