Sésame offers a concept unique in its kind: an out of the ordinary variety of high quality Asian dishes to enjoy in a warm atmosphere.
From the Pad Thai to the General Tao poutine, or one of the various wok sautées, you can eat your meal on site or take it to go.
Additionally, Sésame offers a wide selection of loose teas, several privately imported wines, beers on tap, a wide selection of sake, but especially, a menu of exclusive Sésame cocktails.
Sésame is consistently praised for its friendly, efficient service and vibrant atmosphere that suits a pre-show dinner in the Place des Arts area. The menu offers a diverse array of Asian fusion dishes, with well presented plates, generous portions, and flavors that range from savory pad thai to tasty dumplings and soups, plus standout cocktails and desserts that add a festive touch. The setting is described as stylish and cozy, with an appealing terrace and a central downtown locale that makes it easy to pair a meal with an evening show. Guests also note good value for money given the quality, and many return for reliable consistency, quick seating, and attentive service. Occasional comments mention busier nights bringing louder ambiance and longer waits, but the overall experience remains positive and memorable, making this a go-to spot for locals and visitors before or after performances.

Le repas était bon, sauf qu'il y a eu erreur dans ma commande & on m'a servi le sauté légumes & poulet dans la sauce arachides alors que j'avais commandé la sauce curry rouge. Oups.. Comme nous allions à un spectacle, je n'ai pas mentionné l'erreur car nous aurions manqué de temps..
Très bon souper au Sesame du quartier des Spectacles. La serveuse était super attentionnée. La nourriture très bonne. L'ambiance & le décor au top. Nous étions 4 & les commentaires sont unamines, nous reviendrons assurément!
The food was good but the portion was small for the price charged. The server was polite & courteous, but when I asked to have the vegan option the person asked if I wanted the eggs? I enjoyed the atmosphere & the beautiful decoration.
Notre restaurant préféré à moi & mon conjoint. Nous n'avons jamais été déçu de la nourriture & de l'ambiance! Une belle endroit pour bien mangé des plats asiatiques. Une coup de coeur!

Deux personnes ont commandé du poulet Général Tao & ont trouvé leur plat beaucoup plus épicé que d'habitude .
Suggestion: indiquer dans le menu que le plat est plus épicé qu'avant
