Food was good. Seating was very low and we were sat right by the bar back. Seemed to have better seating around. Would have loved something a little nicer as it was our anniversary. Mentioned that on our booking but no associated service with that celebration.

Great tea selection & attention to detail. The food was well balanced and the chefs have an innovative take on the High Tea classics. Most importantly; everything was really tasty! Appreciated the holiday theme. Service was intuitive & extremely hospitable; although as a relatively frequent guest of the Ritz Carlton, that is their gold standard. Highly recommended! Looking forward to this experience next year.

Excellent! We enjoyed a high tea at the Epoch. The food was wonderfully prepared, fresh, and tasty. Each piece is like a piece of art where time was taken in design, preparation and decoration. The service is excellent, the staff were professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. The place is clean and decorated for the season. A great place to come and enjoy!

This has become our Go To restaurant. It has the best serving staff, consistently innovative cocktails and amazing food. We recently went to a new buzzy restaurant (Milos) and as we sat waiting an hour for a table with indifferent service and wildly overpriced food, we lamented not going to Epoch.
