The service was excellent and the food delicious!
This place is charming, the service kind, and the atmosphere buzzing. So it pained me to discover—and report—that the food not enamoring as well. This is the classic big-price-small-portion dichotomy, but lacking the quality to justify the hole in the wallet, and stomach.
By far the best place in town. Really worth stopping by 👍 thank you again for the amazing service ans food
Best Canadian French. The meal was so creative yet very delicious, and I could feel each ingredient vividly. Definitely a repeat. They do not have a fixed menu so it is hard to order it again, but butternut was a fire.
Amazing place and nice concept. Every dishes were tasty and the people really friendly. Stop to make !
First of all, Trois Rivieres is a happening town! Never expected it! They have this Nashville like centre street with all bars, restaurants and music. Then they have these great walks, waterfront, old buildings, etc. Cool as hell! Epi is off the charts. Michelin level chef, young and inventive, backed up by a top flight serving staff. Go for the tasting menu where you get four dishes. It will blow your mind and is not expensive at all. Each time the chef came out and explained the dish and it was fabulous! Also tasty beers and terrific wine. Had to drag us out as we were having so much fun. Go there and enjoy! All of Toronto should go to Quebec and everyone should go to Epi!p
Truly worth a visit, if you are into fine dining in a casual mood. If it's on the ardoise, I strongly suggest you try the soft shell crab, but you cannot go wrong with anything on the menu. Adding to the awesome food is a great choice of wine, either by the glass or bottle. I will be back next time I'm in Trois-Rivières!
We stopped in Trois Rivieres on our way to Montreal. We walked along a road and found this place. Looked nice and charming. We walked in and we chose to sit on the back patio where we were ignored. We left after waiting for 10 minutes without any sort of attention from staff. Place felt pretentious. Maybe because we were tourists.
It was delicious and the server was able to establish a friendly relationship with us.
Thank you Simon, Vincent and Florie for the beautiful evening. Beautiful, friendly place, perfect welcome and food, 5/5!
Beautiful atmosphere, very pleasant team and food to discover. Thank you for your lovely welcome
Great experience with Chef Simon. He took the time to explain the dishes to us. We sat at the bar right in front of the stove (the best place) We received wise advice from sommelier Vincent to accompany our dishes. Superb experience, thank you for having us at your restaurant.
Excellent evening with guest chef.
server that pushes consumption
Service: pushes too much towards consumption (offered us to take all the dishes, lol). Cuisine: the dish was dry and tasteless, really disappointed.
Great place! Simple, original, nice.... full mushrooms Super interesting sharing dish formula that allows us to taste everything.... Because the slate is just awesome
Perfect place to spend a lovely evening and enjoy the excellence of the cuisine and service.
Pleasant seats at the bar. Creative menu changing with the seasons, recommended for those who want to discover. 2 starters and 4 main courses amply cover 2 people.
An exceptional place in the heart of Trois-Rivieres. Charming and intimate setting, a super pleasant and smiling chef & waiter duo and dishes to die for. A real treat for the taste buds. Thank you for this beautiful moment.
Always delicious, extraordinary service. I sincerely love it. Thank you for the excellence
The restaurant offers small dishes (tapas type). We love this kind of menu. In this restaurant, we really enjoyed the radishes and quail. The zucchini fritters and duck were good, nothing more. The pasta dish was very ordinary. As other customers have pointed out, the price-performance ratio leaves a little to be desired.
In a word: brilliant! Flawless from start to finish. The ultra warm welcome by the team, the moments taken to chat with us really made us feel good, we felt the sincerity of the interactions and the conviviality of the place, which ultimately also creates itself between the tables. What can we say about the dishes other than delicious? The research and creativity of everyone involved is worth the detour. A touch of delicious astonishment in each dish, we enjoy it. The quality is really there and you can feel the work and love put into each dish. Special mention for the tortellini and mushrooms, Ohlala! Finally, the choice of wine is also great. The sommelier has a very interesting selection and we were able to discover several of these wines with the associated explanations, again flawless. We learned that we were there on the day of the restaurants 7th anniversary, and congratulations again and long life to the restaurant, may it continue for a long time with this spirit of spreading happiness! PS: several (delicious) options for vegetarians, another real plus! Vegetarian options: Lots of options for vegetarians, and absolutely delicious!
