We were created to deliver premium food and drinks and soulful vibes to New Jersey food and music lovers by our incredible team and comfort food kitchen. Myth, art, love, and beauty paired with our reverence for hospitality have inspired us to create an intimate space for the culturally curious to experience life in the present.
Went here for my birthday. Had an amazing time. Food was great, service was amazing. I would recommend the Cajon crab and shrimp pasta and finish it off with the peach cobbler cheesecake.... amazing the staff was exceptional also. I have told all my friends and family about Essies and I can't wait to return.
Can't wait to return! All the food tasted great from the appetizer to the dessert. Especially the main course. The service was fantastic as well. Everyone was very polite. We were seated in the upstairs lounge area and really enjoyed ourselves. Decor is nice, and the atmosphere is great for date night...
Top tier is all I can say! From the food, the ambience, and the music. I really enjoyed myself along with my family. Our waitresses were top tier and very knowledgeable if the menus. Essie's is a must visit!
I was so impressed! My first time at Essies and it won't be my last! Everything was dope from the layout to the decor, the music, food and drinks were on point, service was great. Really really dope spot, I wish I knew about it sooner!
We went early for a bite. Loved the hustle puppies ( and I usually don't eat them). Fish tacos were good, and the cajun seafood pasta special was delicious. Looking forward to going back when there's live music.
