This is a very good place to visit on weekends , i recently came to this place with my brother and had a lot of enjoyment here.
Here we tried tandoori broccoli and cauliflower , lal mirch Chicken tikka and vegetable palak pasta.
my brother like tandoori broccoli and cauliflower the most as he had a great love for eating broccoli but for me Lal mirch chicken tikka was the best.
I like to recommend this outlet
As the name says Essence Fusion gets the fusion of items and makes even better dishes as with our experience.
STAFF IS HUMBLE.
MAKHNI pasta was so so yummy and saucy, and taste of Indian ingredients in the pasta was so delicious.
Loved it.
Must try also the mushroom stuffing, not very spicy, right medium spiced and good ENOUGH QUANTITY.
Like to visit again for the feel.
I was Hyderabad for some work and was near to this place , so i came here to try something different and delicious food stuff of this place.
Here i tried my favourite chicken and coriander shorba, pahadi paneer tikka and sultani Murg tangdi .
The aroma of the food stuff was really mouth watering and the food also was too yummy and was of good quality.
Enjoyed here a lot and heartly recommend this place , its too good.
Essence fusion.
This place is famous for its North Indian and mughlai food.
They serve best in quality food.
Their ambience was big.
Food was awesome in taste.
And the staff was friendly and polite.
Food I tried:--
Sultani murh tangdi.
Fish tikka.
Overall my experience was amazing from this place and you must visit and try food from here.
Well the outlet is closed now for some reason but they are going to open soon, I have visited this place one month back and the outlet is quite nice, the ambience is superb and very relaxing place, the staff were nice and gentle with us and the service is nice, cleanliness is very well maintained by the resto.
The dish we order-
1) mini vada pav- the starter was nice as it was made in Mumbai style and the taste was also nice, I will rate the dish 3/5, and it was serve with green chutney.
2) street style pav bhaji- the main course is one of my all time favorite dish and the the taste was 👌 and the bhaji was cooked well all the veggies was mixed nicely and it was loaded with butter and was serve with onion.
Visited this place last month. I ordered dal ka shorba as soup with chilly bajji and fish tikka as my starter . I also ordered aam panna as my mocktail.
Soup and mocktail was mouth freshing. Fish was freshly cooked. It was so good in taste. And bajji was yummy too.
Staff was well trained. They were humble too. Price charged were reasonable. And ambience was lovely too. Overall i had a great day.
We visites this place a few days before and ordered mini vada pav and pahadi paneer tikka.Both the items were served on time.The presentation of the dishes were very good.The food was very refreshing and lovely to have.The dishes were served warm and fresh.The paneer was very soft and vada pav was very soft.The ambience of the place was very appealing.The taste was also good.The staff was very helpful and good in service.Overall satisfactory remarks highly recommended place.
1. Ambience was lively, a good fusion of Class and modern amenities.
2. Food was absolutely yum. Panner Lasagne, one of the recommended dish, Quantity was fulfilling for two members.
3. A little expensive, but once a while good for a gourmet dinner.
4. Value for money if you are a Zomato Gold user. 1+1 on food.
5. Services is a little delayed but they offer munchies like masala papad to reduce your hunger.
6. Preferred time 7:30 PM to 8:00 PM for a good crowd free dining experience.
Over all a great experience.
This is a great place to try fusion food, offers good service and has a beautiful decor. The Kashmiri pulao, chicken starters and Gulab jamun cheesecake with Mango sorbet were standout dishes. The Mango sorbet is one of the best sorbets I have tasted till now. Apart from the price, which was a bit on the higher side, it was a great meal and a must try place for all fusion food lovers.
Superb food . Vegetable biryani had been the best which I would have ever had in Hyd.Superb decor and it had been great experience being here.The staff was very courteous and would definitely recommend friends to visit once.
Fabulous experience! It’s a special day for me n hubby so we wanted to go to a place where we could relax and found the right place. Ambience was fabulous with bright interiors, comfortable seating and subtle music which was the most impressive part. We are vegetarians and were looking for some simple food and all of the dishes we ordered were delicious. Beetroot Galauti, Malai broccoli, Lacha Paratha, butter naam, Aloo Dum and Jeera Cola. Felt the starters quantity could be better otherwise everything is a super hit.
Very good food. And beautiful presentation.loved the ambience and the interiors..pls visist if you around jubliee hills..over all a perfct place to vsiist for some special occasions to make it memorable.
