When it comes to getting a waterfront view in the desert, Jasmine's is about as close as you get (overlooking the Bellagio Fountains). The only other dining views I have enjoyed more were from Anthony's Pier 4 in Boston and the 360 at the CN Tower in Toronto.
I eat here about once a year and each time I get the Taste of Jasmine full course meal. I have always thoroughly enjoyed the experience in terms of atmosphere, view and service.
The food is also very good with a great attention to detail and featuring quality ingredients.
I personally feel the portions are ideal and always leave very satiated.
My typical bill is in the 280 range (before tip) for 2 people including some very good wine which is really not bad given the total experience.
Whenever someone asks me for a great place to take a date for dinner, Jasmine is at the top of my list.
