Overall excellent experience dining at Jasen for the first time. A small group of us wanted to visit before they potentially moved to another location. Everything you could want out of a restaurant. The menu offers a wide variety of flavor profiles from lamb to halibut to cauliflower wedges vegan/vegetarian forward patrons. Ended up ordering a bunch of entrees. Each on better than the last. Personal favorite was the lamb shank. Huge, bursting with flavor (the sauce reduction was great), and tender/fall off the bone. Drinks were tasty. Tastes were curated with time and care. Waitstaff were super friendly, outgoing, and you can tell they put a lot of effort into their craft. Bonus points. The pastry chef was super nice. read more

So sad this place is closing. One of the best prix fix in the area. Excellent service whether inside or on the patio. Romantic. Ambience. Great food and drinks read more

We hardly ever venture out into the suburbs but heard that this place was closing and was pretty well-rated, so we took the trek. I could never have imagined how much we would enjoy this meal. Truly every dish we had was a hit. I may never look at Caesar salad without chicken skin in it the same. Lamb shoulder and halibut were immaculate, which for the latter is especially surprising as I find halibut a difficult fish to make an interesting dish from. The crab arancini it came with I could've eaten 1,000 of-truly such an amazing bite. Maybe our favorite dish. The special was a soft shell crab "BLT": so creative, so lightly battered, and with an outrageous truffle thousand island dressing. I wish I had come here sooner and am sad to know it's closing. The service could not have been friendlier. read more

A wonderful meal and fantastic service. Started with the Thymes Up cocktail. A well balanced gin cocktail was an excellent choice for a 100 degree day. We were treated to amuse bouche and bread/butter. A really nice treat. I ordered the tomato gazpacho topped with pineapple. This was the smoothest gazpacho I have ever had. Bursting with freshness, another hit for such a hot day. My gf and I split the hamachi crude which was absolutely fabulous. Fresh and bright. However, it was grossly overpriced for the miniscule portion. Now, for the showstopper. The miso glazed cod. This dish was gorgeous, well portioned, and the Asian flavors were perfect. From the ginger sweet potato puree, to the wasabi avocado aioli. I couldn't get enough. My gf ordered the lamb shanks which was also out of this world. For dessert, I ordered a special. A mini chocolate milkshake with two perfectly baked chocolate cookies. Overall, an incredible meal. So sad this establishment is closing in Sept. read more

Another great meal at Jansen! Everything is good here--from the service, to the ambiance, to the food! We started with the burrata salad and the butternut squash and lobster soup. The salad was the perfect combination of flavors. The soup was so creamy and rich! We didn't think the brussel sprout garnish added anything to the overall flavor. I got a venison ossobuco, which was tender like a pot roast. I can't remember what the one side was, but it was great. The sauce was delicious as well. The fingerling potatoes were tough and not tasty. My husband got the halibut which came with one lobster pierogi and braised cabbage. He usually doesn't like cabbage, but he enjoyed it in this dish! We finished with the love cake, which was so delicious. For drinks, I got a cosmopolitan and it was perfect. My husband got an old fashioned, which he said was excellent. We will be back again! read more

A true gem to have in Philly. With the help of our waitress (who was stunning and so respectful of our dietary needs/restrictions), the food told us a story. Everything was delicious and the ambiance (even with the downpour), the outside seating was great as we didn't get wet and it was comfortable. Special callouts - chamomile cheesecake, Caesar salad, Brie with salad. I've never been so blown by salad but the texture and flavors were fascinating. The balance of salt and creamy with the anchovies of the Caesar salad was a 10/10 as the anchovies weren't super briny at all. The portions are HUGE btw so it's also worth the money! Please go and have an amazing time. Thank you Chef Jansen and team! read more

