Review Summary

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.

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.

Prix raisonnables pour la quantité, mais la qualité pourrait avoir une signature plus percutante. Les cocktails sont super bons & variés!

Food & service was quite good. The cocktails were not the best... Very watery & lacking flavour or proper mixing ingredients.
