Review Jasmine's Cafe & Thai Restaurant - Taumarunui

I was not expecting to find Thai food in this town, let alone excellent Thai food. This place serves the real deal, though you may have to ask for some extra chili 🌶️ as I don't think the locals are used to it. Fabulous and friendly service in a comfortable atmosphere

We are glad we stopped at this place for lunch on our way to Auckland from Mt Ruapehu to Auckland. They serve fast (f/rice 4min), and the food is delicious. We ordered fried rice and two entrees ( chicken with cashew nuts and a beef dish) along with jasmine rice. The staff and owner (a Lady) are very friendly and helpful.

Pretty good Thai for a place that does lots of other things too

Stopped for a quick lunch and was surprised how delicious the food was. Could say its better than most expensive thai restaurants out here. The place was full and busy but had our food ready in less than 5mins. Portions were generous that all of us had trouble finishing our orders. My mates enjoyed their food as well. Definitely value for money.

The Tom Kha Ghi (coconut chicken soup) was very very nice. The yellow curry was different than other places very thick. The eat in option are a little on the small side. The chicken cashew was very good. Don't get the $8 milk shake though, it's just flavored whipped milk and a small one at that. $4 for small servings of rice isn't too good of a look. Very very fast service though.

Fast service. Cashew stir fry was amazing we went back for seconds. Green curry was also good. Pad Thai was average but overall good food.

This place was so lovely. I ordered a medium yellow curry and it was really yum and full of flavour. Then i got banana balls and ice cream for dessert, which is really filling so my partner and I shared one plate :)

This is such a lovely spot to have lunch! It is a hidden gem in Taumarunui, we ate here after a long day of work and had the most delicious lunch. The service was excellent will definitely be coming back.

Very nicely made peanut saute chicken. Chicken was moist and not over cooked and saute sauce chunky and full of flavour.

Came here for lunch and had Pad Thai and the Chicken & Cashew Nut Curry. Perfect portion size for lunch and very reasonable prices—pretty much everything on the menu is $10.50 or $12.50! Would highly recommend the food too!! Extremely tasty, fresh and feels authentic :)

Good variety of kiwi and Thai menu. Appreciated the friendly service, staff are always with a smile. Accepts cash and card. We enjoyed the Tom yum soup and phad Thai noodles.

So so good !!! Highly recommend !!!

Lovely Thai basil fried beef dish. Nice to find this here on my transit. Will definitely be back.

Stopped in for a quick lunch. Toasted sandwiches, burgers, pancakes, tea and coffee. Very delicious and quick friendly service. Will definitely stop in again
