Esh Modern Mediterranean Fairfield Reviews from The Last Year
Service was excellent and the food was even better.
We will be back again and again and again...to work our way through the menu. Freshly made pitas hot out of the wood burning oven! It was that good and we live an hour or so away.
Food is always great, as is the atmosphere.
However, parking is awful. And Esh supposedly will validate parking, But when we went to use the validated ticket, it wouldn't work. Looked like we weren't the only ones with the issue.

It is one of the best restaurants that I have tried in a while. Tasty and the service was great. Definitely coming back.
I have mixed feelings about what I want to say about this
I have mixed feelings about what I want to say about this experience at Esh. We've eaten at Esh several times and have always had a great meal and a good time. However, during this visit, something happened that started the evening off on a very sour note! I made, and reconfirmed, our reservation for a party of four. We were hosting another couple who had never been to Esh before. Our guests arrived 5 minutes before we did and they were told that they would not be seated until the entire party had arrived, in spite of the fact that we had a valid reservation for a party of 4 people. I have run into this "policy" at some very busy, trendy restaurants in Manhattan. It's somewhat annoying, but understandable in that situation. However, this is Fairfield, CT...NOT NYC! Maybe Esh thinks that they are too cool, too popular, too hip and too wonderful to be accommodating and welcoming to their customers. But, the bottom line is that this policy is ridiculous and represents a snooty, egotistical attitude toward their customers, rather than a warm and welcoming treatment of their guests. I arrived at Esh about 5 minutes after our guests. All 4 of us were, then, seated at our table. I noticed that there were numerous empty tables in the restaurant! I don't understand why they made our guests stand around and wait for me to arrive! That seems to be very unwelcoming and inhospitable. They could easily have seated our guests at one of the many empty tables and asked if they wanted a drink while waiting for me to arrive. Esh would be better off to lose some of their egotistical attitude, chill out, and treat their customers with more welcoming behavior. Granted, the space is nice, the food is good, but eating out is more than just food and decor....it ought to be an overall enjoyable experience. The way Esh treated our guests made it much less so! I urge Esh to reevaluate their "policy" and exhibit a more friendly attitude toward their customers! (and, btw, turn down the volume of the music a bit, so that folks can have a conversation over dinner without having to shout at one another!)
This place has a lot of potential but they are too greedy
This place has a lot of potential but they are too greedy with the price. If you order the dips like hummus, etc. they only give you this small flat bread that is definitely way too small to finish the dips with. So if you order another piece of bread, they charge you $9 for a piece of bread. I literally spent over $200 on dinner for two people and they are charging $9 for a piece of bread. I would be going back here 4-6 times per year but now I'll never go back. I feel too ripped off.
This was a phenomenal experience - the bread with the dips
This was a phenomenal experience - the bread with the dips is to die for. The burger, lamb dish, and the fish dishes we tried were great as were the desserts. Can't say enough good things about this place.
Absolutely delicious.
Amazing decor. Waist staff is on point! Get the steak skewer and the burger!!
Amazing food in Cool Fairfield Restaurant.
Fantastic sophisticated meal at Esh last night. Easily the best food in the town. Excellent service and friendly atmosphere. Interesting options abound. We had three messez for $25 which were outstanding and came with an amazing fresh cooked read. Followed it up with Felafel. Fried beautifully and served in a little brown container a la chinese food takeout. Incredibly tasty. My wife had the chicken which was inventive and I had Skirt steak wagu. Tender and large enough to take half home. For dessert—cheese cake and ice cream including a delicious lavender flavored scoop. My only complaint was that although the dining room is elegant and interesting the windows look out on parking lots and roads. It add curtains. Well done
Totally spectacular , food , service , ambiance !!!! Total

Outstanding food and service in a beautiful and calm
Outstanding food and service in a beautiful and calm environment. The appetizers were amazing. We especially enjoyed the dips.
We came here for a birthday dinner.
I was excited to try something new! The restaurant is gorgeous! The service was a bit slow but we were not in a rush so no big deal and it was also very busy so it's to be expected. Our server was kind, as were the helpers. The experience here was definitely unique, in a great way. We started off with the Meze dips. 5 for 35$ and served with flatbread and olives. They were all delicious! Definitely flavors I've never tasted before. This was the favorite part of my meal. For my entree, I ordered the North African style halibut - tomato sauce with paprika, garlic, red pepper, green chickpeas, homemade potato gnocchi & cilantro. In my opinion, the flavors were way too powerful. The fish was cooked perfectly, but I sadly couldn't finish it nor anything else on my plate. It was too much for me. It tasted like I was eating a bowl full of seasoning. I do enjoy different flavors, but it was not for me. This restaurant is very unique and I'm sure many people will enjoy it. It's definitely worth giving it a try.
Food, service, ambiance are all amazing.
We were a party of 4 and shared 2 dips and the octopus as apps. They were shared a fish and meat dish for our r tree. Finished the meal with Nonnas dessert. It's definitely pricey! But worth for a special treat.
