I was in Dickinson today and looked for a good local place to have lunch. We have no good Chinese food in Galveston, so I really wanted some. I chose well. The restaurant is clean and well organized. It's very simple, not much of ambiance. Tile floor, simple tables, good lighting. Maybe it's different at night. I ordered one of my favorite things that I can never seem to find: chinese style spare ribs. Those were excellent. I got an order of pork fried rice (fair) and an egg roll (also excellent). I really enjoyed the meal. It was just the right amount of food for me. I chose an iced tea to drink. The service was great and so was the price. Food and tax came to $18 something. I should have gotten something to go. I want more! read more

August 21, 2026 Was in town for haircut and wanted Asian food...from the reviews I thought it would be good...WISH I had chosen somewhere else Kung Pao chicken and a shrimp curry entree with pork fried rice, kids meal was sweet/sour chicken, sesame balls and macarons Kung Pao chicken was NOT spicy at all which was disappointing. Kung Pao (anything) is a spicy stir-fry dish because of the Sichuan sauce and chili peppers; this dish had neither. It's like they threw in peanuts and called it a day. Threw most of it away; waste of money Curry shrimp was supposed to be yellow curry flavor but this looks to be green, no? Definitely not yellow. Nice size whole shrimp not small frozen ones but minimal curry taste and NOT yellow curry. Tragic. Egg rolls were huge and tasty Wonton broth had NO flavor, but big wontons. Hot-sour soup? Threw it away Sweet and sour chicken (kids menu) was meh The macarons are made in house; I got 4 flavors: Nutella, fruity pebbles, blueberry-lemon and birthday cake The only one that was soft, chewy and tasty was the blueberry lemon...the rest crunchy. Sesame balls were a bit greasy, overcooked but tasted ok 1 star ONLY... Do NOT recommend read more

My favorite place ever to get pho. I don't eat beef so I don't get the traditional beef broth. I love that they offer a vegan broth made of mushroom and it is so delicious and flavorful. They were closed for the holidays in December until the first week of January and I was finally able to go get some pho. The only thing I don't like about this place is that they're only open a few days a week but the food is always delicious. read more

We went by or drove by. We really enjoy the food here as we have been eating at this since 2008 or before. We just have a feeling that they are way out. Closed sat. ,sun, mon. ?? No restaurant that wants to stay in business can be closed these three days in my book. We have been more disappointed by not finding them open than anything else...someone make me understand!! read more

Raw egg rolls. This place used to be great. But the past 4 or 5 times we ordered from there, anything fried is almost burnt on the outside and hard to chew (I.e., crab puffs).. This is my first experience with a raw egg roll and it not pleasant. read more

I have eaten food from this restaurant several times in the past and it has always been very good. However, I ordered the cashew chicken today and it was flavorless. I tried adding salt, but that did not help. The only thing that tasted good were the snap peas that I asked to be added to my order. The wonton soup was good. Very disappointed! read more

The food is absolutely delicious. I love that I can also get macaroons. With different flavors, as well as pho

One year later after I discovered this gem of a place and still is my favorite spot to get my comfort food. My favorites are the Chicken Pho- broth is super tasty! Vietnamese egg rolls- sooo good! Vietnamese rice plates- pork, chicken, beef, you name it I love all 3! pork dumplings-gotta have them pan fried! Don't forget your iced Vietnamese coffee! Super strong and super good! Food is always piping hot and fresh. read more

Easy to place an order, friendly service, fast and accurate and vegan friendly, which is not easy to come by in this area. A little pricey, but I ordered a lot of food. read more

This place was really good. They did get my order wrong but I was so hungry I ate what they gave me. I would have loved to try what I actually ordered so I will go back and try again. The cashier was so kind and friendly and that beats anything. The food was hot and fresh but again I got something I didn't order. I didn't want to complain because the young lady in the drive through was so kind. I will try again one day. read more

Great service, friendly staff, and consistently good quality and portions. Can't ask for much more!

This is our new favorite go-to local Chinese place. Everyone needs a good Chinese takeout spot, and this one is it for my family. Great food, reasonably priced, kind service, fast, and great selection. We especially loved the Thai tea and the sesame balls! read more

This was our first time eating these sesame balls. These are so tasty like beignets or little fresh doughnuts. They have a slightly sweet red bean paste in the center like Japanese mochi. We also tried the pan-fried noodles which have an AMAZING texture. Similar to a freshly prepared pot pie with warm mushroom sauce and veggies. The other noodle dish is Singapore noodles - a classic curry seasoned favorite of ours. You really can't go wrong with @eatsesamehouse. So nice, we tried it twice! #veganfood @whatweeatUS read more

In my initial review, I mused how the Vietnamese dishes here should be given a try. It turns out my nearly one-year long wait to come back here -- Harvey happened -- was worth it. The restaurant was unfortunately inundated by floodwaters of the aforementioned Harvey, but is back better than ever. It's brighter and more spacious inside. There's benches with pillows against the wall, which I thought was pretty clever. So the food. When it comes to baseline Vietnamese, I usually go for a grilled pork rice plate. The rice was nicely cooked, the meat was amazingly tender and marinated, and the diced up egg rolls provided a good reason to use chopsticks. The steamed pork dumplings, which I believe are new to their post-storm menu, were a great way to start a meal. Ergo, dinner here was fantastic! I'm sure glad Sesame House is back in business. And it's safe to say they stepped their culinary game up. read more

This restaurant is a hidden gem. Service was great. The three meat birds nest that my wife had was two meals and delicious. I had the veggie steamed dumplings perfect. Then their black pepper tofu that was out of this world in taste. Clean nice dining area. read more

This is a family owned and operated establishment. Sesame House has been a staple for great food and service for many years. The quality of food is excellent with a lot of choices. I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone who wants great food and great service. read more

