                                                      A solid 7-7.5. Food: It was good but underwhelming. For example just make a really good, classic caesar dressing instead of adding a whole anchovy on top of the salad. I call this fluff. Make it really well then add the fluff. The bread was a bit dry and the lobster could have used some melted butter on the side. The portions for the side dishes of mains is a little off. I think that if protein is the star, there should at least be two side dishes even if the sides are on the smaller size. Fish and potatoes is just boring. Service: Our server was great. I think it's now pretty standard in downtown Toronto where the service outshines the food in a lot of places. Ambience: This was my second time at Epoch and it's feeling dated. Overall impression is that there are too many good restaurants in Toronto to choose from. Epoch does not really stand out. Basic for a resto connected to the Ritz.

                                                      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.

                                                      Our bartender was fantastic and made a wonderful vodka martini. Atmosphere and ambience perfect for a cold Sunday afternoon before Christmad.

                                                      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.

                                                      The setting is elegant. The desserts were good, can’t say the same for the savoury pieces: too few and no imagination to them at all. Our waitress was downright unpleasant; it felt like she couldn’t wait for us to finish up. Won’t be coming back.

                                                      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!