I had bookmarked this restaurant a long time ago and was really looking forward to my reservation. I will note that there were definitely some highs and some lows about our visit. As far as highs, the exterior decor gave the visit an immediate coziness. When entering through the front door, it felt like entering a small cottage. We were seated close to the large fireplace, unfortunately I do not think it is an active fireplace - but it was very pretty to look at. We started with the burrata appetizer which appeared different than the photos on Yelp. I think the dish must be seasonal and had roasted squash pieces atop the salad. This was a hearty salad. For entrees we tried the Branzino and the short rib. The short rib was definitely the star of the meal. As someone that is not big on red meat, I would definitely return for this item. It was so tender and the meat was cooked perfectly. Unfortunately, the Branzino was a miss. It was grilled and all that I could taste was the char of the fish - despite removing parts of the skin. We were excited for dessert when we were told there was an in-house pastry chef. We tried the tres leches and the sauce was so sweet, it was saccharine and tasted just like sugar jam. read more

Simply because I can't think of what would have made this visit any better. Hmmm maybe better lighting for my pictures with friends lol I have lived in Mt. Airy my entire life and Jansen is relatively new (last 5-10 years?) This location used to be a different restaurant. I think it goes through variations every ten years or so but goodness, I'd love it if Jansen could stay! So, I'd encourage making reservations at any location in Philadelphia. After living in Pittsburgh for a year, Philly has THEE best food scene in the entire state. Don't fight me on it. We do. Hands down. It got crowded after 6pm on a Tuesday here so be prepared. We were greeted immediately and shown to our table. The ambience is sleek and chic, clean and pretty ummmmm white. So don't expect trendy. The service was knowledgeable and timely. He made great suggestions. Our drinks were strong, which you know by my other reviews, I am a stickler for! Everything I ordered and my friends ordered we agreed was delicious. We had oysters rockerfeller and they were probably some of the best I've ever had. Philly has a loving history with oysters and Jansen did this history justice. I regret not pre-ordering the beef wellington but I will be back to try it. I ordered the halibut. DELICIOUS!!!!! I can't say enough about how wonderfully prepared everything was. And they didn't even get annoyed when we stayed well past our dining time. Oh wait wait Get the dessert. Most restaurants give you some day old cake with a scoop of ice cream on top but Jansen has a pastry chef. It's obvious. The lil carrot cake... whew.... so yummy and not too sweet and just the perfect portion for sharing. My chocolate-lover best friend got the chocolate cake and she said it was perfection. Run, don't walk to this place. You're welcome. read more

Still being careful about Covid, we requested an outdoor table. The setting was very open, beautiful and warm (both in ambiance as well as in temperature, with the actual temperature walking from the car in the low 60s.) They have outdoor heaters, and the patio is covered, with the ability to put the sides down in cold or in-climate weather. Our server Julie was well informed, very enthusiastic and fun to talk to. All the staff we met were very friendly. We started off with 2 interesting cocktails - a Green Chile Gimlet and a Beefeaters Gin drink called "Bees Knees". Both were delicious and were also a surprise Anniversary gift from our Aunt Renee. There were many delicious sounding appetizers to chose from. We had the Oysters Rockefeller with chorizo, potato, garlic thyme cream and arugula which was very good. The other was one you don't see on many menus - Rabbit Pot Pie. This was served in a small ramekin with it's light crust covering a mixture of rabbit, potatoes, root vegetables and a creamy wine-hinted sauce. Although very good, I like the version served at The Dandelion in Center City Philadelphia better. For entrees we had the Roasted Duck Breast with green lentils, fava beans, English peas and creamed wild mushrooms. For my taste it needed a "punch" of maybe some additional seasoning. The Monkfish Osso Buco was very good and perfectly cooked and was served with a lobster bread pudding, English peas, and a rich savory sauce. Our shared desert was a brownie with a layer of chocolate mousse and chocolate ganache over the top. It was served beautifully over a chocolate mosaic design on the plate and it was also a gift for our Anniversary from the Chef. With its beautiful setting and interesting menu we will be sure to come back again. read more

