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.

We stumbled upon this gem of a restaurant. Went on a Saturday around 18:00 & they graciously accommodated us without a reservation. The restaurant is clean & seats about 20 plus the terrasse. Our group consisted of 3 meat eaters & 1 Vegan & the choices were plentiful. The dumplings were just right & the peanut sauce was on point. The salmon tartare was fantastic! The general Tao (Chicken traditional & Tofu Gochugang) were fresh & VERY tasty. We will definitely be going back. I'm going to assume that parking'may' be an issue during the summer but I think you can park in the front of Super C.

La nourriture est délicieuse, nous étions 3 & nous avons tous appréciée. Les bancs sur la terrasse ne sont pas confortable, par contre, ils nous fournissent un coussin pour le dos, sans problème! Nous y retournerons.

Très bon service & jolie terrasse. Nous avons très bien mangé. Seul mini bémol: les edamame manquaient de cuisson. Tout le reste était délicieux.
