Excellent resto. Le service du midi est rapide & courtois. Jai adoré le serveur francais qui etait souriant & qui prenait le temps de nous expliquer le menu. La salle est par contre bruyante. Excellent pad thai & soupe en entree. Prix tres raisonnable pour la qualité. Je recommande ++

I recently had lunch at the Oriental restaurant & enjoyed a delicious Pad Thai with shrimp & a delightful papaya salad. The service was excellent, & the ambiance was perfect for a relaxing meal. I highly recommend this restaurant for a satisfying lunch experience.

Now open on Monday The 5 to 7 offer are great for small bites Tried the bloody sesame cocktail, it came with a chicken bite & a prawn chips. Perfect appetiser ! The dumpling were good as well as the small thai soup, tangy & sweet. The salmon poke was spicy & generous with salmon (especially for the 5-7 price) The pad Thai was vibrant & full of flavours. You can trust sesame restaurant for the quality of their food !

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Sesame, a restaurant in Montreal, & I must say, it was a truly remarkable experience. After a frustrating night of searching for a wheelchair-accessible restaurant, we stumbled upon Sesame, & it turned out to be a hidden gem.

From the moment we entered, our server, Suf, greeted us with a warm smile & genuine kindness. Suf went above & beyond to ensure that we were accommodated & made us feel welcome. Her attentiveness & willingness to assist us in every way possible truly made our dining experience exceptional. Although accessibility is limited (more about this at the end) Suf worked with us to find a way for me to enjoy the restaurant.

Now, let's talk about the food. Sesame offers a menu with a modern twist on various cuisines, & the flavors were absolutely phenomenal. I opted for the General Tao's Poultry, & it was a delightful explosion of flavors. The chicken was perfectly cooked, crispy on the outside & tender on the inside, coated in a tangy & savory sauce that left me craving for more.

My wife decided to try the Tao Poke, & she was blown away by the freshness & quality of the ingredients. The combination of chicken, vegetables, & the unique sauce created a harmonious blend of flavors that was both refreshing & satisfying.

As for my son, he ordered the Pad Thai, a classic dish that Sesame executed flawlessly. The balance of sweet, sour, & savory flavors in the dish was spot on, & the generous portion of noodles & perfectly cooked shrimp made it a truly enjoyable experience.

To complement our meal, we also indulged in some dumplings, which were simply divine. The delicate dumpling wrappers were filled with a flavorful mixture, & each bite was a burst of deliciousness.

What truly made our experience at Sesame exceptional was the outstanding service provided by Suf. Her attentiveness, kindness, & willingness to go the extra mile made us feel valued as customers. Suf's exceptional service truly enhanced our dining experience & left a lasting impression.

In conclusion, Sesame is not only a restaurant with incredible food & modern twists on classic dishes, but it is also a place where exceptional service & genuine hospitality shine. If you're looking for a memorable dining experience in Montreal, I highly recommend visiting Sesame & experiencing their phenomenal cuisine & the warm hospitality of their staff, especially Suf.

Un bon repas, une belle soirée.
Bière & sangria différentes & très appréciées. Entrées de calmars plus que délicieuses. Poulet général tao & pad thai si bons & bien servis. Service impeccable dans un endroit où la beauté de l'espace & de la luminosité feutrée nous fait ressentir un bien-être.

J'y vais souvant. Les plats sont delicieux, l'ambience est cool, le service est bon.
Juste une chose, Le soupe-repas, Thaï coco, c est très délicieux mais je pense qu'il fautrait quand même donner assez de nouilles au lieu de juste remplir par bouillons.
Je préfère cel sur sainte Catherine pour ce repas.
