" Sesamo is full of potential, but sadly, it fell short for me. The ambiance was nice and cozy, but I found the food did not meet expectations. I had the nigiri and it was average at best, with no notable flavors. The matcha tiramisu was a nice twist, but overall, the dessert did not impress either. The service was attentive, but I expected more innovativeness from the food given the praised fusion aspect. Would try again but need to manage expectations accordingly. " (*Curated Review*)

" What an amazing restaurant! From start to finish, everything was perfect. I had the coconut miso salmon and it was absolutely delicious, not too heavy but packed with flavor. The service was impeccable. Our waiter was incredibly enthusiastic and kept checking if everything was to our liking without being intrusive. The ambiance is intimate and makes for a wonderful dining experience. Definitely a place to visit again soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a memorable experience at Sesamo! The service was impeccable from the moment we walked in. The atmosphere is very warm, with an intimate setting that's great for dining. The food was delicious; I had the coconut miso salmon and it was perfectly cooked. My partner tried the spicy chicken parmesan, which he enjoyed as well. It felt great to dine somewhere that pays attention to both flavor and service. " (*Curated Review*)

" A hidden gem in Hell's Kitchen! Sesamo captures a fusion of tastes I haven't seen elsewhere. The Nigiri was fresh and flavorful while the duck ragu pappardelle was rich and hearty. Our bartender was very friendly and made some great cocktail recommendations. The ambiance is inviting and is perfect for a dinner with friends. I'll definitely be returning for that matcha tiramisu! " (*Curated Review*)

" Sesamo was a new place for my friends and me, and we walked out completely satisfied. The ambiance is perfect for an intimate dinner. I opted for the fried artichokes as a starter, which were crispy and flavorful! For my main, the pappardelle was rich and hearty, although I thought it could’ve been spiced just a tad more. Overall, wouldn't hesitate to recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for good food and a warm atmosphere. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Sesamo last Saturday for dinner, and it was nothing short of spectacular! The ambiance is warm and inviting, perfect for a date night. Our server was attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. I ordered the duck ragu pappardelle, which was wonderfully rich and full of flavor, while my partner enjoyed the truffle lasagna that was both decadent and comforting. The highlight was definitely the dessert, the Matcha tiramisu which had a lovely balance of sweetness and bitterness. I'll certainly be returning! " (*Curated Review*)

" Oh what a charming restaurant! Sesamo offers a delightful blend of Asian and Italian cuisine that was unexpectedly wonderful. I tried several dishes and each one presented a lovely balance of flavors. The coconut miso salmon was impressive! Our waiter treated us like royalty, and the atmosphere is perfectly suited for a lovely night out. Would definitely come back! " (*Curated Review*)
