Open Sesame Lebanese Grill - Mediterranean restaurant in Dallas - 2615 Oak Lawn Ave, USA

I ordered a beef shish-kabob with hummus and tabbouleh on the side. The fist thing out was some warm pita bread with olive oil and dipping spices along with a plate with pickled items and olives. Very flavorful and authentic. When my order arrived, it was beautifully presented and a very generous amount. The beef was tender, it could have been a little more seasoned but I know this type of meat isn't usually spicy. The hummus was awesome with a drizzle of olive oil and perfectly blended and seasoned. The tabbouleh was also very good with the expected hint of lemon juice. The service was okay but she was not overly friendly and kept her interactions to one word. A smile would have been nice. The restaurant was clean and so were the bathrooms. If you like Mediterranean or Lebanese food, try this place.

Really one of the best food place in town, it gives you the cozy feeling with the restaurant being small but powerful food. Really really good place!

Stopped here for the first time yesterday. Everything from food to drink was excellent. Loved our hummus and shawarma. Lebanese wine selection is excellent. Looking forward to coming back to try more. Several gluten free options for those that need it. Highly recommend supporting a local business like this that is authentic in the flavors with great service.

Nice Lebanese restaurant near Oaklawn and Cedar Springs. Pretty server. The food was delicious. In my opinion, the baba ghanoush and hummus was flavorless. My favourite part was the falafel hands down the best thing on the menu. I got the mixed combo with lamb tawook, chicken tawook, and beef kabob (kofta). The meats were all juicy and filling, just felt like it was flat on the seasoning side. The only negative was the bread wasn’t good at all, it was cold and hard when it got to me. I liked the olive oil & zatar (oregano) combo that comes with every meal. Would come back to give it another shot.

Really loved the food. Took my wife and son paid $63.00 for 3 people. We all came out stuffed and really pleased with the food. Will definately come back some time soon

Food was good, however, When you have so many options to choose from, why choose a restaurant that has bad service. The server took 15 minutes to take our order after we were seated. She was talking with her friends. It was not a busy day. This attention to detail makes this place less favorable, go elsewhere.

It was as if I'd never had Chicken Shawarma or Tabbouleh until I had it at this place. House made pickles, olives, red onions combined with the aromatic herbs they serve with olive oil and fresh pita at the table. The garlic paste/dip they serve on the side of every meal would make any Greek restaurant envious. Definitely a hole in the wall gem to visit if you enjoy Lebanese style food.

1st and last time im coming here. It started as good. Waiter was prompt ad got our order quick. We ordered beef kabob and mixed grill. The amount of food was decent size. Food needs a little more seasoning. Then come the check. Mixed grill as 18 and beef kabob was 16. We were charged 23 and 21. I asked why is the charge incorrect compared to the price as listed in the menu. We were told since we ordered 2 extra side. Nothing in the menu indicated its extra. Lessons learned. Be careful when ordering those extra sides specially when it says choice of 2 sides.
