Sésame offers a concept unique in its kind: an out of the ordinary variety of high quality Asian dishes to enjoy in a warm atmosphere.
From the Pad Thai to the General Tao poutine, or one of the various wok sautées, you can eat your meal on site or take it to go.
Additionally, Sésame offers a wide selection of loose teas, several privately imported wines, beers on tap, a wide selection of sake, but especially, a menu of exclusive Sésame cocktails.
Reviews portray Sésame as a warm, elegant Asian fusion spot with a calm, refined atmosphere. The menu is praised for flavorful, generously portioned dishes such as dumplings, poke bowls, Pad Thai, calamari and a standout General Tao, offering good value. Service is frequently described as friendly and attentive, with efficient, considerate staff noted across visits, though a few experiences mention slower pacing during busy times or a louder environment. Overall, the dining experience is described as memorable and inviting, with guests enjoying the food and ambiance and expressing intentions to return.

Pretty good until the waitress tipped herself before handing us the machine to pay. Not normal behavior & I will not come back! Not acceptable in the service industry at all!! I assume they do this often to people who maybe seem like tourists.
Mon serveur Tom était de très bon conseil ! Il a rendu ma soirée exceptionnelle ! Merci à lui !
La nourriture était excellente & l'ambiance au top !
Je recommande !
Excellente soirée avec ma compagne ! Certains de nos amis nous ont conseillé cette adresse, & nous comprenons leur engouement ! Le service & la cuisine était digne d'un grand restaurant montréalais !
Nous y reviendrons sans hésiter!!
Mention spécial à Suf, Tom & Joseph qui ont rendu notre moment aussi précieux !
Quelle belle soirée en compagnie de mon fiancé ! Pour fêter nos 3 ans de relation, nous avons décidé d'aller au Sesame du Vieux Port ! Les plats étaient délicieux, copieux (nous avons prit la fin à emporter) Le service des serveurs Tom, Suf & Joseph était incroyables. À l'écoute, au petit soin & bienveillants.
Le lumière est parfaitement tamisée, l'ambiance décontractée mais classe.
Merci Suf pour la belle soirée! Ton service est hors pair, merci pour les recommandations! Les plats etaient délicieux! Coup de coeur pour le vin orange !
We ate here on a wet Friday night. It was quite busy & a bit noisy. J had pawpaw salad & salmon tartare & enjoyed both. I had tom yum soup with tofu - the broth was sour & a bit salty. I quite enjoyed it at first but it came to feel rather harsh, & certainly not up to many tom yum soups I have had before. My teriyaki tofu stir-fry was in some ways nice enough if unremarkable, & the rice had a good texture for bland white rice. However as J said the stir-fry had a smoky flavour. It turned out (after I had eaten most of it) that this was because some of the tofu was burnt. The side salad I had asked for hadn't been entered by the server (who was otherwise pleasant & efficient) & didn't arrive until I had eaten most of the main dish. Overall my experience was probably a two, but J's at least a 3. However I don't think we would go back again unless the imperative of convenience was very strong.

Pretty nice place for a quick bite or a date, their food looks very good & tasty
Quality vs Quantity is pretty fare & the service is pretty good they will make their best to make your visit to their restaurant memorable. I highly recommend it . Special thanks to Enzo for serving us our meals .
Amazing food. Super tasty! Cozy atmosphere, lovely place. The service was also great. We ordered that tasting menu for two &, when we told them that we brought them one wrong plate, they immediately told the kitchen & in five minutes we had the right one on the table. Kids friendly too & great service with accommodating allergies. Totally recommend!
