Could come here to eat every day. So fresh so tasty and so delicious! you can create your own bowl with your own choice of base, protein, and veggies. Always so fun to go with your friends, family, and even work events! Highly recommend this restaurant.

Nice friendly staff, the concept was cool but the food wasn’t to our liking. I had the Pad Thai which was ok but super salty. I’ve eaten a lot of Pad Thai but felt that something as missing.

Awesome evening. I have loved this place for years. Our server Jeffrey was excellent. Very helpful and friendly. The food was great too.

Service was good. I had the hibachi steak, a dish I always order because in the past has been amazing. Tonight it was very sub par. The meal used to be served on a hibachi pan and this time it was not...the meal was luke warm- I hate that! I am diabetic and can't eat rice so I asked for a vegetable- they charged extra me for that! Funny how when you take a food off of the plate, they don't reduce your bill! The meat was tough, gristly and mediocre. The edamame was very tasty and served hot. For $40 I could have gone to an upscale steak joint and been very satisfied. I won't return. There are too many restaurants in the city that are more reliable and give me value for my money.

On the north side of the Smugglers building you'll find Open Sesame. We were fortunate that we went "Tuesday" which is the only day they offer ramen. It was delicious and a good size bowl with a tasty broth, FRESH noodles, egg, pork belly, vegetables and more. This bowl was packed with content. Ben walked us through the process and looked after us. Suffice it to say, we'll be back.

Food was ok, not horrible but not great. Server did not come back so we had to go find her to get another bowl as the one she gave us had old food stuck to it. Not sure If they were understaffed. Even if they were it sucks as the dining out is all about the experience...food and service.

The staff and food are excellent! It is really fun to take a guest who may then choose from a meat, vegetable or alternative options and make their own stirfry! Great service.

Love picking my own veggies and sauces. The sauce can be tricky to get right but just being able to add exactly which veggies you want is really cool.
I would like to start by saying that we have been here many times before; it has been a while and the experience has definitely gone way down hill. First of all, when we arrived at 5pm the restaurant was empty, there were only 2 other tables of people sitting. Our drink order was taken promptly and arrived quickly, we ordered an appetizer and our main dishes. We did the stir crazy, our bowls were brought out to us and we proceeded to build our concoctions. When we returned to our table our appy had arrived but it was wrong. It took my wife going to find the waiter in the empty restaurant 10 minutes later to get it corrected. 10 minutes after that our proper appy arrived. We sat after the appy for about 10-15 minutes waiting for our mains which had been sitting on the edge of the grill since we complained about the appy. Needless to say they were ice cold. The service just kept getting worse, water glasses sat empty drinks were not refilled. When the bill came there was no apology for the service no discount to the bill. I fully expect more from the smugglers group.

This is my wife's and my favorite place in the city. The atmosphere is warm and inviting and the staff is very friendly. The Go Stir Crazy, Build your own Stir Fry, allows you to get exactly what you want, and is a unique experience. The cooks prepare your meal perfectly after you've added your chosen toppings, vegetables and sauces. Great beer, wine and spirits selection.
We usually love this restaurant but this time was not excellent. They have changed their menu and the hibachi steak is not sizzling it's a plate of steak. Not as good as sizzling dish it used to be. Service was off they did not clear our plates between courses as they normally do. Have not tried any of the other items but they may be good. It's still a good place for nice atmosphere.

The food was delicious! Only wish they have more and different types of sauce and maybe add a little more meat and noodles to the bowl, but otherwise... DELICIOUS!!! Definitely will be returning for more.

I have been going here for years, this has become a regular stop. If you are reading this to make a decision to go her or not, stop reading here, fire up the car and get driving to open sesame. We have ordered almost everything off of the appetizer list here, there has not been a dish that I would stay clear of. Although my recommendations are the samosas, with the pineapple jelly. These are an always for myself, anytime I introduce them to new people, they are loved. As for dinner, I have to admit I have alway done the build your own stir fry, I have never ordered off of the menu. I am stuck in my ways and always order chicken and calamari, with white rice, and butter naan bread. If you are wondering how this works, you have to pick your protein you want, then you get to choose noodles, rices ect. Once you order this portion the restaurant then gives you a bowl, that you take to the vegetable bar/sauce bar. You fill you bowl up with numerous veggies and sauces, nothing like making your dinner to your liking, once your comfortable you have all the toppings you want you bring it to the chef who cooks it. I have never had a bad stir fry here. The only issue I have ever ran into, is that naan is 50/50, sometimes it’s great, others not. They seem to forget to butter it often, or it comes cold, but this is minor and I have choose to never complain. Dessert here is amazing, all I am going to say, is go for the chia cheesecake! You will not regret it! Staff are always pleasant and professional. Give it a shot.