A nice place for Indian Food.The presentation and ambience is sophisticated with nice upholstery sofas and mirror work walls and ceilings.We tried their full course non veg meal . Starters , Kashmiri pulao and Dal makhani were superb . We changed the fish dishes with veg options ,and the staff obliged . However the paneer butter masala was very bad.The dessert could be improved a bit.Mango souffle could be made softer and creamier. Overall a nice family dine in place.The service could be improved.
Went on a weekend...beautiful ambience.. a good place for family and also for couple
Food is good..extra points for the ambience
But slightly disappointed with the service as they take time to serve the orders...
Apart from that good place to have a meal with family
Service , ambience,courtesy, food and so on ... everything is really very very great. Loved every dish. Enjoyed the dining. Had a pleasure in dining at such pleasant environment. Been there two times and yet feel like going again. 😃
Satisfied with the food here. This place has good ambience. The service is a little slow here
We thought it was a high standard restro in a not so visible place, we were right. You will not be able to locate this place at first glance.
Place was lovely, perfect for any kind of occasion, whether a family gathering, a date or just a casual dining. We wanted the food to enthrill our tastebuds and chef just did that with excellent taste which filled our soul.
I wish you introduce more options for vegetarians for a comeback.

Amazing fusion of Indian food.

The drinks were quite good as well. Strawberry dilkhush had a very innovative presentation. Overall a gastronomical delight. Would love to come back again.

Excellent fine dining ambience, with plush interiors and chandeliers. Good service and a menu that is different and welcoming. We opted for the fixed thali alike Chef's experience menu, and it was good blend of taste and range. Gulabjamoon Cheesecake stands out. Also Dal Makhani, Beetroot Galouti, Sultani Murgh Tangdi and Kashmiri pulao were equally good.
A new hidden place in Hyderabad serving the tasty Indian menu. The place has got a standard restaurant ambiance and is for small group of diners. Fusion of gulab jamun and cheese cake is a must try indo-continental desert.
Essence fusion could easily be the best fine dining restaurant in Jubilee Hills.
The ambience, service, food presentation and taste, everything is top notch.
We ordered Jangalee mushroom kebab for starters and Veg kofta, dal makhani for main course. All the three dishes were finger-licking good. The food is so flavourful.
The decor and lighting gives a royal feeling. The service is good.
Food: 5/5
Ambience: 5/5
Service: 5/5
Value for money: 5/5
This place have a grand and royal type of decor. It's not a very big sitting area, but didn't find it too crowded. So for ambience I'll rate 4 stars.
Food was good, and a little bit on the higher price range. 3 stars.
Staff were good. 3.5 stars.
One of the best dining experience..loved the food.. courteous staff..very hygiene food as well as place...superb ambience..would like to comeback once more and experience the dining experience
This place's rating struck my eye so decided to visit here and thankfully they lived up to the expectation. Ambience is 🔥 glass work all around and sophisticated seating was eye catchy. Coming to food, we tried non veg platter which was pretty good. Won't say unique but taste was good. In mocktails, we ordered aam panna and rose chai and to our surprise aam panna's taste was very different as it was too tangy and it was only thing that we didn't like. The staff was courteous enough to change it with a sweeter one so it was fine. Talking about mains, we ordered chicken and mutton biryani and this was again very unique and very tasty too ❤ Usually, I don't prefer biryani in Hyderabad as I don't like the flavour but this was quite good and so it's my stop now for biryani craving. Gulab jamun cheesecake in desserts was superb too. Overall, I feel they have tried to give a unique experience to the customers and its actually a good one so kudos guys 🤘
Been to this place recently through an invite .But my review will be totally unbiased. Essence Fusion ,Its one of the best fine dines in jublee hills . Right from the entrance you get that luxurious feel .Hats off to their detailing to each and every thing in the restaurant.
Coming to their service , it was really good .The stuff was hospitable and gave good suggestions .
Coming to the Food , just mind blowing .And their presentation is top notch .Tried a variety of dishes. All of them were good .But I would recommend the following :
1.tandoori Broccoli and Cauliflower
2.chandni Malai Tikka
3.shikampuri Kaleb
4.butter chicken
5.basil chicken tikka
And in Moctails tried their chilli guava, strawberry dilkush, jeera cola, Berry cooler . They were all good .
Comming to Desserts Tried their Gulab jamun cheese cake and carrot halwa cake .Both were really good and tasty
Overall A good place for friends and family .Pricing is a bit heavy on your pocket but its all worth it .
