What Janina Atmadi doesn't like about Beauty And Essex:
First of all I loved the location. In a very interesting neighbourhood, kinda weird hidden entrance, interesting interior. We were a bigger group of friends, so we had our fun. Food was really nice and tasty especially the smaller bites to try things out. The staff was friendly and tried its best, but there was a bigger delay, we had to reorder and remind them, the type of coffe got mixed up quite a few times. Recomm... View all feedback. What OpenTable Diner likes about Beauty And Essex:
My experience there was amazing. I went there for my birthday dinner, and the staff is very accommodating to me, bringing my own cake and even serve it to us. It was over all a very good night with amazing service. View all feedback.

This was my first time with my family and this place was so amazing that wait, again the staff was excellent and the eating was unpromisingly great

Nestled in a unique neighborhood, this restaurant offers a fascinating hidden entrance and captivating interior. Despite some delays and mix-ups with orders, the service was friendly. The food, although in small portions, was delicious and worth trying out. The ambience was described as fantastic, with a smart casual dress code. The menu offers dishes for sharing, with recommendations for group dining. Highlights included dishes like kale salad, fish tacos, and beef Wellington. The champagne brunch party was lauded for its entertainment and generous portions. Overall, this is a highly recommended spot with amazing food, excellent service, and a trendy atmosphere that sets the perfect tone for a memorable dining experience.

Nice food in weird, tacky surroundings. If you like new American kitsch (both the food and the surrounds), you’ll probably like it.
