THANK YOU!! If you are in search of great Thai food look no further. I had the pleasure of ordering a catering order with Jasmine Rice; it was plentiful, tasty and the customer service was amazing!! read more

This was a cute place to have Thai cuisine in the Rittenhouse area. We came to try the crispy duck fried rice and that did not disappoint! The duck was not gamey at all and was cooked to perfection. The rice was flavorful but not overly seasoned with soy sauce etc. Then, we also had the papaya salad and dumplings. Nothing we had was short of amazing. The server, who I can only assume also owns the restaurant was very friendly and kind. I would love to come back here again. read more

A small and cozy Thai place near Rittenhouse with a casual ambiance. This restaurant is BYOB. I had the pad see ew and enjoyed it. The dish turned out as expected. Others at the table seemed to like their food as well. Service was attentive and our food was prepared in a timely fashion. read more

Jasmine Rice - Rittenhouse - Pad see ew - Thai Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

I ordered som tum(papaya salad) and Thai green curry chicken with medium spice. Both were delicious. The service was friendly and efficient. The restaurant is small, but nicely decorated. There was only one other table occupied when I was there, so it was very quiet. I can imagine it getting very noisy when crowded. Will definitely return. read more

The food was great! The crispy duck was actually crispy, and tasted amazing! The service was really good, and our server seemed to know regulars who walked in by name. read more

If it was possible to leave zero stars I would. The flavors are masked with either sugar or some sort of syrup. The best thing I had there was the chicken satay and even that wasn't the greatest to consume. This is one and done for me, definitely not worth the time or money!! read more

I ate every bite! The food was delicious but the servings weren't very large. Which, in a way, I guess allows you to try more things! Service was quick and the restaurant was quaint and unassuming. It's on a nice quiet little block and easy to get to after you find parking. read more

Jasmine Rice - Rittenhouse - Thai Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

We walked into a completely empty restaurant and the waitress looked confused that we were even there. She didn't seem to know they were open, even though someone had already placed a to-go order. The vibes were off from the start -- we even had to ask where to sit. Another customer came in for a phone order that apparently was never made. We ended up leaving before ordering because the service felt unwelcoming. Never again. read more

Went here for the first time during Center City Restaurant Week and had a good experience. Everyone that dined there for the day had to do the Multi-Course special (they did four instead of three). For my dining experience, I got the Green Curry Mussels, Chicken Lettuce Wraps and a curry salmon dish. Everything was served in good timing, tasty, fresh and served in good portion sizes. I would be interested in going back to try some other dishes. read more

First of all the service was excellent. The owner was right there to greet us. The atmosphere was quiet and comfortable. The Thai flavors were perfectly executed. I cook Thai food myself at home and I loved this food. Don't hesitate to go to this little place. You'll go back again, I promise. read more

Came here during restaurant week: for $40 you could've gotten a starter, a soup or salad, a main dish and a dessert or beverage other than water. I had the salt and pepper shrimp rolls as my starter, spicy shrimp salad, bourbon beef as my main dish and decided to opt out of the dessert and had a sprite instead. The shrimp rolls were good on its own, but better once it was dipped in the sauce they came with. The curry sauce with the bourbon beef was absolutely delicious and probably my favorite part of the meal. The place is small and cozy & the tables are pretty close to each other, but luckily the place wasn't completely full. The staff is attentive but they only have one person that checks people in and takes the orders. Everyone else either bring out the dishes or clean up the tables once people are done. I will say, this is usually out of my comfort zone, which is why I like restaurant week because it pushes me to try new places. read more

Delicious Thai food. However don't order delivery. I ordered pad Thai, papaya salad, and coconut soup. Massaman Curry, Spring Rolls and Tom Yum were delivered. Probably more Grub Hub's issue but the bag was also labeled dine in so there was some mix up on their end. They've always been spot on when I pick up. read more

This was a visit out of our norm and we're glad we did it! It inspired me to try everything I normally wouldn't get just looking at what was available for restaurant week. I had the crispy spring rolls, lemongrass soup, and drunken duck. Spring rolls were good, just needed more of the sauce on the side. My girlfriend had the shrimp rolls, and together they're pretty good with the sauce. I'd opt for the shrimp instead on next visit. Lemongrass soup was a seafood like soup, muscles. Shrimp, mushrooms, and a ton of flavor, this would be a repeat item. The drunken duck was good, it was poultry so it kind of tasted like chicken but at the same time doesn't hold the same flavors as chicken. The skin was crisp just right but not too the point it would cause the inside to be overly chewy. I would opt for the beef and potatoes with peanuts next time however. The customer service was awesome, great thing restaurant week is, to get us out exploring new places. read more

