A one-and-done multi level city center in the absolute heart of Charlotte, the EpiCentre hosts about what feels like a million restaurant options (some easy, others themey, and most upscale and trendy) and surprisingly pretty much zero clothing shops or boutiques. I was very surprised by this, as the design of the EpiCentre is very familiar to other newer downtown gathering places, yet did not provide much in the retail department as the others do.
None the less, I think they have the restaurant venue down for sure. So many unique and special places to choose from! The place collects young professionals, singletons, and beautiful people and has the vibe of being a great place to meet new people. When we first visited this past weekend, there was an awesome beer tent sans tent event going on which was a fun surprise.
On top of everything, the security team here is amazing! They are very present which makes the place feel so safe and clean, but also laid back and friendly. I would feel comfortable walking around at 2 AM the way they handle their business.
