    All four dishes were great - short ribs, chicken, vegetarian risotto and salmon with mint peas. Service was friendly and quick. Wasn’t the first time and definitely not the last time ! Definitely 2 thumbs up!

    My wife had the risotto. It was undercooked, and the only flavor came from the overabundance of shredded carrots. We know that wine taste varies, but we thought the Rosé was below our expectations.
    Epulo BistroResponded 3 days ago
    Hi Dennis, Thank you for your honest review — I'm truly sorry to hear your recent dining experience fell short. It sounds like the risotto didn’t meet our usual standards. We always aim to ensure our guests leave happy, I hope you'll give us another chance to provide a better experience. And please don’t hesitate to let us know if something’s not to your liking — we’re always happy to find something you’ll enjoy! Warm Regards, Heather D. Communications Manager

    Last few times I’ve visited Epulo , didn’t live up to the standards. While some dishes were good, quite a few were underwhelming. In particular, margharita pizza. Crust was undercooked and there was waaay too much cheese in it. I, and our group expected a lot more. Our server was nice

    Celebrated a birthday with a nice shaded outdoor table and a gentle breeze. Ordered salads off the Happy Hour menu and spectacular sockeye salmon and special pork tenderloin. All was prepared very well and we thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience! We were served a tiramisu for a birthday dessert (free of charge) and it was very yummy.

    Both of us love Epulo and chose to celebrate our anniversary there. Our food was absolutely delicious. We very much appreciate the selection of the local bakery, The Cottage, as the bread selection. And it was yummy! The salmon in both of our dishes was so very good. The wine selection is varied and distinctive. The noise level is typical until a train rolls by but that is part of Edmonds!
    Epulo BistroResponded 4 days ago
    Hi Kathryn, Thank you so much for celebrating with us! We are so happy you enjoyed all the aspects of your meal with us, it is so nice to hear you enjoyed the salmon and the delicious Cottage bread (we love supporting local too!) I will definitely let Molly know your kind words as well she will be so happy to hear you enjoyed her service that evening! Hope to see you back soon! Warmly, Heather D. Communications Manager

    We waited 30 mins for beverages. Waited almost 2 hours for food. They said they were down one burner. Won’t be going back

    We’ve always been huge Epulo fans both in the summer for the patio and the winter for inside vibe. The food is delicious, no complaints and only complements! Last night we went for hh and were a little surprised at the portion of $24 pasta. Delicious, but literally 4 noodles. I’d recommend saving the pasta for dinner if you go. All else, spot on for price and value.

    Our mains were cold when delivered. My daughter ordered her steak medium rare but it was extremely rare. My gnocchi was also undercooked, and hardly warm. Pur waitress was lovely but something was going down in the kitchen, because things did mot taste right.
    Epulo BistroResponded 4 days ago
    Hi Rita, We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry to hear your meals weren’t served as expected, and we understand how disappointing that must have been. We are definitely looking into it and ways to make sure this doesn't happen again. I'm glad you enjoyed your service, but we strive to provide 5 star experiences across the board and are sorry we missed the mark this visit. I hope you will consider us again so we can provide the experience you deserve! Warmly, Heather D. Communications Manager