Was scouting for a restaurant with nice ambience for wedding anniversary dinner and zeroed in on this place after reading good reviews about the place both for food and ambience.
Booked a table on phone and the process was smooth.
It is located right above Aura cafe and we came to know that the management is same for both the Aura and essence fusion.
Essence fusion is a small place,may be 10 tables which could seat about 50 people in one go.
The ambience is very decent,well lit with some exemplary chandeliers and decorative glass pieces placed randomly over the place to give that elegant look.very decent setting for a good family outing.
Settled down to order dum ka jhinga and chicken Malai Tikka for starters and mutton biryani for main course.
Both starters were out standing and the presentation only increases the appetite.
Chicken Malai Tikka was just malaaaaaiii😋.smoothly textured,with a rich saffron aroma.
Prawns too was nicely cooked and spiced to perfection.
Biryani too was very rich in flavour.again not too spicy,not frought with over dose of masala and not perfectly oiled or should I say gheed.
The only short coming was the the portion is small.
The feed back was accepted by the captain and he acknowledged that other customers too had the same feed back.they have said that they are working on that aspect and within a month or so that is going to change for good.
We also ordered a cake as it was our wedding anniversary which was made in their kitchen.
It was fresh,creamy and fluffy.
Courteous staff.
Overall a nice outing.falls short of 5 Star rating simply because this one is less on vfm.
Place was okish......
Food was also okishhh ......
Lyk i felt very exicited to visit this place and try the platter.....
The cost was bit high for the tastee.....
And veg biryani was ok ok
Such a beautiful place...i went with my friends and the place is too good...about the food and presentation...oh man!! The food is delicious especially desserts...really loved it...worth it. I must say we enjoyed alott.
We visited the place on a Sunday afternoon and were quite impressed with elegant decor of the place. We started with the Chicken shorba and non veg platter. The shorba tasted bit bland but the ingredients were fresh in taste. The starters were good in taste and quite juicy and soft. In main course we ordered dal makhani, mutton rogan josh and chicken makhani pasta. The rogan josh was cooked and tasted very well, the pasta he an Indian twist to it and tasted different from the usual pasta. The best was the dal makhani very creamy and cooked perfectly. Overall it was a good experience, the presentation of all dishes lovely. The quantity for the price can be increased a bit.
Essence fusion has been trending recently for all the good reasons. Was here a couple of weeks ago to see what the fuss was about.The ambiance and its shine will get you right from the elevator. Attention to details is to the peak when it comes to ambiance. They also have a private dining room.
Coming to food, though the pricing is on higher side you'll start to feel its worth when you see the efforts behind presentation of each dish. When it comes to taste almost all the dishes which we tasted were on point.
My favorites from starters are the tandoori broccoli, Chandni malai Tikka and sultani murg tangdi. Beetroot galouti kebab was unique and I've never had it anywhere else.
From mains Rogan josht and basil chicken tikka are must try. When it comes to their biryani it's quite different neither Hyderabadi nor lucknowi but somewhere in between. Desserts could have been improved specially the gulab jamun cheesecake for which i was very much excited but turned out to just okay.
Overall we had an awesome experience and would definitely recommend it if you are someone who pays not just for taste but also for looks.

A small but elegant place for fine dining. I will recommend this place for the ambience but maybe not for food as much, because the portion size is tiny for the price we pay. We had ordered one berry blast, one Aam panna, mini vada pai, one prawn starter, mirchi naki, kashmiri pulao, aloo dum and essence paneer butter masala, chicken butter masala and naan.
The presentation is mind blowing. 10 on 10 for that.
The berry blast was refreshing and the Aam panna was sour. Someone who is really fond of sour drink will like not others, but it was amazing.
Mini vada pao was good and so were the prawns. The korchi bajji was appetising and the shimla mirch was coated with mashed potato and then batter fried. It really added to the Taste.
In the main course, the paneer and chicken butter masala was not like the usual ones but tasted well.
Kashmiri pulao - made with basmati rice and garnished with generous amount of almond, pista and fried onions. I would recommend this dish.
Aloo dum - the gravy was thick and creamy with baby potatoes. Only a few of those though but was really delicious.
For desserts we ordered one Gulab jamun cheese cake and one strawberry Rabri kheer.
The cheese cake was presented with mango soufflé and was good. The kheer was a little under cooked as the rice were not as soft and didn’t melt in mouth. The kheer was server with a mixed berry soufflé.
