Open Sesame Grill - Long Beach

Running for more than 27 years, this family-owned spot leans on recipes rooted in generations of Lebanese cooking, prepared daily without cans, jars, or preservatives. The kitchen anchors the table with dishes like chicken tawook, shawarma, and French-cut lamb chops alongside falafel, tabbouleh, and garlic potatoes. Over the decades, it has served as an enduring neighborhood gathering place for families and friends across Long Beach and Los Angeles.
