We dined at Jasmine's on 1-12-2009 at 21:45. We know we were late, seated at 9:45pm (we are late diners and restaurant owners) asked if you were still serving. Told yes, not a problem by the hostess. We sat and was immediately greeted by our server David. He informed us that we had to order quickly since the kitchen closes at 10pm. We placed our cocktail order and said we needed more time to look at the menu. An additional table of 4 and 6 were seated after us! Before our drinks came out, he came back and said that the kitchen closes at 10 and needed to order. We ordered appt. Eggroll and when we get our drinks, we'll order dinner. We quickly decided and orders the Walnut Pawns, Soya Chilean Seabass and Veg. Rice (see PS). Our apts came out and then dinner. He proceeded to tell us that the kitchen closes at 10pm? Guess we needed to eat by 10pm also?????? He went to the next table and told the couple that they needed to order their dessert, since the Pastry Chef was leaving. Hearing this, we really felt, that we should have never been seated. He went to them 3 times, while we were eating. We sat at table 56. He came over to us and asked us, we were done, if we wanted anything else. Typically we are not dessert eaters, but hearing this we were SO TURNED OFF. Had we only know that we would be rushed, would have done a cheap buffet.
Feeling so rushed and the fact that the server would come up multiply times to tell us the kitchen was closing was in POOR TASTE. We left a POOR TIP of 13% which was GIFT. I did write on the bottom of the credit card receipt, I clearly wrote my unhappiness with the poor judgement. David , probably thought I was a CHEAP TIPPER. I should have said something to the manager, but did not, since we elected not to visit the casino for the rest of the trip. Thought you should know.
PS....Now I am being cheap!
$18.88 for Veg Rice is crazy (cold rice and some veggies) far from exceptional like we've experienced in the past from your restaurants.
