Epic Restaurant

Wow! What an amazing experience!! We came for our 25yr wedding anniversary because Jamie was the one who catered our wedding. We were hoping for a fun experience and our expectations were blown away. We did the Chef's Table experience and it went far beyond fun and engaging. Jamie, Caleb and Michael (I hope I got all of the names right) provided amazing food and engagement for us. The explanations of the dishes were clear. The depth and profiles of flavors for each dish were amazing! I still cant decide which dish I like the most. It was an 8-course meal and experience. My wife and I ended up being the only ones this night. From start to finish, Daniel, Troy and the rest of the staff were attentive to every detail, knowledgeable, fun, and engaging. Jamie and his team of chefs delivered on wonderful flavors, great texture combinations, and beautiful dishes. I would give this 6 stars if I had an option! Thank you Jamie, Melissa, and the Epic Team for making our celebration night so special. It was a night we'll never forget!!

Epic catered an event for me at my house and Wow. Not only was the food Fantastic but the staff was truly wonderful. My guests raved about the food but also how attentive and fun the staff was. They jumped in and handled everything smoothly while joining our theme and having fun with us. I would highly recommend Epic and Jamie Keating for any event.

Epic truly lives up to its name. I booked the Chef’s Table experience and it was unforgettable from start to finish. Every course felt like its own masterpiece — beautifully plated, creative, and full of flavor. You can tell the chef puts real passion and intention into every dish. The service was top-tier too. The team made the whole night feel special, personal, and perfectly paced. I loved hearing the stories behind each course and watching the dishes come together right in front of us. If you’re looking for a luxury dining experience in Columbus that’s intimate, elevated, and absolutely worth it — Epic’s Chef’s Table is the one. I’d do it again in a heartbeat.

Service was incredible! Very welcoming and accommodating. Went in with my fiancée to try out the 4 course meal- safe to say it was incredible. The meats cutting board was one of my favorites Ive had. The servers gave a detailed explanation for each dish and answered any questions we had.

I surprised my husband for his birthday with this most excellent choice in dining. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with smiles and amazing service. Every single dish was outstanding. The “Georgia on my plate” charcuterie was a delight of assorted meats and cheeses, and our Chapter 1 through our finale of dessert, was nothing short of spectacular. Me and the hubby are foodies and hands down cannot wait to return for another Epic experience.

Epic Restaurant is not just dinner—it’s an experience, and one I’m genuinely grateful we have here in Columbus. We dined at the chef’s table on New Year’s, and from start to finish the evening felt intentional, warm, and deeply personal. The food is clearly prepared by people who love what they do—thoughtful, beautifully executed, and served by a staff who knows the menu, the story behind it, and treats you like a guest rather than a transaction. Yes, Epic is an investment, but so are the things that matter; I believe in gifts of experience because memories last, and this is the kind of night you remember. The service is genuine and unpretentious, and Jamie, the owner, is both incredibly talented and refreshingly funny—you can feel his heart in the place. If you’re looking for a quick, inexpensive bite, this may not be it, but if you value craft, hospitality, and a true dining experience, Epic delivers.

Epic says it all. I've traveled the world and this is some of the best food I've ever had, hands down. Everything was cooked to perfection. The portion sizes were spot on and every course left you thrilled and excited for the next. I can't recommend the "Wellington Our Way" enough. I've had beef Wellington at Gordon Ramsay Steak in Vegas and this beats it hands down. Logan was a fabulous and knowledgeable waiter and the rest of the staff was amazing. If you're looking for the perfect spot for a very special occasion, this is the place to go. I said "yes"!!

My husband and I went there for a date night and it did not disappoint. Everything from the service to the food was phenomenal. Even their mocktails were delicious. Thank you for an extraordinary date night. I hope to come back and experience it again

Walking into a restaurant that gives the customer their full undivided attention from the Host to the bartender ( Daniel) and without say our waiter( Troy) any others that I did not get their names. The bar has a well stocked Tequila selection. I had a shot of Clave Azule plata and my wife had a Mojito that was made to perfection. We had there 5 course meal that had you intrigued with the first plate until desert. The dinner was amazingly fresh and delicious. I'm really shocked to see Epic only has a 4.5 rating. I our world of traveling and eating at fine restaurants Epic in Columbus is by far a 5 star establishment. Thank you

Amazing food, great environment. More than just food, it's an experience. Jamie Keating does nothing except exceptional.

Top drawer dining. We had a dinner for 30+ two weeks ago.. it was easy to schedule and their execution was flawless. Recommended!

What and absolutely amazing experience. We brought our family here when our son graduated ABOLC at Ft. Benning and what a once in a lifetime experience. We are used to NYC fine dining establishments and this was right in the same strata for us. The service was impeccable, they placed us in the owners "family" booth in the back and we were treated like royality from start to finish...the service was out of this world. Every course was better than the next all the way thru the "family style" desert art show they put on with us with the saucier and pastry chef.....the evening was capped off with a tour of the kitchen that was right out of "The Bear". By far worth the trip.

