10:42 even the baby KNOWS it will GET YOU SOME 😂😂
The seafood gumbo is amazing. The staff is friendly and fun to be around. Love Essie's our spot when we visit New Jersey!
Thanks for saying “The staff IS friendly” and not “are”. It’s great to see there are still people who know proper English❤
Much Success and Happiness to the owners of this restaurant ❤❤❤ Saying hello from Chicago Illinois United States 🥇
I am a homebound handicapped senior living in Wisconsin. I am on 4 health related diets which leaves me with steamed vegs, salmon, other fish etc. All very bland and mostly boring. I have followed you for a couple of years now. I guess you could say I emotionally eat through your adventures. But this video really made me jealous. LOL! It looked so good. Thanks for your videos!
Talk to your chefs. If they are committed to their art, they will be happy to experiment on your behalf. Bon appetite.
I’m sorry to hear that. Have u thought about maybe adding some raw vegetables in your diet? If so I can email u some recipes that u may like?
@ Thank you but I no longer have teeth and choke on food with dentures. I really miss my raw vegetables, most fruit like apples, and nuts. They were a big part of my live until 9 years ago. I do manage to eat fairly healthy, but it is mostly steamed veg, fish and some chicken. I do eat some starches like potatoes and rice and pasta, but a limited amount.
@@donwise9459 oh now I’m sorry to hear that. Have u thought about juicing then? I changed the way that I eat and that was the best decision that I could’ve made for myself and my family. My body was acidic and in three days it went to alkaline. Diseases come from the things we put in our body, I just wished I was taught that over twenty years ago.
Glad to see you reviewing this place and enjoying the food. My friend told me of Essie's when she stumbled across them in their beginnings. Nice and cozy lo-key, beautiful staff, beautiful atmosphere, offers happy hour, etc....However, when i chose to visit the establishment which was in 2023 during happy hour that they offered, my food experience wasn't quite like yours in 2024. Haven't been back since. But after seeing your recent review, i will be giving checking them out again. Beautiful people, beautiful staff and beautiful lo-key atmosphere with music.
Owner needed to step away, so JL could do an honest review.
Definitely
Love the look of the restaurant, the reviews on Google are great and you seemed to enjoy the food, however I wished that you respectfully asked the owner to allow you to eat the meal alone. He was literally watching you eat through the entire review. No matter how good you say it was I know that you'll never call food "bad" or "mid" to the owner's face or say that it's overpriced, and therefore can't see the review as 100% honest. Mike, give reviewers space to do their thing.
Facts on top of facts. No debate here
Well if you’re going to review something or call your self a reviewer… why would you not be all the way real, why would you try to be a nice guy and make everyone happy… everything isn’t liked.
Charbroiled Oysters was my favorite thing to eat in New Orleans!! I’ll be in soon
I live in LA, not too many restaurants in other cities get it right, they definitely look like they got it! Nice job!
The seafood looks amazing,but the one for me is the gumbo, the wings.everyone works as a team to make sure that the business goes smoothly.
This lounge has a well thought out theme. It is a good place to dine and enjoy time with family and friends. 🎉
Wow. Okay. I'll have to try that spot. The food looks amazing!
Whoa, that food looks delicious.
That food looked amazing.

That food looks beautiful and delicious 😋 😍
Hey JL and family. I hope that you and the family had a wonderful one. This food looked 💣 Especially the lobster dish. Enjoy JL!! 🐞😋
Slamming JL😊😊😊😊
JL folding I know for a fact every single thing on that table is not a 10
Now this is one spot I'm overly glad you went to..... The owners are wonderful people, shout out to my sponsor peavey for doing the entire sound system up and down stairs. And I hope you tried the gator 🔥👍🏾
Essie's seems like such a chill spot !! And the food looks delicious !! I'm in the area in 2 weeks, hopefully i can squeeze in a visit for myself. Great review !! ❤
I came here for the big guns. That huge lobster tail, collosal shrimp, rice, & gumbo ! 🔥 That's how i roll 😊
Looks amazing. South jersey boul here, I’ll be trying it out, nothing really like that around, except maybe Becks in reading terminal
My name is Jessie and I had a friend her name was Essie 😂
🔥🔥🔥
Does it come out like this every order?
I need an egg roll
C M D much love
Opinions compromised by him sitting there
Cafe Nola. Back in the day
✌️👌
Must be good cuz I never heard JL say "damn" so many times in one video 😂
That food looks really good JL but I'm highly allergic to shellfish hope they have other things there that I can eat I'm going to check it out the next time I go to Jersey
I'll have to remember to stop by here next time I'm in town for a piercing/tattoo at Poseidon's .
Looks excellent but the owner should never sit there and watch you eat & critique. Give you your space & privacy.
Hey bro....random question, but did you ever shoot a video for OT?
Looks and sounds good... how far from Newark???
First 🥇
You can always count on getting some type of eggroll at a black owned restaurant
Went there months ago
Service sucked
And they was out of main dishes
I can tell everything is not a 10 but good. U got to be honest even if they are in your face
Another great review. Except for the owner being over your shoulder the whole time. You review places for us, not the owner. If he’s secure in the quality of his food and establishment, he’d let you do what you do and tend to more important things. Geez!!
If that place is the bomb, why didn’t you bring your wife to dazzle her?
Bro dont do reviews infront of the owner shit is just fake
Yes their happy hour is magnificent… $5 long islands and margaritas with app specials Tues-Fri, 5-7pm. I love the creole crawfish bread, Collasal shrimp, garlic parm wings and their Stuffed shrimp dinner meal.
🔥🔥🔥
