" Once again, Open Sesame has impressed me with its fantastic dishes! We ordered a variety of items, and every one of them was full of flavor. It's always difficult to pick a favorite. The service was friendly, though there were moments the staff appeared a bit rushed. Despite that, the atmosphere maintained its charm, and we truly felt like we'd found a hidden gem. Can't recommend it enough! " (*Curated Review*)

" We had a family dinner at Open Sesame Grill and it was memorable! The lamb was perfectly cooked and the desserts were the cherry on top. Service was excellent, and our server was delightful—always making sure we had what we needed. The atmosphere was lively yet comfortable, making it a great spot for family gatherings. " (*Curated Review*)

" Delicious! The kabobs at Open Sesame Grill are out of this world. The seasoning was spot on. My only complaint was it took a while for our food to arrive, possibly due to the fact it was quite busy. However, the friendly service made up for it. The restaurant itself was bustling with a lively atmosphere but still cozy enough to enjoy a meal with good company. " (*Curated Review*)

" I always have an incredible experience at Open Sesame Grill. The food is flavorful; their baba ganoush and fresh pita are must-tries. The service is almost always quick and attentive, though I have faced longer waits during peak times. Still, I wouldn’t trade their amazing food for anything! Highly recommended if you love authentic Lebanese cuisine! " (*Curated Review*)

" I highly recommend Open Sesame Grill for anyone looking to indulge in Middle Eastern cuisine! The vibrant flavors and fresh ingredients are sure to cater to any palate. We ordered several dishes to share, and I must say, the shawarma stole the show! Can't wait for my next visit to explore more of the menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" What an experience! Open Sesame Grill serves up some of the best Lebanese food I've ever had. Our group tried a variety of dishes, including hummus, falafel, and shawarma. Everything was exquisitely prepared! The only downside was that it was a bit crowded, and we had to wait for a table, but it was well worth it. The portions were generous, making it great for sharing. Can’t wait to bring more friends when we visit again! " (*Curated Review*)

" Our recent dinner at Open Sesame Grill exceeded our expectations! The menu featured a wonderful selection of traditional Lebanese dishes. I opted for their lamb chops and they were cooked to perfection, tender and juicy. The service was attentive and friendly without being overbearing. Just a lovely evening overall. I will certainly return! " (*Curated Review*)