Was worried it seemed a little too much of a scene for me,
Was worried it seemed a little too much of a scene for me, but hot damn the food is good! Lives up to the hype. Friendly staff - which is always nice, especially when it at a hot new restaurant where I have come to expect a bit of an ego - none here, just good food and service! Best shawarma I've had in the area. Expensive, but everything is these days.
We've eaten there three times and it's always been so
We've eaten there three times and it's always been so delicious. Great ambience and interesting menu. Only tidbit I could forget next time is Moroccan Cigars. Otherwise everything we ordered and ate was spectacular. Lovely servers. It's always jammed but tables are spaced for comfort. I'm so impressed. As a family, we have so much fun there. The complementary flatbread is the best Ice ever eaten anywhere, the spreads are delicious and I'm a tried and true Brooklynite and the Pastrami Pizza is just incredible. It's definitely a YES.
Checked all the boxes
The full package. Food’s amazing, especially the flatbread. Tried the feta one and it was the highlight of the night. Also tried the cauliflower, delicious mix of red & white sauces and perfectly cooked. The halibut with gnocchi was delicious too. Flavor heavy, but everything well orchestrated. And finally, the Grandma Cake was great too. I’m not big in sweets, but this one really got me. Great atmosphere - decoration, music selection and friendly staff.
Delish-esh!
We tried to get a reservation in December--the first available Friday or Saturday reservation was in February--Wow, popular place! Esh is tucked away in an apartment complex of I-95 in Fairfield--once you find it, there's lots of delicious inside. The dining room is chic, the staff is friendly and helpful, the menu has lots to offer. Be warned, the prices are above average for Fairfield--this was a splurge for our modest budget. Be sure to get one of the dips--accompanied by a flavorful bread (with pickled veggies and olives) this is a steal here for $9.00. For our small plates, we did the duck wings (the hit of the night), the octopus (very good) and the basket of falafel (good). We also ordered the Angus shawarma (very large portion and tasty) and the bone-in short rib (also very good). The three of us could barely finish any of the dishes and left with a nice take-out bag. Lots and lots of creativity and flavor in all of the dishes. Again note, this is on the pricey side. The least expensive glass of wine here is $18.00. The entrees are $40-$55 and most of the sharables are in the mid $20's. And be advised to make your reservation SEVERAL weeks early to be sure to get a spot.
Dinner
We stopped in for dinner and really enjoyed the experience and food. We did not have a reservation but since we got there early we sat at a communal table which was just fine. The restaurant was really nicely decorated with a large communal table where at least about 12 could sit at. In addition there had a beautiful bar area when one could also dine at. It was as very nice vibe. For our meal we decided to have several plates to share. We started with the burrata which was excellent, served with some cured meat slices and nuts. Really good! We also ordered the octopus and the Wagyu Bao buns. The buns were packed with flavor, I love them. Top top everything off we had an order of the Brussel sprouts. For dessert we had the date sponge cake. It was the perfect way to end the night.
Much better before the hype
This is my fourth time visiting, and I’ll start by saying that I love this restaurant and have recommended it heartily. Today’s comments are because, at last night’s visit, I felt that the experience had slipped, and I believe it’s because the place has become so popular, with long waiting lists and lots of buzz. Our starters were delicious, particularly the roasted cauliflower and spicy feta dip. But two of our three entrees were just embarrassing. I ordered the lamb tenderloin, which I’ve had before. At $45, the meat, which is supposed to be medium rare and tender, was overcooked and tough — and a meager portion to boot. My son’s chicken entree was so small that he finished the meat in four bites, and my husband gave him half of his own meal. I don’t mind paying up for a nice dinner, and I’ve enjoyed my experiences here in the past, so this commentary is intended as a wake-up call to the kitchen. As much as I enjoy the dazzling dining room and open kitchen theater, I’m coming here for the food, and, sadly, I won’t be rushing back. My advice: stick to the apps and avoid the entrées.
Be prepared to wait
What happens when you mix an overhyped restaurant with good, but not exceptional, food and arrogant gen z kids at the front who don’t seem bothered by the fact that you made a reservation which has not been honored for over 30 minutes? You have Esh. I’ve gone here 4 times since it opened. The 30 minute wait means this will be my last. And, to the manager who told me that this happens all the time in NYC, no it doesn’t. A restaurant that thrives on dinner reservations for guests with important business companions does not make them wait 30 minutes. It at leasts would offer them the option of starting at the bar and continuing in the main dining room. That’s the way it’s done in NYC, London and even New Delhi. (Esh is in Fairfield) The actual wait staff in the dining room is exceptional, each and every time. The food delivery time in the dining room (not the bar) is consistently timely if not fast. And, the food can be pretty good, which obviously is the draw. Sea Bass is spicy and flavorful. The lamb is tender and inviting. The shwarma is mediocre and overdone. The hummus is fine, but, it’s not Tel Aviv, sorry. And, the flatbread, well, it’s flatbread, not pita, and it’s not much better than freezer bread that you put on your grill. Feel free to go once and try it out. But, expect to be treated poorly at the entrance desk despite the NYC prices.
Definitely !
