Jasmine 26 Hot Pot Restaurant and Bar

Enjoyed the Lunar New Year menu with my husband. I could not recommend this place more! Good sake selection and a variety of cocktails. The vegan cream cheese wontons & egg rolls were the perfect starters. The caramelized shitakes & mock duck was ooey gooey deliciousness. My husband particularly enjoyed the crispy basket of noodles filled with tofu and stir-fried vegetables. The vegan grilled chicken was like nothing I've ever had. This 'meat' is made in house and the chef said it was developed from a vegan pork belly recipe they had. It has the texture and taste of pork belly, and was absolutely out of this world wrapped in lettuce with some crispy veggies. But the star of the evening was the warm mochi in ginger syrup. They should seriously bottle and sell this sauce! I'm dying to try it on ice cream! The mochi was sumptuously soft and and ginger syrup was so rich it almost tasted like drinking a ginger butter sauce. You've GOT to try it! Thank you for a lovely evening--we both look forward to coming back soon!

I've been visiting Jasmine 26 Hot Pot since they've opened. In addition to delicious food in general, they're vegan friendly! Try their vegan cream cheese wontons and ask for a custom spicy strawberry margarita. They're amazing!

The food was excellent! The owners are incredibly kind and made us feel right at home. Simple things like pouring the hot tea for you really shows the attention and care you can expect. I had the Lemongrass Chicken which was so tender and flavorful, as well as tasty egg rolls with thin crispy wrap, chicken satay with really good peanut sauce, and the Sichuan green beans in garlic with carrots and onions. The portions are very sizeable and so we got to enjoy really tasty leftovers the next day! I am excited to come back and try the hotpot!

This is a fantastic spot for vegans and vegetarians! I got the spicy Szechwan broth veganized, and the meat in the set was replaced with tofu. My partner got the pad Thai with tofu, with the option to remove the egg. Very yummy and the broth was actually spicy!! Great service and the decor is very pleasant.

What a true gem in Minneapolis. We need to support this place and show it lots of love! You can taste the love in the food. Service with a huge smile and great knowledge and interaction. Genuinely and actively making certain you are comfortable and well fed. The hot pots are so bursting with flavor!! And it’s a fun experience. My mom had the pad thai which smelled and looked phenomenal. Terrific ribs and variety. And fresh bubbly fruit drinks that refresh. Wonderful art and pristinely clean place. So good. Good people good food great place. Go again and again. Parking is easy and you will feel welcome. Everyone in our group was pleased and every bite amazing.

Highly recommend for gluten free folks! I’ve never found safe hot pot before and it was delicious!! Most of their hot pot menu is gf and there are a good number of gf options on their regular menu. They don’t have a dedicated gf fryer so avoid fried stuff if you’re really sensitive to cc like I am. The staff was so nice and helpful! The owner checked in on us a couple of times as well! Good vibes all around & yummy/safe food! I’ll definitely be back!

I'm sure that this restaurant makes really good dishes but their application of Hot pot really misses the mark. No explanation that it wasn't a la carte Hot pot where I could pick any ingredients the only choice was the choice of noodle base. The broth was well made, I did enjoy that but I think it missed the entire point of hot pot. The Valentine's Day special was very inconsistent and kind of a disaster. It was a very small hot pot special with one small pot for two people. The spring rolls are pretty good. However the shaken sizzling beef tray really needs to be reworked. That dish is a decent beef stir fry however inexplicably it is served with 80% of the dish being unseasoned waffle fries that get soggy almost immediately. Both me and my partner were confused by the waffle fries on the dish and it being a special none of the courses were given a description beyond the name of the dish. Waffle fries and beef stir fry together is just not a coherent idea and rather than being a sort of fusion cuisine that is greater than the sum of its parts it's kind of worse than the sum of its parts. The tamarind whiskey sour was also pretty bad it arrived unmixed with 90% of the volume of the drink being commercial ice machine ice. Not worth $14.

I think there’s a lesson in every food experience you have and hot pot teaches you the art of patience. Broth was amazing and the food that came with it was as delicious. The iced Vietnamese coffee was 100/10 and gave us the energy boost we needed after an enjoyable meal. Left rolling out of there with smiles on our faces. Thank you and will be back!!