Great evening! Great welcome from the whole team! Seared scallops to perfection. A pasta dish that perfectly juggles comfort food and gourmet cuisine. The highlight, a veal rice, perfectly executed with a succulent accompaniment of corn, bacon, Marguerite capers!
Good atmosphere, excellent service. Good wine and delicious cocktail/mocktails. The food is impeccably presented with flowers and local produce featured. I highly recommend!
The service is average. We are easily forgotten. Food is good in general but for a 3 plus. The plus is the choice of wine or alcohol which is pleasant hence the 4 in atmosphere.
Exceptional dining experience. I cant wait to go back
Very friendly atmosphere, good service. The dishes are delicious and tasty, beautiful presentation. Small portions
The food is beyond delicious
Beautifully passionate team, intimate atmosphere. Delicious !
Chef Lemires stand-up!!!
What a great experience!!! A friendly place with attentive service. And what about the dishes!!! Flawless for everything we were able to taste: Radish (wow!!!), Pastamama, zucchini fritters, duck and dessert everything was PERFECT. A place to discover and not to be missed if your steps take you to Trous Rivières. A big THANK YOU and above all don t change anything.
Eating at lÉpi was an experience and not just a meal in a restaurant. We ate at the bar and were able to chat with the kitchen staff, which enhanced our time. I recommend! Dietary restrictions: Pregnant woman
Alright
Very good service and great food!
Yes Chef
Excellent evening atmosphere. Fast and personalized service and we loved all the dishes. Good selection of wine, especially the orange wine. Dishes to share or not! We are definitely going back.
The service was a little slow, especially at the end of the meal. We waited 45 minutes to get our bill. It was understaffed and there was a new person in the department. The food was excellent as always and the atmosphere relaxed. Vegetarian options: The celery root dish was sublime with the caramelized hazelnuts
I had a great evening but it was too noisy for me.
This little gem is worth the detour! Everything is perfect!
Just a big WOW !!
Great discovery! Everything was impeccable. The service, the dishes, the wine. Creative and tasty cuisine. A culinary experience that will definitely be repeated!
Impeccable all the way!
I loved this restaurant on my first visit. Ive been wanting to go there for a while and I wasnt disappointed at all! The food was delicious, the service excellent, the staff was courteous, the decor is warm with green plants... Not to mention all the nice touches like the ceramic plates or the salt on the butter or the freshly baked milk rolls or the view of the kitchen or the felt curtain at the entrance to cut off the cold at the tables.. . The two of us chose Scallop, Walleye, Green Peas, Back Pain cocktail and dessert (angel cake with whey ice cream, nuts). Everything was excellent and delicious except the dessert: the cake was dry and I didnt like the whey ice cream at all. The plates are not full like regular restaurants but every ingredient is delicious and its exactly what Im looking for and whats more it matches my type of hunger. I was hesitant to go there since I couldnt see the menu anywhere but finally I gave it a try and I was told that I can mention it in advance when booking that I dont eat meat! Wow! But the restaurant would benefit from publishing its menu like this! Despite this, I will definitely go back and I recommend and even compare it to the gourmet Buck, thats an understatement!
An excellent evening! The food was delicious, the wine pairing was perfect and the service was really friendly. A favorite!
What a great discovery! The food was delectable as much for the taste buds as for the eyes. The offering of dishes on the slate was inviting in every way. There is something for everyone and the ideal is to share! Super nice place, friendly service and unparalleled accessibility to the chef! To do again!
A perfect evening. An 8 course, food and wine pairing, delicious. We discovered jewelry. A cuisine of great chefs. Well done.
I adore ! Service, cuisine, the Magnificent team
The food and wine pairings were sophisticated, original and delicious. Each dish offered a unique and exquisite experience.
