Excellent restaurant that we’ve been to quite a few times. Baked cod was superb and warm feta appetizer we order every time since it’s the best!

We had a very enjoyable outing at Epoch last night. Our party of four booked for 6 pm. The bar and dining room were pretty busy when we arrived and throughout the evening. Our knowledgeable and affable server Jess took great care of us. We couldn't help but notice a couple of large groups that might normally put pressure on the dining room. We observed the staff helping each other out to share in bringing the service levels up to meet the demand. We were also impressed to see management rolling up its sleeves. Food and beverages were excellent. Knowing the restaurant's reputation for its salmon, all four of us ordered the savory dish. Epoch did not disappoint. We often find Epoch a great spot for Sunday brunch, but it should also be considered a hot spot for dinner.

About the restaurant

Over the years I have traveled extensively throughout Italy in search of new ideas, recipes, and great wines to bring back to Three Tomatoes. The source of inspiration continues to be the simple, fresh, healthy and local foods of Trattoria style cooking. Eating in a Trattoria in Italy is like eating with an Italian family. The mood can be relaxed or boisterous, but always friendly. It is a home away from home and a gathering place for friends. I have tried to capture the warmth of the trattoria kitchen with its open fire, the aroma of simmering sauces, roasted meats, grilled fish and pizza baking in our custom built wood fired oven. Our newly revised wine list has been enhanced by selections of distinction and value inspired by attending Vinitaly, Slow Food's Terra Madre and visiting vineyards throughout Italy, Sicily and Sardinia. Three Tomatoes has captured some of the spirit that makes wine, food, and conviviality such an important part of trattoria life.

We often have our Book Group meet here. The staff is always welcoming. Today was no different. I had mistakenly only reserved a table for 2 instead of 6 but it was no problem. Love the restaurant.

We had a fabulous meal at The Rooftop. I ordered the braised short rib and my friend ordered the grilled shrimp bowl. Both were excellent![. Then we ordered a chocolate cake w a marshmallow frosting which came with a small carafe of melted caramel to drizzle over it - it was so yummy! Service was great, our waitress was very attentive and helpful. Even though it was raining the view was wonderful! I would highly recommend The Rooftop!

The brunch was fine, few choices but ok. The music was the best out of everything. I will return just for the music! The waiter , Ben,must have been new. He needs more training, very poor service, plus he told us we had to do the buffet, but the table next to us ordered off of the menu.

Good food, not the most attentive service. Music was loud and not suited to the ambiance, but we’re old so not best judge of that.
