Review Summary

Sésame is a highly regarded destination, frequently praised for its delicious Asian-inspired cuisine, fresh ingredients, and inviting atmosphere. Guests often highlight the flavorful dishes, including the General Tao chicken and various poke bowls, which are complemented by a creative cocktail and mocktail menu. The restaurant’s prime location in the Quartier des Spectacles makes it a popular choice for theatergoers, and the staff is consistently described as professional, friendly, and attentive. While most experiences are excellent, some visitors have noted occasional challenges with noise levels, portion sizes, or wait times during peak hours. Overall, it remains a go-to spot for both casual gatherings and special occasions, with many patrons eager to return for the consistent quality and vibrant energy.

Excellent service reçu par le charmant Philippe hier midi! Très à l'écoute & très serviable. Nous avons pris le général Tao & des dumplings aux arachides. C'était excellent 👍🏼

The place was hopping as usual. The dumplings was good- but sadly cold! The general Tao chicken was partially cold- but warm underneath. Interesting drink selection. Service was kind- but staff seemed overwhelmed- but always with a smile. Great place for my vegan friend !!!!!

We got dumplings (with the table d'hôte). Nobody brought us sauces nor sticks. The waitress was absent on this 1st course. I waived a girl behind the bar to give us sticks. My date wanted to go get the sticks herself. The waitress recognized her mistake later on. She apologized & was much better for the other courses. But this review is targeted to the team as a whole. If waitresses & the kitchen are overwhelmed, making sure that we have the least to savour our overly expensive meal would be to meet the strict minimum. The waitress still got her 15% tip, but I won't come back to this establishment again. It is very unfortunate. Thank you.

Restaurant prêt de la place des arts , un petit souper avant le spectacle. Service chaleureux, on a mangé sur la. Terrasse & c'était agréable. L'entrée de dumpling était super bon & le général taho avait bon goût mais trop cuit à mon goût. Donc, pour2,avec une bouteille de vin blanc, un entrée pour 2 & 2 couvers, avec le pourboire: 142$, ce qui est rendu un prix raisonnable

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...

Great location, atmosphere, & service. The food itself was mostly just ok for our group of 4. Pork dumplings & deep fried wonton were good, different flavors from what we've experienced in the past. The orange gochujang, general Tao, & pad thai flavors seemed off to us, but ok. I think with a few menu changes this place cold be great.

Très beau restaurant avec une bonne ambiance & bon service. J'ai pris des dumplings au porc en entrée, du poulet au beurre comme repas principal & des mochis pour dessert. Le tout était excellent! J'ai également pris un cocktail "slush" qui était un peu cher, mais très bon. Je vais y retourner c'est sûr!
