Does anyone know when they will open their new location (formerly Jenny's)?

Also, has anyone eaten there, and if so, how is it?

No idea on the opening. We ate there once in 2007. The ambience was HORRENDOUS (ripped vinyl booth seating, freezing cold, in a run-down strip mall), but the food was AMAZING although very pricey (good thing we had our Entertainment book 2-for-1 dinner entree coupon). My husband, his aunt, and I all loved our food. However, it appears they are under new ownership and I don't see one thing on the new menu that I would order so even though we had another Entertainment book for 2008 and now the new 2009 book, we won't be eating there again.

Just my two cents.

We just went last night and LOVED it! They said Folsom should be open within a few weeks--just needed a few more things done and the city to finalize everything but I would think it will be open by December. It is on the expensive side but the food was AMAZING...totally worth it! Give it a try--I don't think you will be disappointed!

Havent been there in a few years but we always had a good meal there. Always used a 2:1 coupon and felt the price was reasonable with that. I dont think I'd go there and pay full price. But I'm a little bit on the frugal side.

If you like to pay to much for salt and fat and frozen noodles then the place is great letseat.gif Also word on the street is, at their new restaurant they dont pay there sub-contractors... They don't sound very reputable to me.

If I were to post something like this about a restaurant (new or old, in town or out of town), I would receive plenty of VICIOUS ATTACKS.

there's a difference between doing that once and doing that every single time someone mentions their favorite Folsom based restaurant

besides, we thought that was you with yet another new ID tongue.gif

Thank you for telling it like it is.

You say that a lot, and everytime I think "the word you're looking for is clique." Unless it's just that you have some kind of new fangled mouse that doesn't click or something.
