✨️ NEW ✨ A little more choice is now on the Essence of Spice menu.

Guests who prefer white meat can now request it with any of our chicken dishes for a small additional charge. Simply let our team know when placing your order, and we’ll be happy to take care of the rest.

Asking someone out takes courage and can be tough - but we think Taanish has all the right moves. 😏

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ • “We had a wonderful dining experience at Essence of Spices in Gravenhurst. Taanish was an exceptionally humble, welcoming, and gracious host who made us feel genuinely valued from the moment we arrived. His warm personality, attentive service, and sincere hospitality made our visit truly memorable.

The food was absolutely delicious, freshly prepared, served hot, and beautifully presented. Every dish was full of flavour, and the service was prompt and professional. Thank you, Taanish, and the entire team for making our experience so special. We highly recommend Essence of Spices, we were visiting from Brantford and will definitely visit again when we are in this area.”

Thank you so much for taking the time to share such thoughtful words. Reviews like this mean so much to our family and team. We’re especially happy to hear that Taanish made you feel genuinely welcome and that your meal was memorable from beginning to end. It was a pleasure serving you during your visit from Brantford, and we’ll be so happy to welcome you back the next time you’re in Muskoka! ❤️

☀🫧 Your Civic Holiday Monday could use a little more colour... and possibly a few more bubbles!

Essence of Spice is OPEN today from 4PM to 8PM for dine-in, takeout and delivery. Join us for dinner, pick something up on the way home or let us bring the flavour to you!

While you’re deciding, we have a very important question: have you tried one of our new boba beverages yet? Choosing a favourite is serious business, so tell us which one has your vote in the comments. If you’re still undecided, tonight sounds like an excellent opportunity for further research. For science, of course. 😉🔬

Dinner and boba on a holiday Monday? We like the sound of that! See you tonight, friends!

😊 Taanish’s smile says it all.

Few things make the Singh family happier than preparing the recipes we love and cooking for you and your family. Every tray that leaves our kitchen gives us another chance to share our food, our traditions and a little of what brings our own family together.

Thank you for letting our family be part of your family meals. ❤️

🌶️ Mild, Medium, Spicy... or 'Canadian Spicy'? 😂

Akshay knows that heat levels can be a matter of perspective. We’ll happily make your order the way you enjoy it, but tell us honestly: what’s your spice level?

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ • "We ordered the butter shrimp, goat vindaloo, chicken tikka masala, and butter shrimp with naan and rice and the flavours of every dish were so incredibly delicious!! It was great and more than enough food for a family of 4." -- Jillian L.

A family of four, a table full of flavour and five very appreciated stars. We like that math!

Thank you, Jillian. We’re so happy your family enjoyed every dish, and we truly appreciate you taking the time to share such a lovely review.
