    The food is outstanding and the staff even better. The food is homemade and is beyond delicious. We’ve been a few times now and this restaurant never disappoints. I would encourage anyone to save room for the dessert. They are all delectable and worth every ounce of indulgence.

    Not only was the food impressive at The Essex Brasserie, but the ambiance and service was exceptional, as well. From wine to food to cocktails, our server was extremely knowledgeable about the menu, which made ordering lighthearted and breezy. With a party of 5, noise level could become a concern. But the volume was at a minimum all night, even as the dining room and bar filled up on a Saturday evening. Also, although the menu may seem pricey, the quality of food and generous servings more than make up for it - you are truly getting what you pay for. Although we loved everything we got, among our favorites were the Nantua Moules Frites, Lobster Thermidor, and the Filet (which was cooked to perfection). We will absolutely be back!