Dined here for lunch with coworkers during restaurant week and we all could not stop saying how incredible our food was. 10/10! Service was amazing. The husband and wife are the absolute sweetest, appreciative and very attentive. I ordered the papaya salad, shrimp green curry and tropical pearls. EVERYTHING was delicious! The papaya salad was refreshing, crunchy and tasty. The shrimp green curry was everything + more. Perfect balance of sweet and spicy. The tropical pearls were delicious and made me want to drink the milk up. My other coworker tried the crispy spring rolls, beef pad see ew and homemade coconut custard. She also gave everything a 10/10 with zero complaints. We all plan on returning here for dinner! read more

I would give it a lower rating if I could. I went with a friend for restaurant week 2 years ago and it was the worst service and food I've had in a while. The food is super bland and feels like the person making it is severely overworked. It took almost 3 hours to get all three of our restaurant week courses, which we only ate about half of. Please save your time and money. read more

Restaurant week $20 lunch brought us to this jewelbox on 16th St. For starters tried the papaya salad (nice dressing) and spring rolls (crispy and hot), followed by the beef dish (starch heavy with potatoes AND rice) and the shrimp pad thai (light on the shrimp). Dessert was a bit of a bummer -- coconut custard OR iced tea. WIth only one wait staff it is a bit slow on food delivery. Tables are well spaced and there was a friendly vibe. read more

I ordered the pad see ew for takeout, it was very delicious and flavorful. The noodles were perfect!

Average Thai eatery. Used to be top notch but it's fallen off in recent years. Head a few blocks to Walnut and go to Dara or Grandma's instead for far better food -- and overall experience. Jasmine Rice feels trapped in the past, unfortunately. Decor needs to be updated. The menu is not inventive. The owner IS super nice though. I hope he can turn things around. read more

Jasmine Rice is consistently the best Thai food in the area. It has the best Lemongrass Soup I've ever eaten, and their Green Curry is equally delicious. Prices are very reasonable, and service is great and quick. A must try! read more

Tip is that their lunch prices are $1-3 lower than dinner prices! This is a cute place run by a married couple, the husband served us and was very nice. They are doing limited indoor seating now. We ordered: Papaya Salad (5/5): very heavy on the peanuts and not very spicy, but delicious!! I love sour food so I always get papaya salad at thai restaurants. Pad Kee Mao (3/5): This was weirdly sweet and fishy, despite the meat being beef. Not really a huge fan of the flavor. Red Curry (4.5/5): I got this with the tofu and vegetables, and it was so flavorful! There were carrots, green beans, mushrooms, tofu, and onions. I wish it was served with some more rice! read more

During the covid 19 lock-down, I needed to try a new restaurant for takeout that I haven't yet tried. Jasmine rice was offering a $10 off grub hub special, so that was an easy choice. My husband and I both LOOOOVED our delivery from jasmine rice. I had the Massaman curry dinner which was a thick coconut curry sauce, chicken, peanuts, carrots, onions. Holy hell it was delicious. My husband got the "King and I" dinner which was also delicious with the green beans and shrimp, but his sauce was thinner and he had order envy after tasting my Massaman dish :) we also ordered the lettuce wraps appetizer which was probably the best lettuce wraps I've ever had. The sauce on the chicken was so delicious, and the chicken itself was so tender and soft, I swore it could be tofu instead Lol! Overall amazing dinner for a carryout experience. I wish I could be dining inside, but hey, Jasmine Rice did an excellent job with delivery on Grub hub, and we couldn't be happier. Thank you for filling our bellies and tastebuds during this difficult time. And thanks to the Grubhub deliverer for braving the elements to deliver my food! 5 stars from me, and my husband! read more

Jasmine Rice - Rittenhouse - Massaman curry dinner.. sooo delicious - Thai Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

I heard really great things about Jasmine Rice and unfortunately I have to disagree with those great reviews. I think the food would have been good if I could taste it. The spice scale at this restaurant is very skewed. I worked at a Thai restaurant for 4 years and I've grown to learn where my spice tolerance is when dealing with Thai cuisine. I can tolerate a higher level of spice, but not Thai hot. I ordered a 3/5 spice level, thinking it would be medium. It was definitely not medium. It tasted like Thai hot. My friend ordered a dish with 1/5 spice and it was too spicy for her. It was impossible to eat the food because of how spicy they made it! They also messed up on my husband's dish, but they were willing to replace it. read more

