I celebrated my birthday here last night and can I tell you I am still smiling, looking at pics/vids sent to me and most of all still thanking God for the night. It was amazing and all my peeps had a great time and talked about how good the food was. Very nice atmosphere and it felt safe, which is important! Thank you Essence. Special shout out to the DJ! A night I hope to never forget♥

Enjoyed patronizing this establishment. Intimate space, bar & table set up, with stage platform and DJ station. We attended a live evening comedy show hosted on Wednesdays with Ace Zanders & Friends. Great entertainment, food, and drinks. The chicken wings and fried shrimp were so good! Attentive and courteous servers doubled as the bar attendants. It was a welcomed vibe.

Pollin was amazing. I came with my sister and cousin just for a girls night. She immediately greeted us with great hips and sat us. She checked in on us throughout the whole the time here. I would definitely come back and request to be served by her! Pollin deserves a raise! Excellent employee. K

Essence is a very laid back lounge. Greatly appreciate the "old school " vibe. The evening that I visited was during a holiday weekend. It was perfectly perfect. Not too crowded and just happened to be karaoke night. The DJ, was on point, the staff was superb and I even sang a song or two along with my back up singers. :]
