We hosted our Christmas party here this year. There were 13 of us in the group and we did an amazing cocktail making masterclass before enjoying a fantastic dinner. We were so well looked after and the experience was top class from the food quality to the service!

Having been to Blue jasmine about 5 times the food was always delicious that’s when it was under the old management. The tapas menu under new management is no where close to the original standard. I understand the new vibe they are trying to go for but the quality of food was quite sub standard and overall felt quite cheap. Wouldn’t go back

We went back here after a brief closure and new management. Seeing the changed name and range of menu, I was pretty certain they’ve given up fine dining and went cheap, in order to survive in this local market environment for mass than high end. However, we were pleasantly surprised by the fact that cooking quality is maintained from the fine dining past. Inevitably there are no longer expensive materials like bluefin tuna nor caviar, but the quality of cooking stayed as good as before. I think the same chef remained despite the change of management. The selection of drinks got smaller too but there are many unusual good drinks at accessible price. In summary, quality of food and drinks stays very good while portions got a little smaller with a big drop in price, which allows we can have many more different tastes with a lot smaller bill. We will definitely come back many times again, even more often than before.

We were excited to try the new concept after enjoying some very nice meals at Blue Jasmine. Sadly we were very disappointed. We had a friendly welcome, service was good. We wanted to order a bottle of wine which wasn't available, we were offered a taste of another but it wasn't for us. It's disappointing when there isn't a huge wine list to find one that's not available. We had a glass of wine and a beer instead. The main problem for us was the food, the menu for tapas isn't very big, portions are tiny, prices are high and the food wasn't hot enough. None of the dishes had anything special about them and we have had better when we've had a takeaway from somewhere else. For the surroundings and the price it just doesn't live up to it. We won't be back unless these issues are resolved.

We go frequently to blue jasmine to celebrate special occasions and enjoy an amazing dinner to this beautiful venue. After a very warm welcoming from the hostess, we were informed that the whole theme of the restaurant has been changed from fine dining to tapas. This didn’t stop us because we were used to the fantastic dishes of the amazing chefs in the kitchen. After we sat and we were asking about the new menu we were told that the whole kitchen team and all the management has been changed with the new ownership. So we started with 2 cocktails the classic jasmine blues which was delicious a bit different from the old one but still good, my wife ordered the cloverlilly which she wasn’t very happy about it but drunk it anyway. Now the food was a bit of a let down. We ordered a variety of dishes to check the new flavours but for us didn’t work. Prawns with wasabi cooked good but the wasabi wasn’t for me as good , wife liked it, now chicken honey lemon was average , Thai chicken average fried chicken with store bought sweet chilly sauce … calamari very plain but very well cooked, the duck was very dry but the skin was crispy the rice was very good and suprisingly the BEST dumplings we ever had. As I said it’s not bad , but very average food given the prices that you pay. Before the food was amazing but with the new theme it’s not special anymore and it’s just seems like an average place. Pity cause we used to love this restaurant cause it was special.

Had a very enjoyable evening, arrived early as we decided to sample some of the cocktails and the reception team were excellent and couldn't have done more to help. Went into the restaurant, initial service very good and honest assessments when asking on whether we should have starters with duck or extra rice etc. Duck appertiser was excellent, mains also good. Disappointments were they let our wine run out without topping up, not a big deal if the wine is within nearby but it's not!Finally caught the eye of the sommelier to have the top up. Then coming to have the bill paid took far too long and when I commented on the issue with the delay it wasn't acknowledged. I would say the issue is I think we had 3 servers, bring it to one and then you won't feel like they forgot you. But we will be back so all in an excellent just a shame at the end.

Me, my parents and my partner decided to treat ourselves to a meal here and I am SO glad we did. Not being a particularly adventurous eater, I wasn’t entirely sure how the food would go down but it was honestly incredible. We all had a variety of dishes varying from the seafood to pork. All of which was delicious, I can’t stop raving about it. The staff are amazing, our server gave us a few recommendations which we followed and it absolutely paid off! Can’t wait to come back and show the great food to our friends!

The moment you arrive at the reception desk you know you are somewhere special. The staff are very welcoming and attentive. The menu reads well but is even better to taste. Fabulous flavours. Well worth a visit

Been to blue a few times so came back after a while of not going and was a bit disappointed food and drinks was lovely but the service wasn’t the best. We had to wait 30 minutes or even a bit longer just to get a drink menu after finishing our food and didn’t even get offered a desserts menu and there wasn’t much interaction with the waiters

This was such a special evening, the food was so delicious, we had 3 courses and all tried a bit of each other’s food. Every morsel of food just melted in your mouth. Our server Filipa was so knowledgeable about the whole menu. The cocktails were so decadent, you really were made to feel so special. We were celebrating my friends great news about a health issue, so we celebrated with a bottle of Cristal. Only issue was paying the bill, my friend had her cards stolen and wanted to pay cash, the manager was very rude, he did not handle the situation very well. When your bill is more than £600 for 3 you would expect him to be a bit more discreet, instead he stood above her and made her feel so uncomfortable as he was making a scene. We have frequented the restaurant since they opened, sadly we haven’t been back because of the humiliation brought about by the manager.

