Jazmine Cafe

We have been coming to this restaurant for over ten years. Definitely a family favorite. Delicious food and stellar service. Highly recommend it.

I ordered delivery from jazmine tonight and was deeply upset. I’ve eaten at jazmine before and thought the food was average and the prices extremely high but tonight it was the only open asain restaurant nearby so I gave it another shot.
My vegetable noodle soup arrived without tofu as was in the description. I called to tell them and a lady answered and all she said was «well tell the kitchen». No refund was offered. I then had to call back and explain my situation to another man, all the while I could here the same lady in the background complaining about my calling back. She then got on the phone and after asking her for a refund offered me only $ 2.15 back, the price of the tofu. She later called back and told me she could only offer me $ 1 back as that was the actual price of the tofu. As a worker in the food industry, this was unheard of to me. If a restaurant messes up, offer more to the customer than just what you messed up.
Overall incredibly cheap people with bad customer service and average food. Take your business elsewhere to other asian cuisine places in the neighborhood with better food and service.

If you’re looking for something different, this is the place to go. The Vietnamese po boy is EVERYTHING!!!

We started off with the spicy tuna spring roll which was very good. The tuna and cucumber were very fresh and the spice was perfect. I had the pineapple crunchy salad and pork bahn mi. The salad was disappointing is was small had canned pineapple and very little of it and nothing crunchy. The salad did have good flavor but I wouldn’t recommend it. My gf Han the pork noodle bowl that was very good.

Ate there for the first time today and it was really good! Got the egg noodle soup with wontons. I’ve had bubble tea here before but never stayed to eat. I’m pleasantly surprised it was so good; I’ll definitely be back. I will say that I ordered spring rolls (lemongrass chicken and crab) and I was not really that impressed with them. I like shrimp and avocado spring rolls, but the flavor combo of lemongrass chicken, or the crab salad that was in there (I thought it would just be crab without the mayo salad stuff) just didn’t do it for me. I’ve had the bubble tea here before (green tea, today got a thai tea) and it’s been good every time.

Great service. I loved their Phở, it was flavorful with lots of fresh ingredients. It was a huge portion for a great price. Will definitely be back and recommend to others.

Conveniently located and consistently good. I love the Phở, Bahn Mi and the extensive list of fresh spring rolls. With reasonable prices and quick service Jazmine is easily and everyday favorite for solid Vietnamese favorites.

I tried really hard to like this place. However,… My phở broth was SO. OILY and greasy. I ate the vegetables and called it a day.
The service was good, and the price is right. But, the food was subpar. Which makes me sad, because I think it could be such a great spot!
Hopefully it was a bad night for broth, but my neighbor warned me AFTER I ordered (via text) that he would be surprised if I liked it but hopefully they had improved.

I’ve always loved modern vietnamese food, so when I heard about jazmine, I had to go. People told me it was a cheap and great destination for fantastic vietnamese food. The spring rolls, notably the snow crab roll, were delicious, but I cannot say the same for the entrée.
I ordered the grilled chicken vermicelli bowl. The sauces (one spicy, one isn’t) were great and the noodles were fine, but the chicken was off. A lot of the chicken was gray and had a funky taste, so I barely touched it. Overall, the rolls seem fine, but I was not a fan of the bowl.
The place is great for fast and moderately priced vietnamese food but I cannot say I had the best experience.

Took my teen daughter on a date to Jazmine because she is getting into noodle soups. Our waitress was very helpful making suggestions on the spring rolls and the soups. Portions were huge. Clean, friendly and reasonably priced.

This is such a great little spot for lunch! A friend and I decided to eat here, as I had passed this place many times and really didn’t know anything about it, other than it is a Vietnamese restaurant.
I got here around 1 and the place was empty, except for one guy sitting alone and eating a bowl of Phở. The menu sounded so good! They have a HUGE selection of spring rolls of all types. I could definitely see myself just making a meal out of 3 spring roll orders, but today I just decided to try the spicy salmon spring roll. I also got a pork noodle bowl salad, because I was trying to keep it a little bit light.
The spicy salmon spring roll was so good! It was unique in the sense that I don’t think I have ever had anything like it. It’s raw salmon and vermicelli wrapped with some sriracha. It had a lot of kick and was really good after I added a bit of soy sauce to it. The noodle bowl was large and delicious. There were large slices of pork on top of a generous amount of noodles, lettuce and cucumber. It was the perfect meal for a warm September day.
I really enjoyed my lunch here. Like I said, I could have easily made a meal out of the spring rolls– they have the largest spring roll selection that I have seen, so if that’s your thing, check it out.
I’ll be back!

