“ We just had the best Saturday night takeaway from Jenny. Could not recommend highly enough. High quality, super tasty and very reasonably priced. The fish cakes were amazing and the curries delightful. We will be back ”
“ I love Jenny Koo's, great little local place, always have great food from there, especially any of the pork options as they're always just so soft and fall apart. Highly recommend ”
“ Inside the old marketplace, this is a delightful cafe with lovely staff and great produce. Delicious coffee. I bought one of their Pasties which was scrumptious. Good value, great produce, great people. ”
“ Just back from the most delicious pre-booked evening meal for three of us (2 adults and a 13 year old). It was a calm, warm evening which made it even nicer to be sat outside. Lovely welcome and service from Leanne and Jenny. Every mouthful was full of flavour and the right balance of spice. Lovely wine, too! We have been intending to come here before, and certainly will now be visiting again very soon. Thank you ”
“ Found this gem while wandering through Dartmouth - what a delight! Was slightly maxed out from Fish and Chips over our trip- an Asian cafe , fresh food and a changing menu! My partner had the egg fried chicken rice, I had the pork baguette - heaven! Kudos to the special Malaysian spice sambal sauce too - make sure you ask for it! Jenny came round to personally ask us how we enjoyed the food , a lovely touch. Also make sure you try their cakes! ”
“ Had breakfast. Asian steak and eggs. Waa the best breakfast I have ever had. Service was amazing and pricing was good. Dog friendly too. Go and visit this place. You won't be disappointed. ”
“ A must visit if you enjoy flavoursome products and are in Dartmouth. We visited the deli store after I saw Jenny also makes her own products, which are sold here. She was very welcoming and offered tasters, including tips on how they could be used. We're excited to try out the mango & black peppercorn sauce and will be returning in the future for more. ”
“ We visited Jenny's kitchen today and we both loved the vegan noodle soup options. I had the Turmeric Tofu and my partner had the Sweet Chilli Aubergine. It seemed like a daily menu so I can't guarantee what will be on the menu in future but Jenny was really friendly and helpful, and everything was cooked fresh to order, so I think there'd always be a vegan option available. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for vegan options in Dartmouth, especially when it's warm enough to "dine in" (in the courtyard outside). ”