My friend and I stumbled across this gem of a restaurant and we were so happy we did! It's a little small inside, but it felt cozy not cramped. There was pretty classical music in the background which added to the calming atmosphere and my friend and I were able to converse at normal volume. The owner and waitstaff were so kind! They were very friendly and attentive, and but they gave us space and didn't rush us. The food and drinks were excellent! I had a yummy Thai iced tea which was served in a beautiful tall glass. As an appetizer I had the oriental lettuce wrap and my friend got the garlic ginger dumplings. She loved the dumplings and the dipping sauce it came with. The lettuce wraps were amazing! The meat mixture was super flavorful and had a hint of sweetness. It also came with a sauce that was a little spicy so pairing it together made for a sweet/spicy flavor. For the main course, my friend had the green curry with chicken and she loved it! I had the drunken duck, which was also so so good! The duck was tender but crispy on the outside. The vegetables were fresh and crunchy. And the coconut curry sauce was perfect. I could have eaten the whole thing but I wanted to save the leftovers I had so I could taste it again for lunch! All in all, we had a wonderful experience here and I would highly recommend eating at this restaurant! read more

Jasmine Rice - Rittenhouse - Drunken Duck - Dinner - Thai Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

3.5 I came to Jasmine Rice and tried Thai food for the first time and I must say that it was pretty decent, not good, not bad but decent. It was restaurant week and I ordered the Thai papaya salad. It was very refreshing for a hot day. It had shredded green papayas, peanuts, carrots, tomatoes all in a lime dressing. It was delicious. It tasted like cole slaw but Thai style. I also ordered the Thai fried rice with shrimp My food was not bad, the shrimp could've used a little more seasoning but it did tasted like it was steamed which added to the freshness of the dish. The dish overall would've been better if it was topped with a sauce. Overall service was fast and efficient. Our waiter came to our table consistently asking if we needed anything. The restaurant is small and seems to be family owned. I would definitely visit again to try more items on the menu. read more

Tried to come here on a Sunday night but the one waitress working the place wasn't able to seat any more people. Forward to Monday late morning, and was able to get a table for two without any wait. Wanted to get the Salmon Dinner, unfortunately the waitress mentioned they hadn't been able to get the fish because the market was closed. Determined, opted instead for the Massaman Curry ($15) - a large bowl of coconut curry with peanuts potatoes, carrots, and chicken. Food comes out after 15 minutes, a moderate sized bowl with all the aforementioned ingredients. After a few bites, realized that they hadn't put any potatoes in the dish. Waitress comes around and she says that they were out of potatoes so they replaced them with carrots. Not great service, because I wouldn't have ordered the dish in that case. We also had ordered Black Tea, but was given Green Tea instead because they were out of the black (she did end up taking this off the bill). Food here was okay, service not so much. Maybe it's better on normal weekdays. read more

Jasmine Rice - Rittenhouse - Massaman Curry - Thai Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Highlights: Chicken satay: Tasty Spring rolls: just okay Thai basil, fried rice with salmon: mushy over cooked rice with over cooked very small portion of salmon Pad See Ew with chicken: decent but chicken was overcooked and dry BYOB spot I met up with some friends in Philly this weekend. One of my friends lives in Philly so she suggested that we meet at this restaurant. She recommended the chicken satay so we got that and spring rolls to share. The chicken satay was very juicy and tasty and the spring rolls were just okay. Onto the entrées - - I ordered the Thai basil, fried rice with salmon and my two friends ordered Thai Basil fried rice with duck and Pad See Ew with Chicken. I gave my friend some of my rice dish to try before I ate it, and I wish I had tried it first because it was horribly mushy and overcooked. I waited for the waitress to come and check up on us, but she didn't. I had to flag someone down to discuss what could be possibly done. I had to talk to you three different people and the last person was a manager but she did not want to remove the dish from the receipt. She did offer to remake the dish but at that point I was not interested and I wanted a different dish. She said that's not possible so I asked for the check. Pretty much a waste of money for me. I tried some of my friend's Pad See Ew and the taste was just OK but the chicken was very dry and overcooked. It's very unlikely that I would return here but if I did, I would stick to the appetizers. read more

