Excellent service from Carlene and Brent. Lobster roll was amazing. Bread pudding different than what would expect but delicious. Looking forward to the patio opening up with the nicer well. Thanks again Carlene and Brent. CapsFam

Pretty mediocre. As soon as we arrived we were given a time limit on our seating. There was literally no one in the place. When I'm paying for "tea" prix fix, I don't want to be given a time limit on how long I can enjoy my experience. Pretty lame. The staff were very nice, otherwise.

We had an excellent experience at Epoch today. The service was outstanding, the food was delicious and the ambiance was perfect. I was a little surprised our servers didn’t seem to know about the information we had put into our Open Table reservation (they didn’t know we were celebrating a birthday until they overheard us talking about it) although we listed it in the reservation. However, they were extremely hospitable and thoughtful- they even brought out a birthday brownie to honour the event. It was a wonderful experience and we enjoyed it immensely!

We went for Afternoon Tea to celebrate my birthday. The place is spectacular, and we were seated by the fireplace. They also have a beautiful outdoor patio. While the afternoon tea was a bit pricey compared to other places, it was to be expected after all we were dining at the Ritz Carlton. The food was delicious, and the staff were super attentive, always making sure our needs were taken care of. The Ritz Carlton is definely worth a visit.
