Any bookwork would appreciate the restaurant’s name – Epilogue, meaning the section or speech at the end of a book or play that serves as a comment on or a conclusion to what has happened. Like its literary meaning, the restaurant offers an epicurean retreat for those living or finding themselves west of the metro. The mood is set with its lightly dimmed contemporary interiors, which complement the modern take on European cuisine.

While the restaurant has excellent dishes across the menu, here are some must-try dishes served from their degustación menu:

The key concept in the kitchen is the practice of Kodawari or the pursuit of perfection through dedication and focus on the task at hand. As can be seen in the technique used in the dishes like the Crispy AMADAI, the chef exercises precision in every dish and instills purpose to every texture and taste.
