Friendly service. Pork pasta dish was nice but had odd favoured olives in it. Think I might prefer the pizzas here. Desert was lovely.

We arrived at 720 for a 730 booking and sat on a couch till 730 next to one of many empty tables. Waited 1 hour for our food and we’re told the fish took 40 minutes to cook . Eventually when the food did arrive it was underwhelming to say the least. We kept asking the staff but they did not respond with an answer . We got up to leave and pay the Bill and we nearly fell over . The front of house Lady offered us a free dessert but we were well over it by then. Overall we were so disappointed. I’d probably give it another go and be a bit more aware next time and just eat pizza even though we crave for good food on the Peninsula.

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.

The Eoicurean and in particular Kate always deliver high value experiences each and every time we go there . From the moment you arrive you are treated like family members and your food experience is made by better by your own interest in local products. Plus the wine list includes local producers who mss as ke s as n effort to highlight the fact they are on the menu .