I'm not sure exactly where to start... my husband and I were celebrating our 16th wedding anniversary, we originally had a table inside but the weather was really nice and the exterior was lovely so we moved outside. The setting was wonderful but the service was spotty. Everyone was very nice but random things took forever. For example my husband ordered a bottle of wine and I ordered a cocktail. My cocktail came after about a 10 minute wait and we waited over an additional 10 minutes for the wine to come. Not a great start. They are very kind in making clear they take your allergies seriously but at the same time since nothing is written down they got confused as to exactly what they were a couple times and so ordering our appetizers and meals took a bit of back and forth. We ordered the special seafood appetizer and the carpaccio. Unfortunately they had to come and let me know that my appetizer had something I was allergic to so I pivoted to the tuna. It's the size of a golf ball. I do not understand why it's basically a large bite served as an appetizer. I was told it would be small since it's raw fish but that doesn't explain the tablespoon at most of the tuna in the dish. It was good but truly something one could get at a sushi restaurant and it was certainly not satiating. My husband loved his carpaccio. Our mains were the sirloin and the lamb. We had planned on getting the Dover sole for two but unfortunately they didn't have that tonight. My husband enjoyed his dish, unfortunately my lamb which they said would be prepared med to med rare was cold/raw on the inside and for me inedible. No one came to check on us after the food was delivered. My husband was 95% finished by the time we could get a waitstaff's attention. They took my dish away and I didn't order anything else as my main as by then my husband was finished eating. The offered us a dessert on the house and we ordered one but our main waitress brought two. They were both very good but my husband doesn't like sweets and I wasn't truly interested in eating desserts as my main course so we asked for a box to take home to our son. When the bill came we were charged for one of these desserts. We weren't even going to get dessert and the waitress pushed us to getting one saying it was the least they could do seeing as I hadn't had a meal so this tactic bringing two and charging for one was puzzling. Was it for a better tip? We had already ordered a bottle of wine for $120 plus a couple cocktails, two appetizers and two mains so it's not like the bill was going to be minimal without my main... Bottom line everyone was nice and they have a "we all help each other" style so you really don't have a main point of contact and therefore things fall through the cracks. My husband really enjoyed his meal but I left hungry and truly disappointed. Maybe it was an off night. read more

A long time patron of Jansen, I inquired about hosting my partner's 50th surprise in their garden patio oasis... much to my thrill, they're becoming quite adept at hosting parties (either sit down OR cocktail style). I opted for a cocktail style event and it was just PERFECT. A detail oriented person, I was very pleased working with Jerri Banks (event manager). She was outstanding in all communication via email and phone. She didn't miss a beat. Indulged my every ask. And made great recommendations based on her extensive history in the business. Jansen provided signature cocktails based on my request, with a stunning collection of beer and wine options. They were excellent about offering mocktails to our zero-proof preferring friends and family. The food was the standard - outstanding - as it always is when we're dining privately. The new pastry chef did not disappoint with a lovely array of desserts (and the special birthday cake was delicious!) Service was perfect. My "day of" communication with the general manager, Zac, was perfect. He absolutely helped me to pull off a several month long planned event as a surprise, and it surely was! We feel very special when we dine at Jansen and we value that as much as we value the culinary experience. The staff are all very friendly and personable. David Jansen runs an impressive operation, highlighted by sheer consistency in every aspect of the experience. It's my go-to place for dinner, especially when welcoming family and friends to the neighborhood. We are most lucky to have this kind of establishment only a few blocks away from our home. We love you all at Jansen and look forward to continued patronage. read more

So my wife really wanted to go here for her birthday. We had reservations we made a month ago before the COVID kid came back in full swing. However as we approached the end of December we weren't feeling all that comfortable going out to eat. So we canceled them and my wife texted me "worst birthday ever". So I didn't want to plow through the day without celebrating the light of my life. We talked about it and we're like let's just do take out from there rather than go in. Also this is in no way criticizing their COVID policies. No clue what they even are. We ordered online the night before. This was a little bit of a pain because it just a box you type into. Nothing to select. So we had one phone on the menu and one phone on the order form. Also I was trying to use the exact wording they used for fear of getting it incorrect. I have a feeling this process leads to misunderstandings between parties. That's really my only criticism. So I got the Elk. First time I've ever had Elk and it was really awesome. It came with mushroom risotto that was delicious and vanilla sweetened carrots. I was super happy with my choice. It also came with a bone that I assume I was supposed to eat the marrow out of. I tried it but I've never eaten that before either and that's not my cup of tea. That was pretty gross. In my opinion that's is a matter of taste. Not any slight to how it was prepared. My wife had the Norwegian Salmon. Of course she couldn't finish the whole feeeesh and I was able to taste that as well. It was also very very good. We got two salads as starters. Didn't even open one of them until next day. It's a little expensive but I do think you get enough food. Id say you get what you pay for here. read more

