Review Summary

Sésame is a well-regarded restaurant that is frequently praised for its fresh, flavorful pan-Asian dishes, with popular items like the General Tao chicken, poke bowls, and creative mocktails often highlighted. The restaurant serves as a convenient and popular dining destination, particularly for those attending events in the downtown area. While many guests enjoy the welcoming atmosphere, pleasant decor, and efficient service provided by the friendly staff, some visitors have noted inconsistencies regarding noise levels, occasional service delays, or portion sizes. Despite these mixed experiences, many patrons consider it a reliable go-to spot and frequently express their intention to return due to the overall quality of the food and the professional, accommodating nature of the team.

The food was mediocre. Cocktails were good but orange chicken tasted like orange candy. Usually chicken is the best part of any meal but I genuinely did not want to take another bite of that meal. Servers & host had the worst attitude. Do not recommend, get some delicious Asian food in an actual Asian restaurant.

Good location & good service but the recommended dishes were awful. The Pad Thai looked good but did not deserve the name. The sauce was so fishy it absolutely overpowered the entire dish, the noodles were overcooked, the chicken texture reminded me of a microwaved airplane dish. Also, the cocktails were very watered down. Overall an overpriced & underwhelming experience.

Un lunch entre amis des plus agréables ! Magnifique terrasse qui donne sur le Quartier des spectacles. Nourriture succulente, délicieux cocktails & service chaleureux & empressé (merci Greg !). Bref, à refaire !

Général Tao trop épicé & trop sucré. Dumpling au poulet bon mais la sauce aux arachides beaucoup trop sucrée. Peu de subtilité dans les goûts & saveurs peu balancées. Le sauté sauce aux arachides est trop acide & le tofu manque de saveur. Verre à cocktail & verre à bière craquelé. Très beau restaurant mais les plats ne sont pas à la hauteur, & vaut mieux éviter la salle de bain...

C'était parfait le service ,le cocktail excellent,le repas, le seul « bemol » est le courant d'air désagréable mais notre serveuse a été exceptionnelle pour nous arranger une table moins exposé. On reviendra assurément .