Amazing, warm food with generous portions. The staff was super friendly. I've never had hot pot with individual pots, and I thought it was super useful. It works great for a group with different food restrictions so people can really tailor their own pot with what they want. Couldn't recommend this place enough!

Jeremy was attentive and provided excellent service! This place has Individual hotpots, but it could easily be shared, especially if you order more stuff. Tom kha was delicious - the flavor was IT. Sichuan spicy was excellent. I love that numbing feeling. Coconut cream cheese wontons and egg rolls *drool emoji* Ginger mojito was good, and the Plum soju was, as usual, perfection Clean, fairly quiet. Would recommend!

What a great experience with delicious food. The wait staff was superb and very attentive. The options were great with the ability to make your own hot pot and cook the food in front of you adding whatever vegetables and meats you want to use. It's just so fun to experience it! Try it.

We had so much fun here! We usually love going to communal pot hot pot at the Asia Mall, but with just three of us, we opted to try Jasmine 26. SERVICE/STAFF: The #1 thing that stands out to me about our experience was the family that owns and operates this business. The owner came to our table to check on us and get to know us a few times, her nephew waited on us and was so amazing, one of the family members bartends and others are involved. THIS is exactly the kind of family owned business I love to support and come back to again and again! AMBIANCE: The space is soooo well decorated. I couldn't help but take lots of photos! They even have a vespa as a photo op/decor - how cute! FOOD: It was a cold winter night, so we were hype about getting hot pot. We each ordered a different broth, got our individual pots, then ordered menu items a la carte. They offer "package" options but we decided to make our own lineup. Favorites for hot pot always include: quail egg enoki mushroom potato ramen noodles sliced meat cabbage lotus root They also brought us some sauces that we absolutely LOVED! I loved their tofu skin, watercress, soba noodles, corn, and rice noodles here. The service and hot pot were stand-out and we'll definitely be back :)

Food was great! Lots of good options including vegan and vegetarian. It was fun to share a couple hot pots with friends. Service was friendly and the space was beautiful! Great for the cold weather :)

We have the Szechuan spicy broth. The broth was super great! The service was amazing as well! The only thing is the price was a little higher compared with other hotpot places. Overall was a good place to try.

The staff are amazingly talented and professional and care about the whole experience. Food is phenomenal. They

Went with 6 other girlfriends last night for dinner. It was a great place , fun and tasty. We had little idea what hot pot. The waiter who was charming had more them patience for us older women. Every question was answered and explained very well. Later the manager, Lee came out and spent quite a while with us, helping us cook our food. I chose to order Al a carte and probably ordered too many vegetables. I started with the chicken seafood broth and noodle combination and beef with added veggies. It was very tasty. We all had so much fun. It was so different from anything we have done before. The parking is a bit hard but well worth the work.

This was a fun experience. You select one of five hot pot options and then can add on with various proteins, veggies and sauces. We also ordered the egg rolls and one hot pot plus the app and would have been enough for the two of us. It felt like I was making a potion putting all the ingredients together. A cool interactive meal. There weren't many of us in the restaurant yet we were left by our server for about 40 minutes. We had to ask for our check and ended up being late for our show. Another worker helped us pay and package up our leftovers and was quick and pleasant. My only other complaint is the lack of knowledge by our server. We had a couple of questions which she didn't know the answer to. Rather than seeking the correct information she told us incorrect information.

