Emily HJune 22, 2019Salad bar for $5.99/lb is amazing. Be sure to check the whole length of both sides and get some hummus, falafel, and shawarma on top of all the delicious veggies. Top with tahini and hot sauce 🤤🤤🤤- Chicago TribuneFebruary 11, 2015This spots falafel sandwich is very affordable and stuffed with hummus, falafel, and jerusalem salad. You can choose to get it mild, medium, or spicy and if you want to round out your meal. Read more
SarahMarch 24, 2018This salad bar is UNREAL here. So many options if you want to try new things. Definitely try the dolmades, pickled artichokes, hummus, huge chunks of feta, olives, falafel, shawarma, etc... So delish!
Best falafel in the city. Try a spicy falafel sandwich, or a meat pie, or some zatter bread. Also the best lentil soup on the planet. I mean honestly, everything here is top notch.
Chefs FeedApril 15, 2016Their food is very fresh and they offer a lot of vegetables and variations for your sandwich. I get it spicy with tomato, tabuli, Jerusalem salad, tahini, hummus, and sambal. Read more
Vladimir VagoMarch 7, 2015Everything, whatever you're in the mood for it has it from falafel's to meet platters meat pies spinach pies and a great selection of sauces they also have one on Clark Street I love both of
Serious EatsMay 13, 2013Two big pieces of falafel are chopped into large chunks and stuffed into a pita dripping with hummus in their falafel sandwich and heaped with house-made Jerusalem salad.
Shawerma is good but for rookies. If you want the best meal available get the egg and cheese fettia, lentil soup and vegan fig cookie with sesame seeds on top. And then stop eating meat altogether.- Great salad bar with a good selection of vegetables and other foods. Falafel and shawarma are never quite as fresh though.
Dominika HrabalovaOctober 28, 2021Everything we had was great. Try the salad bar for 6.99/lbs definitely worth it!!
Manoj AmbalavananJuly 16, 2020Lamb swarma + diet coke was to die for. Great combo for a perfect price point
Forrest GrantOctober 5, 2015Chicken swarma, chicken swarma, and chicken swarma!!! Must I say anymore. It's good

Sara StubblefieldSeptember 20, 2011BEST Falafel in the city, hands down!! not a bad price either! but cash only people, carry that cash!
Diego RufoMarch 29, 2011The best falafel and crazy cheap!! Don't miss the entire menu full of quality Middle Eastern eats. Read more
Bridget IsaiaFebruary 4, 2012Super cheap, dope salad bar. Not great chicken shawarma but they have these amazing cheese pies.
Lentil Soup is like crack, if crack were vegan good for you and full of protein!
Don't overlook the salad bar at first glance it's got quite the variety of fresh fixins & side dishes
the prices, freshness and efficiency make Sultan's one of the best take-outs in the hood
Best sandwiches in Wicker Park e-ver!!! Don't forget to add the tahini sauce:)
Lentil soup and vegetarian combo are delish! the vegan cookie is good too.
Best falafel in town. I also suggest you make it spicy. So good!
TJ DevoMarch 5, 2010Falafel - pita= nom! Been going here for years, though I think Pita Inn in Skokie is worlds better...cheaper too *shrugs*
