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.

I was yearning for Asian food & I came across this menu online & noticed the Thai options they had, so I walked here a few blocks from the hotel I was staying in. They were moderately busy on a Tuesday night & they greeted & seated me immediately. My server was great, very friendly & helpful. The menu had a couple of items that looked appetizing, such as the Tom Yum soup & curry chicken stir fry.

I started with jasmine hot tea, which was excellent & warming after the walk in 2 degree weather. The soup was warm as well, but flavors weren't as authentic as I expected. It was decent though. Next up was the curry chicken stir fry & it was really bland, so I used a bunch of their hot sauce to spike it up. I've never been to a Thai spot that didn't have birds eye chili & Prik nam pla, as their hot sauce was a form of sriracha. It was spicy, but not much flavor.

Overall, the venue was beautifully decorated & service was great, but food mediocre.

nourriture moyenne poulet bao sec, pad sew dur point positif la soupe coco. Mais surtout pleins de petits cheveux & poils sur la nourriture. Le staff est sympathique mais il manque du personnel deux serveuses qui courent dans tout les sens pour tout faire fait que le service est très lent & l'accueil aussi

Une belle expérience globale! L'ambiance était agréable & conviviale. Nous avons particulièrement apprécié la soupe Tom Yum, même si elle est très épicée - à noter pour ceux qui préfèrent des saveurs plus douces. Le plateau de dégustation de dumplings était varié, & les cocktails bien réalisés.

Ce restaurant situé en plein coeur de la place des arts offre un endroit lounge très agréable. Les assiettes sont pleines de saveurs! J'ai goûté la soupe de coco Thaï qui n'est pas piquante & bien parfumée, le pad Thaï au boeuf, le poké au poulet & le boeuf Teryaki étaient tous copieux. Il manquait selon moi des légumes dans le boeuf Teryaki mais mis à part cela tout était bien. Comme nous étions là pour célébrer un anniversaire, nous avons eu droit à un dessert (moelleux au chocolat) offert par la maison! Belle surprise & belle découverte!

Nous avons récemment souper au restaurant Le Sésame & avons été ravis par notre expérience. L'ambiance y est chaleureuse & accueillante, mais ce qui a vraiment marqué notre soirée, c'est le service exceptionnel de Greg.

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

Je connais ce restaurant depuis des années, j'habite juste derrière. Est-il un vrai 5 étoiles? Peut-être pas, mais l'amélioration depuis un an ou deux est manifeste. Je soupçonne un changement dans la gestion, très positif, mais aussi le menu. Ambiance super cool, bref, je recommande.