I was a bit surprised, but this place passed the Viet parents vibe check! I think there's something for everyone, but this review is for the Viet homies looking for more traditional, homecooked flavors. I am also incorporating feedback from my very picky parents. Sorry I forgot to take photos! DON'T JUDGE THE MENU TOO HARD We were a bit nervous about the absence of the Viet restaurant classics, but in their defense they don't explicitly advertise as a Viet restaurant. We asked lots of questions and learned the Vietnamese names of some of the dishes, which was helpful. SUPERB CUSTOMER SERVICE The folks who run the restaurant are SUPER friendly and chill. The interactions weren't weird or forced, and we didn't feel like anyone was trying to sell us anything. I don't need exceptional customer service like that, but in this case it really added to the experience! VEGETARIAN AND VEGAN FRIENDLY This is a very vegetarian and vegan friendly establishment. If you're not sure what your options are, just ask. The uncle told us they're very accomodating and can make veg versions of pretty much anything on the menu. OUR FAVORITES: Vietnamese coffee / cà phê sữa đá: you can tell the coffee was slow dripped properly. It had depth of flavor and wasn't too watery. It was the correct shade of brown (IYKYK), which is an indicator of good coffee to condensed milk ratio. Condiments: my parents really respect their chili oil and sauce game. Well made condiments can make or break a meal, so I thought this was worth mentioning. Pickled vegetables: came with the ribs entree. Nice balance of sweet and sour, and good texture. I also liked that it wasn't just pickled carrots and daikon. Vietnamese grilled ribs / cơm sườn: Nice and sticky, caramelized meat, perfectly charred. A lot of Viet restaurants only serve pork chops (which I like too) so ribs is a treat! Bánh khọt: a rare find in our local Vietnamese restaurant scene! They're savory mini pancakes topped with shrimp and scallion oil, and you eat them with veggies, herbs, and dipping sauce (nước chấm). Crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside. I loved how coconuty the batter was. Creamy coconut noodles / bánh tầm: another rare find around these parts! This is a sweet and savory dish from Vietnam's Mekong Delta region. Traditionally, it comes with shredded pork rinds, but the uncle told us they left it out to accomodate more American palates. I don't think it blew my mom's mind, but she was happy just to see it on the menu and eat it. I enjoyed it, although it's more of a snack/sort-of dessert as opposed to a filling meal. If you're not familiar with this flavor profile, I would recommend ordering other things as well so your dining experience doesn't hinge on this lesser known dish. Seafood hotpot: there aren't many Vietnamese hotpot options out here! Sure, you can get bigger bang for your buck elsewhere, but if you specifically want Vietnamese or Southeast Asian hotpot this is a solid choice. The broth alone was very flavorful, filling, and comforting. The seafood was on the same level as other hotpot places I've been to around here.

At this point I am comfortable referring to this as my favorite restaurant in Minneapolis. They've reopened after a pandemic-era hiatus, and now they are an awesome hot pot restaurant! I loved their food before, but now that they are making hot pot the centerpiece of their menu I have even more reasons to recommend them. They have five specific hot pot options, which you can customize and add to. I'm all about the Sichuan Spicy Beef, but I recently brought a strictly-vegan friend here and he raved about the Herbal Vegan Tofu hot pot. They also have the same Salt and Pepper Tofu appetizer that I've loved for years. A lot of restaurants have good service, but there are very few places I've been to in my life where the staff were as likeable as this group. In addition to being extremely professional (visits from the chef, checking on your satisfaction, are normal here in my experience), they feel like neighbors. My friends and I feel sincerely liked by everyone here. And the sauces! They have several sauce options, and they have some new recipies which are impressive! The spiciest ones are VERY spicy, but whether you like the spice level or not, the variety and quality is awesome. The decor is really nice; they've gone to a lot of effort to make this a pleasant environment to spend time. If you're new to hot pot, this is probably the best way to be introduced to this immersive (good word choice there eh?) dining experience. They will guide you and make sure you're "doing it right". I just can't recommend this restaurant highly enough. This is definitely where you and your friends should go have a meal.

I'm really torn with how to feel about Jasmine 26. The space has been really nicely updated with all new decor and tables, the service was outstandingly warm and welcoming, and the food was high quality and tasted great. Easy 5 stars it would seem! The issue is pricing here. Each personal hotpot starts at ~$20, and comes with a small plate of meat, noodles, and veggies depending on which one you order. We tried the Tom Yum and Classic Szechuan broths, and both were great. If you have a modest appetite and are ok with how the sets come as-is, I'd say it's a strong value. However, upgrading to all-beef (beef and chicken mixed is standard) is an upcharge, and since the base comes with only 7 pieces of beef, you'll likely want to order another plate for ~$5. If any appetizers or a drink catch your eye, you're looking at $45 out the door--typical hotpot pricing--for a fairly small number of items by hotpot standards. If Jasmine 26 existed in a vacuum where you couldn't go to other all you can eat hot pots in the city (Little Szechuan on University or Kung Fu hotpot also in Uptown) for a similar price, or other personal pot places (Tasty Pot in Dinkytown) for half that price, I'd recommend this wholeheartedly. As it stands, unless you really want to try some of the Vietnamese-inspired broths, Jasmine 26 doesn't offer the best value proposition. I have no issue spending a lot on food, but when other places do it better and cheaper, it's tough to feel good about it. I truly hope they do well with this new concept though, as the service was truly fantastic and I love to see the growth of restaurants like this in the city.

