Jasmin Indian Restaurant

This is by far the best Indian restaurants we have been to in Australia. We have been there twice in last 5 months. Every time, we received a warm welcome by the owner. The food quality was awesome. They even gave us an additional complimentary vegetarian dish ( okra dish) which was delectable. The ambience was nice too. Definitely 5 stars for this place.

Food - although portions were relatively small, everything tasted really good, we had the mixed entree to share (would recommend getting it to yourself) and a chicken masala and lamb korma with a garlic naan, everything super super tasty 8/10 Service - waiter and man front of house both very friendly attentive and didn’t wait long on food :) Atmosphere - decor matches the vibes in there feels authentic nice music and lighting would return

Had a great time at Jasmin Indian Restaurant. Nice place to have lunch at the city. Upon arrival greeted by very friendly Leigh. Food was excellent- had Chicken Tikka and Egg Paratha. Restaurant was neat and clean. Highly recommended. Will visit again next time. Thanks again to all team members for the yummy foods.

I can’t express how amazing this restaurant is. The food was absolutely phenomenal and the service went above and beyond anything you’d ever expect. My dad and I came here during our 2 night stop in Adelaide on the first night and decided we didn’t want to eat anywhere else when it came to the last night of our trip. We’d both like to thank all the staff for their generous hospitality and especially Lee whose knowledge and charm made it the best restaurant experience I’ve personally had in any restaurant in Australia. You can see why they’ve been open for so long! Can’t wait for my next trip to SA now!

Jasmin restaurant is in our opinion one of the best Indian restaurants in Adelaide. The entrance is just a doorway in Hindmarsh Square and then what awaits down the stairs is a special surprise. The ambience and service are impeccable along with the delicious Indian cuisine. The staff are amazingly attentive and the mood lighting gives off an old school vibe which given Jasmin is 45 years old is to be expected. We like to go here for special occasion dinners as a treat. On our latest occasion we chose the $62 Feed Me menu which was ample food and we could not fit in dessert. Our special favourite is the Blue Cheese naan which we had included in the Feed Me selection. The Jasmin team also feed the homeless once a week in Hindmarsh Square which is great way they give back to the community. Do yourself a favour and try this delightful hidden gem.

Love love love the restaurant so much. We booked a table for 18 people and able to get a private room. We had so much fun, laughter and enjoyed the meal. We were well fed by the chef with generous portion of food. We had the banquet that was scrumptious and lovely. Everybody loved the naan so much. Really tasty. 😋 Really kind of the staff to cater for little ones and made sure they had their portion well too. Happy belly, happy customers.

Just had the most delicious Indian dinner. Jasmin is authentic, each dish had awonderful mix of herbs and spices. We love our Indian food and this was the best Indian we have had in our 35 years in Australia. You can tell every dish is based on a much loved family recipe. Service was also impeccable. Thank you and bravo to the Jasmin team!

Great place for a quality night with your partner, friends, or even colleagues. You're nicely welcomed by polite staff upon arrival. The food quality and variety are great. Food arrives on time. Totally recommended for a quality evening. One thing to mention though, the Google map photo takes you to Twin street to enter to the restaurant; however, the restaurant is situated behind the Hindmarsh Square Playground.

Jasmin is Adelaide's quiet achiever in Indian cuisine. Family operated for 32 years, they have won dozens of awards for their food. You realise why when you try it. The main dining room is in a basement off Hindmarsh Square. The surrounds are elegant, avoiding any kistch Indian decorations in favour of large artworks of local artists. It is not uncommon for Jasmin to be booked out on Saturday and Sunday, so it's safest to book for your number. While it is on the pricey side, it appeals to diners who love good quality food and wine. The wine list has over 200 options, as well as a good range of beers, spirits, aperitifs and dessert wines. The banquet is a great option, and I recommend it to friends. It consists of five or more entrees, and another five or so main meals. It means you get to try a range of dishes, when it's hard to choose just one. The prawn sambal is always a stand out, but (and I sound like a typical Westerner here) my favourite is the butter chicken. But no, really, it's amazing! They spice it differently, so while it's not hot, it's full of flavour, and the pieces of chicken are enormous and juicy. Every time we go there, there has to be some butter chicken on our table. If undertaking the banquet, when the small bowls of curry come out, you think you've been jipped. Try getting through just one, and you're filling up. Then add the several types of naan (the best are the blue cheese naan and the standard cheese naan) and papadums with chutney and raita, and it's rare to see anyone get through the entire banquet. You groan when the dessert menus come around, though it's worth ordering a coffee or tea, just for the delicious hazelnut/chocolate slice that come with it - one for every table member! I was disappointed that their chai is not authentic, but it's still a nice blend of tea, and a great way to finish an enormous and very tasty meal.

This is the best Indian restaurant I've ever been to outside of India. I got the lamb korma and it was outstanding. My buddy got the chicken tindaloo and it was one of the spiciest dishes either of us have ever tasted. The naan was also quite good and they have kingfisher beer. The atmosphere is somewhat on the fancier side and the staff is attentive and friendly.

