Essence Bar and Grill is a hidden gem in Brooklyn! 🌟 The atmosphere is casual yet trendy, perfect for gathering with friends or family. I had the Essence wings, and they truly live up to the hype - crispy, juicy, and packed with flavor. The bartender crafted an excellent whiskey sour, complete with a cherry and orange slice for that extra touch.
While our visit had a couple of minor hiccups with service and drink consistency, Marilyn and her staff went above and beyond to make our family celebration memorable. The outdoor seating adds to the charm, and I can't wait to visit again! 🍗🥂
