Sesame House

Reviews & Tips

  I can't keep up with this place. It's opened at least three times in the past two or three years. Inside, it's rather pleasant, for a strip mall dining establishment. There's a mix of tables and booths. It seems reasonably clean, and the food is half a notch above your typical Chinese takeout -- but it's also a bit more expensive.
  
  What worries me is the frequency with which the establishment has changed hands and/or management, and the irregularity of the quality of service.
  
  Frankly, while the food is marginally superior, I prefer Happy House across the street. It's less expensive, consistent, and clearly a more stable operation. But YMMV.

  Sesame House has closed.  Their very poor service likely caught up to them.  It has reopened under new owners, not sure of the name, but the menu is "heavy" on sushi and sashimi.

  The food is a couple steps above your typical Chinese restaurant, which is why I've dined here three times already, but the restaurant is understaffed and there was a lot of confusion each time we ordered.  
  
  It took about 30 minutes to get our drinks and another 15-20 for the food, but once the dishes started coming out of the kitchen, we had a nice meal.  However, when we asked for plates, we received what looked like tea cup saucers.  Chinese tapas anyone?
  
  I believe that I was dining in while the previous reviewer was waiting a long time for his take out.  He was not the only frustrated take out customer that night.
  
  Once the staff can hire help and iron out their service problems, Sesame House would be my go-to Chinese restaurant in the area.  If they last that long.

  The food is decent - seems fresh and prepared to order however the service always leaves something to be desired.  They always seem understaffed and this means you're going to end up waiting.  Even for carry out - they say "ready in 15 minutes" yet it reality it's really 30 minutes or more.
