This is a show worth seeing. Not only do you get great music and wonderful dancing the food is very filling and has something for everyone. My girlfriend and I really enjoyed this place. I have seen other shows featuring Oriental dance in the past but this one offers far more and it's so much greater when you can see... more

I've expected much more from belly dancers, in fact, only one girl was great, the other two were awfull. The first one is 100% gogo dance girl, with all tatoos, and sillicones, and after the show she collects the money?!?!? Atmosphere was sad overall, interior is old and ruined, food is very bad, only traditional dancers were very good and... more

Dear buljy, We don't have any "gogo" girls working as belly dancers. There is no such thing as money collection, only voluntary tips given by our customers to belly dancers. It's part of the belly dancing culture to have impressed spectators tuck money into their costumes, usually while the dancer is on stage. We're disappointed you didn't enjoy your night...

The pick up and drop off at the hotel is nice. I am very adventurous with food and enjoyed other kinds of domestic cuisine while I was Turkey but the food at the show wasn't very good. I don't know if they changed the menu or what, but I could see that many other guests didn't touch some of the... more

I really enjoyed the evening at Sultana’s. As soon as you walk in the décor takes your breath away. The table service was A1 and many friendly faces make the evening a perfect send off for any visitor to Istanbul. The food was delicious and very fresh, the best Turkish food I tasted during my stay!! Sultana’s comes highly recommended... more

We liked the show. It was going on and on and lasted the entire dinner. The piano guy is great -- he'll play and sing in any language! It's nice to be picked up and dropped off at your hotel -- makes it for a pleasant evening more

We decided to go to the Sultana night to see what a Turkish night had to offer, big mistake. To start with the journey there took over an hour due to picking everyone up which was ok but not great especially since it was only a 15min journey. As soon as we got there we were greeted by the smell... more

I recently went to Sultana's with some friends and had a great time, the best parts were the delicious food and equally delicious belly dancers! the waiters were also very attentive and friendly. Thank you Sultana't for a great night, I highly recommend this place for all travellers. more

I attended Sultana's with a group of friends and we went for the set menu that included three course dinner and two drinks (beer or wine) per person. Overall, the place itself is nice, the show was a bit on the cheesy side but good fun nonetheless. Some good belly dancers. Great traditional dancing and the audience participation piece was... more

Thank you for your review, Ballynac. It's a huge shame that you paid a visit to Sultana's right before our new chef commenced work, but we've noted your comments nonetheless. To the information of other travellers; the Deluxe Menu offers a far richer selection than the Fixed Menu mentioned in this review.
