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 soup was cold & tasteless. The spring rolls were soggy & tasted like a frozen version that I could have easily found at Costco. The main course was very ordinary & didn't taste any better than Thai Express. The location was wonderful but wasn't worth the price. Won't be be going back nor would I recommend this restaurant unfortunately.

Imperial roll was the best thing we had.
The soups (Thai Coco & Tom Yum) were lacking flavour (surprisingly)
The beef Teriyaki... not sure if that was beef, & it was chewy (not in an "overcooked" kind of way)
General Tao Chicken was cold & not crispy. Sauteed Vegetables were cold too
At least the ambiance was nice & the staff was very friendly. If I go back, it would only be for drinks & for the ambiance

Plat sans intérêt avec légumes qui semblaient décongelés ( Général Tao) . Le poulet était correct mais très petite quantité. La soupe Tom Yum n'avais presque rien dedans .
Assez déçu de ce resto que j'aimais avant .

Nous on adore le Sesame depuis longtemps pour son menu "fusion" asiatique. Ce nouvel emplacement, sur la place des spectacles, est parfaite pour nos soupers avant spectacles à la place des arts. C'est un bel endroit, tout lumineux. La formule table d'hôte est à juste prix.

The food was very sub-par, would be 2-stars, but the ambiance & food presentation bump up the star rating by 1. The flavour was simply lacking, everything was bland. Probably one of the worst Tom Yum soups I've ever had, & I always order one at any Thai resto that I visit for my numerous Yelp reviews. The kids enjoyed their meals, but not the adults. So if you plan a kids party, maybe this is an option, but anyone looking for flavourful food, take a 5 minute walk south the Chinatown & save yourself the disappointment. Food was also brought out at different times for the table of 10, so while half the table waited for the other half to get their food, their plates got cold - service needs improvement.