My family visited Sesame House at the suggestion of a friend. We had the veggie dumplings and crab cheese puffs to start. Didn't notice any crab only cream cheese in the puffs. Both were tasty. The chow fun noodles were good but plain (just noodles, chicken and bean sprouts), didn't realize that you had to pay extra for broccoli. The Vermicelli bowls were on par. Overall, not bad. Not sure we'd go back. Food was overpriced in relation to the portion. read more

We were so hungry when we got there and forgot to take photos of other dishes we had. But I'm glad everything that was on our table was sooo good! I was so full afterwards! I saw a steady stream of customers and noticed they were just as happy with there dining experience as well as with their food. read more

This place is consistently amazing, been here multiple times I wish I lived closer! Some of my favorites Orange Chicken, Singapore Noodle 10/10 - read more

The food is so fresh and not overly sweet like a lot of Chinese food places. They have great customer service and are always friendly.

I LOVE THIS RESTAURANT! If my husband would allow me, I'd eat here every week. The food is amazing, the service is top notch. I literally have no complaints about this place. The shaking beef is what dreams are made of. Thanks for being such an amazing restaurant! read more

Good is delicious and owners are friendly. Service is fast and very nice place to dine in

We went for lunch based on the great reviews. I opted for a vermicelli bowl with pork, springrolls, all was really delicious and fresh. My brother opted for a beef Vietnamese entree. He said it was pretty good. I eyed what others were eating-mainly Chinese it seemed but all looked good and they all seemed happy. Service was fine, young ladies are friendly. Ambiance is ok, kind of a small tucked away place with the basics in decor. Definitely want to go back and try some other options. read more

Just pulled up at 7:28pm. Waitstaff flipped the "Closed" sign as we were walking to the door?

Highly recommend! We were housesitting in the area and went in for takeaway. Annie waited on us and was very friendly and professional. We loved the food!! We went back 2 weeks later and Annie remembered us, the beers we had while waiting and what we ordered. Again the food was delish! Anytime we're in town we will make sure to go back. read more

Had hubby pick up some to go food items for dinner since I had heard so many of our friends loving this place. It did not disappoint. I posted pics of all our to go items and they were all delicious. My favorite where the fried Vietnamese egg rolls and the general tsos chicken. Very fresh and piping hot. The only thing I think they could improve would be maybe some more sauce or a bit more flavor to the lomein. Just needs a little extra ooomph. Other than that, this place is solid and I would order from here again for sure and try out some other items. read more

We've been coming here for years. Food has always been good and service great. However, in past 2 years I've noticed a decline in the quantity of food given and prices going up. Now, they are charging extra for little things when they used to not charge. Went the other day for lunch and was very disappointed with the quantity. A small scoop of rice and small portion of the entree. I know times are hard but when I'm paying almost $35 for three lunch entrees I'd expect more food. read more

Looking for place to eat lunch ran across this place and tried it. Glad I did and will continue to eat here regularly. Had house special lunch with egg drop soup and egg roll, didn't have rice or noodles because I eat as few carbs as possible but everything I ate was very delicious, can't wait to try the Pho next time I come read more

The atmosphere is very soothing and the staff is extremely nice and attentive. I look forward to more visits to this nice lil cafe when I'm in the Dickinson/Santa Fe Area. Food is really good as well. Not like the typical chinese fusion restaurants. I definitely recommend this place. read more

Sesame House is so consistently amazing that it's ruined all other Chinese/Vietnamese restaurants for me. If I didn't live all the way in Pearland, I'd shamelessly eat here multiple days in a row. I find myself going through withdrawals if I haven't visited for a long period of time. I've been here at least thirty times now and I've never had a bad meal or experience. The food is ALWAYS delicious and tastes like they use the freshest ingredients. I don't know how they've turned something as simple as sesame chicken into a culinary masterpiece, but they have. The family that owns and runs the restaurant are so friendly and personable too! read more

Their food tastes delish and freshly made. I ordered take out. The order was done well. Eggrolls were crunchy not oily and tasted delicious too. The orange chicken had good chicken pieces unlike other places where the pieces are nothing but batter. Chicken veggie was good too. read more

Wonderful service & tasty, well-priced food. I would highly recommend the sesame chicken! Will be returning soon :)

This is the ONLY place you should get Vietnamese/Chinese food in South Houston. The Diep family is wonderful and the service here is unmatched -- you will not find more caring and considerate people. We LOVE everything on the menu. We followed Mrs. Winnie (the chef) from her work place to this place she opened with her family and have not been disappointed. We love and recommend the wonton soup, pork spring rolls, Vietnamese egg rolls, General Tso's chicken and special fried rice. Don't forget to try a macaron (they are all delicious) and a Cafe Sua Da for dessert. Everything is delicious. We will always come back here. Love it!! read more

Always liked going there since the food was always fresh and delicious. Ordered General Tso Chicken on a Friday night. Chicken was not fresh but was tough and hard like it was cooked hours ago and then they put it in my meal. Used to be food was cooked with pride. Prices go up and quality have gone down. Your local and have been a Dickinson original staple good food restaurant. I will think twice before going there again. Very very disappointing. Still recommend because I don't want to see you loss your customers, but in the words of Joe Biden, " Come on man ." read more

We have been enjoying meals here for over 20 years. We have tried many items on the menu and they are all really good. In the last few years we have moved to their Pho's and Vermicelli bowl's which we feel for us to be very healthy. The staff has always been very friendly and helpful with their service. read more

Food is always excellent, friendly family owned business. Prices are reasonable and portions are generous! I love Sesame House and have been eating here for 5+ years now. My favorite is their house fried rice and General Tso's chicken! Please give this place a visit especially during this unprecedented time. They are currently offering delivery and takeout options! read more
