Nous étions un groupe de 30 personnes & la gérante était d'une flexibilité hors pair, le service incroyable, rapide, attentionné, à l'écoute , chaleureux! Nous avons pu décoré & étions dans un coin plus réservé à l'écart donc privé ! Tout était parfait comme soirée ! Bravo à toute l'équipe !!
The restaurant is very nicely decorated, but the tables are so close together, you can very clearly hear the'neighbours'' conversation & it's quite awkward squeezing past the people at the table next to you to get in & out of your seat. The waiter was very kind & polite. However, I was majorly disappointed with the food (which took quite a while to arrive). I had been there once before & had the general tao which was quite good. This time, I decided to try something new. I ordered the beef pad sew. The noodles were severely undercooked, hard, & chewy & the overall dish was extremely salty. Had I not been so hungry, I would've left it after my first bite. I was still left hungry at the end. There were hardly any noodles; the portion felt tiny. Considering the price too, I was very dissatisfied, unfortunately. My friend ordered the beef pad thai, which she said was also extremely salty & she couldn't finish it.

I booked this restaurant based on feedback from friends & reviews. We were a group of 12 people & everyone expressed how please they were with the service & food. I have a food allergy & the server went above & beyond to ensure that I was taken care of & we had to switch out my choice as everyone was being served as they had some concerns with the dish for me. I was incredible surprised on how quickly my new order was served. Food was delicious, quantity atmosphere was really nice. Great place for date night. We will definitely be going back.

Je suis allé au Sésame à Vaudreuil-Dorion, pis honnêtement… wow. 🔥 Tout était impeccable du début à la fin. La bouffe? Un vrai délice, chaque bouchée était pleine de saveurs, bien présentée, juste parfaite. Le service? Sérieusement, au-delà de mes attentes. & je dois donner une mention particulière à mon serveur Yuri: ce gars-là était juste sacoche. 🙌 Attentif, sympathique, rapide, de bonne vibe, il a rendu l'expérience encore plus mémorable.
C'était pas juste un souper, c'était une expérience malade que je recommande à 1000%. Si vous cherchez un resto où la qualité, le service & l'ambiance se rejoignent, allez direct au Sésame. Merci à toute l'équipe, vous avez assuré! 👏

The service was horrible!! We waited 10 minutes to get a glass of water another 10 before they took our orders maybe more! Then the food came before we even got our drinks!!! They brought me wonton soup instead of peanut butter wontons(big difference), I already ordered a coconut thai soup why would I order 2 soups! Then when I actually got my drink it wasn't even what I ordered, i orders a sesame sangria & they brought me a bloody Cesar!!!!not the same at all! They didn't do anything to compensate for all the mistakes! I use to go before,they had an amazing manager! & sadly they let her go! Not the same!
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.
Je recommande fortement ! Très belle place belle embiance ! Le service a été un peut long par contre !mais cest la seule chose .... nous allons y retourner sans aucune hésiter ,la nourriture est vraiment est super wow très bon !
Service pitoyable. Serveuse absente, aucun suivi, pas de service d'eau. J'ai eu mon verre de vin après mon repas, pas de dessert offert ou de café. J'ai vu des clients quitter car le service était trop long.
Elle nous a apporté les assiettes d'une autre table une fois qu'on avait mangé.
Elle n'est pas à sa place du tout. Attitude nonchalante, aucun empressement.

Tout a été presque parfait, y compris le service. Le bon service a débuté en nous permettant de changer de table avec haute banquette (table que ne permet pas à nos pieds de toucher par terre & créée des malaises aux jambes) pour coller 2 tables classiques plus basses. Très apprécié Merci. Le seul point négatif a été un des 4 repas commandés: la salade de crevettes. Il n'y avait que 4 crevettes & plein de verdure dans la salade dites aux crevettes. Nous avons fait venir la serveuse pour'se plaindre' qui a été immédiatement voir le cuisinier. Elle a rapporté un beau bol rempli de crevettes fraichement cuites à mettre dans la salade, & ce, en s'excusant de la part du resto & nous garantissant que ce'non-supplément' ne serait pas facturé. Les 3 autres repas, y compris la soupe won ton furent dévorés des yeux & de la bouche.
Vraiment un délice chez vous. D'ailleurs, autre point à ne pas négliger dans le bon service, une des 4 personnes n'avait pas commandé de soupe, mais la serveuse en avait une sur son carnet. Elle l'a tout de même remise à la personne en mentionnant qu'elle ne serait pas facturée. Ce fut le cas. Bref, malgré c'est quelques pépins que le resto à su gérer avec doigté-diligeance-& bienveillance envers des clients qui n'y viennent qu'au 3 mois, tout a été délicieux & parfait. Merci au chef, aux serveuses, & au gérant pour cet écoute envers les clients.
This was by far one of the best Asian Resto we have ever been too. Everything was absolutely delicious! We had the edemame, won ton & Tom yum soups, General Tao chicken, Curry Beef & the shrimp pad Thai ! Thank you for an amazing experience cheers to the staff who were awesome ! 10/10
Service & food was excellent overall. Our waitress was very efficient. The price was reasonable for what we had. Food was great as well, with the exception of the imperial rolls which seemed overcooked. The noise level in the restaurant was fine when comparing it to the Boucherville location which is noisier.
