Editorial Review for Jasmine Bistro – by Citysearch Editors
In Short
The menu at this popular, family-run restaurant reflects the owners personal (Afghanistan, Pakistan) and professional (the now-closed Cafe Budapest) backgrounds. Jasmine's chef must feel like Marco Polo, creating a Madras-style curry for one dish, a Pakistani yogurt curry for another. Vegetarians are well served, and oenophiles get to enjoy rare Hungarian reds. For dessert, options include a pear poached in cardamom water and served with a white chocolate and caramel sauce.

This place is really neat. The waiter is actually the chef, and came out and chatted with us (which was terrific) and offered wine suggestions before taking our order. Very unique menu, and the food turned out to be perfect for people( like myself) that are looking for good flavors without a lot of grease or nasty stuff... I think he uses a lot of spices ( low calories ladies!!) instead of butter and salt which is great . Too bad he put a basket of the most amazing buttered french bread on the table, and all my health concious decisions went out the window!!! Definately worth the trip.... I just hope too many people dont start pouring in, because I didnt have to wait for my table at 7:30 PM and I love that.....
Pros: Unique menu, great service, low calorie but flavorful options

This place is unbelievable. They served the most unblievable potato leek soup. The red snapper was amazing and the service was outstanding. Their homemade desserts left me overwhelmed. I sat and relaxed and never felt rushed and the whole family served me. It was amazing. It was high end with out the snobery. I couldn't believe what I was seeing ....and eating Check this place out and you will not be disapointed! I can't wait to go back there!
Pros: good parking, public transport, great service
Cons: can't think of any cons
