   I was at Jen’s Guesthouse 2 evenings in a row for friends Christmas celebrations! And I’ve had many occasions in the past to enjoy their food & ambiance! ALWAYS a superb experience! It is my favorite restaurant!

   Good restaurant! And a good birthday for Mom!! I had the Lake Perch which was coiked perfectly, and others at my table got the ribs and the scallops. But my favorite is the Chicken Piccata I had before. I highly recommend this place!

   We've been to Jen's several times and always felt good about the overall experience. Not so much on Thanksgiving. It was a buffet style dinner. The good was actually very good. However we felt like we were at a food shelter! Very noisy, very crowded. Worst of all it was $124 for two people. That included one glass of wine for $10, and 2 cups of coffee at $3.00 each. There was a nice selection of options including turkey, prime rib, and ham. Lots of options for side dishes and desserts. I suppose if you had seconds of this it would be worth it, but as two seniors we thought the overall meal and lack of ambiance made for an expensive meal out. $150 for two including $26 tip. We do recommend this restaurant for a more traditional meal vs the Thanksgiving buffet!

    We went for Thanksgiving and the experience overall was lovely. Food was good and as a vegetarian I appreciated the variety of dishes that allowed me several non meat options. The restaurant was very crowded and it would be nicer to have more space between tables.

    Great food but overpriced and overcrowded! People standing in line were mixing with people standing in line to get their food. The food was poorly managed and ran out. Not worth the extremely high prices.

    Went with a group of friends Sunday evening. Our waitress knew we were chatting and catching up, so she did not rush us at all. We all ordered something different and our meals were delicious and HOT!!! Very soothing atmosphere and will be back again.

    Strange there are no appetizers that are easy to share on the menu. Ordered the sirloin tips to share, wanted w/o gravy, came with it. I’m old school, women should be asked their food choices 1st and wait staff should check food as it comes out for accuracy. Average age eating in the restaurant was 60, so know I’m not alone. Scallops, sea bass, steaks all very good.

    This restaurant is an oasis of beautiful atmosphere, fantastic food that is not going to break you bank, and wonderful service! It’s location is off the beaten path making it even more charming. The menu has great variety. I was told by the server that the appetizer called crustinos was unique and tasty. OMG! She was right. I highly recommend it! Also the cocktails list is full of interesting twists on old classics. Especially if you love bourbon! I hope you enjoy as much as I did.

    Food was good (lamb, scallops, salmon, & white fish were ordered) seemed like they were low on asparagus since both whitefish orders each only had 3 stalks & the 1-salmon order had 8 stalks. It was very bright at the table where they sat us (room off to the right of the main room) so we asked them to dim the lighting above us & they did thank goodness. We will return when the weather is nice again to sit outside—did not enjoy the inside. Would recommend only for summer outside dining.

    Ate there twice this week. Absolutely love the ambiance and always decorated nicely. Food is excellent and I had salmon twice others had pork chops and fried chicken. Owner is very personable and could be seen engaging guests ensuring everyone was well served and also assisting staff. Always look forward to going there and always my first suggestion when asked. Tuesday they had Tinley Park PAWS with pets on the patio. ❤️
