The food here was simply amazing! It was so good that i got it on back to back nights! The service is fair, nothing to write home about but it's pretty good.

The best shuwarma I had in my life i wish they were open on Sundays too .it was amazing

I always try to stop by when im in the West Bank. My favorite Lebanese restaurant! The chicken shawarma on Saj is my favorite. Juicy, fresh and seasoned well. Their falafel is fried perfectly. Never greasy. They used to make them shaped like a ring. Not sure why they stopped :( Also, the best fries in New Orleans/WestBank.

I got the "spicy schwarma," (a wrap) as a combo with fries and added a cup of nacho cheese and garlic toum. The wrap was very tasty, and very generous portions. The fries were very delicious. My boyfriend got the chicken schwarma bowl, which was very good, light, but super filling, great portions. Definitely skip on the nacho cheese, it's expensive ($2), and it's simply scooped out of a can, same stuff you can get at walmart. Nothing special at all, and it didn't compliment the flavors within the wrap anyway. Was good w the fries though. I'd recommend trying the wrap at least once, but do it when you can split it with someone else, or if you're really hungry on don't plan on keeping left overs. It did not reheat very well, but was really good while fresh. Definitely get the fries. I thought the bowl was delicious, and refreshing. Much lighter than the wrap. The dipping sauces were also very good. This was some of the better mediterranean food I've eaten in nola. But I will say, while eating my wrap as leftovers, there were some bits of cartilage in the chicken which unfortunately put a huge damper on my opinion of this place as a whole though. Although very pricey, they do season their food VERY well, and the food at the drive thru came out in a reasonable amount of time. I'll probably be back.

My go to order is the lamb gyro and spicy chicken saj. The gyro is packed with delicious lamb meat and veggies. The spicy chicken saj has a nice kick from the sauce and the dipping sauces really take everything to another level. This is my go to spot after a long day at work. I highly recommend this spot if you're looking for some filling and delicious Mediterranean food.

The food was really good. But the service wasn't great the girl in the window had an attitude and seemed like she hated her job.

I am a huge fan of Mediterranean food and this place took me by complete surprise. I ordered the chicken bowl with no feta salad and it was very tasty, the rice was cooked perfectly, the chicken could use a little more seasoning but paired with everything else it really didn't matter. My only complaint would be the supposed "spicy sauce", it quite literally tasted like egg roll sauce and definitely does not belong on a middle eastern bowl, however their garlic sauce definitely hit the spot. With not many Mediterranean places located on the Westbank this is pretty good option. There is no sit down area it's only drive through which I also appreciate.

This place is incredible! The gyro wrap that I got was super fresh and meat seasoned to perfection. The sauce on the gyro fries is to die for. I can't wait to come back and try the spicy and cheesy shawarma. I wish I had more than 5 stars to give. Customer service was excellent. The guy who took our order was helpful and nice. I will be back over and over again.

You ever have those days where you forget to eat? Well, I was having one of those days and needed something FAST before I started breathing fire from hanger. BUT--I also needed it to be delicious, filling, and not too heavy (I'm a beggar and a chooser, yes). In comes Sultan's Shawarma Shack. Mediterranean food is always a yes for me and it meets all of my criteria to quell my hanger. I'd never had Sultan's before, but we were in the area and I remembered that one of the influencers I enjoy, MoMunchies, had sung it's praises; they also had a drive thru which was a wonderful bonus. I got the chicken shawarma bowl. It came with yellow rice, chicken, salad with olives and feta, and hummus. I didn't even wait until we were out of the parking lot to dig in and after just one bite I was immediately transported to a happy place. The chicken was flavorful and tender, the rice was perfectly cooked and fluffy, the salad added a lovely crunch and coolness, and the hummus brought it all together. I was so, so good. I was halfway done before I noticed that there was bread and sauce, and I love a condiment and could eat my weight in most breads. The meal came with three sauces--I'm not sure what they are, but one is kind of like a sweet chili, one is a little garlicky, and the other one is creamy and spicy. All very delicious and add a little razzle dazzle to the dish, but truthfully it doesn't need any enhancements. They also have wraps and sandwiches, but the bowl is the one for me. It was packed full and enough for two servings for me, and it was filling without making me feel heavy. I've already been back twice. Definitely give them a try!
