ESSENSIA RESTAURANT IN MIAMI BEACH

Mindfully Sourced,
Seasonally Inspired

Essensia Restaurant offers healthfully crafted, seasonal cuisine inspired by the flavors of the Mediterranean and the rhythm of Miami’s coast. Following a farm-to-table philosophy, ingredients come from local farms and trusted waters, and menus change with what’s in season. The setting feels open and calm, with indoor and outdoor spaces surrounded by tropical gardens. Recognized as both a Slow Food Miami Snail of Approval and an Ocean Friendly Restaurant, Essensia reflects the Palms' commitment to sustainable sourcing, mindful preparation, and clean, fair food that nourishes both people and the planet.
