Highly highly recommend. The chefs menus & counter was such a great experience!!! Our waiter Ryan was very attentive. The chefs were also amazing, we went in with a food allergy & intolerance and not once did they make us feel like a burden.

Love the change to a price fixe or chefs tasting menu. We went for Christmas Eve and loved the experience. We had a great server, love the ambiance and the food was delicious and innovative. The price fixe is three courses, but they give you more to try. It was more than a dinner out, it was an experience. I highly recommend.

This was the best meal I have had all year. To put that in contest I have enjoyed meals at very highly rated restaurants in NYC, Boston, San Diego, Cape Cod, as well as all over Connecticut. The food could not have been more delicious. Our waiter was phenomenal. I will be back and more than once. I will next try you Branford location as it is closer to home. Thank you for a wonderful dining experience.

Our dinner with friends at The Essex was beyond expectations. Service was friendly, knowledgeable, and well paced. We opted for the three course price fixe and were pleasantly surprised by the appetizer course we were served before the salad course. At $79 per person the dinner was very reasonably priced for the quality and quantity. Our first and main courses were outstanding. My strip steak perfectly cooked to medium rare and the whole table enjoyed the frites. The halibut and scallops along with the sauces and vegetables were excellent. Dessert choices were very generous although I hit my limit after a few bites of the baked Alaska. The menu was heavy on seafood which restricted our friend who has a fish and shellfish allergy. But once aware of that and a nut allergy, every dish was carefully adjusted for nuts. Dining at the Essex is a wonderful treat. We will be back.

Nice atmosphere, a little tight and got noisy like being in a pub. Menu is pricey but interesting. Is it worth the money? Maybe once, judge for yourself.

Absolutely incredible meal start to finish. Inventive takes on old standards, plus some totally new concepts. Sometimes we had no idea exactly what we were eating, since exact descriptions are hard to put on a menu. But every bite turned out to be a beyond-delicious surprise. $79 prix fixe is steep for Old Saybrook, but I'm not sure how they could pull this off for less given ingredients and attention to detail.

We were there the first night of the brand new menu. We had an excellent meal overall however the french fries that came with the steak were greasy and only tasted like the oil of the fryer. Foie “psicle” was interesting. A little bit heavy on the onion flavor, but would do it again. There were only a few tables, so not a great time to judge the overall noise level of the restaurant. Service was excellent. Definitely will go back.

We had the 7 course chef’s experience with wine pairing. Absolutely outstanding! The first course was unbelievably delicious. Yet somehow each course got even better. Wine selection was beautifully paired. Waiter was attentive and very helpful with descriptions. Loved our experience.
