Essencha has really gone down hill unfortunately... It used to be my favorite place to grab some tea and food to go but recently the staff has been minimal and the service just isn't as good anymore. Everything looks and feels different too. I hate to say negative things about this cozy little tea house because I've been coming here for years! Sad to see where it's at these days. Also, not to mention the prices have gone up. It feels like a $ 1-2 increase on anything you order. I used to pay around $ 3-4 on a cup for a matcha latte and now it's $5! Not sure if I'll continue to be a regular customer. I'm just keeping it real!

Great food but dear god the service is slow and the wait staff are very disorganized. I think the fastest that I have ever been through a sit down meal here is over an hour and a half. Carryout isn't much better, the staff has no sense of prioritization. I came in to place a to-go order at the counter and literally waited over 5 minutes while the cashier finished filling an ice bucket before she turned around to greet me. She then walked off in the middle of taking my order, literally leaving me standing there with my card out in my hand waiting to pay. This would absolutely be 5 stars if they could just get their service up to par, it's just pretty clear no one on staff has worked in food service before.

We were looking for some great vegan places in Cincinnati area and this place appeared among the top places in many lists. It's located on I-71 and is a good quiet place with a variety of seating options. The food wasn't that great but good enough. Food: They have a very crisp food menu with salads, sandwiches, soups, crepes, teas, scones and few desserts. However, the tea menu is quite extensive with a huge variety of teas available. We started off with a Masala Chai and Hibiscus tea., followed by a Garden Veggie Sandwich, Matcha Goddess salad, a Blueberry cupcake and a Coconut Mochi. The teas were good - especially the Masala Chai had a good flavor. Hibiscus was a little mild. Garden Veggie Sandwich was really great. The vegan miso cashew sauce was perfectly harmonizing with the veggies. The bread was perfectly crispy - not so hard that it crumbles and not so soft to be soggy or gooey. The fruit bowl side was good and complemented the veggies. I didn't love Matcha Goddess salad so much though - found it a little heavy on the greens. The nuts gave a good crunch and the raisins were a good addition to improve the flavors. The Blueberry cupcake was good, although the icing was too sweet - I could feel the sugar. However, Coconut Mochi didn't impress so much. The flavors were fine but it was a little too rubbery and didn't really had a good bite. Ambiance: The restaurant has a very good ambiance. Multiple seating options - inside and outside. Outside - they have an umbrella and relaxing chairs located on one side and a pair of chairs and a table on the other. Inside, they have a couple of tables and on one side there is an area for large group seating as well with few cushions. The overall atmosphere is very peaceful. Service: The service is a little slow. However, the staff is quite friendly and helpful in suggesting you the best to order depending upon your preferences and taste buds. The overall interaction was quite pleasant. Overall, a nice place to be - maybe at least once. However, our hunt for good vegan options in Cincinnati hasn't ended yet.
