Continuing past the pawnshop, guests encounter a grand, circular staircase wrapped around a two-story custom chandelier, but only the adventurous will discover all that Beauty & Essex has to offer. With four distinct dining rooms (one private), two bars, a lounge, and a women’s bathroom complete with a salon including a luxurious sofa, and antique perfume bottles.

    You must try this restaurant. The team that works here is amazing. All of them. The host and hostess were so sweet and polite. We felt welcomed to be there while we waited about a minute to get our table. The lounge and bar are beautiful. Our server was the sweetest. I accidently tossed the receipt so I don't have her name. Our bussboy/server assistant was great as well. The food runner was so polite and informative about all of our dishes. Now lets talk about the amazing food, plating and dish selections. They could not have done a better job if they tried. We loved it all and the homemade pita bread was to die for. The most delicious hummus. The beat and pear salad, the house salad and the eggplant we just some delicious. The falafel just melted in your mouth. There were mouth watering meatballs as well. There were pickled vegetables and a yummy salad as well. It was well balanced. The small plates and bowls with the color selections were something off of a cooking show. You will be spoiled by it all. We skipped dessert, only because we were trying to be good. The pumpkin dessert and the chocolate candy bar cake was enjoyed by others around us. It looked so amazing. I did get the Lebanese coffee semi sweet and there take of an espresso martini that was made with tequila. Both were so delicious. Before leaving I made sure to tell the managers how wonderful everything was so they could let the team know. They were so appreciative and humble. I could tell they all love working there. If you want to have an amazing time, you must eat here. You will not be disappointed.

    Do yourself a favor and transport yourself to Mars for an evening. Delightfully weird and tremendously tasty, this innovative restaurant is a guaranteed good time. Paul D'avino and co are all stars as creating a welcoming atmosphere and unforgettable meal. From the cocktails to the pastas to the science behind melty cheese - top notch meal. No notes!
