We called into the restaurant to let them know, but were quickly dismissed. The staff member who picked up the phone was obviously not interested in hearing our issue, quickly shoeing us off of the phone and not taking our contact info before hanging up. A disappointing experience, and would definitely think twice about going back. UPDATE: The manager reached out and apologized for our experience. She assured to us that she holds the restaurant and staff to a higher standard than what we experienced, and she encouraged us to give Epulo another chance by giving us a generous gift card (a very kind gesture). Although our first experience was subpar, management seems on top of things and is very professional. We will certainly be giving Epulo another try, after which I will update this review again. For the time being, I am updating my rating to 4 stars due to such a positive experience with management.

The roasted vegetable appetizer had squash that was hard as a rock (uncooked) and was overall bland. My partner's risotto was al dente and also bland/under seasoned. The best part of our meal was the petit filet which was perfectly cooked and seasoned. The garlic mashed potatoes were ok, as were the measly 3 pieces of asparagus. Even our drinks weren't on spot both too sweet/weak pours. First and last visit for us and we certainly wouldn't recommend it to anyone. Food: 2 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4