Taste : 3.5
Ambience : 4.5
Service : 5
Presentation: 5
The rating is entirely for the chef. The amount of detail going into each dish is so amazing. One can easily figure out the amount of thought that has gone into plating each of the dishes here. Everything on the plate is there for a reason.
Been with colleagues to taste the set menu (Gold Doesn't apply) so don't go with an expectation.
The set menu was good and quantity and quality of the food is really good. Especially the staff are very helpful in making us understand the dish. We didn't knew it's right about Aura.
Valet - 5/5
Food - 5/5
Quantity 4/5
Menu - 5/5
This is a high end restaurant. Prices are a bit high but worth the money. Food was good. Indian food with great taste. We ordered malai kofta and chiken dishes which were awesome
Been to Essence Fusion the past weekend and I cannot hold my excitement to write down how good the place is. The experience was totally blissful with their wide spread.
The place is very easy to locate and the nearest landmark would be Zero40 Brewing. The moment you enter the place your eyes find this truly soothing ambience. Must say they’ve got one of the best auras in town. Comfortable and elegant seating, pleasant lighting all over and you cannot take your eyes off those beautiful ceiling.
Coming to the Hospitality & Service, the waiters & other staff is very polite and gentle. They escort you right from the moment you enter the place until your happy meal.
Coming to food & presentation it is the best. Right from the appetizers to desserts everything tastes top notch & presentation is just another level. If I had to pick the best of presentations I’ll pick the SOUP. You’ll just love it.

Chicken Coriander Shorba

Amazing place..
My gang of 6 people selected this place for lunch . Ambiance is royal and food is finger licking good.
We started with soup and starters .
Tomato soup ,chicken soup and Dal ka shorba with smosa , soup options are limited but what they have they prepared their best.
Dal ka shorba tasted decent at first but if u are really good in food tasting u'll really like the deep taste of every spice they used.
I personally liked it..
Starters we ordered veg and non veg platter . Quantity was bit less but taste is amazing.
Main course :
Ordered chilly chicken Tikka perfect gravy taste and chicken marination . Tender chicken from inside and little crisp outer layer ,what else could I ask for ..
In veg ,we had Dal makhani , yellow Dal and jeera rice. I have tasted Dal makhani in many places and
Its always been disappointing, but if u are visiting this place do try Dal makhni. It tastes perfect.
This place have everything to the perfection but they can slightly improve in quantity
Ambiance: 4.5/5
Food :5/5
Quantity :4/5
Value for money:4.5/5
A place which is an example of royalty.
Ambience:-Classy wallpapers, curtains and indoor seating arrangement more likely to show its elegance and exquisite. Place can accommodate easily 30 members at once.
Coming to the Food !!
•Mutton Lamb Chops:-Served 4 chops well marinated slightly burnt but the taste was mesmerizing.
•Essence Non Veg Platter:-Comes with a variety of Kebabs Chicken Mutton & Fish, with four different sauces to savor the taste.
•Street Style Pav Bhaji:-Tasted really good. It could’ve been better if they would have avoided corn in Bhaji.
•Curry Crushed Basa:-Well Cooked and tasted.
•Paneer Lasagna:-As a hardcore non veg, I was skeptical by taking the first bite. Believe me, it blew my mind. The cheese sauces as perfect assembled well. Clearly one of the perfect dish here.
•Chicken Samosa:-Good one. Could’ve been better if the marination was done right. And used shredded chicken instead of mince chicken.
•Tandoori Chicken:-Priced a bit high as compared to the quantity given. Nevertheless it tasted Good.
Main course served here was good.
From Butter Chicken to Mutton Rogan Josh and bread basket. Everything was just perfect.
Desserts
•Gulab Jamun Cheesecake:-This was truly an epic combination which I really loved it. Tasted too good.
•Carrot Halwa:-Good one. Could’ve been better.
Overall the place looks really good with decent ambience,
Place is highly recommended for their Lasagna and Non Veg Platter.
Ambience:-5/5
Food:-4/5

Talking about food at essence fusion over all they have really good dishes their fusion concept have worked out in almost in every dishes still remember to talk with the servers and choose the right dish for you. And every dish won’t fail to surprise you!! With fusion. I tried many of their dishes so I can boldly tell you all their starters were good. Their lamb chops were really good tender well marinated with masala was my fav there and their rose 🥀 chai I loved it, I loved their tandoori chicken and basil tikka too.
When you go there try them for sure. Their desserts were decent too I liked their concept of fusion still they have to work in the taste.
