Consistently good and clean
Good food, especially the pick and choose to fill a container. Lots of food choices available. Excellent fresh orange juice. Buffet was good for both breakfast and lunch.
Excellent food. Floors are sticky though.

ESSEN offers a variety of food options, including a buffet that changes from breakfast to lunch. Guests enjoy choosing their food from a selection of hot and cold items, serving themselves and paying by weight. While some find the staff may add tips without providing extra service questionable, many appreciate the ability to customize their meals. The restaurant is popular for its fresh produce and made-to-order dishes. It's a recommended spot in Manhattan's Time Square area, where visitors can enjoy bakery items and choose between sitting down or taking out. The breakfast buffet is particularly praised for catering to different tastes, especially for those looking for options like morning oatmeal with fresh berries. ESSEN also features an enormous selection of ready-to-eat meals and counters for ordering hot and cold food. Although the prices are considered a bit high, many note that there are reasonably-priced healthy options available. Visitors should be aware that paying by card may incur extra charges not clearly indicated on the receipt.
