I've been working in Arcadia for 8 years and why oh why haven't I heard of this place before !!!!   Was just looking for good eats and saw a review of their chicken sandwiches..Wait ...what ..  I thought and decided to open up their menu and reviews ...  to my surprise all the reviews were saying how great everything on the menu was...  had to try !!!   So I walked in to this cutely decorated little restaurant and was greeted politely by a young gentleman..  asked for a fried chicken breast sandwich and macaroni salad ..  it was a to go order so he said to take a seat and offered me nice cold water to drink ..  waited about 7 min for my order and all I can say is "YUM"  super modify delicious and 10X better than Canes !!!!!   They had such a wide variety of different foods to choose from so it's not like other chicken places that only offer chicken..  was surprised the menu varied like it did and since the sandwich was so good I'd really like to try out other items ...  Go try this tasty little hidden gem ...  it's SO worth it !!!!! I can't wait to go back !!

On a Saturday afternoon in October, my brother wanted to have lunch here. It wasn't too busy at 11:30am and I ordered popcorn chicken with rice and salad while my brother and sister ordered chicken tender meals. This time we sat down to enjoy the ambiance. There was free water in the water jug and wait for our lunch. Then we met with the owner and checked on us. The popcorn chicken was good with rice and salad. It was fried nicely and taste like Taiwanese popcorn chicken. My sister enjoyed the chicken tenders, Next time I will try their new burger combo.

I have met my spicy food match!

The portions are so generous and the quality of the food is fantastic. My partner and I both got the 4 piece chicken strip meal, and we each had enough food for two days.

I asked for the "very spicy" level, and I was warned that the name isn't just for show. We got out order, and I could smell the spice level through the bag and I knew I was going to love it. They should rename the "very spicy" level to "oh, so you want spicy, huh?" because that's what it felt like, and I LOVED it!

My partner got no spice. The chicken strips in both our meals were huge and perfectly crispy and so juicy.

I can't wait to go back and try their other meals. The service was very friendly and welcoming.

For the prices here, you get much better food, and larger portions than compared to some of the fast food chicken strip places that are popping up nearby.

Don't skip this gem in Arcadia, you'll be glad you stopped by, especially if you love spicy food as much as I do.

Updated hours. Open till 8pm
Takes credit card
In a plaza with lots of parking

It used to be a sit down and fancy restaurant but the pandemic made them shut down and down size and change ideas. The owner is working the cashier and she cares alot about opinions.

Now serve fried chicken tenders with other Asian rice bowls.

New items are added to the menu

Waffle Fries- get this!! It's better and more crispy than chick fila a. Can order half $3.95 and full orders.

Fried chicken sandwich- $5.95. Can order hot style for an extra dollar. Huge chicken breast meat. Actually quite good. The meat is moist and tender. I would come back and get this again.

4 piece chicken tender combo $12.75: huge pieces of chicken breast deep fried. And a thousand island sauce. Comes with 2 sides. I chose vegetable roll and fries. The fries weren't special.

Customer service is excellent. Food is excellent.  Location and parking are excellent. What else could you ask for?  I have been multiple times for take out and sit down. Used their catering trays twice for events.  Kids and adults love their catering trays. The baked penne pasta and chicken bites are definite favorites, but I got a lot of great comments about the minced pork last time. 100% recommend if you are looking for great food daily or for events.

Not a local in the area but, I highly recommend Sesame Grill to everyone. I ordered their Fried Chicken Breast sandwich with extra lettuce, tomatoes and pickle. For the price I paid, it was well worth it! Great service, the staff are friendly and accommodating. Definitely coming back!!!

Me and my wife have been coming to this spot for a long time. Before the pandemic it was a fancy French fusion place that was our special occasion date night spot. Now it's a lot more casual but the food is still just as fantastic as it was then. Today I had their new fried chicken sandwich. It comes on a house made bun, house made sauce, pickles and a HUGE hand breaded chicken breast that's so juicy and delicious! Definitely the best chicken sandwich I've ever had! The staff there is super friendly as well. Can't recommend sesame grill enough!
