This was nature on a plate: Dates, Marcona Almonds, Shaved Parmesan, frisée Salad in a Spanish Sherry Vinaigrette. The ingredients were all very fresh and I loved the way the salad was crowned with a stunning orange flower which just served to enhance the beauty of this luscious mélange of goodness. more

My wife and I chose Essensia for our Wedding Anniversary dinner and could not have been more pleased with the experience. The relaxed yet elegant atmosphere, exceptional service and the meal itself were all exactly what we were looking for. We dined alfresco on the restaurant's veranda . For main courses we enjoyed the Lobster Mushroom Risotto and the Florida Yellow Tail Snapper with baby bok choy and Thai rice in a red curry sauce. We liked the organic and biodynamic wine selections and took advantage of one of the menu's mini wine tasting offerings -- 3 organic wines -- a Reisling, Pinot Gris and Savignon Blanc. Portions were just right and meant we had room to share a light and flaky napoleon creation for desert. Valet parking is free for guests of the restaurant which is an additional reason for locals and visitors to Miami to choose this convenient and outstanding alternative to other locations on Miami Beach. more

Everything organic and fresh, a new menu with seafood and turf favorites. Several tasty salads, and the best kids menu in fine dinning. Indoor and ocean-front patio dinning. Dress is nice casual and up. more