Food here is great! Came here because wanted to try hotpot's and saw it online. The appetizers and cocktails are definitely the stars of my mean in my opinion. Every side was savory and full of flavor. The pineapple drink was so refreshing. I will definitely be retuning for more of their sides and drinks. Service was very kind and walked me though what hot pot was and how to order. I would definitely bring someone on a date here or come with 3-6 friends. It's family friendly but the cocktails and sides make a great hang out spot with bites. Parking can be tough but back roads will have parking, you just have to look!

We had such a great experience at Jasmine 26! The decor is modern and clean. We made a reservation for a party of 8. We started appetizers with Coconut Cream Cheese Wontons. They were sweet and crispy with a nice coconut flavor. We all had our individual hot pots- I went with the spicy Szechuan and egg noodles- spicy yet delicious! The included beef, chicken, and veggies were all I needed, but there were plenty of a la carte items as well. Staff was incredible. We'll be back!

LOVE THIS PLACE! The food is always amazing the staff there is super friendly and knowledgeable. Ive brought a handful of people who have never tried (or heard) of hot pot before they always are willing to help! On top of that the decor and whole ambiance is a great place to go for causal time with friends or birthday celebration

We wanted to go out for hot pot. Most people in our group had never done it before. We picked Jasmine because we could get individual hot pots and everyone could have the spice level they wanted, the broth they wanted. The staff was very friendly, several different people coming to check on us a few times during the meal. They were chatty and fun. The food was delicious. We all tried different things, some had beef, some had, seafood,some had chicken. There are plenty of vegetarian options, and you can customize what you want in your hot pot. We had some green beans for an appetizer and a few in our group. Don't like anything spicy so we ordered them mild. Even so they had a lot of flavor. For those that wanted to spice it up a little, there were sides of a few different sauces. The restaurant itself is attractive. It is also quiet enough that we could all hear one another talk. I would definitely go back.

The food, the service, the ambiance, the flavor of it all keeps you coming back for more. I've been going to Jasmine 26 for over a year pretty consistently and it's one I always recommend to friends, family, and strangers. They're vegan and gluten free options are a 10/10. This coming from a vegan who's 8 years strong. If you love spicy food, upon special request they're willing to go the extra mile to give you Xxtra spicy food. The staff know my order so well they can always guess what I'm going to get. Super friendly environment with amazing music to match any mood. No matter if you're going on a date or spending time with friends, this place should definitely be added to your rotation.

Great Food Great Service, beautiful place, and price is fair. I'm Vietnamese so I'm not easily impress unless food has a traditional taste, and this place hits the spot. Highly recommended

I've been dying to try Jasmine 26's personal hot pot since I saw Lana's (@minne.eats insta) post about it! When we saw that they were running a BOGO hotpot deal we knew that we had to head over for dinner. We started with the veggie egg rolls and they were perfectly crunchy and delicious. For drinks, I got the paradise cove served in a fun pineapple and liked it, but the best drink at the table we all agreed was the mai tai! I ordered the tom kha broth and it was so great I near finished the entire bowl! I was skeptical at first that they came pre-built, but everything worked great and the option to order extras was nice. Service was great and it was really nice for everyone to have their own little hot pot that could be tailored exactly how they like it. We will definitely be back!

loved the server, he was so nice and friendly. The food was super good and full with flavor PLUS TRY THE LYCHEE SODA IS THE BESTTTT OMGGGG will come again

Best meal I've had in a long time! The spicy Szechuan and Tom Kha broths were incredible and even made vegan which was awesome. Highly recommend getting taro root, udon noodles, tofu skin, and seafood mushrooms. Service was incredibly friendly, can't recommend this place enough! It's a bit spendy, but absolutely go here for a nice meal out!!

