Exactly what I was looking for: great asian food done right & a cosy atmosphere without the uptightness of a''fancy'' restaurant. The wonton soup is to die for, loved the General Tao chicken & the you must try the Red Curry Shrimp!!

Soupe délicieuse ! Par contre la sauce aux arachides aurait pu être moins acide. Mais… nous reviendrons avec grand plaisir !

Food was not generous & didn't satisfy me completely, I was very hungry after & It did cost me quite the amount. Atmosphere & drink is good... but food is not generous for the price!

75 min pour recevoir notre repas alors que le resto est presque vide. Menu dégustation vegan servi avec des oeufs... Plats plutôt ordinaires, autant dans la présentation que les ingrédients. Honnêtement, Sésame a perdu beaucoup de sa qualité. Allez ailleurs, beaucoup d'autres choix dans le secteur.

I often go to Sesame. It is walking distance from my work & I do takeouts. I go cause the quality of the food is excellent & for the past 10 years that I am going, it never changed. However, even for take outs, they are slow & not friendly. It happened few times that I got there (around 12:30 pm)& wanted to order for take out & the manager told me they cant serve me as they are overwhelmed. He never apologized or say he is sorry. He simply did not care to lose me as a customer. Even the few times that I sat to eat, the service was slow & it was not even that busy. Overall I recommend their food but they have to work to give a better customer service.

It was fine but definatly not worth the price. Coconut broth was under seasoned, chicken karage was pink & underwhelming & the papaya salad was one of the worst I've had. The orange general taos tasted like it was made from concentrated orange syrup. The space & servers however are great!

Made a reservation here for 3 & when we got here there was no one in there, which I liked. They gave us two seating options, one by the door & another by the walking path; didn't like either of those options but told us if we picked another seat there would be a time constraint. I was annoyed so just picked the less annoying table option. The food was mid. They are luck we were VERY HUNGRY. The food didn't feel like it was seasoned properly, very bland. I will say their Spicy Wontons were great! But we got their Pad Sew as our main & there was far more bean sprouts than noodles. Was kind of sad that I spent my money there when I probably could have went to Chinatown for a more authentic Pad See Ew. Lesson learned. The atmosphere was warm & cozy & the waiter was nice.

Le général tao est une valeur sûre néanmoins je n'ai pas apprécié qu'alors que le restaurant était aux 3/4 vidé le serveur soit pressant, pousse fortement à la consommation & nous apporte nos factures sans que nous l'ayons demandé.
