We have been so glad to have found this place. The food is exceptional, atmosphere top notch, and service outstanding. The extra price you pay is well worth the experience of fine dining
First time we without a 5vstar review. Nothing was completely wrong, it just wasn't completely right. I ordered the special, at 6:30, and they were out. I then opted for the Filet, which was cooked right, but thin. I asked for no sauce, it came smothered. Just a bit off.
Essence Kitchen + Bar is a true gem! From the moment you walk in, the sophisticated yet cozy atmosphere sets the stage for a perfect evening. The menu is thoughtfully curated with fresh, seasonal ingredients that really shine in every dish. The presentation was beautiful, and the flavors were incredibly well-balanced. It’s the perfect spot for a date night or a high-quality meal with friends. Five stars!
