| - Have been to Essex a few times; lunch, early dinner, two more dinners. Complaints from those visits include lousy seating (chair height wrong for tables, weak service, inept hostesses). Food isn't fantastic but pretty good.
Last evening, 5pm, I arrived with an out of town friend traveling on biz. Just bad all around; service non-existent (had to get our drinks at the bar), bland bordering on rude staff, plenty of 'workers' standing around hostess stand socializing, incomplete menu given us.
Conclusion: You, Essex, must only be reliant on out of towners/one time only visitors because no one who cares about good service will revisit you. Me? I made the mistake three times to let my guests choose the spot. Not anymore!! No Essex!