Tasty and sometimes surprising dishes, always succulent. Perfect for a meal with friends.
Parking: Selon le jour et lhoraire de votre visite Food
Very good and excellent personalized service! We will definitely return
Wow! A small, welcoming restaurant with exceptional cuisine and expert advice from an on-site sommelier for wine and food pairings. This increases the opportunities for gastronomic exchanges. A jewel !
Good but very long while the restaurant was almost empty and disappointing although the service was very friendly. The children for whom we had ordered specially when arriving waited 1 hour 15 minutes before being served pasta and were served after the adults starter and dishes. (Reservation made with a comment specifying that we would have two children with us) It s really a shame On the other hand, the Negroni was poorly balanced and the ice cream already melted in the glass. Finally the dishes were chipped. It smells like a good establishment losing momentum
Excellent food, extremely friendly waitress and chef. We had a lovely evening.
Delicious meal in every way! When we ask for a roll to make sure we don t forget a little sauce on our plates, that says it all! Quality food presented with care
Our 82 year old friend told us: go there to eat something else and you wont be disappointed. She said the truth! cattails, daisy button, tonnato sauce, etc. so well arranged in tastes, flavors and wines. Succulent evolving cuisine depending on the availability of food. Very well thought out. THANK YOU
We tasted 3 dishes and 1 dessert which were excellent. Dishes as beautiful as they are good A bit expensive though
Original food, great service and nice atmosphere.
The service was very slow. It took 1 hour to receive the first plate, the servers were not present and rather cold. The food arrived cold and it cost us $200 for 3 people and we didnt have enough to eat. I would not recommend this restaurant, for the quality of service and value for money
I had the pleasure of trying their lunch menu. My experience was flawless. The dish was not only delicious, but also well presented. The service was fast. I will definitely return.
Welcome and friendly service. Wine tasting. Beautiful atmosphere worthy of a good neighborhood bar!
The 4 of us took all the dishes to share. I found the portions a little small. Dish with 3 scallops, dish with 1 piece to share with 4 like after paying $100 per person my husband and I were still a little hungry.
Small, friendly restaurant that is not for everyone. The open mini kitchen in the center makes the atmosphere interesting and floods us with the scent of cooked food! The menu on the slate, however, is very niche (char, kid, black pudding, etc.) and does not offer much choice. On the one hand this ensures the freshness of the food but on the other hand you will have to make do with half a dozen dishes which are neither starters nor main courses. Therefore we suggest that you choose 2-3 per person in order to sustain yourself. What displeased me the most was the price asked for most of these dishes... The example of 3 small scallops for a whopping $26 struck me. They were good but at almost $9 a bite I would have expected more. The service is slow, you shouldnt be in a hurry but knowing that its not a big issue. We chose 4 dishes for a couple and we were still hungry but we werent interested in the other offerings on the menu... Everything was tasty, well prepared with unusual foods. If you are open-minded and open-minded, you will have a great evening. We were offered a sunflower cookie for dessert... We went elsewhere to end our evening ;)
Best place in town
Disappointed with our last visit to LEpi. We are a few couples who have been meeting there for dinner for several years and this was our worst visit to date. Far from what we have experienced in the past at this restaurant. Slow service and little presence during the meal. The flavors were mostly there but not at the level of what we have experienced there in the past. Some plates were not as described (example tile in the description of a plate but absent from the 3 plates received from this dish.) The atmosphere remains good. Small, pleasant restaurant. Unfortunately, we are considering not going back there again. 3 couples at $200 each, its definitely not worth that price for the experience.
Excellent service. Attentive staff. Delicious meal.
Carefully prepared and presented dishes, good selection of wines by the glass and very good service! Were going back there for sure.