They have a really classy smoking room too.
If you ask me who can I visit this place with you can visit this place with your family you can take your girlfriend for a date or for a casual dinner with your friends too this place is perfect for everything.
•The best part is they even have Zomato gold so you can get a complimentary dish comparing the part that they have Zomato gold the pricing is perfect. So I’ll give a 5/5
•Taste 3.5/5 ( they need to work on it)
•Service 5/5

Essence fusion as the name suggests it's a fine dining experience with a fusion of Indian dishes with other dishes.
First of all the ambience of this place is something pretty amazing making it a perfect place for dinner date . You can have a candle light dinner arrangement making it an unforgettable experience.
Let's move to the food.
First they served us a complimentary papad with chat masala.moving to the starters we had
Paneer Tikka Skewers: It's Marinated paneer and char-grilled vegetables with tikka spices served on bed of spicy beetroot yoghurt and mint chutney and the taste was decent.
Shikampuri kebabs: It's Minced mix vegetable patty smoked with fennel, seasoned with Indian spices served with mix fruit chutney. I'm not a fan of veg kebabs but these were decent enough to tell that I loved it.
Chicken samosa: it's Minced Chicken stuffed in ajwain flavoured dough, served with seasonal fruit chutney. I don't know why this didn't impress me. I found it to be a bit bland.
Essence Lamb Chops: Royal black cumin seeds flavoured Indian Lamb chops marinated in Indian spices, cooked in a tandoor, served with creamy pickled onion. Taste it hot to experience the real essence of these.
Essence Non veg platter: Lal murgh tikka, mutton sheekh kebabs, thai Red curry fish tikka & honey and paparika jhinga served with homemade sauces and chutneys.. this is something you can order if you wanna try more starters in less quantity.
Essence Veg platter: it has quiona kebabs, Junglee mushroom kebab, tandoori cauliflower & broccoli, paneer tikka skewers. Loved the mushroom kebab from this platter.
Chilli Bajji: I don't know why this fusion didn't work well may be because Cheddar and potato stuffing in chillies didn't work well. It's served with and rose sharbat shot.
Basil chicken Tikka : it's decent enough to say I loved it.
Mocktails were good. My pick are essence berry cooler and strawberry dilkush
Street style pav bhaji : the presentation of this could be improved a bit to match the ambience and fine dining experience but this pav is truly succulent and amazing. Bhaji on the other hand the sweet corn is giving it a different taste. It depends on your taste buds if you love this kind of fusion or not.
Paneer lasagne: it's decent but didn't impress me.
Tandoori chicken: Chicken leg cooked in tandoor, served with kashmiri pulao and makhani gravy.. This was delicious and kashmiri pulao is packed up with cashews Making it worth the try.
Essence curry crusted BASA: this one is truly flavourful. One of the best from main course.
Palak paneer, Essence Dal makhani,Cardamoms Rogan Josh,Mushroom kulcha, Essence butter Chicken,Roti basket,Mushroom & truffle mini kulcha The pairing of these are perfect and taste is decent. My personal favorite are definitely Rogan josh and Dal makhani.
Moving to the desserts tried all of them
Gulab jamun cheese cake
Fig kulfi
Kheer with strawberry rabri
Carrot halwa cake
Chocolate brownie
My favorite from here are definitely Gulabjamun cheese cake and carrot halwa cake. Taste of brownie was decent but texture was hard. Kheer and strawberry didn't work well. Fig kulfi was decent.
Overall a perfect fine dining experience though few improvements in dishes are required. Few dishes are on pricey side but not all of them. Few dishes are definitely worth what you pay.
It was preplanned dinner on friday night. Since it was raining heavily, i thought to step back this dinner plan. However i would not cancel the plan at last moment, i visited here for dinner by 8:30pm.
Located , right above the aura cafe! As i have already visited aura cafe, it was a easy hand to locate this restaurant.
Atmosphere sets the stage of restaurant. Dinning room was exquisite, walls were decorated with fancy mirror's. Restaurant seems to be expensive, with soft lighting and peaceful music, it has a pleasant soothing ambience. A big chandelier attract us at the centre of restaurant.
Fancy restaurant , however will be beautiful, with lavished decoration. Tables are decorated with flower, candle, linen table cloth nd a folded napkins.
Essence Fusion , name itself say , its a fusion on cuisine. Essence Fusion , flavour of Indian fusion in combination with some international cuisine.
