They recently changed their menu. Very few GF options now, and some items marked as GF in the menu are not actually gluten free. I had to change my order 3 times because they mislabeled GF items in the menu. And when my order was finally ready, it came with a piece of bread. I had to send it back again. On top of that, the service was very slow. Do not recommend. It used to be much better.

Menù con proposte senza glutine ben chiare. Personale gentile e attento alle esigenze del cliente. Ho provato il Pad Thai con il pollo molto buono, un pochino piccantino per i miei gusti personali. Ottimo rapporto qualità/prezzo. Molto bella la location

Amazing and tested Gluten Free! They were very knowledgeable about Celiac disease. Explained how sick cross contamination can make us. They were amazing! Order the shrimp sesame. It was DELICIOUS! Tested it with out Nima Gluten Free sensor and it was GF!!!! We always test because the slightest contamination can make us sick for hours… so happy we found this place and great location downtown!

Ils connaissent bien le menu et font attention. Je n’ai jamais eu de problème après plusieurs visites au Sésame même si je suis sensible à la moindre contamination au gluten. Je recommande ce restaurant. C’est très bon!

They menu is labeled with GF options. I had a great meal and did not get sick.

I tried Sesame due to being hungry and lack of options around the area (their menu states eat at your own risk if you are celiac or have an allergy because of cross contamination).

Our waitress understood I needed my meal gluten free and documented it on the order. I had the Tom Yum Soup with chicken and the Coco Thai Shrimp Poke Bowl. Both were delicious.

We have been here a few times with my boyfriend who is celiac. He has never been sick and the items that are Gluten Free are indicated on the menu. The food is delicious.

The waiter accidentally gave another guest dish to my daughter who has celiac! She had a bite and I saw noodle! I asked the waiter to explain what was the ingredients and he realized he gave the wrong dish! This is a very serious issue to someone who has issue with gluten! And waiter said “oh I gave the wrong dish” and I told him my daughter had a bite and the waiter said “so?”. The restaurant needs to educate the people work here better about the food allergy issue! Someone could get really really sick with certain food! This is not celiac friendly!

I'm not sure why this place is so highly rated here. I arrived very hungry and stayed out of desperation even after seeing the CC warning on their menu, in part because the app vouched for it. Service was incredibly slow and not very aware of gluten or CC, and had never heard of celiac. I felt sick after eating here, but it was not my usual symptoms, so I can't guarantee I was glutened. What I can guarantee was that it was terrible service and the food was mediocre at best. My gluten eating family members agree.

If have you Celiac Disease, then be careful.

Dished are cooked in the same woks; strong possibility of cross-contamination. No dedicated fryer.

However, soups and salads are safe and yummy!

Staff was helpful!

Be sure to inform server of food allergy!!

Great GF options, though a bit limited. Chicken wings, soup, spring rolls and curried dishes all very tasty. Would definitely go back.