Super nice experience of sharing dishes and alcohol from here and elsewhere (very nice discoveries). Vincent and his acolytes are all very friendly and proud of their menu, their art and their wine/alcohol list!. We had been recommended by a friend who also liked it. Great evening of discoveries. My favorite (and it wasnt even me who chose this dish!): smoked beetroot... delicious. Even my boyfriend who hates vegetables loved it. I recommend for an evening with friends or a couple. Relaxed atmosphere and small, intimate restaurant.
Very good restaurant, using local foods. Located in the heart of Trois-Rivière, the team is warm.
We loved the experience. Everything was more than excellent and the team is great. We will return without hesitation.
Small, friendly restaurant full of discoveries that will not disappoint. To discover
Everything is fukin delicious. Beautiful natural wine pacing. The beets are to be pitched into the walls. 10/10 will crash again.
Great ! Very warm welcome, original and good dishes
Great service, excellent dishes, I recommend Ricard de Montréal as a digestive to complete the experience!
To amaze and awaken your taste buds...great place, beautiful wine cellar, charming and eating at the counter is a great experience!
Our experience last night was a revelation! Exceptional quality of dishes and extraordinary flavors. In addition to excellent, friendly service. Its our new favorite place!
Very good and very warm, friendly atmosphere
A beautiful little gem in Trois-Rivières that ticks all the boxes: delicious food, great selection of alcohol, excellent service and warm atmosphere. I will definitely come back!!!
Very good and excellent service, but portions too small for the price, tapas style.
Tasty market cuisine, great service and an impressive wine selection (natural, local, small batches, name it).
Dinner before Cirque du Soleil show Saturday evening...more than disappointing. Second course served 45 minutes after the first, cold and with the sauce missing in some cases. Being told at 7:50 a.m. that we had to leave without coffee or dessert because the other service started at 8:00 p.m. even though we had waited so long through no fault of our own. Lack of staff or I dont really know but neither the flavors, nor the service, nor the quality were there. We will no longer return to this restaurant which otherwise had a good reputation for me before.
The service unfortunately deteriorated as the evening progressed. Order several starters/main courses served in 2 courses. 1st service super fast. 2nd service seems to have been forgotten (waiting 45 min. or more while people who arrived after us were served faster than us.)
Evening that lived up to my expectations in this little refreshment bar! The dishes are based on fresh, local ingredients, all beautifully presented and tasty. Favorite for the zucchini fritters and black sea bass! Our server was friendly and gave us good advice. Several choices of wines by the glass and menu that changes with the seasons. I recommend if you are in the neighborhood!
Nice neighborhood restaurant. Original recipes, beautiful portions and excellent service. I highly recommend it.
Great experience, really delicious but the portions are very small
Theres better
A 5/5 meal . But for $218, we expect a more present service . The minimum would be to come and find out that everything is to our liking, and that we are not missing anything . Service 2/5
Duo of chef and sommelier owners Warm and friendly place Quality of products and exquisite flavors at the rendezvous
Very nice experience. Small, cozy restaurant, impeccable service and tasty dishes! THANKS
What a great culinary experience it was insanely good with dishes that awaken the senses and always make you want more. Thank you Simon and Emmanuelle and the whole team! Looking forward to seeing you again... without curfew!
An exceptional menu and the most courteous and friendly service! My favorite restaurant in the whole big city of Trois-Rivières
Always a pleasure :)!!!
Beautiful atmosphere and very friendly service.
Very good restaurant to discover, we were pleasantly surprised by the menu and the flavors of the dishes. Well done to the chef, it s different and delicious!!!!
Excellent service and impeccable food, we will definitely return
Superb experience for lunch. Pleasant service. Menu full of flavors.
Excellent, original recipes, very successful blends of tastes
Very good, interesting menu. Good service. Im going back.
The menu may seem surprising, but the flavors and quality are remarkable. The service is exceptional.
Interesting blends of flavors with quality dishes. We had a really pleasant experience.
Good products, well-cooked food and a lovely, relaxed atmosphere we ll come back!
Really good
Different restaurant in Trois-Rivières, exceptional food, combining several flavors! And delicious privately imported wines! Friendly and friendly service!
