Food was great. Service was great. Atmosphere was cool. So what will I remember most about Beauty and Essex? That it was loud as hell!
If an F-16 was taking off from Seattle Seahawks stadium with Aerosmith playing over the loud speakers, it would have been quieter than Beauty and Essex. I sat in a booth with my wife and daughter. I was on one end, my wife on the other and daughter in the middle. My wife and I gave up trying to talk to each other and just used our daughter as go-between.
Another thing I noticed is that the guy holding the door open to the pawn shop that precedes the restaurant has yet to smile...ever!
Our food was great. The tuna tacos were our favorite. The service was nice and especially accommodating. And the layout, decor and vibe were all cool as could be.
And it's loud. Did I say that already!