I have gone multiple times to Jasmine 26 and knowing I have gone multiple times pretty much sums up how good this place is. I am not the biggest fan of Hotpot to be honest, but after eating at Jasmine 26 my view of Hotpot has changed tremendously. My favorite Hotpot from the menu is the Tom Kha. It is extremely flavorful and it makes me salivate every time. At Jasmine 26 everyone has their own little Hotpot, so you can customize and flavor it to your own liking without worrying about others. In my opinion I prefer this method of Hotpot more than the large shared Hotpot. Even if you do not like Hotpot, Jasmine 26 offers other delicious appetizers/entree options like PadThai, Sriracha Fried Rice, & my favorite the Salt and Pepper Tofu. Their menu is constantly changing, so my friends and I always go back a few times a month to see what is new. Not to mention this place is also vegan friendly. The decorations of the restaurant is simply stunning! I remember going during their soft opening and the restaurant started off quite bare, but now it has beautiful decors everywhere. Lastly, the service is outstanding! The workers are attentive and the food comes out quickly after ordering, so you never have to wait long.

Premium quality food and the nicest staff. Great environment. Definitely coming back!

We tried Jasmine 26 for the first time and we were not disappointed. Our server, Jeremy was so pleasant and helped us with the menu choices. Lee, owner of Jasmine 26 visited us at the table, she was so friendly and kind but her cooking skills are exceptional. we will definitely be going back for more delicious food, we loved everything we ordered and finished our meal with a second crème brûlée.

I am vegetarian and it is super hard to find vegetarian hot pot. This place was amazing! Best tofu I have ever had

Jasmine 26 is back!!!!!! The bar is the neighborhood joint you remember while the new Hot Pot menu is perfect for some special occasions. I'm so glad this place is back, I missed the team behind it!! Try the salt and pepper crab/tofu and the sticky Asian ribs for apps!

Friendly service, clean environment, dELICOUS broth! Tom Kha was my favorite broth. It's tangy, savory and creamy. Most other places are water down broth. My daughter enjoyed her Lâu bo. She said meat were all tender and good.

Such a nice place with great food. And I can only imagine how comforting it will be to come on a cold, winter day and have a hotpot filled with broth and veggies. We will be back!

They have individual hot pot here around $20 to start. The portion they give you with the standard pot is not a lot, so expect to order more sides. The flavors were all really good. I wish they had a sauce bar to make your own, but they do give you a few sauces for the table that are not bad. The service was pretty slow when we went, took quite a while just to get raw veg, but everyone was very nice. I prefer the larger, shared hot pot experience, but if you are looking for individual pots this is a good place to go.

I am obsessed with the spot. It is located on the Eat Street area of Minneapolis and it has some street parking which is free but it usually is busy so just a heads up. The spot is really nice on the inside and features a hot pot station at each of your seats. You get your own pot and you get to control the temperature and make your own food essentially. I loved the Tom Kha hot pot, and the chicken wings and tofu appetizer. They also feature really pretty drinks. I really liked my mail here and I will definitely be back for more.

My children and I love the hot pot, and the service was great, such as the owner kept coming back and checked on us to make sure we got good service. We are definitely coming back.

Two of my friends and I braved the downpour and a river of flooding water to try Jasmine 26 last night. We were greeted with the smiling face of our hostess as soon as we walked dripping through the door and immediately were seated. We started with Proseco and cocktails, and then ordered Asian sticky ribs, spicy green beans, spicy tofu, fried rice, and curry Snapper. Every single item was fantastic. Throughout the meal I think every member of the staff (family?) came by to check on us. We will definitely go back! I have only one small suggestion. I think the lighting should be dimmed WAY DOWN and maybe place a candle or two on each table. It would be a much warmer ambiance and less like eating at the mall.

I was a huge fan of the old Jasmine 26 and was excited to try the hot pot concept. I got the Szechuan one, salt and Pepe's tofu, and green beans. Everything was so amazing, and their sauces from their spice rack are bursting with flavors and amazing. Food and service is so amazing. I can't wait to come back again!

Good hot pot, and friendly service. It felt a little expensive for hot pot compared to other local places, but it was good. The ambiance was nice. We enjoyed it and we felt taken care of by the servers.

We found Jasmine 26 by chance and decided to give it a whirl and it was amazing! I love the personal Hot Pots, they made it super easy for everyone to get what they want but also share. The server Jeremy was absolutely top notch! He was helpful, friendly, and went the extra mile to make our experience even better. By the time we left, we had messaged lots of friends about this place. Food was so good and left us full and toting a bag of leftovers. Not to mention the drinks which were also a hit! Will definitely be back!

