Passion, love and innovation fuel our vision. We value the foundation of French Technique with a modern approach to classic American Cuisine.

Experience Modern American cuisine that draws inspiration from the land, sea and deep heritage of the Connecticut River Valley, alongside a legion of international flavors. The Essex marks the transition between old New England charm and upscale elegance; a time that calls for refreshment and rejuvenation.
