Jessica's is one of the finest restaurants and inns in the region! The hospitality is unmatched. The chef is excellent! The staff treats everyone as family and have a skill to remember preferences. This is a gem of a place!
Enjoyable evening, nice ambiance and wonderful and professional staff. Food was overcooked on several plates, duck ended up a little dry and scallops were burned on one side. Otherwise ver good time
They have very good food and wonderful service. We would recommend.
Lovely setting. Food beautifully prepared. Staff is particularily courteous and attentive. Prices are a bit high but worth every penny especially if you are celebrating a special occasion.
Dave and I can not thank you enough for your kindness to us this evening as we celebrated our 55th anniversary. We shared with you our story of marriage 10 days before his deployment to Vietnam in 1970 and how very precious this day is to us, as well as our gratitude that he returned to be able to establish our family and continue to celebrate every year of our lives together. Your generosity is why we only go to dinner at your restaurant, to enjoy not only the best cuisine, but the most caring staff in all of Vermont. I share with you my poem to my precious husband on this day. Please pass it along to Jay, our wonderful friend and supreme waiter, who shares his poetry with us from time to time! Most gratefully, Patty The Gift A gift is often a surprise, An unanticipated treasure. Wrapped in beautiful color, Not knowing what's inside Until you pry open the wrappings - Which sometimes isn't easy If wrapped too well to protect the gift inside. But with tender, careful, Even cautious unfolding, The treasure is finally revealed. And you cry with joy And even astonishment - It's so beautiful, so joyful, It fills you with light. And your heart wants to break With the wonder of this precious gift - It's YOU! Happy Anniversary, my precious gift Patty Sent from my iPad
We had an amazing experience at Jessica's last night. The food was the best I've had in the 30 years I've been visiting the Middlebury area. Everyone at the table remarked on how flavorful the food was and how lovely it was plated. Jessica's wine list is very extensive with bottles at every price point. I particularly appreciated the last page with selections outside of the usual suspects. We had an excellent bottle of Greek wine, which one doesn't typically find in the US, at a very reasonable price. Finally, the service was impeccable. We were greeted at the door, shown to a quiet table, and waited on by attentive staff the entire evening. I highly recommend an evening at Jessica's!
Lovely atmosphere, very pleasant staff, good drinks, delicious soup and salad, and except for an inferior piece of duck the entrees were very good. Nice dessert too.
We had an amazing dinner for my wife's birthday. The pork belly was to die for. My wife loved the steak frites, while I thoroughly enjoyed the special that night of venison medallions. And trust us, save room for dessert.
Excellent!
The sommelier needs some lessons. She opened our wine and then took it away and poured it out without us seeing it. Then she took away the carafe when it still had wine in it and then added a new bottle again not in front of us. Such bad training. Very disappointing.

Authentic restaurant that is beautifully decorated and also very inviting and comfortable. Every staff person was friendly, enthusiastic and knowledgable. The menu has many delicious choices. The Sunday supper was perfect in presentations for all 3 courses. The nicely trimmed pork chop was slightly overdone but the sauce and accompaniments helped to overcome that. We had a delightful time and will highly recommend and return.
The food and cocktails were amazing as usual and the staff were so accommodating with all of our needs
Jessica’s was tremendous. The food was perfect, we loved the pork belly. Atmosphere was charming, service was great, really delightful restaurant experience.
Swift house is so beautiful! They treat everyone like royalty service is impeccable. Rooms are perfect and the food is always amazing! The cleaning staff are so polite and work so hard.
The service and atmosphere were great. My boyfriend had the chicken and I had the steak frites-in both, the meats were melt in your mouth. On top of all that, it was our anniversary and they went above and beyond by offering complementary champagne.
