ESSA provides a destination to escape the expected.

Just like the raw interiors in which we reside, our work is simple but considered.

Discover our produce-driven restaurant and bar in Brisbane’s James Street precinct, serving refined, wood-fired food with an extensive wine list in a relaxed, intimate setting.

The ethos in the kitchen embraces collaboration with local farmers, hunters and providores, promoting an environmentally conscious approach to the menu. Harvest-driven dishes provide the creative parameters for our ever-evolving dining experience.

ESSA is open for dinner Tuesday through Saturday from 5pm till late and Friday and Sunday lunch from 12pm.
