It was ok but on the expensive side. Some of the food was good (mainly the dumplings, the poke bowl & the shrimp tempura), the general tao is very bland; the sauce was sweet but didn't taste like general tao - more like generic Asian sauce for white people & the chicken was clearly frozen nuggets or something - more breading than chicken. The wonton soup had 2 wontons in it, mushrooms & a baby bok choy but tasted overly like chinese five spice or star anise, so if you like the traditional wonton soup from most chinese restaurants you will be sorely disappointed. I ordered shrimp & tofu chow mein & I only got shrimp... & the sauce for it was basically sweet soy & perfumed ginger, & there was a lot of it which made the noodles soggy. I left most of it because it just wasn't great. The chicken bao was pretty bland as well & the chicken itself was mostly batter with hardly any chicken (again, probably frozen), & the bao had a bunch of cilantro in it, hidden under the lettuce. I don't know which bao this was supposed to be (I'm guessing the spicy one), as it also came with avocado & the general tao one did not have either (avocado or cilantro) listed as an ingredient on the menu, it was also missing the cheese. I'm glad it wasn't me eating it but my poor husband had a reaction to the cilantro & had to take an allergy pill when we got home because of it. I guess we found out the hard way that he's also allergic to it like I am (at least it wasn't a life threatening reaction but seriously, that should have been listed on the menu!)
I will say the peanut sauce was also decent (though a bit on the sweeter side). All in all the dumplings & peanuts were good but if I want to spend money like that I'll go for dim sum.
Our server was nice & polite, as was the rest of the staff so no complaints there, but the food wasn't anything to be thrilled about, especially at the cost we paid for it. I'm not a foodie, so maybe that's my problem. I like good food, & I don't mind spending money on good food, but I don't follow these food trends & fusion joints because they can't decide what kind of restaurant they want to be. This place honestly just feels like a bunch of white people trying & failing to make Asian food, & I say Asian because there was no direction it in. Could've been Thai, or Japanese, or Chinese, but the only thing it really was, is confused fusion that just tastes overly salty & overly sweet.
Très bon repas & nous avons eu un excellent service table 42 hier soir je pense qu'elle s'appelle Sabrina. Très professionnel & aimable. Dumpling super bon & boeuf croustillant & générale Tao super aussi.
Un petit bistro sympathique avec un service rapide & professionnel. Mais attendez, le meilleur est le menu. Un beau choix de dumplings, nouilles, sautés, pokés, soupes & salades. Notre choix s'est arrêté sur l'assiette dégustation dans petits plats & plateau dégustation dumplings (le plateau de 10 ne sera pas suffisant) accompagné d'un vin Cabernet Sauvignon d'Espagne. Au final un endroit accueillant & a prix raisonnable qui vaut le détour!
Went on a Friday night around 8pm. The place is on the smaller side & we had No reservation but we managed to get a table for 2 right away anyways. Ambience & decor is very nice. Hostess & server were both very kind & professional. Took awhile for our food to come out-the server was working both sides so maybe they were short staffed but there were several people on the floor.
The food was not great. No depth to flavours & was Mediocre at best.
The calamari-crispy but doused in the sauce.
Tasting platter- tempura covered in the same sauce as the calamari, wontons & papaya salad nothing special. Imperial rolls were good. Dumpling tasting platter: couldn't differentiate the different types. They all tasted the same & again no exceptional flavours.
Soups: we had the TomYum- low spice level & overtaken with lemongrass. Same with the Thai coco. Hardly any coconut milk. Heavy lemongrass flavour.
Husband ordered a cocktail (Negroni yuzu sour) which was ok.
Overall the experience was disappointing & we would not return. I recognize everyone has different tastes but this really missed the mark. I don't even think it was an'off-night' except for the fact service was a little slow. The execution & flavour development of dishes needs improvement. I'll also note the server gave us some coupons for our next visit which was appreciated but won't be used.
Perfect place for a date night! 🥰 Sesame is a great spot for good Asian food & drinks 👌🏽 We had shrimp chips, Thai sweet chilli chicken, dumplings, chowmein, & the spicy chicken Bao. I do think that the chicken Bao could have been a bit more spicy & seasoned (but I guess that's just my Indian palate talking 😂). Do try their Sesame Bomb drink if you like fruity drinks with a kick 😉 (some might need a few extra!)
I loved their service - our server was so warm & friendly. The ambience is calm & cozy, bathrooms all clean as well 😃 They even gave us a 10% off coupon for our next visit ☺?
Overall, this was our first time & we were really happy. We wish them the best! 💖
Had the orange beef. Some of the pieces were ultra-rare I discovered after eating a good amount. Hopefully they're using prime beef. A large amount of our food was served by a lady wearing running shoes, jeans & a t shirt. Kind of odd when the rest of the staff were wearing typical server outfits. The food is somewhat overpriced (especially dumplings) but it's a nice restaurant with a good vibe.
Wasn't the worst experience I've ever had but definitely nothing special.
Ordered takeout & didn't receive my free item. There was no sauce with the egg roll nor the dumplings. It's not that difficult to get such a simple order right.
I ubered some food from here & was excited to get it. I had ordered pork dumplings & wonton soup. I am very disappointed about the pork dumplings since it was 10$ & they were only four dumplings in total! The wonton soup was alright but I certainly wouldn't reorder from here. Very overpriced for little taste & quantity.
The food was not good, it was not authentic asian cuisine. The dumplings were frozen, the general tao was basically a chicken nugget covered in sauce, the thai beef curry tasted like It was made from beef bouillon & water, my soup my cold. over all not good food, not worth the price
