Wait staff always wonderful. Domi is a gem 💎.

Waitress was kind of rude aboutvus getting our drinks from the bar after waiting an hour+ for her to even show up at our table. Bartender was amazing. Karaoke was AWESOME!

I did not like the food here. A pizza was ordered, along with chicken piccata. The chicken piccata was among the worst I've ever eaten. The chicken was dry, there were no capers, and the sauce wasn't too flavorful. The pasta with red sauce on the side tasted like it was a microwave meal. Pasta overcooked, sauce bland. The pizza wasn't bad but it's very thin.

Good food and Jules is awesome and the reason I went back to my review and added a star. She makes sure EVERYONE is taken of that's sitting in all areas of the restaurant and is naturally customer friendly.

Everything I have tried at Jennie’s has been delicious. Good atmosphere. Friendly staff. Even my picky eater (daughter) enjoys it.

Must have been an off night for them, drinks took awhile to get, pizzas were warm to cold and took an hour. Pizzas her are always tasty but service this night was way off.

Visited this Fairfield County institution and enjoyed the best Zuppa di Pesce, EVER‼️ Actually, it was the “Supremo” rendition, because it had lobster tail in place of crab legs. We ordered the marinara… version, however it’s available in three additional preparations; olive oil and garlic, fra diavolo or scampi style. We especially liked the rustic presentation, plus it could easily satisfy two hearty appetite’s. Also, the staff is super efficient, courteous and pleasant. Don’t walk, run, to Jennie’s for fine quality, traditional, old world

Always have a good dinner from here. So happy they opened up the restaurant side now. A little busy , but that’s because everyone has been anxiously awaiting the opening.

Amazing food, and outstanding people. I am continually impressed with Jennie’s overall but yesterday had an experience that put them WAY over the top!
It was a hot day and members of the Masuk Football Team… were working hard in the hot sun at their annual car wash. Someone from Jennie’s, a pizza Angel, told us they would send over some pies for the boys!
It was such a lovely gesture and made all of our day. Thank you, Jennie’s for being such amazing supporters of our community. ❤️🏈
The Masuk Football Club appreciates you.