Food was fabulous and the wait staff was amazing!!! We will definitely be back! The Salt and Pepper Tofu was the best!!!!

My brother and I were in Uptown and needed some lunch. He recommended this place. Super cool bartender and I ordered an IPA and the sliced beef plate with a side of rice and some bean sprouts. So good. The flavor wasn't too salty and the rice mixed with the cow perfectly. Fantastic lunch to finish up a perfect day with my brother. They had some TVs in there too and it allowed us to watch some Sunday football. Good times.

This was a fun experience for our family! We ordered the wonton appetizer to share and everyone ordered their own hotpot to suit individual tastes. (Kids & spouse don't love spicy, but I do!) Everything, including drinks, was delicious. Our waiter was very patient & kind, answering all of our questions & providing great service. The owner even stopped by our table to check in. Great food, great experience.

I can't say enough wonderful things about Jasmine 26. They are my favorite place to visit. The owner and staff are nothing short of wonderful. Every time we go in we leave with a smile and vow to stop ordering bite squad They are a vegan's dream! The options are absolutely endless for what can be made vegan. Our favorites are the salt and pepper tofu, the vegan egg rolls, the sriracha fried rice, & the eggplant dish. You won't be disappointed with anything you order. Everything is delicious and so fresh. Thanks you Jasmine for having such a wonderful, inclusive & inviting space

Would give a negative star if I could. I wanted this place to be good. Really, I love Eat Street and all the glorious options that hungry diners have to choose from. This place, however, is not one of them. The fact that the place was practically empty - save for the bar - should have been a clue. My husband and I wanted to try something new. We selected Jasmine 26 based on the Yelp reviews. Either something has gone horribly wrong or there's a problem in the universe. Our experience was awful and we won't return; diner be warned! We were greeted by someone (the owner? The manager?) immediately upon entering the restaurant and seated way off the beaten path. It wasn't clear why we were placed so far away. The choice of location only compounded the poor service, I fear. This person visited every other table in the establishment throughout our visit but never returned to our table. A bad sign? Meanwhile our server was enthralled by the customers at the bar, so much so that we were gathering our things to leave when she troubled herself to stop over. Admittedly I was not pleased at this point but really tried to blow it off as a Friday night after a long week. Nonetheless, while enthusiastic, our server was highly inattentive and terribly inefficient. I was tempted to order doubles just to keep the drinks coming at a manageable pace. We ordered the spring roll appetizer. I LOVE spring rolls. I can make a whole meal out of spring rolls. But not these spring rolls. These were definitely 'sprung' and past their prime; gummy, tacky and tasteless, my three least favorite Stooges. I held onto my $6 house pour wine and hoped that things would improve. Alas, hope was not enough. My husband ordered beef pad thai that was lacking in taste, texture and color. The beef was grey. Was it boiled or bad? Who knows? It was unappetizing and unappealing. I ordered the Basil Noodles which came with its own style of fun: Let's play "Where's the Basil?" If I hadn't known what I ordered, I could not have guessed that basil was even listed as an ingredient (let alone the headliner). Greasy, sloppy, basil-less; yuck. Disappointing doesn't begin to cover it. Next time we'll follow the crowds and queue up someplace with better food and service.

The food and service were good. So why am I giving them a one star rating? They changed my $6 tip on a $30 bill to $60. This is the first time anyone has done this in my decades of eating out. I contacted Jasmine multiple times by email and by phone and they did nothing. I will never eat here again, and neither will any of my friends.

Went here for a date night, so so good! The food was delicious, and there's a large variety of a la carte options to add to your hot pot. The drinks were also fantastic, and the ambience was fun and chill. Would definitely go here again and try a different soup base!

I ended up here because I had a craving for pho and all the other places I usually go were closed. It was 10pm and I didn't have very high expectations, but I actually liked this place a lot! I ordered the coconut wontons and the beef pho to share between a friend and I. The wontons came out first and were so delicious - I LOVE coconut so this was a perfect twist on a traditional food for me. Then the big bowl of pho came out. Steaming and accompanied by all the regular side add-ins, I love to put lots of lime, basil and a few jalapeños. It was so tasty, was quick service and hit the spot! I didn't notice that there was outdoor seating until I left the restaurant, so I think I'll try sitting outside next time if it is a nice night!