I will start with the main part of this review- definitely GO! I don’t give out 5 stars easily but ESH deserves it. What a great restaurant! The ambiance, food and the service are top notch. The design and ambiance is perfect. We ordered something from every part of the menu and overall they were all fabulous. The only dish that could use some help was the cauliflower head app which was mushy and sauce had bland tasteless flavor. Note- portions are quite substantial and great value . So be careful don’t over order like we did or a lot will be going home as leftovers . ESH just open recently and word is traveling fast so MAKE SURE to make a reservation way in advance (weeks!) because it is getting very hard to get a reservation . Parking is easy with a garage right next door and they will validate.

Great Service - amazing dinner!!
Read about the site in NYT and bought a reservation at Mother Wolf in LA 2 days later. Worked great and the food was amazing!!!
Worked perfectly!
Got the reservation (that I couldn't get anywhere else) and was able to entertain a group of friends at the infamous Bern's Steakhouse.
Got into Nobu Malibu
Wonderful! My parents are visiting and we have wanted to go to Nobu Malibu for years. I tried getting a reservation myself but it was next to impossible. So glad I was able to buy a reservation on appointment trader for a decent price!
Very easy
Was very hesitant going into this experience but am glad to say that it worked out very well ! will definitely use appointment trader in the future
Fabulous Lunch
I was veeeeeerry skeptical that this would work, particularly at a restaurant as hard to get into as Nobu Malibu, and it was perfect! We had lunch outside on the patio and it was fabulous!
Great reviewer team
Just wanted to take a second to shout out the reviewer team. Even though they probably review hundreds of listings and bids a day, they still take the time to leave great comments and respond relatively quickly. Thanks!
Incredible
I got a reservation to Don Angie, which I've been trying to book for weeks! I am very happy with this service.
Best platform out there!
Super simple, easy, and fast to secure reservations for hard-to-get restaurants and locations!
This app is life changing
This app has opened my world up to so many wonderful new experiences I would never have the chance to have without access to this awesome app! 10/10!
Worked perfectly
Was a little nervous at first but was pleased to see that the booking went through flawlessly.
Highly recommended.
Success on Short Notice
Was able to snag an indoor table at Don Angie through an absolutely seamless worry-free process.
Worked perfectly, thank you!
This is a crazy holiday season in NYC and I was very pleasantly surprised to see that AppointmentTrader works! Will be using again!
Worked flawlessly!
Worked so well! I was a bit nervous, but everything went very smoothly. purchased the reservation, and got into the restaurant seamlessly.
Love this app!
So glad I came across this app :)
Quick table in Miami
I didn’t have my hopes high as it was a party of 4. In 24 hours I had a carbone reservation available! I was very happy as my family really wanted to come here
Prime time, great meal
So easy and had a prime time which I can never seem to get on normal res apps. So worth it
Got impossible NYC res
instead of waiting weeks I got my 4 charles reservation instantly
Worked perfectly to get into Carbone. So delighted
perfect
Worked well, got me into a restaurant with no availability
I was skeptical, and I still don't really know how they managed to find this hard-to-find reservation, but it was a win-win from my point of view, and I'll use this service again.
Last minute reservation for Delilah Las Vegas
Got a last minute reservation, dinner for 2 at Delilah Las Vegas: super impressed! The process was simple, transaction seamless. We had an amazing time! Couldn’t be happier! 😍
It works!
Ok at this point I've attended a reservation purchased on AT by a friend and sold a reservation personally. Both worked pretty smoothly, nothing sketchy about it. A few areas for improvement including a way to more directly communicate between buyers and sellers, but the app always seems to be in development. AT customer support is really(!) responsive and helpful too if you have questions!
Money transfer
As a seller, I like the fact i have the ability now to transfer money out of my AT account and into a bank account. Makes getting the money much easier then the process before.
Love this app
Got to go to places otherwise unreachable
Easy Access
Very easy to get into one of the hardest restaurants to reserve in New York.
Whose name will my reservation be under when I arrive at the venue?
It can be under your name or a name you choose! Some reservation offers already include the AppointmentTrader Transfer Service which will transfer the reservation in to your name. If its not included you can add it on after buying the reservation for a small fee. One thing on that though: As many reservations become available at last minute, taking a reservation in someone else name is quick and great for privacy. Most reservations on AT are listed with a virtual phone number, so all you need to do is present the phone number at the hostess stand and you are good to go!
Payouts Blocked Because of Sell Through Rate
Does anyone know how AT plans to handle cases where a seller is quitting the platform but has a sell through rate <25%? The error message I got said to fill more bids or find other ways to increase the rate.
Is AT really going to block sellers from withdrawing their money? Especially revenue made before the sell through rate was introduced??
Tune into NBC News - Top Story Tonight 7:40p ET
Let’s go. Get more people placing bids!
I will give you 50% of ALL of my PROFITS if you teach me how to make profits?
LOL. Thank you The New Yorker.
Appointment
Transferring reservations is not supported in AT. Why not just use the name in the AT screenshot?
Buyers interested in Bern's Steakhouse: PLEASE READ
Same goes for 4 Charles and I Sodi
Prepaid Reservation Fee
Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.
Congrats on 3 mil
🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🧨🧨🧨 now on to 30 mill!
Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it?
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid?
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted.
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from?
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered?
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
