Amazing restaurant.  Amazing food.  The chef is a hidden gem.  The finesse and the ability to come with surprising and successful innovative combinations were a true pleasure.  The service was amazing too very personal and kind we were very well treated.  The wine choice was spot on and we enjoyed the twist away from tradition was great.  All in all best since a while and we have been around!  Amazing 360 degrees experience up for repeat.Maybe dim the light and music a bit and a star is in reach!  Congratulations!

. Food is probably one of the better that I have had in Naples. Service was good. I went twice so that in itself says a lot though the second time my wife and I ate separate, someone messed up, eh it happens. Above all the place is clean

Lovely restaurant with great food and nice ambience. The service was excellent. Our favorites were the black truffle pasta and beef cheese. Definitely worth a visit for the whole family.  X

Excellent traditional food, the waiter was good at helping us decide what to have and suggested a few dishes after asking us what kind of food we like.. Very reasonably priced as well.. Good little find😁

The food was excellent but the service was not. We had a child (10) with us, and the waitress was uninterested in trying to help us find a combination that worked for her.

We were recommended this restaurant by Ivan at Plebiscito Boutique rooms. What a great place to eat away from the crowds and taste some real Neapolitan food. A standout was the stuffed pumpkin flower - I had to order a second!  Grazie!!

This restaurant although catering to mainly tourists gives good value and food in the area. There was a small queue waiting for a table. I had a seafood gnocchi and a mixed grilled fish with parmigiana melanzane. This was all good and the wine was good too. The prices are half what I paid fur similar but maybe lower quality in Positano last week.

Outstanding food, outstanding service. Quite expensive but you get what you pay for,7 course menu turned out to be at least 8 courses.

Really creative cooking. Very clever combinations of flavours and tastes, all of which worked. Excellent, enthusiastic staff who knew the dishes and explained them well. As only one of us was drinking we took their suggestions of wines by the glass and the choices were excellent and well explained. This is a first class restaurant with seriously good food. The surroundings may seem a bit austere and perhaps too well lit for a romantic evening, but it is a comfortable restaurant with superb food and excellent service.

I&rsquo;ve eaten at many Michelin starred restaurants and many working hard to obtain their first star. The experience is often better at those on the cusp of earning their first star. And Essencia prices the point! Every dish was creative in its conception, well executed and beautifully presented. Above all each dish was delicious. Our server was attentive but not overbearing and extremely knowledgeable about local wines to pair with each dish we ordered. There were a couple of balance issues - for example, the pasta with sea urchin and beef fat was - as expected - joyously rich and luscious but could have benefited from an acidic counterpoint. Also the fish of the day had a beautifully crisp skin that needed a bit more salt and the dryness of the fish needed a stronger flavored sauce. But those are mere quibbles about an otherwise outstanding meal! Give these guys their star!

Highly recommended to visit. We rate the parsley salad with mustard dressing as a side dish to roast pork as a top gourmet discovery!
