Al Sultan Restaurant

Mayfair based Al Sultan, is a traditional Lebanese restaurant where you really do require a healthy appetite to fully appreciate all there is on offer. The list of starters varies from classic houmous and tabouleh, to delicious grilled halloumi and lentils cooked with rice to name but a few. With so many hot and cold starters the meze option is certainly an inviting route to take. However, on the main course menu there's a choice of charcoal grill dishes such as skewered chicken with garlic, lemon juice and olive oil, or tasty lamb kebabs. There's also a selection of seasonal fish options and a dish of the day such as roast lamb with rice or aubergine and courgette stuffed with minced meat and rice, cooked in a rich tomato sauce. Expect to pay around £10 per main course.
