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.

Ambiance très agréable sur la terrasse. Emplacement exceptionnel au centre-ville, sur la place des spectacles. Un peu débordé ce soir là.

Un repas tout simplement savoureux! Le menu pour 2 offre une très belle variété & chaque plat est un vrai plaisir. Service impeccable, on y retourne sans hésiter!

The food was good, service was excellent. Most entrees (main meal) were priced around $25, so when we saw a'for two' sharing option listed at $49, both my wife & I, as well as the couple we were with, understood that to mean $49 total for two people. Instead, the bill came out to $49 per person. I'm sure it must have been written somewhere on the menu, but none of the four of us saw it, which suggests the wording could be much clearer.

We sat on the patio, & enjoyed the social energy of the plaza. The service was friendly & attentive. The menu was in English or French. The food was fresh & delicious! Along with a full bar menu, they offered unique (& very tasty) mocktails! The shrimp Tempura was light & flavorful. The Mini Poke Bowl, which had salmon, was balanced & the salmon was perfect. Would highly recommend a visit!

The food was good, the negroni yuzu sour was great, & the service was perfect. I'm not giving it 5 stars because for a mid range asian fusion restaurant, I'm not expecting to eat out of disposable chopstick & eating an entire large meal soup with a flat American spoon is just annoying.

Please get some Asian utensils (& not disposable ones).

Update: after revisiting this location about a year later, I was please to be serve with much nicer chopstick!

Décevant, les plats général Tao & boeuf à l'orange étaient surtout composés de riz, très peu de légumes.

Ambiance parfaite, excellent service. J'ai invité quelques collègues de travail qui ne connaissaient pas Sesame. Ils ont été très impressionné. Un incontournable quand on veut pas prendre de risque d'être déçu!!! N'hésitez pas ils ont un menu qui comble n'importe qui. D'un Vegan au carnivore.
