I liked this soup even though it was a bit on the salty side. They definitely don’t skimp of the won tons! Mmm.

Red bell pepper, zucchini, mushroom, garlic and basil. $9.50

This was a pretty standard dish and not very exciting. They do give you a lot of chicken though which is great, but the sauce was a bit bland and boring.
Marinated flounder fillet fried to golden brown topped with pine nuts and light sweet and spicy sauce. $11.95
Jasmine Tea House, San Francisco CA
Ugh, this was not the best item to order for delivery. By the time it made it to my place, the battered exterior was soft and soggy from the sauce and being steamed from the closed container. The sauce itself was very good either. I definitely wouldn’t order this again (even for dine in).
Tofu, egg drop, black fungus. Cup $4.40
Jasmine Tea House, San Francisco CA
I love hot and sour soup because it’s a little bit spicy and filling. I can’t remember if this one had chicken in it, but there was plenty of tofu to take its place.

I’m a sucker for salty, deep fried, saucy Chinese food so this dish was right up my alley! They pack a lot of food into those delivery containers so I can’t complain. The beef is probably not the best quality, but I really like the flavor of the dish and they can make it on the spicier side too.

Marinated tender spareribs BBQ with chef’s special light honey sauce. $11.95
Jasmine Tea House, San Francisco CA
Meh, I wasn’t a fan of these spareribs. The chef’s special sauce wasn’t very tasty and you couldn’t taste much honey. You would think that a honey sauce would have some sweetness and thickness to it, but this was somewhat bland and runny. The meat was also on the tough and dry side. I wouldn’t order this again.
Holiday topiaries, Embarcadero Center.
This dish was really good. There was a lot of tender slices of beef in there and they also packed in a lot of onions, scallions, garlic, and chilies. Definitely worth a re-order. $8.75

Hmm, this was greasier than I like it and also really salty from the soy sauce. I was expecting something flash sauteed in a wok and with lots of garlic or something. I didn’t know they were gonna drench it in soy sauce so I probably won’t order this again. $7.95

Shrimp, beef, scallop, squid, chicken, jalapeno, vegetable, garlic. $12.95
Jasmine Tea House, San Francisco CA
Mmm, for a delivery clay pot dish, this rocked! The ingredients were of surprisingly good quality and they tasted great! There were so many proteins packed in there. Most Chinese places fill the dish with bok choy and only give you a few slices of meat. I was even surprised that the squid and scallops were tender and fresh tasting. Now that’s impressive for Chinese delivery! I would definitely order this dish again.

Many of you know that I’m a huge fan of General Tso’s chicken even though it’s not even a real Chinese dish, hehe. Jasmine Tea House’s version is super tasty and they use large chunks of white meat chicken. They’re also only lightly battered and cooked perfectly so you’re not eating balls of grease, ew! This was a definite delivery win! $8.75

Price has gone up! And it looks like they might have changed the recipe, but it’s still delicious. 🙂

They put more broccoli in the dish now which I kind of like.
