“ Always 5 star service at Essence! Especially last night! It was our little boys birthday, and Kay, Mo and the team went above and beyond for us all! We were a big group and they made sure we were all sat together! That the children’s meals came first and ours followed. They are always a delight when ever we go in to eat! Or on delivery if we choose to stay at home. We would recommend Essence too all! And the food is always delicious!!! 5 star every time xxxxx ”
“ We ate at essence of India for my husband's birthday , there was 8 of us. We all really enjoyed our meal it was delicious, I ate too much because it was so nice with lots of flavour. The staff there are all polite and friendly. It wasn't over expensive either. I've only given 4 for atmosphere as it was a little cold but otherwise I would recommend it. ”
