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.

Food & service were excellent. Loved the sami & dumpling samplers. Wish the music was not so loud; that's our only quibble.

This is a lovely place to sit outside in a nice night. We didn't order much stuff, in fact we started by ordering a sample of dim sum dumplings. Because the light was low, I was not able to distinguish between the different dim sum. But most disappointing is that I was served the smallest Negroni that I ever got at any restaurant!

J'ai été très déçue de la nourriture. Les dumplings aux arachides étaient froids, la sauce gélatineuse. Bref, pas bon. Le service était lent mais les serveuses étaient très gentilles. Je ne recommande pas.

Les dumplings étaient encore gelés . Quand on nous en a apporté d'autres , ils n'étaient pas vraiment plus chaud & l'intérieur ne semblait pas cuit.
La nourriture était très décevante. On dirait du réchauffé.
Je ne recommande pas ce restaurant.
