Al Sultan
About Al Sultan
Just off Shepherd’s Market, Al Sultan is a small, beautifully run Lebanese that has attracted couples and families for absolute yonks. The Middle Eastern restaurant traditions, white linen, flowers, mirrors and snappy service are all in evidence here, but even if Al Sultan weren’t quite so
inviting the food would still win a loyal following. Our absolute favourite thing to do is bring half a dozen friends and order every starter we can lay our hands on. Let the feast begin. Hommos shawarma with lamb and pine nuts is great, so are the Falafel, and Kallaje, the Kibbeh, and Fattouch and the
Moutabal, but those who know say the Tabouleh is truly great. The wine list is an absolute winner, too.
