EPIC CHOPHOUSE              (4.6 ⭐/ 980)
I took my family to this great restaurant for father's day, our reservation was for 2:30 pm. The service was awesome and the food was delicious. We got the combination hot and cold bar along with our entree. On the bar were salad items of course, seafood including fried lobster tails, fresh oysters, sliced tuna filet with wasabi an a choice of chip or toast points, fried pickles, fresh cooked buffalo wings, a dessert section, and an antipasto spread. Our food was delicious their service personnel were amazing and thoughtful an answered any questions we had.
My parents have a bit of trouble with the stairs, it was great because one of the very helpful staff directed them to the elevator since our party was to be seated on the second floor. This place truly has it all. Thank you Epic Chophouse for your wonderful food and service, we will be back!

Located: 104 S Main St, Mooresville, NC 28115
