Restaurants near Essex River

"Have loved this place since I moved to New England in 1986! Back then it was Tom Shea's and some friends took us here to show us how special New England is. It didn't disappoint then, and it hasn't disappointed since! We've been for special occasions (anniversaries, birthdays, etc.), on the way home from the beach for cocktails and apps, or just when we go for a drive on a Sunday to stop and watch the sunset from the bar or deck. Many happy memories at this place, and I'm so happy that it just keeps getting better with time!"See more

"Delicious and authentic Mediterranean foods--mostly Greek and Italian but including more eastern dishes such as falafel and hummus. It is the first American restaurant on which I have seen rabbit in many years, prepared as a rich stew. The pastas (shrimp pesto and short ribs ragout) were wonderful as was the falafel and the shrimps saganaki. Desserts were also excellent--chocolate mousse cake especially."See more
