Incredible. Best scallops I've had all summer, the risotto and veggies that accompany them are amazing. The service is wonderful. I was not expecting this. My mother had bone-in chicken breast with polenta, carrots and figs. My daughter the filet mignon which was cooked to perfection. The meatball and octopus were also so savory. You need to try this place. Everyone was so kind and the chef came out to greet us as well.

New location, same great food and service! So thrilled to see Chef Armen continue his success and welcome guests in a much bigger space that now includes a pretty outdoor area. The staff is very attentive, attentive and detailed. Upon arrival, we were shown to our table yet my eyes wandered to another preferred table and the host noticed my wandering eyes and moved us to our preferred without any hesitation. That's service. The food is still as delicious as I remember it from the first time I visited the other location. I'm sad to see that pizzas are no longer offered. We all thoroughly enjoyed each dish - with a particular love for the crab crepe which was rich without overwhelming you with heaviness. Bring your preferred cocktails and wine and enjoy a leisurely dining experience. Well done Chef and staff!

Same great food . Their white mussels dish may be my favorite dish of any restaurant of all time. You really can't go wrong with anything at this place. And now that they've moved to a beautiful new space it's an even better experience than it was before at their old location. And the parking is a lot better at the new place too.

Hidden gem in New Jersey, beautiful upscale place in Fanwood NJ with great service where reservations are highly recommended. We went for a post Father's Day dinner. We ordered Spanish octopus and crab crepes to start with. Octopus was succulent and juicy, crab meat crepe was good, felt like a more crab meat could have been added. Our entrees we had the lamb, pork chops the signature famous dish for Jessica's and seafood fettuccine. My favorite was the pasta, pork was a bit tough, lamb was medium rare and ok. I felt the meat dishes could have been made a little more flavorful , the pasta had a nice kick to it. Overall the entrees were huge so had to take leftovers. We finished with apricot pudding and ice cream. Overall a really good experience at this NJ gem, hoping to go again someday, very well trained staff.

Fantastic food and service! Came here for a 10 year anniversary and we were very impressed. It is byob. The menu was seasonal. I loved their cream of mushroom soup, and the pork chip was delicious! The chorizo and vegetables on it were so tasty. For dessert we indulged in the caramelized banana split. I loved the flavor and texture on the banana, very unique!

We came to the new location and it was fantastic! My buddy started with an order of oysters. He said they were fresh & delicious. They bring out complimentary bread that was light and sweet. We all shared an order of grilled octopus that was seasoned perfectly and was tender and not rubbery at all. I ordered the home made SHORT RIB CAVATELLI Short Rib Cavatelli with maitake mushrooms, burrata, white truffle oil, fresh herbs, tomato ragù. The pasta was outstanding, the sauce was light and didn't have too much of any spice. The meat was soft and well seasoned. My wife ordered the pork chop and she said it was easily one of the best she ever had! We all shared the caramelized banana split with vanilla ice cream, and banana ice cream, walnut crumbles, chocolate sauce, fresh berries. The whole meal was a delight and I'm so happy they moved to this larger location.

Such an unbelievable dining experience !! I was never able to make it to their old location but this place is sharp. Awesome decor and tones for a nice little date night setting. Renovations look great, the service was top tier and the food was impressive across the board. Everything pretty much made in house, talented chef using a French Italian fusion technique. MUST TRY!
