Jasmine Thai Cuisine — Restaurant in Los Angeles

Ate here for the first time today and it exceeded my expectations!

When you first enter Jasmine Thai you are greeted by a beautiful fountain wall which, with its beautiful bronze inlay, really sets the tone for your dining experience.

This is a lovely restaurant with beautiful decor, really an upscale ambiance with very reasonable prices. From the walls to the table linens, Jasmine Thai sets the tone for a high quality dining experience with food that is as good as the atmosphere. I had the Yellow Curry with chicken and shrimp, while my wife had the honey, pepper and garlic with chicken and shrimp. What I really liked about Jasmine Thai was that the dishes were named/labeled by their spices and you just chose the meats. For example, my order on the menu just said "Yellow Curry" and at the bottom of the description of what spices were used was a list of meats for the dish... in this case, I went with chicken and shrimp as noted above

The shrimp were nice and plump in both mine and my wife's dishes and the curry was spiced just right. Now, I'll qualify this statement with the fact that I've never been to Thailand but curry of all kinds is my favorite dish so I've eaten a lot of Thai curry and this is some of the best coconut milk based Thai curry I've eaten. The sweet coconut milk in this curry was well balanced by the pepper flakes and other spices which produced a pleasing warmth. We also had an appetizer of chicken dumplings. They were delicious as well!

We'll be going back at night because this place looks like it will be delightful...

Porter Ranch location, it’s our go to Thai place since moving to the area a year ago. Dine in is good with friendly service cool atmosphere. We mostly order for pick up or delivery. Consistent with flavors, food is freshly made. Prices start around $10 for appetizers & go up from there. A la cate meals Can add up quick. On average for us $25+ per person, but depending on the dish can make 2 or more meals out of it. The food is good or we wouldn’t keep going back. It’s very convenient & fast. Food is prepared on average within 15 - 20 minutes. A bit pricey overall but also depending on the dish. Example; $10 fried tofu appetizer it’s not much in volume for the price & tofu is a very cheap food item. Or the dumplings appetizer (very delicious, but salty), $12 + for 4 - 6 pieces. Yes we’ve gotten 4 pieces, 5 pieces, & even 6 pieces it seems to change with each order, menu doesn’t state how many in one order. Not a good value. Order a rice or noodle dish for take out and 2 - 3 meals out for one person or great to share with 3 people. It’s great if your ordering in want something yummy & fast and don’t...
