Housed in a beautifully restored Victorian terrace near Carlton Gardens, Epocha serves refined European cooking with a strong emphasis on whole-animal butchery and seasonal produce. The pasta and the slow-cooked meats are consistently excellent, and the wine list is thoughtfully European-leaning. The room is romantic and the service is genuinely warm. A slightly under-the-radar gem compared to some CBD counterparts.
