I’ve gone here 4 times since it opened. The 30 minute wait means this will be my last. And, to the manager who told me that this happens all the time in NYC, no it doesn’t. A restaurant that thrives on dinner reservations for guests with important business companions does not make them wait 30 minutes. It at leasts would offer them the option of starting at the bar and continuing in the main dining room. That’s the way it’s done in NYC, London and even New Delhi. (Esh is in an obscure part of Fairfield).
The actual wait staff in the dining room is exceptional, each and every time. The food delivery time in the dining room (not the bar) is consistently timely if not fast. And, the food can be pretty good, which obviously is the draw. Sea Bass is spicy and flavorful. The lamb is tender and inviting. The shwarma is mediocre and overdone. The hummus is fine, but, it’s not Tel Aviv, sorry. And, the flatbread, well, it’s flatbread, not pita, and it’s not much better than freezer bread that you put on your grill.
Feel free to go once and try it out. But, expect to be treated poorly at the entrance desk despite the NYC prices.
The food is beyond amazing
We cannot wait to go back
The staff is super nice as well
