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.
Sésame comes across as a warm welcoming spot with a lively yet comfortable ambiance, where service is consistently friendly and attentive and the menu offers inventive, flavorful dishes. Dishes such as salmon tartare, ramen, dumplings and poke bowls are frequently praised for freshness and balance, with cocktails and overall dining experience often highlighted as strong points. While many notes celebrate value, generous portions and attractive decor, a few reviews mention noise from ventilation or music, portions that may feel small for the price, and occasional slow service or temperature issues. Overall the sentiment points to Sésame as a reliable favorite for casual meals with friends or family, with guests eager to return and recommend the place.
Restaurant incroyable avec un service exceptionnel. Le personnel - en particulier notre serveur - était extrêmement sympathique & rapide. Fortement recommandé
Nous avons compris que la serveuse était débordé mais, c'était quand même un peu long pour recevoir de l'eau & prendre la commande. Pas trop grave parce-que nous avions du temps. Mais, faut peut-être revoir votre planification de staff.
The waitresses were so warm & welcoming… full of smiles & cheerfulness… the food was delicious, the music was background, the atmosphere was comfortable… thank you for a delightful evening out!

Everything from the cocktails to the food & service was spot on. The salmon tartare & the ramen were delicious; perfectly balanced & fresh. We will definitely be back!'
Le cocktail à l'hibiscus est délicieux & très rafraîchissant. Le service est excellent : attentif & chaleureux. Les entrées sont pleines de saveurs & bien présentées. Les plats principaux sont bons, sans plus.
