Epicure

Amazing african Cuisines, great service from staff, fantastic decor and the most chilled place for any occasion. Chef Coco takes pride in serving the wonderful dishes. I really appreciated the environment and the welcome. <br/ Will recommend Epicure to anyone who wants to experience find dining.

Absolutely fabulous! The ambience was lovely, the food delicious and the service top quality. The booking was effortless, the hostess was pleasant on the phone and in person. Our waitress, Lulu, was on point and made such a great effort to make our experience a pleasure. We met Chef Coco which personalised the experience. Fantastic team and experience all around.

A 'vibe ' requires people. Is there even a saying such as that?!? Well, I won 't fault them on that. Maybe people aren 't Monday morning people.<br/ <br/ I went to Epicure for brunch on Monday morning. The place barely had people. It was us and probably 4 other tables. That did not dampen our spirit though. We loved every minute. Will most definitely go back on a weekend night for food and drinks.<br/ <br/ I absolutely love the decor. Epicure is beautiful. So is their food. We went for the breakfast menu. We had the Shashuska a normal and vegan one and both dishes were well received. I had the crossing something, added egg and avo to eat and it was divine. I am addicted to tomatoes sauce (which they do not have I instead got a mayonnaise sauce thing which went down as well, if not better).<br/ <br/ Getting to Epicure is a bit of a mission with no signs to guide you. I drove into the wrong parking lot and had to drive out and back in. It was unnecessarily time consuming. Once I got in the building, I had to ask at reception, again another labour intensive activity that could have been avoided had a clear sign been put up. Having said that, It was worth the effort.<br/ <br/ We paid R550, including a questionably deserved tip for our meals, 1 hot and 1 cold drink for each of us. The service and landmarkings are points of improvement.

I was sold by the first cocktails! The “Epic” truly lives upto it’s name both in terms of presentation and in taste. There is a bar section for those who want to swing by to sample the cocktails, the use of fresh ingredients is noticeable.<br/ <br/ No detail has been spared in the look and feel, from the live edge bathroom sinks, to tooth picks in branded wooden boxes. <br/ <br/ If I had to break down what I look for when I eat out, I’d say 20% look and feel, 40% experience and 40% food. This place delivered and had a great ambiance on a Saturday night.<br/ <br/ Things to look out for, a little tricky to find from the road and Be sure to book. Oh and I noticed almost half the patrons were dressed in African attire which might be a fun thing to do. Dress up and have a pretty drink at Epicure, def worth it.

Absolutely loved the food. Very professional. Will definitely call again. Just realised as we were there that there isn't a place in Johannesburg with fine African dining quite like Epicure.
