    Always brilliant! Highly recommended. The Epicurian is a crowd pleaser - whether it be a crowd of 20 or 2! The food is consistently good quality fresh produce, turning out Italian classics without fuss in an industrial feel old apple warehouse with some very nice finishes and a large wood fired pizza oven. In winter the fireplaces are ablaze and it is always cozy. In summer the doors swing open and there is a sense of the forrest beyond where nature trails take you through the trees in nearby hills. The staff are attentive, the wine list is perfect for food pairing! You cannot go past Epicurian for a fantastic experience in the Red Hill region.

    Wonderful venue & absolutely delicious food. Service was attentive & impressive however due to a couple of large tables it was extremely noisy. It was also a very hot day & air conditioning was totally inadequate.

    We have been here quite a few times (twice in the past 8 days) and have never been disappointed. Our Granddaughter (16) loved it as well. Well done Morning Sun. We are looking forward to our next visit 👍

    Lovely setting, professional but not uptight. Food was tasty and we were welcomed to sit outside when ever it suited if the sun came out. We will go back as it had a great feeling all round. 👍
