Carlson's Landing - Essex

Nice staff, good food and great prix fixe on Christmas Eve.

Excellent place for a company function or a nice business lunch or dinner. Good food and good service.

Our bartender was excellent, fun and engaging. We sat at bar because our table had stools with no backs very uncomfortable. Food was TERRIBLE!! I ate and paid but told bartender how we felt. Will NEVER go back

Will not return. Wrote the restaurant today to tell them about my experience. Ordered gnocchi and my husband fish and chips. Fries were burnt and soggy. Gnocchi was terrible, mushy gritty potato balls with unappealing sauce. Expensive meal for such poor quality.

Food was excellent (deviled eggs, cheese plate, swordfish, cod, short ribs). Service was good but not excellent (eg no water refills, waitress didn’t clear app plates and utensils when meal came). Waitress had nice demeanor though. Restaurant smaller than I expected but very nicely appointed. Would go back.
