Sesami Chicken Flavor Bomb- BBQ chicken, brown rice, bean sprouts, grilled zucchini, house pickles, sautéed mushrooms, corn, green sauce
Ben L.

I always love supporting local businesses, especially in areas that are run by chains. I found this place on Yelp and visited with a couple of friends since we were in the area and we were all impressed with what we got. The restaurant is like a modern take on Asian comfort food meets the convenience and modern adaptation of a rice bowl. The first thing I noticed about the food, they aren't stingy with the portions at all, the portions were huge! I also, really appreciated how the food had an emphasis on being healthier, I thought my bowl had a ton of healthy veg even the apps, which were fried, didn't taste heavy or greasy at all. Often times, I really hate when I eat something fried and feel like death afterwards, I didn't get that feeling here at all. The food: Night Market Chicken- Taiwanese style popcorn chicken seasoned with 5 spice served with Sriracha aioli. Oh god are these addictive! They are like a little Asian version of chicken nuggets, these were so juicy and had so much flavor. This was my fav app. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=B-KoANk97-0L1VWM9AT-8w&userid=Y_iTTjKvV5hLy-880SZzlA Sesami Tots- Tater tots, yellow corn, edamame, carrots, black beans, cheddar cheese, green sauce, Sriracha aioli. If you ever go to a restaurant and there is a dish that is named after the restaurant, you order that dish! I thought the tots were great, they were nicely fried and I thought all the fixins made so much sense. So much different tastes and textures, it's also fun to eat. Crispy Chicken Dumplings- Juicy chicken and veggie dumplings served with sesami dumpling sauce. I thought these were made well, not super exciting but definitely solid. Sesami Chicken Flavor Bomb- BBQ chicken, brown rice, seasoned bean sprouts, grilled zucchini, house pickles, sautéed mushrooms, yellow corn, green sauce, nori and crunchy shallots. Jesus Christ there was so much food! I thought this bowl was great, nice crunchy veg with juicy and flavorful chicken with brown rice. I actually couldn't finish this and had enough for a second meal. This was the first item on the menu and for good reason, it was delicious. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=wXI_y9TJi1AoMt7zvKUI3g&userid=Y_iTTjKvV5hLy-880SZzlA

Sesami offers fast, casual cuisine featuring Chinese, Korean, Japanese and Vietnamese flavors. This small corner restaurant is at 1531 W Wynnewood Road in Ardmore. I tried the Sesame Tots, Vegetable Spring Roll, and Make Your Own Bowl. Loved the crispy spring roll and spiced tofu. I wouldn't get the soggy sesame tots again.

Going to the gym on Tuesday and Thursday I pass this little corner place all the time. I decided to stop in to my surprise it was cute inside and the seating outside is great too. The manager and staff were polite and service was fast. I got there at 11:25am even tho they open at 11:30am but they were ready for me to order. I was so excited to try the teas out which they had 2 one green and one black. To my surprise they came in a cute reusable cup. I created my bowl and it was delicious the dressing was perfect. So vibrant in color and organized and layered perfect. The only reason I didn't give it a 5 star is I wish it had more tea flavors and or boba tea also kid friendly options too. But if you pass by def stop by they even have shirts you can buy. I did not try the juice box which is tea but can't wait to later today.

It was like an explosion of flavor in my mouth!!!! I love that you could create your own bowl like you were at one of those Chipotle restaurants. I ended up with pork and rice, toppings as well. Everything just went together. Fresh ingredients as well. Two different sauces as well. They give about 4 to choice from! I also ordered an iced tea Jasmine flavor. Which was perfectly sweetened.

Finally something good has taken over the old J&G Deli! I didn't care for the previous 2 establishments that was here before Sesami came here. Tiffany is an amazing intuitive employee who helped me decide what I wanted. Davis is the chef who has skills! These guys are going to do very good here with these creative bowls. It's like the perfect 1,2 combination, the dynamic duo basically. Yes the rest of the staff kick ass, and I was not going to leave them out. The bowl I went with was the All meat , no greens dish, but I added kimchi to it which brought this to a whole different level of winning. I'm a carnivore, and this just spoke to me, simply biblical I tried their Sesami Tots and their crispy chicken dumplings on their munchies . Just order it ! You're welcome, no need to thank me for that pro tip. So what I'm trying to say is get in here and just enjoy a meal or two, or three. Obviously you've seen I've been back several times. Review over, now to these tots I've neglected.