Let me start with my experience here, this restaurant is particularly known for their fusion menu.
Food:-
°Chilli bajji:- this is most favourite snack for south Indian people. But here at Essence Fusion , bajji taste is completely different. Bajji is stuffed with cheese. This gives unique taste. Garnished with tamarind chutney.
°Street style pav bajji:-
Might not be Hyderabadi best snack, but one of favourite for Hyderabadi's.
Most of the place serves pav in rectangular space, but here they serve in cube in circular form. This doesnt give us complete Indian taste. But this is something more tasty than our normal pav bajji. ( Recommended)
°Paneer lasagne:-
Presentation of food will attract us. We vegetarian have got only this paneer option as an alternative of chicken, fish nd what not. On paneer , a layer of cheese was served. Personally i dont like paneer. So i wouldn't not judge on this.
Paneer tikka skewers:-
Paneer was soft enough, marinade well with all powered ingredients.
To skewer , a paneer cube , onion and capsicum as arranged. ( Recommended)
°Shikampuri kebab:-
This one is highly recommended for vegetarians to taste.
Picture of this item was captivated to mind.
Hyderabadi cuisine are one such, where international cuisines are combined with local touch.
°Veg Platter:-
Combination of different aromatic spice with raw smoked vegetables.
Served with four different items , few tandoori types. It includes Broccoli , stuufed mushroom, paneer.
Mocktails:- i personally liked rose chai .
I have liked the name of a mocktail called, strawberry dilkush 😆. This mocktail looks completely different. Taste like a berry fruit. Presentation , thats how it attracts us.
Other mocktails :-
Anar magic, chilli gauva, jeera cola.
Desserts:-
Fig kulfi
Gulab jamun cheese cake
Kheer with strawberry rabri
Carrot halwa
I have liked fig kulfi of all🤗
Some special notes:-
Cutlery:- seems to be, served in white and black coloured cutlery, Which looks so simple but weighs much.
Presentation:- every dish has got different presentation to attract us.
Price:- evryone thinks its expensive, i felt this is not that expensive, it is worth paying that cost for a particular dish. Presentation was flawless.
Quality:- when its about quality, even the culinary matters. They have maintained both.
Service:- staff were professionally trained in art of table service, about food and chiefs special menu.
Service was prompt, efficient.

A true Fine Dining experience. This restaurant has an amazing ambience and the service provided is good too. The food taste though delicious comes in less quantity compared to the price though.
Essense Fusion is taking fine dining to next level with its beautiful ambience and delicious food. The ambience gives a great first impression of the place and refreshes your mood as you enter the place. The décor has royal touch to it and well-designed ceiling illuminates the place beautifully.
The grandeur of its ambience sets very high expectations on food and they do well to live up to them. We started our dinner with Veg and Non-veg platters. The Non-veg platter included Lal Murgh Tikka, Mutton Sheekh Kebab, Thai Red curry Fish Tikka and Honey & Paprika Jhinga. Except Murgh Tikka, I loved every other item on the platter, especially the Fish Tikka and Jhinga (Prawns), both had great flavors. In the veg platter, I liked the Mushroom kebab and Quiona kebab.
Apart from that we had Essense Lamb Chops, Shikampuri Kebab, and Chicken Samosa. Lamb chops were brilliant, perfectly marinated and cooked, one of the best lamp chops I had in recent times, must try at this place ! While the Shikampuri too tasted great with it’s crispy texture, Chicken Samosa was disappointing, the filling inside the samosa was too bland for my liking.
They serve a wide variety of mocktails, of those I liked Stawberry Dilkush and Jeera Cola. They also have a super spicy one, Chilly Guava, try it at your own risk !
In the main course, we had Cardamom Rogan Josh, Essense Butter Chicken, Curry crusted Basa Fish, Paneer Lasagna and Pav bhaji. All the curries were good and went well with Kulchas and Assorted Rotis served along with them. The fusion attempt of Paneer Lasagna however didn’t go well, at least the one served to us; it could have done with more cheese.
While they did a great job with presentations for most of the dishes, the Pav Bhaji wasn’t presented as well as it tasted, it wasn’t appealing but tasted great, shared this with management in my feedback.
They again have very interesting fusion dishes on their dessert menu. Two desserts you should MUST have at this place, Gulab Jamun Cheese cake and Carrot halwa cake, both were lip-smacking good, they are served along with mango and lime sorbets respectively, mango sorbet was also delicious.
