where to start! my entire jasmine experience was very unpleasant. we chose this restaurant as were looking for cantonese food and this popped up on many of our search results. so we went ahead and made a reservation. even though we had a reservation, when we actually showed up, we were made to wait for a good few minutes before we got to our table. one look at the menu and we realized this place is way expensive than the other restaurants in the resort with much lesser variety. we went ahead and placed an order for dim sum basket and wok fried udon noodles. the basket cost us $28 but came with only 3 dumplings of 3 kinds - like how does one have 3 dumplings between 2 people. lol! we anyway had half of each dumpling and moved on with our shock. a dim sum platter from lemongrass which is around the same price comes with a handsome 15-16 dim sums and tasted much better. anyway, the udon noodles was quite good and the quantity was good too. in between, a lady with a camera came over and offered to click us a picture. thinking this probably s complimentary for all guests, we agreed, little did we know what we were getting into. so she makes us do a couple of standard poses and then we realize that this probably is not complimentary. so we let our hostess know that we are not interested in the pictures but her response is that we have to let her know ourselves - weird!! you have allowed her to entertain your guests and you cannot even inform her. we did not see her for the rest of our dinner, so we assumed she had been informed. we then tried to put the bill on our room number at the mgm and they were unable to do so. they did not even try to resolve the issue and we had to pay at the restaurant thereby losing all those precious points. we left the restaurant quite annoyed at the lack of good customer service and started playing the slots nearby and this lady who took our photograph finds us in all this crowd to show us our pictures, we found this very creepy and strange that the staff did not inform her even after we left. and how the heck did she find us!
anyway, all in all, never going back to this place again - neither for the food nor for the experience.
