I've been dining at Epulo for years and sadly have watched it slowly go downhill post Covid. Tonight at a celebratory dinner with my daughter, we were seated by a drafty window. Offsetting that was a delightful holiday piano player which created a nice ambiance. The service was inattentive throughout the evening except the water gal who was totally on point. I have ordered the Little Gem Salad often and love it but tonight the dressing was tasteless. I couldn't eat it. The Chicken Breast Piccata came as a leg with brown sauce which is the total opposite of lemon and caper sauce. The asparagus saved the dish. My daughter ordered the Rigatoni which she liked. It's hard to mess up baked pasta. I'm not sure if it was a bad night but with so many good restaurants to choose from I will not choose Epulo next time.

It was a busy night with many large parties celebrating the holidays. We had a schedule due to a play after dinner. Our waitress was very attentive and got our order in before all the big parties and our food was delicious. We were able to enjoy a lovely dinner at a relaxed pace and still make it to the play on time.

Food is delicious. Good wine by the glass choices. Service is friendly. Enjoyed the pianist playing holiday tunes. Tables closer to the bar have more noise than those nearer the front door.

Wonderful food and service top notch. It was very difficult to carry on conversations because with the piano player playing people were talking really loud to be heard. I wish unfortunately there was not a piano player. Overall, dinner was amazing absolutely fabulous customer service. I think next time I go I will aim for the summer when I can sit outside and can carry on a conversation with the rest of the people in my group because it is a very noisy restaurant..

Tried the lamb preparation and was pleased with the taste but thought the actual quantity of meat was a bit lacking.

Epulo is always a great place to dine. Food and service always excellent! Tonight we reserved a table in their holiday pop up and it is not to be missed! If you are in the mood to celebrate the season or need a little help getting into the Christmas spirit you need to go here! Fabulous!