THIS is a great restaurant. We came for a late dinner after a dance performance and were treated to a wonderful array of Indian cuisine. Excellent service and food that is so good it's impossible to pick a favorite dish...but I'll try. Tandoori mushrooms. Blue Cheese Naan...a beef dish that's not always on the menu ( kind of a secret dish) that was insanely good. Definitely for all fans of Indian cuisine...and for those wanting a more adventurous version of Indian Food.

Have been here numerous times and this is by far my favourite Indian restaurant in Adelaide. Was recommended to me by people who have been coming here for years. They have a wide range of authentic Indian dishes for all tastes (and 'spiciness'). We typically get the 'feed me- hungry' deal so that we can have a bit of everything and are never disappointed (or left hungry)! Excellent every time, would highly recommend!

One of the best Indian restaurants we have ever eaten in. The tandoori mushrooms starter was excellent. We then shares chicken masala and a curried vegetable dish. Both excellent! We would recommend this restaurant to anyone who enjoys good food!

A shangri-la of epic treats and exquisite service awaits as you traverse the steps into the Jasmin. It has all the charm of a Parisian café, the quiet uncertainty of a turkish opium den and the hospitality clout to rival any decent restaurant in Adelaide (perhaps Australia...?) I like it as spicy as possible and the chef here knows how to pack a decent heat punch in the curries. However the heat never takes away from the quality of the meat and veggies served. The standard indian fare is as far from standard as is possible. Absolutely smashing entrees including onion bhaji amd samosas with the lime green mint dipping sauce sets the perfect scene for an astonishing main, be it lunch or dinner. The wine to go with the epic feasty treats is always served with such skill you wouldn't even know there's a waiter there. ..and that's certainly true after a couple of bottles. If you can find the entrance (haha!) I would say you can't go wrong getting in on this higher end indian treat. I will keep going here as long as they keep it spicy!

Amazing Indian! Went there with the bf for our anniversary and it was just perfect. Great ambiance, brilliant food, great service and amazing wine list. Definitely a winner for a special occasion.

Pricey + Average food=Poor value. Most shocking was a single gulab jamun with a few bites of ice cream for over $10. I've been to a few Indian restaurants since and never has the gulab jamun been more than $5 and that's for more than one ball! (Tasted just as good, too) The naan was also half the size of naan at most other restaurants I've been to (though it cost the same). It's obviously trying to see how much it can charge based on the awards it's received. The mains we had were OK. Not too impressed with the palak paneer or butter chicken. I'm sure you can find a place that's just as good, but with better prices.

Everyone ends up at Jasmin at some time. It's one of Adelaide's most well known and well regarded mid-range restaurants, serving slightly up-market Indian Cuisine. Prices are above average, quality is above average, service is above average. That sums it up really - Jasmin is above average... It's safe to go back to time and time again for business dinners and before shows. You'll never be disappointed, but don't expect to be thrilled either. I'd have no hesitation about taking someone who was new to, or nervous about Indian food to Jasmin, but it's not somewhere I'd take a foodie to. Food: 88% Service: 88% Atmosphere: 87%

All I can say is we wanted Indian Cuisine and we left completely and utterly satisfied. Service was top quality Food was incredible and I reccomend anyone, even those who don't like spicy to give it a go. 1/4/15

Great place to go in Adelaide ! In Adelaide for the first time ? Total foreigner ? Thousands of miles from home ? Enter the Jasmin, order the Feed me menu (around 49Au$ if you are hungry, some 58Au$ if you are starving), asked for suitable wines by the glas and you`ll feel at home at once. Not only that the food quality is excellent, that the wine fits without prices going over the top, its the warm and friendly service, which makes you look forward to your next trip downunder to Adelaide. And taken into account, how packed the restaurant was, I guess the local people feel the same.

The food was excellent. There were wines available that worked well with the food. The staff was knowledgeable and courteous. The ambiance was pleasant. The total experience was delightful.

Great place to eat. Comfortable, well decorated with attentive and knowledgeable staff. Food is superb and priced right for the quality of the surroundings and the location.

Looks like the cook was sleeping when he prepared chicken tindaloo. I have barely had 3 spoons of this disgusting stuff...being an Indian i can clearly make sense of spices and chillies.... And i can tell you without eating the rest of the food, that the food is hotter then the Assamese chillie. Its handful of Chillies thrown in with chicken fried in a pan and some Madras masala added. If you want to eat authentic Indian food.....you would be better off trying elsewhere ...definitely not this place..... They have no freakin clue what they are doing... Still wanna try .... Go burn yourself... I would rather eat Mac Donalds junk then try such stupid food..... What a disgrace to Indian cuisine!!! Like they say in Rome do what the Romans do... For Indian food ask an Indian Food junkie!! Piece of advise... If you are looking for pickle.. then i can recommend this place... only problem being..... you might have to add some preservatives... Their main course tastes like pickle.... Never in my life have I tasted such CRAP food! You have been warned!!

We were looking for some good Indian food and our hotel concierge told us not to miss Jasmin - and thank god we didn't miss it!!!! Amazing food!!! Amazing service!!!!! If we didn't live in Chicago, we would be back weekly!!!

this place is another gem in Adelaide. the food was fresh.. good. and tasty as all get out. the butter chicken was fab and saga was incredible too.. its a little on the pricey side but for a night out. I think its well worth it..
