Uncertain what happened here. Came in after checking their menu online. My partner and I wanted some light snacks before an orchestra date night. We had called before to find out about what "Gluten free" means and if there were grain free options as well. Grain free options are not provided but we were permitted to bring our own veggies for dipping. Okay! Bonus! Thanks! Seeing the mocktails on the menu was a big draw for us also. The plates seemed balanced enough for each of us to have something and share. We BYOV based on what we saw online. We sat down at table after kinda being half acknowledged as potential customers? I didnt notice anyone seating so we wandered to what looked like an open table away from the blaring speaker over the entrance. No one objected so we claimed a high top for ourselves. Server brought a menu with very few familiar items. We are told its more difficult to update the website than the artisan paper printed with the current menu options. We pivot. None of the mocktails we saw online available either. Server offers to make us something on the fly. We let them know we brought our veggies because one of us has grain allergies. We were offered corn chips. We politely declined. Chose 2 things that rotate and 2 things that regular offerings. Items came in tiny ball jars that made the cubes very difficult to fish out. Seems like a good way to prep stock at open but very difficult to serve after solidified in fridge. The warm dips were easier to manage. As we progressed through our meal we noticed the music was...loud and very off-putting. Don't get me wrong, we love some sebadoh and sunny day real estate but uhm, who died and why is it the loudest emo funeral I've never been to? Must have been someone important because i definitely watched the bartenders doing shots together behind the counter during the long wait between getting our items, finishing and waiting for our check. Also, why did the server announce the bill total? That was kinda embarrassing. We can read the bill. I do not know what they're going for here at all. It was tasty but im not sure how much range they have for food. Definitely seems more like an obligatory "here's a food for the 7 booze you're actually here for". Might try again? Honestly so absolutely flummoxed on this. Now I have dinosaur Jr stuck in...
Read moreI had an epiphany about epiphany! Maybe it was the back to back trips in January to meet folks. Maybe it was the trips in the spring, where I found the snacks to have changed. Epiphany us my new favorite place. Hidden away Of off Baxter avenue, this fabulous cocktail bar is located in the old USPS sorting room. They have created a comfortable vibe with exposed brick, beautiful lighting, and comfortable seating. The space is so comfortable you honestly don’t want to leave. So come on in and stay a while. The cocktails are flavorful and beautiful. I have yet to find a cocktail I didn’t like. They have all been amazing so far. The Jimador breakfast is a personal favorite. Maybe it’s the tequila. Maybe it’s the intrigue of an egg. It’s so flavorful with layers of taste. The snacks have been another favorite. I truly wish the green tomatoes that are like olives were still on the menu, but I recognize this is seasonal. For the spring, The black bean dip was spicy and yummy! Our friend is gluten free and the owner actually brought out gluten free chips for her to try which was very thoughtful. It’s a beautiful experience and a perfect place for a conversation. The peak love of this place is you can even buy produce when you leave. It’s fresh from a local farm. What more could you want? You’ve had an epiphany now too, get down there as...
Read moreLOVED this place! The whole atmosphere and decor were spot on. It was both casual and a great date spot. Both of the bartenders were great to talk to and really seemed passionate about what they did.
My sister and I both got the Avalon- so delicious! It was fresh, light, and balanced. I'd highly recommend, especially if you love gin.
We also split 6 different little apps. Everything was so good! The black bean dip was the best bean dip I've ever had, as was the Kentucky queso! The spicy Epiphany Pickles were crunchy and delicious -- not too spicy but went so well with the salami. The Macha salsa was my favorite but my sister didn't care for it. It was very savory and had a thick texture. But it was warm like an Asian chili crisp oil. We loved the bacon Fig jam but I'll say, it was so rich. It would've gone well with goat...