Wow!! Had been dying to try this place after hearing how fantastic it was from friends and even with all the hype I was not disappointed. I did a make your own bowl with 5 veggies (shiitake,kimchi, zucchini, edamame and broccoli), rice, chicken and 2 sauces (ginger sauce and sriracha). Finally garnished with seeds, nori, and shallots! It's similar to chipotle and cava where you pick your base, meat, toppings etc. that said portions are way bigger and quality of food better! 1000% recommend and will definitely be returning when in the area

Been waiting for a modern Asian street food place in H-town and finally Sesami is here. Korean bim bim bowls all fresh and made to order with your choice of protein, probiotic veggies and home made sauces in 10 minutes! My regular is the spicy grilled pork and second choice spicy grilled chicken. I also add the crunch puffed tofu for texture. Brown rice , white jasmine rice or spinach as your base - all good. You still need a cheese steak and fast food burger fix once in a while but if you want healthy fresh food check out Sesami.

During this pandemic, I've definitely had more mood swings from my withdrawal of foodie cravings. It's been a battle of weighing financial costs yet supporting local businesses... "oh I really want this, but oh I need to be smart with my money spending, but oh the local businesses need our support, and oh I'm just really hungry and dont want to cook, treat yourself". 99% of the time, I'll have to confess my cravings wins, but hey it's for the local good, right? (Justifying my wants vs need is something I'm notorious for when it comes to food, or so I'm told) So no surprise, craving comes knocking at the door and I was feeling a hearty rice bowl with a healthy balance of protein and veggies. Sesami has been on my radar for quite some time, but a good 30 minute from where I live. Wasnt sure if it was gonna be worth it, but they fit the description of what I wanted perfectly, so why not? And it was their grand opening! Thank the Lord, I was hangry on the drive there but my belly gave a thousand thanks when I finally got my hand on a bowl! (Order ahead of time) Pros: - customization; create your own if there are particular food aversions or allergies, or cravings to tailor to your taste. - great pricing, and your bowl is stacked to the brim - vibrant colors from the veggies and sauce, super appetizing. - flavorful marinated meat and veggies, distinct in it their own representation individually yet harmonizes well when mixed together as a dish. Recommend any of the meat, tofu, mushrooms/shitake, broccoli, purple cabbage, cucumber. - get the sesami tots! So good. - light, hits the spot well, not heavy and excessive in oil or sodium taste - their homemade tea is super refeshing and not overly sweet at all - great friendly staff and service Cons: - sadly we couldn't dine in due to covid but the interior looked beautiful , we did see outdoor benches though - the nori "seaweed" topping is not what I expected like the sesame oil crunch one you get in Japanese restaurants, but it had a dried thick tougher crunch texture like I was eating the algae itself. I wasn't a big fan of that due to the fishier taste, but that's a personal preference - spinach as a topping was a big no no for me. It wasnt specially prepared or anything like I expected, just .... raw spinach on the side. Meh. - but worse of all, writing this makes me want to go back soon for another bowl! All in all, I cant wait to go back to try again. Just saw they posted about popcorn chicken too now (small fried pieces of juicy chicken basically) !

Create your own bowl: purple rice, bugolgi, broccoli, edamame, braised black beans, carrots

After a long awaited delay after their soft opening due to the pandemic, my wife and I drove out just to pick up lunch. And we were not disappointed - not that we expected anything less than delicious food. They've upped their game, making tweaks and improvements that seriously makes it one of the best places to get food in the area.

Celebrated a birthday dinner here for the first time. The service was great and the atmosphere is…read morevery nice. They have free valet as well, which I wasn't expecting. The best recommendations: edamame dumplings, grapefruit lychee martini, scallop & risotto entree, mushroom pad Thai, and the cheesecake. The sushi was extremely fresh and delicious! We ordered many different rolls-- All great. The Pink Lady roll (special) was delicious. Adding a jalapeño inside would have been the perfect balance with the mango. I ordered the shrimp & beef entree, which was marked as spicy but not spicy at all. I wish it had more flavor, but the vegetables stole the show. Would come back!

Nectar is a standout on the Main Line--modern, stylish, and always a little bit of an experience…read more The space itself is gorgeous, with its high ceilings, warm lighting, and sleek, Asian-inspired design that sets the tone for a special night out. The food is consistently impressive. Sushi is fresh and beautifully presented, and the menu offers a nice balance of creative Asian fusion dishes with familiar crowd-pleasers. The Peking duck and lobster fried rice are delicious, and the cocktails are equally well-crafted. Service is generally very good. It can get busy, and sometimes things move a bit slower than you'd expect given the price point. Speaking of price, it's definitely on the higher end, but the quality and atmosphere usually make it feel worth the splurge. Perfect for date nights, celebrations, or when you want something a little more upscale than the usual Main Line options. Nectar doesn't disappoint.
