Essenza
Essenza is housed within the Borghi dell'Eremo resort in a stunning setting surrounded by beautiful and tranquil natural landscapes. The spacious dining room, which is flooded with natural light thanks to the picture windows that look out at the Umbrian hills, provides the backdrop for a culinary experience that focuses on traditional cuisine. Our inspector particularly recommends the exquisite Borghi saffron tagliatelle served with a rabbit ragù (the rabbits are raised on the estate’s own farm).
TripAdvisor review sample · 4.6/5 · 80 reviews
With an average TripAdvisor rating of 4.6/5 based on 80 reviews, the restaurant is generally well-regarded. Positive feedback highlights attentive service, particularly from staff like Luca, a cozy atmosphere suitable for reading or socializing, and high-quality food and drinks. However, significant criticism centers on value. Several negative reviews cite disproportionate prices, hidden service charges, and poor portion sizes relative to cost. While most guests appreciate the ambiance and hospitality, others report feeling misled by pricing structures and unsatisfactory meal pacing. The consensus suggests a pleasant dining experience marred by concerns over transparency and affordability.
Suitable for diners seeking a comfortable atmosphere and attentive service, though price-sensitive visitors should evaluate value carefully.
