Service

Celebrating special occasions at Essence is a memorable experience. The owner&rsquo;s personal touch, like handwritten cards and thoughtful gestures, adds to the charm of this fine dining restaurant.

I highly recommend the Great Scott Burger! It lived up to the hype with its giant patties and delicious flavor. The portion sizes are generous, making it great value for money.
