Dijon is a great dining city and L’Essentiel was our favorite. It’s a very popular, buzzy spot with vibrant decor and comfortable seating. They were very welcoming and service was good, especially considering that 3 guys were handling all of the tables. There’s a set menu and you can select 3, 4 or 6 courses including daily specials.

What a superb find in a quiet street off the busy tourist area! We had an exceptional meal by an obviously talented chef.

It was lovely to have the complimentary canapés, amuse bouche and chocolates to accompany the meal. The staff were friendly, although they could do with a wine waiter as there was a slight issue with getting wine to drink with the course rather than after it was finished, they were just very busy as the restaurant was full. Thank you for a lovely evening!

Unpretentious restaurant in central Dijon providing excellent service and very good food. The foie gras was superb, the monkfish perfectly cooked and the cheese plate a great way to end a meal. We shared a bottle of decent white burgundy and the price was around £150 for two, all inclusive. There are plenty of good restaurants in the area but L’Essentiel is well worth a visit.
