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.

Repas avant un spectacle à la Place des Arts. Le serveur, Greg, s' est informé de l'heure de notre spectacle dès notre arrivée. Service rapide, courtois & attentionné. Magnifique décor & ambiance agréable. Nourriture délicieuse & bien présentée à prix raisonnable. Ce n'était pas ma première visite & ce ne sera pas ma dernière. À la prochaine!

Nourriture correcte mais le service laisse à désirer. Nous avons attendu presqu'une heure à nos tables avant d'avoir du service, ils se sont trompés pour mon entrée & dès qu'on a fini le plat principal (après l'avoir attendu longtemps), la serveuse nous a sommé de partir sans proposer de café ou de dessert sous prétexte que la prochaine réservation arrivait. On peut comprendre qu'il y ait une limite de temps pour la réservation pour chaque client dans un resto achalandé, mais si on a pas eu de service pendant une heure c'est absurde de s'attendre à ce qu'on parte à la même heure. À éviter à tout prix!

Sesame has some fun food, it's good, creative, & very aesthetically appealing. I will say though that I would go back just for their dessert, I cannot stress enough how amazing they are! The mango sorbet is so fresh, & the sesame & matcha ice cream is a fire match that you need in your life.
