Open Sesame Reviews
I've been here a few times and Mario is the man who runs it. Authentic Mediterranean and Lebanese food. It's not spicy but delicious.
Ordered the falafel plate (without feta) and an extra pita (because I like carbs) via Uber Eats to my hotel room. The grilled pita was soft, warm, and delicious. The falafel was decent, not the best I've ever had. I wish it had a little more hummus on it. The salad it came with was tasty; I liked the dressing.
Overall, it hit the spot and I wanted another one as soon as I was done.

The service was great and the atmosphere seemed authentic. The place was clean. Each dish is around $20 and for that price it should be a little more impressive than it was. This is basically just a sit down street food spot. I left the restaurant feeling like they did the bare minimum of middle eastern cuisine. Probably won’t go back for those prices.

Open Sesame is a beautiful and enchanting restaurant with outstanding service. The atmosphere is perfect for an intimate dinner, and the decor sets a relaxing vibe. The combo rice platter is delicious and worth every penny, and the Open Sesame cocktail is strong and flavorful. The staff is friendly and efficient, making the dining experience even more enjoyable. Though the prices may seem high, the quality and taste of the food make it worth it. Whether you're there for a quick meal or a special date night, Open Sesame is definitely a spot to visit again. Recent reviews mention that the place is clean and has an authentic atmosphere, though some feel the dishes are just average for the price, comparing it to a sit-down street food spot. The falafel plate (without feta) with extra pita was enjoyed by one guest, who found the grilled pita soft and tasty, though the falafel was not the best they've had. Overall, dining here offers a good experience where the location, atmosphere, hospitality, and food blend to create a memorable visit.
