    I've been to Jen's many times but this time I was disappointed. Our reservation was 30 minutes late and the food was just ordinary. It was a buffet but the food was lukewarm. The carving station ham was good but the little piece of beef was fatty and I didn't take it. This was our first time at a buffet at Jen's and it will be our last. The regular menu is much better.

    The food and service were great. We wanted to modify what we got from what was on the menu. The restaurant was extremely accommodating. It was a great experience.

    Jen's Guesthouse Restaurant was a wonderful dining experience. From the moment I stepped through the doors, I felt a sense of warmth and hospitality. The atmosphere of the restaurant was inviting, with cozy seating arrangements and soft lighting. The menu at Jen's Guesthouse Restaurant offered a wide variety of dishes, to suit every palate. I was particularly impressed by the appetizers. The brussel sprouts appetizer was a standout, with its crispy exterior and flavorful interior. The combination of textures and flavors tantalized my taste buds and left a lasting impression. For my main meal, I opted for the chicken pot pie. The presentation was visually appealing, and the taste did not disappoint. The flaky crust and savory filling were a harmonious blend of flavors, making it a mouthwatering dish. The portion was generous, and I found myself savoring each bite. The restaurant went above and beyond to make my birthday celebration special. They went above and beyond to ensure my dining experience was memorable. They not only provided excellent service but also surprised me with a free voucher for a free appetizer on my next visit. Overall, Jen's Guesthouse Restaurant was a great experience. The food was exceptional, the service was top-notch, and the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. I’ll definitely be back to try more of their delectable offerings and celebrate the special occasions in my life.