I went to Jasmine Rice on Wednesday for restaurant week. The restaurant was packed but we were seated right away. There was only one server working that night so it took a bit to get our food HOWEVER that did not detract from our experience. The staff offered us a complimentary dish to apologize for the wait which was really nice. I will definitely be back when restaurant week is over! read more

Dined here during Restaurant Week 2023 for lunch and really enjoyed the meal. I was able to try the crispy veggie spring rolls, seared salmon, beef pad see ew, coconut custard and tropical pearls dessert. The spring rolls could've been better but the meal definitely ramped up in flavor from there. The pad see ew and salmon were solid and the desserts both knocked it out of the park. I would go back just for those 2 desserts. The custard had 3 different layers of coconut, tapioca and rice pudding. The pearls in the other desert were made out of pumpkin and taro rice flour. Soooo good. read more

My friend and I walked in here a few weeks ago after striking out a few other places in Rittenhouse. Despite it being a Friday night, we were easily able to get a table! The staff was super kind and able to accommodate my friend's gluten allergy- they said almost everything on the menu is gf. The food was delicious! We ordered the pad Thai and red curry, both with chicken, to share. We also got mango sticky rice for dessert. I definitely will be retuning because I love Thai food and have yet to find a favorite spot in Philly. read more

My partner and I grabbed lunch at Jasmine Rice for the first time during Restaurant Week. The place is a few blocks away from Rittenhouse Park, away from the main hullabaloo. It's not a big restaurant, so making a reservation won't hurt if you plan to go during typical peak dining hours. We enjoyed the papaya salad appetizer, which was a bright and refreshing start to the meal. For entrees, I got the shrimp pad kee mao (decent; spice level is very mild). The stars of the show for my tastebuds were the papaya salad and the dessert, the homemade coconut custard. It's warm and not too sweet - an instant fave and the perfect conclusion to lunch. My partner also enjoyed the thai tea and downed it pretty much instantly. Overall we had a lovely time here and look forward to coming back! I recommend stopping by Jasmine Rice for its cozy ambiance, friendly service, and delicious food. read more

This place was just Jazzy! This spot is great for byo and large groups! Came here with 7 people and the server was very accommodating to all o us splitting/sharing/changing, which was super appreciated! He was also so kind and made sure everything went smoothly. As for the food, it was definitely a yes from me! The basil fried was just ok (not a standout but still good) and the veggie pad Thai was on par with some of the best I've had! Will definitely be recommending this place for byos in the future! read more

I've walked past this place for 4 years and have never stopped in - a pandemic seems like an apt time to test it out. My phone was broken so I was actually window shopping places that door online ordering because I was hangry so as soon as I saw they did that, I went back to my apartment to order. Major plus. The food was prepared on time and was piping hot still after I was 15 minutes late (and a 15 min walk to my apartment). The serving sizes are HUGE. If you can eat a full container in one sitting, you must be a horse because no human possibly can; the (convex) lids barely shut. The order of fried rice and pad thai fed me for 4 meals. The food itself was average. Like I previously stated, I was hangry so anything would have sufficed honestly. I wish the pad thai had more vegetables and bits of tofu like I'm used to. I would be inclined to try less basic dishes if I'm in the area again, but I wanted to play it safe for my first time around. read more

Got the pad Thai to go and really enjoyed it! Perfect amount of sauce and the chicken was cooked well.

This place is quite simply not up to par. I got the mussels in green curry. The mussels were very low quality and the curry was watery. Rice is $3 extra? Way better thai places in Philly, which is probably why the restaurant was mostly empty on a Saturday night. read more

Ordered on their website, which happily took my money, but then went there and the place was closed. Yet to see if they give me a refund yet. Update: While waiting out front, we got a call (at this point over 30 minutes since making the order) saying that despite the store being locked, someone was actually in there whipping up the order, and said to come back in 15 mins. We did that and got the food. The food was great, so upgrading to 3 stars from 1. read more

We came for restaurant week so we were able to try multiple items across the menu! We ordered the drunken duck (yellow curry) and the bourbon beef (massaman curry): the curries were flavorful and the meats were tender! We also ordered the papaya salad, pepper shrimp rolls, and the seafood lemongrass soup! The green curry mussels were amazing, we couldn't get enough of the sauce. We also tried the coconut custard and tropical pearls for dessert. We enjoyed everything we ate and we will definitely reorder the curries, the mussels and the custard! The owner seemed to know most customers in there and the host was very attentive. Seems like a good place to become a regular !! read more
