    The perfectly executed, melt-in-your-mouth Bronzino with a rich, was a culinary masterpiece, paired flawlessly with the recommended wine. The attentive service was impeccable, with our waiter anticipating our needs before we even had to ask. The ambiance was warm and inviting, with soft lighting and great music playing in the background creating a truly fine dining atmosphere. Every dish was a burst of flavor, showcasing fresh, seasonal ingredients prepared with incredible skill, making this a must-visit for any foodie.

    We had a large group and the restaurant was able to accommodate us when we needed to change the date and number of people. We were placed in their private dining room . Our server Vinny was great!

    We went early and it was a slow start to get any attention but after we did all went well. The food was fabulous. You do need to focus on in what order the food comes out. That will help with enjoying each dish without getting stuffed. Dessert was crazy good!

    The flatbread with hummus, baba gauche and especially the spicy Feta were worth going to Esh alone so fresh and delicious! My husband had the Lamb pot pie and it’s a signature dish that presents well and he thoroughly enjoyed. My son had the halibut and my other son had the rib eye schwarma. I had the Bronzino. The halibut presentation was just okay but he enjoyed the flavor. My other son isn’t a fan of Feta and he thought it may have had feta sprinkled on top. My Bronzino was crisp and delicious with grilled tomato and pepper. For desert they remembered my birthday which was a plus. All three had the rice pudding and I had the Kade cake which was delicious. The server was pleasant, attentive and knew the menu inside and out. Her suggestions were spot on and added to our overall dining experience. With drinks the bill was $470 plus tip which is in line with other area restaurants in Westport and Fairfield. . We plan to go back again.

    Extraordinary food, solid service, and stellar ambiance. $35 for lavash and dips is too expensive. However, if you’re like us and did exactly that, there were no regrets afterward.
