The dishes consist of both meat and vegetables, but the common denominators to all the offerings are the savory spices that infuse each entree. The chefs aren't heavy handed with their spices, but neither are they afraid of them! A nice wine list features a variety of Hungarian and Australian wines. The interior decor is just about as eclectic as the menu—Middle Eastern fabrics, a tropical fish tank, and contemporary lighting all mix together to provide the distinct feel that is Jasmine. |
