★★★★★ 5.0 Jill McGillis · Feb 2026

Had dinner here tonight, it was our first time. We were looking for a quieter vibe and it was perfect as we had an early reservation. Our server Rachel’s service was 20/10. Extremely kind and attentive and didn’t make us feel rushed when we took time to decide what we wanted. We didn’t know the size of the pizza based on photos we’ve seen, so we ended up with a lot of leftovers as they are large pizzas😅. Again, Rachel saw that we had a lot of leftovers so right away when she noticed we were done, asked if we needed anything else, and had the pizza boxes to go without us even having to ask. We couldn’t decide if we wanted steak, but had heard rave reviews for the pizzas, so went with that. They also had a Valentines menu, but I appreciated that they had their full regular menu tonight t

We visited there for a reception after a funeral. The food was exceptional. Wholesome flavorful ingredients and beautiful presentation. You can taste the freshness and everything seemed home-made with care. Servers and meeting space were welcoming.

I spent a day in Cornwall with family and chose this restaurant to have a quick pizza meal. I found the pizza menu options to be VERY original and the ones we ordered were absolutely delicious (my group loved the Ranch pizza). The pizzas have very thin crusts and were cooked perfectly. The fact that they offer vegan pizzas with vegan cheese is a definite plus. I feel like it would be justified to shave a few dollars off the price of the lunch menu pizzas though. The service was fast and the server was friendly. The decor is no-frills, very basic.

"From start to finish, my experience at Esca was exceptional. Our server, Holly, was nothing short of amazing—balancing our table of six along with several others with ease, professionalism, and a warm demeanor. Her multitasking skills were truly impressive! Beyond the excellent service, I was equally impressed by the kitchen staff. Their calm, seamless teamwork was evident in the perfectly timed and beautifully prepared dishes that arrived at our table. The entire team at Esca operates like a well-oiled machine, creating an atmosphere of effortless excellence. Bravo to the staff—I'm a truly satisfied customer, and I’ll definitely be back!"

★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Eden Lewis · Feb 2026

Went with a couple girlfriends for lunch, two of us are celiac and specifically chose Esca because it has a good reputation and supposedly catered to gluten free diets well. While they did accommodate our request for a GF option with the spin dip (yay!), I was really disappointed when the salad I ordered came with a lot of very wilted and rotting lettuce. They readily replaced it with a pizza ($21) with a gluten free crust (+$6). The bill for 1/3 of a spin dip, 1 pizza, and 1 cider was $50. Worst part is, my friend and I had a reaction to the food, suggesting there was cross contact or gluten contamination somewhere on the line. Judging by the nastiness of my salad, I would say that the cooks on line were not at their best. Who would plate a salad like that? Really disappointed. None of us
