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.

SESAME was exactly what it said it was, an Asian fusion restaurant. I always wanted to try this place since it looked so chic on the outside. Walking into the restaurant, it was just that.

We ordered the salmon tartare for an appetizer, which was delicious & fresh. For main, I got the pad thai with tofu, & my partner got the orange chicken. I was craving Thai food earlier in the day, & this pad Thai was the best pad Thai I've had in a while.

It was so flavorful & had the right ratio of noodles to ingredients. I was stuffed by the time I finished, & I immediately recommended this place to someone who loves pad thai. The orange chicken, too, was so tender on the inside & so full of flavor on the outside. Paired with the rice & vegetables, it made a balanced meal.

Overall, I would come back for the pad thai. If I'm ever in the area craving Asian food again, I'm sure I'll be there.

Plats délicieux & cocktails originaux. Nous nous sommes régalés. Dommage que le restaurant ait commencé à préparer la fermeture alors que nous étions encore attablés. Sans avoir été poussés dehors, nous aurions aimé prolonger notre expérience. Nous reviendrons, certainement un peu plus tôt.

I had the Korean fried Chicken. it was like eating Frozen pre-cooked fried Chicken from Costco that was warmed to a dry consistency. Yum. I think the rest of the food at the table was taken out of bags & containers & heated up. Not delicious. So disappointed. All the girls like the sweet slushie drinks.

Sesame is located in a charming part of downtown Montreal (Quartier des Spectacles), making it a very convenient spot, especially if you're heading to a show at Place des Arts. The restaurant's decor has a stylish, White Lotus-like vibe that adds to the ambiance. The staff are friendly, & the menu is right up my alley - the food is very good & consistently enjoyable.

That said, there's one recurring issue. On two separate occasions, I made early dinner reservations specifically to have time for a leisurely meal before a show at Place des Arts. Both times, despite arriving early, the service was so slow that we had to skip the dessert & coffee included in our'Meal for Two' & rush out to make it to the performance. Even after letting the waitress know that we were short on time, the pace didn't really pick up. While the restaurant was busy, I do feel there's room for improvement when it comes to managing service flow, especially for guests who are clearly on a schedule.

Just a little food for thought.
