Epilogue Kitchen and Cocktails

"It was our second time eating at Epilogue, the first was a birthday brunch with friends and it was delicious! We decided to come back for dinner to celebrate our anniversary and the food was again, delicious. The folks working were so kind and helpful and opened champagne we had brought with us. (Normally we wouldn’t BYOB to a restaurant but it was a milestone and the bottle was a wedding gift) I had the crab cakes, totally nailed it. Not dry, flavorful, and the corn relish was a great pairing. My husband had the rabbit, which was moist and seasoned well, the carrots it came with were smoky and delicious! We also had deserts, the oatmeal cookie and pecan Dacquoise which were both very good. I can’t wait to go back for brunch with a designated driver or attend one of their special dinners! I wish there was more on the menu because I’m selfish and want more from this kitchen, the dishes are so good and clearly a lot of thought go into them. I highly recommend Epilogue if you like comfort foods with a fancy twist."

"We had been wanting to try this place for a while and had high hopes. The vibe is great and I love the whole idea of the place. Service is good. Feels like a true date spot. I wasn't too impressed with the limited choices for entrees but assumed a limited menu means really dialed in work and everything would be excellent. Cocktails were nice and beautiful presentation. We got a sandwich and chicken and waffles. We weren't very excited about either. I knew the chicken and waffles would have a cheese sauce and even with an open mind, it just didn't sit right. The sandwich was really a pretty typical sandwich. We feel we paid extra for a vibe, which is fair, but probably wouldn't go out of our way to return."

"I have done very few reviews that i considered to be less than favorable and i dont enjoy those. We tried this place thinking it would be a new experience, it was not something i would do again. It was very cold and all four of us were guessing how cold it was and then i saw a thermostat control on the wall so i took a picture. It is very dimly lit and i saw a few people using their phone to see the menu. The menu is so strange and everything has some title that made no sense to me. The menu items had a lot of ingredients ive never heard of and i found that confusing. I searched the menu for something i recognized and found chicken and waffles so i ordered that. I imagined chicken, syrup and waffles. The chicken arrived and it was coated in something that tasted strange and the waffles had cheese sauce on them, i dont like cheese but ate it anyway because i was starving. It gave me a stomach ache. Just my experience, others might love it."

"We have been here plenty of times in the past, and unfortunately I never got around to writing a review - that ends tonight! We took my significant other's mom out to dinner tonight and it was nothing short of spectacular. We have never had a bad experience at Epilogue, and continue to be impressed by the high quality drinks; the craft and care put into each drink, and the quality of food and care in making sure every ingredient shines in a dish, no matter how small. We ordered the West Philadelphia, Porkchop, Walleye Fish and Chips special, a side of Beet Soup, and then a Pecan Dacquoise and Peach Shortcake special as desserts, along with their brandy old fashions and the Sand & Sun cocktail. The pictures do not do the food justice as to how amazing each dish is, each drink is, and the mastery in executing these all. I cannot give Epilogue enough stars to express how great they are, continue to be and we know they will be on our next visit. Jonathan and his team are culinary savants. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐"
