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.
Superbe expérience au Sésame Atwater ! Les plats étaient délicieux & bien présentés. Un grand merci à notre serveuse Hanna pour son service attentionné & chaleureux. Je recommande vivement cet endroit !

Service was poor. Waited quite a while before ordering & to pay at the end. Had to call the waiter 2-3 times instead of her coming to see us. Restaurent wasn't even full.
La nourriture est plutôt bonne mais les assiettes ne sont pas très généreuses. La soupe coco thaï est très bonne à prendre en entrée. L'ambiance est sympa & plutôt classe. Bonne soirée en général
Je suis allée récemment au restaurant Sesame & j'ai beaucoup aimé le plat que j'ai pris & mon amie aussi! Les drinks quant à eux étaient goûteux & rafraîchissants. & pour terminer, je tiens à mentionner que le service de la serveuse au nom d'Ellie était impeccable! :) Elle venait nous voir régulièrement pour voir si tout allait bien, elle était à l'écoute & elle était d'une belle humeur. Je retournerai sans aucun doute au restaurant pour la belle ambiance & pour le service à la clientèle.
Merci! :)

Nous avons eu une très belle expérience au Sésame! Le service était impeccable & la nourriture vraiment délicieuse! Nos plats étaient savoureux, bien présentés & remplis de fraîcheur. Nous avons déjà hâte d'y retourner!
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.