Come to this place often. Very fancy and certainly exceeds expectations. People are very friendly and happy to answer questions. My family loves the beet cocktail and I have enjoyed every I have tried. Would recommend the oysters and all the specials! They are great! Today we sat outside and there was a small fire in the middle contained by rocks. Despite it being outdoors it's in a clear tent and heated so we were very toasty. I'm hoping to try the beef Wellington soon, since it sounds amazing. If I could I would go here every single day. Sorry for the dark pictures, the lighting is not very bright. This food is so good, I almost have to get up and dance with each bite!!! read more

You will enjoy Jansen! We ate here on Nov 23, 2019. Wow! I am so bummed we haven't been here sooner. This is a hidden gem: the food, the service and the ambiance are wonderful. The service timing and execution was flawless. The flavors of my meal were complex and delicious. The ambiance and décor really add to the experience as we dined in an old cottage established in 1700. The recently renovated interior is cozy and the local art hanging on the wall really compliments the charm to Jansen. I wish I could have taken more photos for this review, but I think there is plenty on Yelp already. The weather didn't lend itself to eating outside but I was happy to see they have outdoor dining as an option. We will be back! read more

After a few months hiding out we went to try this at a friend's recommendation. It was some of the best modern American I've had. Everything was done perfectly, from the seared tuna to my wife's veal. The people are also awesome. My wife inquired about the lobster cocktail and decided against it, and our server mentioned it to the owner, who gave her one free of charge. They wouldn't even tell me what it cost, so we just tipped extra. Definitely well worth it, I'm so glad they made it through the last year. read more