It's a 5/5 for ambience from me, but the food get only 4/5 especially for their pricing, any case its surely a must visit place for a great experience !
I was exciting to visit this place, after seeing the rating on Zomato, we had been Yester with my Family,
They had great ambience,we can't stop taking the picture in the restaurant, i think this restaurant designer has super talented.
We order tangdi kebab,chicken tikka, jhinga,tandoori brocoli, paneer tikka and kebad, food taste was amazing,brocoli and tangdi kebad is one of my favourite dish Because of ESSENCE,
Main course, we ordered Butter chicken, kadai chicken,prawns curry, mix veg curry,Paneer butter masala, Breads,, Chees kulcha,mushroom kulcha and garlic naan, my favourite dish is kadai chicken and chees kulcha, chicken was made wih mix vegetables and spicy, chees kulcha was yummy 😋. (please make it more option about main course)
Mocktails, Jeera Cola, berry cooler and desi mojito, jeera cola is the best one.
Service, if you compare with other restaurant or hotel, ESENCE staff beat even 5 star hotel, i am really surprise about service,i want to say, they are doing the best they can, we will visit again and again for trying all the dish,
Quite decent and cozy place.. i loved the ambience. Place is neat. Staff is friendly and quick service. Food quality is too good a d presentation is awesome.
I ordered tomato shorba, shikumbri kabab, Pahari paneer, pav bhabi and everything was so delicious.

Experience :-
One the best place i recently visited food service hygeine, ambience was so amazing, totally recommend place !!
Essence Fusion as the name suggest is the fusion of the international cuisine with an Indian touch to it. The place is located at Jubliee Hills.
We were about bunch of 5 people who went to the restuarant to enjoy the food. As soon as we entered the restuarant we were greeted by the staff so warmly and the helped us in securing a table at the place. The restuarant interior and design is so eye pleasing. The work really work hard on every detail. The main aim is to provide a luxurious experience to the customer and they excel in it. I would recommend you to go to this place for experience they offer , you wouldn't be dissapointed .
Now coming to the main part of the visit FOOD. We started off with mocktails we were 5 guys so thought of ordering five different mocktails so that we can try each of them.
Berry Cooler: This is one of the best mocktail in the menu , you gotta try this.
Strawberry Dilkush mocktail: The second best one , the puch of roohafza with strawberry pulp lovely and the presentation is OMG.
Guava Chilli: A bit harsh on the throat considering the nature of the drink coz it contains the essence and flavour of chilli , you can still give it a try for the innovation.
Desi Mocktail: Mango pulp with the fusion of Jalzeera is a good combo and the drink was also good .
Coming to the Starters:
Non veg platter: the platter is just perfect with mix variety of chicken mutton fish. Though the seek kebab would have been better , but overall the dish was great.
Veg Platter :. All the items in the platter were good , especially the beet root kebab and the Vada pav , I loved the bada pav.
Stuffed quail : this one was the highlight , the quail was perfectly cooked and the spices were on point. I would request you do try this dish.
Quinoa Kebab: the dish was okaiysh , not for my palate.
Junglee mushroom Kebab: this dish was utter dissapointment, everything was in excess and it tasted bad , Management please look into this.
Pav Bhaji : OMG the softest pav I ever had perfectly blended in butter. This one was the highlight.
Butter chicken : This one was also a disappointed , Not staying true to its nature and trying to make the dish spicy ruined it. Please work on this dish.
Dal makhni: it was good , blended well with the naan served and tasted well.
Cheese Kulcha: Kulcha stuffed with loads of cheese and served piping hot , OMG i fell in love with it.
Tandoori chicken served with Kashmiri Pulao: this was out of the box dish which lived upto it's presentation and idea , the kashmiri pulao was awesome.
Chicken Biryani: The biryani had lot of elaichi and it was enough to disappoint big time , they really need to work on the biryani part. We Hyderabadi do not like elaichi in our biryani.
Lamb Chops : the dish was okaiysh , well marinated but not completely cooked. About 80 percent of the dish was cooked , the mutton was fresh and tender.
Now coming to desert:
Gulab Jamun Cheese Cake: One of the Bestest desert I ever had. You definately need to try it. I would go back oy for this.
Carrot Cheesecake: Over all a good desert.
Overall the place is really good with great ambience and some lip smacking food. You really need to go to this place and try out their dishes. Its the experience and the hospitality along with food that would stay with you for a very long time.
