Essie's Restaurant Reviews
Adorable hole in the wall with great food. Very tiny space, absolutely slammed for Sunday brunch with just two FOH workers and no backup but they nailed it anyway. Sharp, fast staff. Precisely executed food. Glad we finally were able to make it in (they're closed Mondays when we normally have off work) so if you work a M-F job and can come on weekends, you should!
Best meal I've had in years. Perfectly seasoned. It's evident this chef knows exactly what he's doing. Everything was so fresh and flavorful.Vegetarian options: I had the vegetarian pasta. Was full of seasonal vegtables and squash.

Saturday early evening had plenty of tables available. As the evening progressed, more patrons were consistently coming in. The chicken and dumplings are recommended. Various Caribbean American cuisine on the menu.