Always good, occasionally great. Inexpensive. Solid phở, always good. Now they have a spring roll bar. Jasmine Café is a good choice for us if we don’t feel like cooking, don’t want to break the bank, and don’t want a big production. If you like Vietnamese food, then eat here. Best phở this side of Chef Menteur.

I liked the modern ambience, which was very comfortable. Phở here is enormous, just like most places, and very good. It is served with sprouts, lime, and jalapeños. Also, bubble tea is available which is always pretty fun.

Went for a quick lunch of phở tai (beef noodle soup) with my girls. Started with some pan fried dumplings which were good but nothing special. The soup was a large portion with noodles, sliced beef and usual sides of herbs, bean sprouts, and lime. Service was a bit slow but fine. All good but basic.

Excellent location, friendly staff, and delicious cuisine makes for an enchanting spot in Riverbend. True bubble tea (with tapioca pearls) accompanies an eclectic oriental menu, including Thai and sushi.
The ambiance is artsy yet casual, exceptionally welcoming. Many guests arrive from stepping-​off the historic St Charles Street Car.
Come in and stay awhile.

Jazmine offers a wider selection of menu than most other Vietnamese restaurants. Selections have that light, flavorful taste typical of Vietnamese food. They have an exceptional collection of spring rolls. Portions are generous, but light. It loos iLife a local favorite, as it was busy, but not packed at lunch. It is just off the streetcar line, convenient for tourists. It is also a refreshing contrast to the burger and beer establishments in the area. For South Asian restaurants, this is my new favorite in New Orleans for food and convenience of location. I can’t speak to its authenticity, but it is good food, service, and atmosphere. Highly recommended!

Pretty solid phở — not the best in the city, but I get it often because they’re the only decent Vietnamese delivery in Uptown. If you’re heading out to eat, I’d recommend looking into other places, but if you don’t feel like leaving the couch, Jazmine Café will get the job done for a decent price.

Everything that I got was falsely advertised. Crunchy salad consisted of slimy noodles, mushy cucumbers, and mushy pineapples. The bubble tea was not tea. It was a smoothie. I got the watermelon flavor but it tasted like honeydew. The house soup says it comes with cilantro lettuce and noodles. Lol. The soup had two pathetic pieces of lettuce in it. For the rolls, I ordered the snow crab spring roll. They used imitation meat. But they also have an imitation meat roll. I wonder what they use for that!
Now for the service review. When I told the server something about the crunchy salad they laughed and said «most people like it» and did not remove it from the bill. We had a different person approach the table each time. Which was a total of 4 people. Never will I be returning.

The bun comes with a clear soup.
Had bun with egg rolls and pork,
There was clear soup as an appetizer — it was tasty.
The bun itself was rather bland which I attribute to a really tasteless fish sauce. The BBQ pork was was not — just some sliced cooked pork (or what ever meat)
Not the complex flavors I love and appreciate with bun.. rating it as mediocre.

I wasn’t sure how I’d feel about a Vietnamese food place that also serves sushi, I have to say that I was impressed. I haven’t tried the sushi (still a little gun-​shy), but the Vietnamese food has been flavorful, hitting all of the sweet, savory, sour, spicy notes as they should.
The sliced grilled pork with rice has just the right amount of carmelized, sweet/​savory goodness, with a touch of garlic. The veggies are crunchy, and the rice is hot and sticky. You still feel light after this meal, but it’s filling. If I had to choose, I liked the grilled pork over rice more than the grilled pork with vermicelli noodles (bun).
The phở tai has a deep broth and you’re given plenty of basil leaves and cilantro, as well as all the slice jalapeño and bean sprouts you need. Served piping hot whether you eat at the restaurant or take out, the soup is comforting, flavorful, and filling.
The service is extremely friendly, and you never have to wait long. If you enjoy bubble tea, there’s a decent selection — I’m excited to try the watermelon slush once the weather warms up.
