Open Sesame

If you're craving Lebanese food in the Dallas area, Open Sesame is a great spot! I went in the evening for a friend's birthday (party of about 12 people), and the service was quick and efficient. While the decor is minimal, the ambiance is still pleasant. I got the chicken shawarma, which was delicious, light, flavored, and beautifully seasoned. There's a small parking lot. Overall, I greatly enjoyed my experience at Open Sesame. The food is tasty, the prices are affordable, and it's definitely worth a try!

I ordered through Uber eats and was thoroughly impressed. The food was fresh and tasty and generous portions . I ordered the mixed grill for 3 and the chicken and steak was tender and flavorful. The rice was not overcooked and seasoned well. The Greek salad and hummus were fresh . The pita I think was homemade as well. I willBe adding this to my rotation

We visited Open Sesame Lebanese Grill for a Friday night dinner with friends, and the experience was a mixed bag. We ordered the Ultimate Mix Grill, which is advertised as being for two people, but the portion size was quite small - definitely not enough for two. It took over 30 minutes for our food to arrive, which was a bit disappointing. However, the food itself was delicious, and the flavors were spot on, which made up for some of the waiting time.Overall, it was an okay experience. The food was tasty, but next time, we'll likely order additional plates to ensure we have enough to share.

AMAZING, JUICY, FLAVORFUL FOOD! Got the shish tawook and chicken shawarma combo and I think this may be one of the most tasty Mediterranean places I've ever had. Large portions, good value. The place was packed even on a Tuesday night despite lots of tables! Worth every penny. Would definitely come back.

Best lebenese chicken shawarma. Theres not that many lebenese style shawarma in the hill country area so i thoroughly enjoyed it. Cant wait to come back to try other items.

Tried this place on my trip to Dallas. I started off with red wine. For food I ordered Hummus and Veggie Grape Leaves. Food was delicious. The appetizers were served with some pickle which was tasty as well.The servers were super polite and attentive. The ambiance was decent.As it's located in a plaza so there is enough parking spots.I would highly recommend this place! MUST TRY!!

Lots of construction in front of the store right now, but the food was worth it!! Excellent tasting chicken, hummus, and salad! The prices are very low as well!

Absolutely love this place and foresee this being in my short list for affordable comfort foods. I just ate here with a friend who has a high bar for Middle Eastern cuisine and we both absolutely loved it. The hummus is delicious and I would definitely recommend to try to warak enab as well. Portions are quite large for what you're paying for. Service was really friendly and patient as well. The restaurant is kind of hidden and tucked away but is a great place to meet someone for lunch. I've also had a very positive experience ordering delivery via Uber Eats. Definitely recommend checking this place out

It's been long over due for this review, so here it is! First and foremost, the ambiance, I mean come on. A hole in the wall that is welcoming, fast service, plays great music and elegant? Can't be beat. The most important part about this place for me though, is that it brings me back to the family home I left in California. The food, the care, the hospitality, the overall vibe. You're always greeted with the upmost politeness which is always important upon arrival for guests. The food, I can't even begin to express how much I love. My partner and I have been going here for a month (very often throughout those 31 days). We tend to be on the look out for hole in wall restaurants/food joints and when we came here we knew it was going to be a Sunday and Thursday ritual. Especially for the coffee and tea after church. I've tried a majority of things on the menu (as well as my partner) and everything is flavorful. The labneh is our favorite, the pita is crisp, yet soft and luscious. The lamb is tender, juicy, and the herbs that are oiled and grilled throughout pair perfectly with the delicate and light rice they serve. The chicken is cooked and dressed to perfection and the juices absorb straight into the pita if you get it wrapped (please do, it's incredible and the best shawarma I've had in Texas). You quite literally, can't go wrong with any item off their menu. 10/10The service is fast, friendly and they are always up for small good conversation; if it's not busy of course. Being more than a guest and having a relationship with the employees is always great. Thanks so much Open Sesame for the food and spectacular service. Yalla habibi!

1. Ultimate Mix Grill - perfect amount of food for two. Very tasty sides and the meats were delicious and tender. 2. Service - Good service. The lady was sweet and calm. 3. Ambiance - It is a very cozy and elegant restaurant. We went for dinner around 4 pm and almost half the tables were busy. 4. Baklava - a must!
