Jasmine House Chinese Restaurant — Restaurant in Melbourne

Go there if you want to feel unwanted in a restaurant -

We were there last night to celebrate a birthday dinner just to be greeted by an extremely rude lady who mentioned even before we sat down that the restaurant closes in 1 hour so we better be quick. She was back in a couple of minutes asking if we were ready to order, we requested a few minutes to go through the entire menu and she again went on a rant that the place will close down and that she needs to leave by 9:30 and can extend it to us till 9:45 but will get into trouble with her boss and thus we need to hurry up. We decided to get the entree order going till we decide on mains and she went on for the third time that we need to hurry up and place the entire order at one go and stood at the table for the entire time till we ordered. Once ordered, the food came really quick but from the time we got the food she kept on looking at us .. making the whole experience uncomfortable.

It would have been better if we were told the kitchen had closed instead of going through such service.

Absolutely appalled with the service and the fact that our celebratory dinner left such a bad taste in our mouth.

Subsequently read similar reviews too about the said person ...so definitely not going there again... and good luck to you if after reading this far you've made a choice...

Had dinner with friends here a couple of weeks ago, we were all very disappointed with the service. Entrees came out 40 minutes apart with no explanation or regard and mains 15 minutes between 1 meal and the remaining 3 to arrive. Drinks were taken away and staff never thought to ask if we would like another. For a main I ordered a Chicken Laksa although tasty, half way through eating my meal I discovered a piece of calamari. Staff brushed off the incident as a busy evening and thought nothing of it. Luckily I have no food allergies as this could have been a medical emergency in the making. We will not...

A really good restaurant.... The seafood noodles were delicious, so were the vegie spring rolls.... The kids loved the honey chicken and lemon chicken and my wife's salt and pepper tofu was perfectly seasoned with a good hit of chilli.... The disappointing dish was the kung poa chicken, needs to have more of a chilli kick I asked for extra chilli and still had to add some chilli oil to it to bring it up to the right spice level.... Also it was more kung poa veggies than chicken....

But I would definitely come back again to try more of...