Refined and always amazing for the taste buds, the à la carte dishes always leave us with a taste of we want to come back ! The staff is professional and accessible, I recommend the epi to anyone who wants to celebrate a special moment in a relaxed atmosphere
Excellent dining experience that takes you out of your comfort zone. Excellent value for money
Very good service and excellent food!!! I recommend this restaurant to everyone!
For the pleasure of flavors and eating differently. Great place!!
Wow! Great discovery! The team was great, the food and wine pairing delicious! I recommend it, a little gem in Trois-Rivières
Excellent!
Great food & great service
So good. Certainly one of the best restaurants in TROIS RIVIÈRES. Super friendly and professional service!!! To discover again and again.
We were really charmed by this restaurant! Passing through 3R on a cold February evening, our options were limited as we do not eat (if possible) animal products. At Epi, not only did we have . professional and friendly service but superb dishes that are really interesting, original and balanced. They have great vegetarian options and for carnivores, so many mouth-watering options. Bonus, very reasonable prices, we didnt pay attention to the prices throughout our selections and for a cocktail + a beer, 3 dishes to share and a large dessert to share, we came away with a meal at $80 for 2, tips (15% included)! We highly recommend!
Delicious!!
Definitely one of the best restaurants in Trois-Rivières!! A big 5 out of 5! The service is great! The food is original, surprising and very tasty! The quality far exceeds the price! I would definitely go back!
Thank you very much xx
A place to discover! Everything is excellent and the service is great. Take a seat at the counter, the owner is really friendly and when he explains his dishes to you you just want to order everything.
Good food, good combination of flavors, I really recommend it. Lovely welcome and nice attention with bubbles for our wedding anniversary
Having come to this restaurant by chance on the advice of passers-by, we were won over by the dishes offered and the kindness of the waiter. the little extra is the very good value for money of the food thank you for everything.
A completely surprising culinary experience, its a superb discovery. We would give it more than 5 out of 5 if it were possible.
One of the best restaurants in the world.
Excellent, good value for money
Air conditioning missing
Quality of dishes (tapas type) is excellent! It truly is a culinary experience. Service and welcome to be perfect.
Very good food and very interesting wines But sloooooooooooow service.
Its excellent.
One of the most interesting restaurants in Mauricie. Excellent cuisine. Lots of veggie choices. Nice wine list. Very relaxed place, good atmosphere, good music. Excellent staff.
A perfect refreshment bar. Excellent value for money. Excellent seasonal food. Excellent choice of wine by the glass and service.
The portions are very small given the price... But the flavors are good... The drinks are also very expensive given their small quantity... I will certainly not return to this restaurant...
A stop you wont regret!
Really charming place to discover. The staff is super friendly. The dishes were all tasty and made from fresh, local ingredients. There is also a nice selection of wine and beer. A place that is now a must for me in Trois-Rivières
Succulent dishes, great wine list and attentive service!
Expensive for what you eat
Very good restaurant, inventive cuisine but the service disappointed me!
A beautiful place to discover. Very warm staff.
Excellent restaurant where you will have the chance to taste dishes that are off the beaten track
Original menu, privately imported wines and magnificent decor. Falling for something!
A must in the region for good food and a perfect atmosphere!
I loved the experience and the service is excellent!
Very interesting as a little bar. Inventive, daring and tasteful cuisine.
Place to discover. It s a three-river must-see.
Surprising
Bel endroit, plutôt sympathique. Points forts: la nourriture servie est le fruit dune belle créativité. Nous avons bien mangé. Le chef nhésite pas à partager ses conseils, sa passion. Points faibles: la musique était plutôt inappropriée, stressante, et un peu forte. Nous aurions peut-être dû payer un peu moins au final, la facture me semblait un peu salé.
The food was sureal I really enjoyed my experience there.
Good mix of flavor and texture, well-constructed menu
First experience, very satisfying, even surprising! We will come back!!!
Its quite good and original as a menu, but expensive, narrow & uncomfortable furniture, and I was left wanting more.