The vegan starter was either a bowl of peanuts or a tiny cup of lotus root. I ordered both, neither of which were nice. My main was ok, albeit quite basic (soy mushroom and aubergine). The dessert was sorbet. In this day and age they really need more vegan options and some tofu dishes on the menu. It was also really cold in the restaurant.

Without doubt the best restaurant in the south. The staff food and decor are first class. Attention to detail truly wonderful service and amazing food. They had added new dishes to the menu to go along side the firm favourites. Delicious. Their NewYear menu ends after the 24/2 so hurry as you won’t want to miss the fantastic dessert. Such an amazing treat to top off a tasty main and starter.

Really disappointed. Paid 216 pounds for 2 people. Service charge automatically added on. We ordered 2 Chinese new year set menus - really disappointed. Pork ribs flavourless. As a main dish 2 tiny pork ribs per person. Three starters. Again flavourless. Dumplings plain. None of it tasted like it was freshly prepared. Very disappointed to pay 216 and leave the meal hungry. Was not expecting to have to share every plate when ordering our own set menu each. Was unfortunately one of the worst dining experience of our lives. Over priced and without flavour. On a positive note the service was good and pudding was acceptable. Good ambiance. But would really advise others to avoid this place.

We were really disappointed with our dinner. The restaurant was so cold we had to keep our coats on and the food was very mediocre. It came out separately with my husband’s arriving first, another table being served and then mine coming a bit later with our extras even later. It wasn’t hot and no one asked us how it was. I was expecting amazing food and service given the pricing but it was quite the opposite. On the plus side, the drinks were amazing. A shame the food wasn’t and the place was freezing!

I’ve eaten here on a number of occasions and it is by far the best restaurant that I’ve eaten at in Southampton. The location is beautiful, service is great and the food is delicious. Yes it’s expensive and based on my experience it is worth every penny.

Really disappointed with the quality of the food. This restaurant pretends to be some sort of Michelin star oriental restaurant (it’s not) and its menu is Michelin star prices… but we’ve had better oriental food from our local Chinese takeaway and Wagamama! £22 for a tiny pot of vegetables and £18 for a bland bowl of rice noodles? Come on. We’ve been to restaurants that charge those sorts of prices and the food has been exquisite and we’ve been happy to pay that. But at this restaurant, we felt robbed. Only good thing was the service.

Whilst staying at the Harbour Hotel, we took the opportunity to eat at Blue Jasmine, it was a Friday night, not so busy being the end of February but, the place looks amazing and upscale with the blue lights. Starter was really nice, but unfortunately my main arrived but without rice, I waited and still didn't arrive, my wife started her main and I waited. The manager realised what happened and came over and removed my main dish and also my wife's and took it back to the kitchen and they completely did both dishes fresh again, there was no hesitation about this. It was so professional and clear, this was a quality restaurant and did not suffer sub standard service or food. The food was excellent and we can't wait to book another weekend at Ocean Village and to visit Blue Jasmin again, it was really was fantastic.

Not sure where to start here given everything was perfect: - fantastic service: our waiter knew the menu really well and was able to advise perfectly on what dishes suited someone with a particular food intolerance - every single dish was very tasty and cooked to perfection - the venue and area are stunning, just by the marina overlooking the waterfront - prices were actually just right given the high-end standard of the restaurant

My daughter and I visited this restaurant without a reservation. The service and attention to detail was excellent. My daughter has several allergies and our waiter ( I didn’t get his name but he was Greek), went above and beyond to make our dining experience memorable, which he did. The menu was explained in detail, the chef consulted more than once on my daughter’s choices, nothing was too much trouble. Do not miss out on the wonderful food available to you if you are in Southampton. Highly recommended.

The food in this place is below average. The noodle soup tasted like dishwater, no flavour whatsoever the rice no flavour, complete, bland food, we have been to nearly more than 120 restaurants in Southampton and in London, and it is quite frankly an insult to charge for the food that they are giving in this place absolutely no flavour. The Vietnamese rolls were filled with soggy noodles and lettuce, no other ingredients that are usually in them. I don’t understand how this restaurant is open and to top it all off. It’s freezing need to invest in some heating for the customers.
