    Coming to Jen’s Guesthouse has been a tradition of ours for the last 4-5 years. I would have rated our Christmas Eve outing 5 stars except for one thing. They don’t play any music. It would make it much more festive if they played Christmas music.

    Jen’s Guesthouse is amazing - the holiday decorations are just beautiful. Our waitress, Martha, was fantastic! We ordered the Whitefish, Salmon, Scallops & Jen’s sampler. Everything was delicious- we will be back for sure.

    Christmas decorations were lovely, the waitress was great and interactive, and the service was fine. However, the noise level was so loud you had to yell to the person next to you. There was a singer, and the only time the meal was pleasant was when he took a break and we could actually hear each other.

    I really liked this restaurant. It is a cozy place, with a nice location and very easy parking. My mixed grill was very good. The service was very prompt and attentive. I hope to come back.