Terribly disappointed. While nice decor, mediocre service, and the Salt 'n Pepper Shrimp was atrocious. Deep fried in a thick pasty batter that overcooked the shrimp into rubber. I'm reasonably sure the menu description omitted any mention of this being deep fried, because I wouldn't have gotten it if it had. Papaya Salad was ok, but wife's entree was just passable. Sadly, the place was nearly empty at 630 pm on a Sunday night.

This was an absolutely delicious find on Nicolette. Amazing food and such a great waiter/host. Highly recommend!

Absolutely phenomenal night with our young son. Owner and waiter were best in class, the soft shell crab and wing appetizers were incredible! Loved the individual hot pots, 5 different broths and ala carte add ons. Drinks were delicious and the restaurant was well decorated - very enjoyable experience, will be back.

I like coming to Jasmine 26 because of the clearly marked vegan menu options. Generally, I've come here for brunch on Sundays with my sister, then we walk over to Glam Doll Donuts for some vegan donuts, and then cross the street to Lu's Sandwich shop for a vegan bahn mi sandwich (I get the mock duck w/o patte and mayo, bring it home and add my own layer of spicy mayo). It's been pretty dead the couple of Sunday afternoons I've gone with my sister, but that's a-ok with me. I just went again on Sunday evening around 6PM and it was a little busier, but we were seated right away. We've had the owner (I believe) serve us each of those mornings. He's very friendly and helpful with vegan options. Drinks are a good size and decent. He recommended this grapefruit beer (Stiegl Radler) that my sister and I really enjoyed. The restaurant is classy and clean. Huge and lots of space. I like it. They also have a bar, but we haven't sat there. Bathrooms are clean and spacious. As for the food I've had the vegan/vegetarian pho. It was not super flavorful, but not as bad as some others I've had at other places. I would bring my own vegan beef seasoning next time I go lol. I asked them to fry the tofu before they put it in the pho - and it was delicious! The papaya salad vegan style was good the first few times I had it. The last time I had it (10/8/17) it tasted a little different, but still good. I really enjoy it. It inspired me to make my own at home too. Peanuts and cilantro really bring the whole dish together. The vegan Bun Bo Hue was good. It's a spicier broth and had a lot more flavor. I had it with mock duck and it's soo good. I also sub the fat noodles for thin pho noodles, because I'm not a fan of thicker noodles. Vegan Red Curry is also good. I asked them to fry the tofu again before placing in this dish. Makes the difference for me. It's so good. The Sriracha Fried Rice was ok. The fried tofu in it was awesomely cooked. I added some hoisin sauce and chili oil to it and made it much more flavorful. I also added a bunch of cilantro to it when I brought the left overs home. I also enjoyed the Sangria. Comes out beautifully and tastes real good. I have not come here and had to wait for a table, and the service has been great. I think food wise, I'd give it a 3 star, but for the service and atmosphere, I give it four stars. Great place for big groups, birthday parties, work happy hours. Very nice and clean inside, more clean and modern than most Asian places.

Disappointed:( Visited in many people's recommendations for the pho. It was just myself and two other people in the bar, so it was slow & that's super ok- I wanted a quiet place after work for dinner- I ordered a Hendricks martini w/cucumber and it literally took 10min. He had to go find a cucumber in the back, find the knife to slice it, then realized the Hendricks was empty... off to the store room he goes (all the while complaining) That being said it was a good tasting martini albeit short on the rim by 1/2-¾ inch - a big boo boo in my book for a $10 martini in a 3oz glass... I ordered the Pho Beef and it was seriously short in the bowl and only mildly warm on arrival. I tasted the broth before adding in any extras and it tasted ok, but the cool temperature bothered me, so I let the bartender know. His reply was that the bean sprouts cool it down & I corrected his comment explaining it came that way before any add ins. -The pic is right after taking 2sips of broth and adding in the sprouts & jalepenos- a pretty sad portion :( He took it back and it was microwaved so now all of my rare beef is well and my well done beef is shoe leather. During my meal- he tells the other two customers that he is extremely sick and sweating all over with the chills... after he has his hands all over everything I've eaten and not visibly washing them once - gross. I've waited tables forever, and CHECK PLEASE!
