Epic Roasthouse, A Disappointment. My party of 6 had dinner reservations at 6:30. We were seated immediately and proceeded to check out the menu. Waitress took our order for appetizers first. We nibbled on our first course with the book-like menus on our laps or on the table. It wasn't until we were well into our first course that the waitress came around to take our main menu order. My husband asked for the prime rib in which the waitress said they had run out. My sister requested the whole fish and was also told the same. How could you run out of these two main items so early in the evening? First of all, the waitress should have alerted us ahead of time that these two menu items have run out. Instead, the two of them had to go back to the menu to relook what their second choice would be. Then, waitress came back and said she had good news. There was one fish left and my sister could have it. Another table decided not to order the fish.

The meat items were disappointing. I ordered the lamb. My 3 riblets of lamb were very fatty. It was a good thing I wasn't terribly hungry. My husband's burger was overcooked. The ribeye for two was nothing spectacular and we all said we could have done a better job cooking this at home.

I wouldn't call this restaurant a steakhouse by any means. It's our first dining experience at Epic and our last!…

Epic Roasthouse The worest food I have had in months. Epic Roasthouse From the outside Epic looks like it would offer guest?s a memorable dinning experience We recently had a group of clients come into town for dinner. What better way to show them some of the best food in San Francisco but to go to an upscale restaurant with a great view of the bay.

We had a party of 8 on a weekday, reservations were fairly easy as we were able to book them that day.

Pulling back the large doors we entered Epic. We were met by some friendly host?s that lead us to the back of the restaurant. As I was making my way to our table I started to wonder if I was still in Epic or a Big Boy restaurant in Florida.

I had to delete a whole pargraph from this review as it was to long with to many bad issues

For diner I ordered the Whole Fish along with Truffle Whipped Potatoes ($9), Epic Mac and Cheese ($9) Truffle Cauliflower (9) spinach(9) & Brussels sprouts.

While waiting for our dinner to arrive the waiter had began to pull our wine glasses with out even asking if we would like wine with a dinner. ( we all wanted wine with dinner)

Once my meal arrived the whole fish needed to be de-boned. I wish the waiter would have told me this earlier as I would have never order this dish because the entire time I was pulling bones from my meal. The brussel sprouts & cauliflower were hard as a rock the Mac & cheese was taste less how can you mess up Mac and Cheese and spinach as just low quality.

For desert I ordered the cookie plate with a cold glass of vanilla bean milk. Thinking a cookie plate would have fresh out of the oven chocolate chip cookies not my Aunt Helens cookie assortment she bought at Sam?s club left over from 2 years ago.

This restaurant is *WAY* over priced for what they offer & the service was just plain bad. I have had better service at local fast food places. I eat out in San Francisco 5 nights a week and this place is just a poor waste of great real estate and our time.

I will not come back to this restaurant.…

Food is mediocore, service is average, prices outrageous, service charges should be illegal.. Too expensive, even for the good views of the Bay Bridge and Oakland. For better and less expensive food, try any of the Ferry Building restaurants. The Ferry Building places all offer abundant on-the-water tables, no ridiculous service fees, with benefit of cheap parking. Food is comparable in quality. Cost at Ferry Building is much less and servers over there are much more friendly. Enjoy the city, do not waste your money or your time on this fake palace with mediocore food, high prices and undisclosed service charges.…
