This is my actual second visit here at the Epicenter. Last year I only experienced the theater. Now since I came for another visit on business in NC, I had to try out the restaurant.
I came here with a couple of business partners after our final day training. First we decided to watch a movie, but the next show we wanted was an hour and a half away. With the time to kill, conveniently upstaris was the Mez restaurant. There was not much of a crowd here so we were seated very quickly. The decor of the restaurant had a nice upscale setting. Our waitress was very friendly and prompt bring our drink orders.
So for lunch, I decided to go for their Grilled Butchered Steak and order it medium rare. When I got my entree it had a nice presentation to it. The steak was cooked to my perfection. It was not rubbery or burnt. The truffle fries complemented the dish very well. Visiting from the Bay Area, the price for the this dish was very reasonable. Over there the dish can be priced two or three times higher.
Overall, the staff, food, and restaurant ambiance were great. The is one of the places that I look forward to when I'm in Charlotte.