BEST BRUNCH IN PHILLY! You heard it here first. The Sunday-only Brunch here flies under the radar especially if you do not follow them on Instagram/Facebook and do not venture to the Mt Airy area. Jansen is known for it's white tablecloth dinner experience (which is a more than fair price, in my opinion), but they deliver an incredible, affordable brunch menu that tops the frequently visited/trendy Center City area spots. My friend and I came in with a single intention: the Sticky Buns. If you check out their social media or have ever had one of their desserts made by their pastry chef, you'll understand. We arrived shortly after opening with a reservation two and were promptly sat next to the fireplace. As a cool historical note, Jansen is housed in Cresheim Cottage which was built in the 1700s and oldest in the area! My friend and I immediately started drooling over the menu options with stomachs ready - we were in the middle of our kick that included a 4-course meals from Twisted Tail and two pizzas plus a sandwich from Angelos (see my reviews) within a 4-day span. Our server promptly tended to us and certainly fed the fire saying everything was delicious. We were undecided. Our final entree order? Chicken and Waffles, Monte Cristo, Huevos Rancheros, and French Toast. Told you - undecided. Our server laughed and asked if she could interest us in the fresh breakfast bread and pastry spread to start. We caved, of course. The breakfast bread and pastry is nothing eye-popping, but, boy, does it deliver. The spread consisted of peppered biscuits, buttered rolls, biscotti, and caramel glazed banana bread with honey butter and peach jam on the side - all homemade. The biscuits were flaky, moist and, when coupled with the rich and light honey butter, some of the best I've ever had. The rolls were fresh and melt in your mouth. Banana bread was moist, not overly sweet from the glaze, but a little light on the banana flavor. We treated the biscotti - which was a bit bland - as a vessel for the perfect peach jam and extra butter. Great starter! To our amazement with our aggressive entree order, the kitchen offered us a sample of breakfast egg-rolls. My taste buds are still dancing thinking about them. The bite-sized egg-rolls were filled with light, fluffy eggs, breakfast sausage, wrapped by crispy, flaky, lightly fried roll and topped with a dollop of ketchup. Pure bliss and enjoyment! After devouring the egg-rolls, we were greeted with our first entree: Chicken and Waffles. As a note, it does come with candied pecan, but, since I have an allergy, they gave them to my friend on the side. The dish itself is a masterpiece with thoughtful flavors. In addition to the standard sweet/savory compliment of chicken and waffle, the waffle itself contains bacon and homemade toffee for added compliments. The fried chicken itself is tied for the best I've ever had. Period. Crisp, tender, and rich with flavor. The waffle was sweet and crisp. As mentioned, the toffee and bacon was like a symphony in my mouth. The fresh maple syrup is nothing to bat an eye at either! We agreed this was our favorite dish! Next up was the Monte Cristo and Huevos Rancheros. I started with the Huevos Rancheros which was a well executed rendition. The bean and salsa concoction was light and flavorful. Tortillas were crisp and light, so no issue cutting into them with compromise of the crunch. I really enjoyed poached eggs vice the normal sunny side up. The dish was a masterful blend of flavors and textures. Careful with the fresh jalapenos though. After eating my half, I moved onto the Monte Cristo. It's good, but definitely the first one out if we had to reduce our order since it's heavy. The dish is taylor ham (PORK ROLL!!!), turkey, gruyer cheese between two pieces of thick french toast then topped with two sunny side eggs and mornay sauce plus a side of syrup. Although its a heavy dish, the flavors kept me chugging through the dish with the 4th on the horizon. By the time the Brioche French Toast came, we were all but ready to tap out. Still had to try and, again, it was well worth it! The french toast was lightly dipped in batter so not overly eggy, but enough to get that perfect crisp outside without compromising the soft, chewy consistency of the inside. The berries and syrup added the perfect additional amount of sweetness. Great for leftovers, too! In the end, we did not get what we came for: the Sticky Buns. Don't worry though, I came back for them the next week. Again, phenomenal! Jansen is THE BEST BRUNCH IN PHILLY. Hands down. I cannot wait to go again - just need someone available on a Sunday morning. Check it out! If something sounds good, it probably is. Mimosa and Bloody Marys are creative at reasonable prices if you want to make it boozy. Will go again! read more

I lived in the area for a long time and remember when this was the Cresheim Cottage restaurant. I was looking forward to trying the newly opened Jansen's when I heard about it. I was not let down. I take my wife here almost every year for her birthday. The year covid stopped indoor dining we did the father's day surf and turf and had HUGE crab legs with steak and lobster tail. I was blown away with the order coming out in metal catering trays. This place is really special with the location, chef and wait staff really creating an experience every time you come here. I've only had one mediocre experience ordering pickup with one dish I didn't like. I have dined here every year and can easily brush that over my shoulder. I hope the staff keep up the good job and continue providing the best dining experience in the area! read more

The steak was cooked to perfection and the other flavors accented it perfectly. 100/10 will be dining again. read more

We went for our anniversary and while I liked it, I didn't love it. We sat inside at a 2 top, dining 18 in away from the next table. Always a bit awkward. Our server was lovely and very professional. The timing of the courses was good, too. Alcohol options were solid. Now on to the food- we loved the lobster squash soup, pork belly ravioli and tuna tataki appetizers. Our entrees fell short- I ordered the crab galette, expecting it to be the galette I was familiar with- like an open faced pastry tart. It was just a crab cake- granted- it was all crabmeat but just left me feeling meh. For $42 I wanted to love it (and I expected the price to be high given the plight of Alaskan crabs). My table neighbor had the chickpea curry- it looked great and I wish I chose that. Hubs got the boar shank special- he's had boar before but really didn't enjoy this iteration. For having been roasted all day, it was a bit dry and there was limited au jus. I know people whose opinions I value and they love it here- but for $250, I'm not rushing back (if at all). read more
