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.

20 minutes to get water. Drinks another 20. Never asked if we wanted another drink. Never refilled our water.

Food was some of the best we had while here. Service was terrible at best.

This is a lovely place to sit outside in a nice night. We didn't order much stuff, in fact we started by ordering a sample of dim sum dumplings. Because the light was low, I was not able to distinguish between the different dim sum. But most disappointing is that I was served the smallest Negroni that I ever got at any restaurant!

La porte de la terrasse avant étant ouverte, faisait que plusieurs abeilles se promenaient autour de notre table. Un peu dommage!

Attente d'1h30 pour manger sur l'heure du dîner alors que nous étions en pause du midi au travail. On nous dit qu'on ne sait pas quand on sera servis . Sans excuses . Très décevant. Nous ne reviendrons pas .
