A bit too cold in the restaurant. Also, we had asked for certain adjustments in the dishes we ordered (e.g. no sesame seeds; no zucchini) that were not fulfilled.

Ordered as a birthday dinner, turned out to be disappointing. I'm sorry, but I really did try. Despite reading other's bad reviews, I still took a chance to support local. I love pad thai so decided to try a new place to add to my list. Sesame won't be on that list tho. I paid for extra panko tofu, got none. Asked for extra spicy, got none, had to add my own, even though the description mentions''slightly spicy'', really, where? Peanuts? Don't even dream about it. Topped with one tiny lime, barely squeezable. Oh, & the chicken, can you make it look more cooked, for others please, it almost looked microwaved. I'm not even mad, I was really hungry & the food weighing 787 g was appropriate, I'm rather quite disappointed that I had to pay 30$ for this lack of ingredients, extras & refinement. I've already cooked a few pad thai from scratch, & I start to wonder if you use fresh ingredients or a premade sauce from bottle... Anyway, I hope you guys improve, I wish you perseverance & success in your endeavors, peace.

When I first visited Sesame on St. Jacques I was happily surprised; the food was fresh, spicy & innovative. When they opened the Atwater branch we went there & found it to be ok, although a few notches down from our initial experience. I went the other day again & boy was the experience bad. Service continues to be good & efficient. But the food was terrible. I ordered chicken with peanut sauce on rice & both the chicken & rice were badly cooked. The chicken was completely tasteless, product of what happens when you don't seat protein properly. All it's juices were long gone so for flavour you only relied on the super sweet peanut sauce. Very disappointed. The resto of my family's food was also quite bad. & to top it, quite pricey. Will not got there again. It's sad to see a good idea get lost by greed...

Vraiment très bruyant,difficile d'entendre la conversation de l'autre personne....la musique forte en plein jour est vraiment agaçante & ne fait que rajouter au bruit!
Sinon,ajouter des panneaux anti bruit à votre resto!!
