Absolutely Devine atmosphere and food. For a moment I thought I was in the Michelin star restaurant. The ambience with dj playing on Friday night, the friendly staff and amazing chef that came out to us to see how we enjoyed our night was absolutely incredible. Every food option was worth taking a picture and enjoying its taste. This place is truly a gem!! Can’t wait to be back!

This little hidden gem was a nice surprise. Join some girlfriends for brunch and we wanted to try a new place. The food was fresh, wholesome and delicious. They offered a variety of cold press healthy juices as well. The service was excellent. Will be back

Essence Bistro on Woodbridge Avenue is a culinary gem that truly deserves a five-star review! From the moment you step inside, you're greeted by a warm and inviting atmosphere that sets the perfect tone for a delightful dining experience.

The service at Essence Bistro was exceptional. The staff were attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about the food they served.
Overall, Essence Bistro is a must-visit for anyone in the area. With its delicious food, excellent service, and charming ambiance, it promises a memorable dining experience that will keep you coming back for more!

I ordered the duck and shared the mushroom risotto with my friend, and they were both delicious! The duck was incredibly tender, practically melting in my mouth with each bite. It was perfectly cooked, with a rich, savory flavor that was complemented by the subtle seasoning. As for the mushroom risotto, it was creamy and velvety, with an earthy depth from the mushrooms that made it truly comforting and indulgent. Together, they created a meal that was satisfying and full of flavor!

Had a baby shower here lastnight , so beautiful, food was excellent , very intimate setting for your guests. Staff were so helpful, they helped me with every single aspect including setting up from start to finish , I did not even need to add much as the decor of the restaurant was already so so aesthetically pleasing . Special thanks to Claudia also for helping me along the way

Great food, beautiful space. Plenty of space between tables. Kids options available.
Had our team holiday dinner there. Service was excellent! We ordered various dishes to share. Favourites were the ribeye (cooked medium rare and was perfect!), Lamb chops were delish, burrata so good, oysters excellent. Those were our favourites.

Amazing night for my 50th! Back home visiting from Australia and my wife chose your restaurant. You did not disappoint and also catered to some coeliacs in the group. Food was amazing. Loved the DJ! 👍👍

Lovely dinner out with friend. Beautifully prepared dishes, informative staff who explained the flavours and were attentive. The new autumn menu is a must try if you like pumpkin. The cocktails were perfect! Will be back soon. We had the duck, pumpkin goat cheese salad, risotto, lamb chops ( the grapes were an added surprise for the palate) leek soup and their grass fed butter and sour dough bread which are all delicious, healthy and delightful in their own way. The cheesecake is a must if you are staying for dessert.
