    Jens’ is reliably outstanding. The ambiance is so cozy and inviting and the service we’ve received there has been superb. It’s our go to for celebrating our anniversary and we’re never sorry for the choice! This time we had an onion tart appetizer (a slice served with a delicious spinach side salad) and considered just ordering the rest of the tart and calling it a night. Delicious. For entrees we had the Alaskan king salmon and the filet mignon. Both melted in our mouths and were perfectly paired with delicious sides. Excellent reasonably priced wine list and beautiful local art round out the experience. We left happy and smiling!

    I’ve heard good things about the restaurant and have wanted to try. It was our 30th anniversary and a wonderful place to celebrate us. Food was delicious and very reasonably priced. Only issue the room could use more sound dampening. Just a little too noisy.

    Really enjoyed our dinner. Neither of my guests had been to Jen’s before and they said they will definitely go back again. Their salads are out of this world delicious. I had a pasta dish and it was the best I’ve ever had and I dine out all over the US because of work travel.

    This was the first time my wife and I visited the restaurant. The food was amazing, and the decor/ambiance was really nice. Our overall experience was great, and we will definitely be visiting the restaurant in the future as there are many items on the menu we want to try.