What a beautiful place this was. Very friendly staff. Amazing food and an excellent ambience. Must visit place for a food lover. They accept gold as well :p

Essence Fusion is one of the top fine Dine restaurants in posh locality of Jubilee Hills. Essence Fusion has taken the level of Fine Dine and Ambiance to the next level in Jubilee Hills and Hyderabad. I was invited for food review session by the Management.
Essence Fusion and Aura is run by the same Management. I've visited Essence Fusion yesterday with my friends. The Ambiance was very pleasant and will surely give you a perfect Fine Dining experience. The interior is very elegant and have a royal look.
Starters: We stared with Dal ka Shorba, Veg Platter, Non-Veg Platter, Junglee Mushroom Kebabs, Stuffed Tandoori Quail, Lamb Chops, Street Style Pav Bhaji, Quinoa Kebabs. The presentation and taste were awesome. Non-Veg Platter, Stuffed Tandoori Quail and Lamb Chops were my favourite.
Main Course: We had Butter Chicken, Dal Makhani along with Naan, Lacha Paratha, Mushroom and Truffle Mini Kulcha, Cheddar Cheese Mini Kulcha. Butter Chicken was perfectly cooked and the taste was amazing. Then we had Chicken Pot Biryani, it was well marinated and rice was good.
Mocktails: We had Chilli Guava, Berry Cooler, Desi Mojito, Strawberry Dilkhush and Jeera Cola. Berry Cooler and Strawberry Cooler were my favourite and the presentation was top notch.
Deserts: We had Gulab Jamun Cheese Cake, Carrot Halwa Cake, Kheer with Strawberry Rabri. Gulab Jamun Cheese Cake is one of their signature dishes and it's highly recommended.
The service was very quick and they were prompt. The Management was very polite and friendly. Overall experience was great and I'd highly recommend this place if you're looking for pleasant Ambiance, and delicious food.
Why essence fusion ✨✨ - Because I have been hearing about this place a lot and Since I have already been to Aura, I was thrilled by the fact that's what's new is coming this time on the table.
Ambiance 🎆🎆 - luxurious interiors, a perfect date and dine place. It's hard to admit that I can't stop myself to not take a selfie in the washroom 🙈. Gold theme has added the exotic look in the restaurant. So kudos to interior designer of this place.
Food 🍽️🍽️ - We opted for Chef Special Menü which is 799* for Veg and 899 * for Non - Veg. It covers almost all the special varieties of Essence Fusion.
Here special mention to the plating and dressing of the serving plates.😍 for a moment , I don't want to eat so that I can keep staring at the beautiful dressing and dishes.
Flavour - 10/10 scrumptious , can't stop drooling🤤 even after having a proper 3 course meal.
Yay or Nay👍👎- If there's an option on Zomato for 6 or even more, I wouldn't mind giving it. If you are looking for quality over quantity and a apetite satisfying dinner/lunch. Stop it right here and book your table ASAP!!
♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
“ For a perfect date night”
So we went here on a weekday evening around 730 Pm on my wife’s birthday . The place was empty, we had the entire restaurant for ourselves.
A few people came later.
We were warmly welcomed and shown our seats. The place has the vibes of a well maintained restaurant with chandeliers and glass all around giving you royal feels. Overall we loved the ambiance.
We started our dinner with Chicken and coriander shorba. Which was hot and yum. It’s little like home made rasam that we find in Andhra but tasted real good.
Then we ordered a couple of starters, one was tandoori broccoli and cauliflower. This is the first time i was able to eat broccoli in full. The taste was unique and huge shout out to the chef for making broccoli yum 😋. The other starter we ordered was some stuffed chicken drumsticks. They were good but nothing great.
Along with the food we ordered a couple of mock tails to go with - desi mojito and strawberry one. Both were good. Desi mojito was a little salty and full of mint. But strawberry one was too good. We were little disappointed that mango mocktail was not available though it was in season.
Finally we skipped main course and went for dessert. We ordered a Gulab jamun cheese cake and it was so yum. it was served with mango sorbet . The combination was something i never tried till now. But loved it 💕.
Overall happy with the dinner. The place was peaceful and perfect for date nights where you can spend more time talking to each other and spend quality time with you friends or loved one’s.
PS - I went here in may, but looks like the menu changed quite a bit now. Check menu before going.
Food was very tasty and specially biryani was delicious its mouth watering..and it's one of the classiest restaurants one can visit ..it has a very royal ambience.where u can dine in peace with nice music .service is great .over all a very great place .
