ABOUT US Epicurean is Canada’s leading digital marketing agency specializing in restaurants — and only restaurants. We work with 40+ of the country’s most recognized brands, from award-winning fine dining rooms to fast-growing casual concepts. Our focus is simple: harness the power of social media to fill more seats and attract more diners, every day.

OUR STORY
& MISSION

Epicurean was founded in 2023 by Brandon Kay and Alessandro Rocca, two lifelong hospitality professionals from different worlds. Brandon is the former Head of Partnerships @ TasteMontreal, where he grew his own brand to 200k followers and helped hundreds of restaurants grow through their digital platform. Alessandro was raised inside one of Canada’s most iconic Italian restaurants, mastering every role from the kitchen to management. Both saw the same problem: incredible restaurants struggling to thrive in a digital-first world. Together, they created Epicurean — Canada’s leading digital marketing agency built for restaurants to fill seats, grow loyal followings, and build brands guests can’t stop talking about.
Through restaurant-tailored strategies, thumb-stopping content, and viral influencer collaborations – we harness the power of social media to get diners through your door.

Strategy Consulting

Content creators are creative minds, but rarely data-driven marketing minds. With exponential competition on social media – following trends and winging your content is not a strategy, it is the bare minimum. At Epicurean, we’ve built >400 content calendars for 40 of the top restaurants in Toronto. We are the rare breed that bridges that gap between creative mastery and marketing excellence.

Social Media Management

Tactical copywriting, rigid content approval, and data-driven publishing are at the core of how we operate your socials. We pair this with daily audience interaction — DMs, comments, and stories — to keep your brand top of mind and top of feed. With targeted paid ads layered in, we turn your social platforms into a consistent revenue stream.

Influencer Partnerships

Epicurean works with 100+ of the top restaurant-influencers in Toronto. By pre-vetting them on ROI-data and brand alignment – we ensure your influencer collaborations drive new diners, every time. Influencers typically charge a hefty fee for their services – but with Epicurean’s network – you’ll work with them on an exclusively complimentary basis. You won’t find another agency with this competitive advantage. Anywhere.