Had a wonderful group dining experience here this weekend. The reputation for this place is deserved and I really had one of the best dinners that I've had in a long time here. I felt like I was in the Bear (tv show) with the changing menu (we did pre-fix). We got a tour of the kitchen afterwards and got a glimpse of the whole operation as well as getting to see the special chef's table (seems like it'd be a cool experience and potentially worth the extra cost). I think what I enjoyed most here was the unique flavors and takes on traditional dishes. I loved the beat salad for example (so fresh and so clean as OutKast put it best) and with the mashed potato's that came with the short rib (so tender and flavorful as well), the mustard flavor and other ingredient that I don't typically like, only enhanced the dish for me. The potato soup was solid and very creamy. We also had the duck, which was tender, and delicious. I was glad to share dishes and "game the system." I had both the old fashioned and tried the old fashioned girl and both were good. I meant to get the smoky old fashioned because I saw someone else getting this and it looked delicious but they thought I wanted the old fashioned girl, which also has a smokey flavor. The dessert chocolate-e muffin concoction was rich and tasty. The chef actually came out during our visit and sat with us and jokingly tried to order food from his wait staff. I enjoyed this comedic act and felt like there was a real personal touch to our meal. My only real disappointment was our check-out experience where we couldn't get our credit card back and it took almost 30 minutes to actually pay and leave. The whole meal was also expensive but I knew that going in and knew we were paying for a special, unique experience.

The appetizer board and entrees were amazing. Very clean restaurant and great service

Celebrating our daughter's birthday here. We reserved the back dining room and were treated like royalty. The 7 course meal was exquisite. The best 3 star Michelin in Columbus.

Epic epicurean experience. The tastes, the service and ambiance are stellar. The staff was helpful in accommodating sauces on the side and answering our questions on the menu, checking for food allergies/sensitivities, refilling our glasses. My belly was full and I was feeling great after the meal. Any leftovers were nicely packed to go. Not a divine morsel was wasted. Heaven forbid!

We celebrated our anniversary and we loved everything about this restaurant, from ambiance, service, food, etc. It is on the pricier end, but I think it's well worth it. Their menu changes often which I love. We will definitely return. This place is by far my favorite restaurant in Columbus.

Wow! I just returned to Columbus after 10 years. I first visited Epic in 2013 and delighted to see in 2024 Epic continues to thrive. My experience... Logan, front of house Bar Manager, I compliment his role. He is incredibly knowledgeable about the cocktails, wine and after dinner drinks. The wait staff are on top of clearing and serving. The food.. I had the vegetarian three course menu. It was amazing! I have travelled to nearly every continent and eaten in Michelin Star restaurants in major cities around the globe. Epic places Columbus on the map, the place to visit in the South. Great job and high kudos to the kitchen team, the bartender and the wait staff. I felt so comfortable as a single party patron. A must for any business traveler. I will visit every week! Happy eating and cocktailing to all!

This was our first time at Epic and it was as incredible as we thought it'd be. We started off with great cocktails. The one pictured was called "Island Ice" and came out with a smoking effect. It was served by the bartender who actually came to our table. On a side note, this was one of the coolest things to us. Everyone was all hands on deck. Our server was awesome and checked on us constantly, but we were given our bread by one person, entree by another, dessert by more. It was awesome that it was an "all hands on deck" kind of feel. At no point did we not have something we needed. Of course the food was excellent, but it was also cool how they made it a "chapter" and even brought the silverware in a book. The fruit was fresh and sweet. The seafood was a hit, and we were amazed by the intricate designs of the plate. There were awesome touches like whipped feta, banana fritters, and fried sweet potatoes that really stood out. The chef came out and chatted for a bit, and it was the epitome of fine dining. We will 1000% be back, and I can truly say it was worth every penny. This is a gem in Columbus, and it lives up to the hype.

The Medium Rare, filet of beef. Presented with a roundish, very thick, filet. That takes professional skill to hit a Medium Rare. They didn't. Deep, blood rare, after 1/2" in. Obviously, no real skill involved. Ok, this is not a Michelin rated restaurant. But, the cook should know the attention needed to hit medium rare and how to accomplish it. Especially when a filter is almost round in shape. The 4 course serving at $75 is an appropriate amount. And the other servings were above average. I would order the 4 course again but stay away from the filet of beef offering.

Intimate setting to have a fancy dinner out with your loved one. Service was superb. I noticed that we had multiple people taking care of our table, which was not a problem at all. All staff were very attentive and professional. We ordered from the 4 course menu: 1. Coastal Seafood Ceviche - It had a nice little kick to it. I just came back from Mexico last month and this was one of the many dishes that I missed. Perfect dish for a starter. 2. Octopus Togarashi and Pei Mussels - I loved loved loved the octopus!! I've never had such tender and savory-smokey like flavored octopus. I was expecting some spice from the togarashi but really didn't taste any (but it was still very delicious)! Each ingredient on the dish had a very distinct taste. I would say that the mussels were a little more on the salty side, which became even more overpowering when eaten with the wasabi tobiko. 3. Plantation Quail and Sausage Roulade - A southern dish with a Mediterranean twist. Loved it. 4. "Coffee and Doughnuts" - A simple dessert with doughnut bites that paired very well with coffee panna cotta.

Delightful experience from service, food, to ambiance. We had yellowtail, foie gras, Caesar salad, strip, mahi and scallop, and duck confit - all were perfectly prepared with dynamic flavors and cohesiveness. The desserts were a dream - pana cotta, pecan cake - presented beautifully and absolutely delicious. The amazing cocktails and superb service topped off our night. Overall, wonderful experience and we will definitely be back

The staff creates an amazing dining experience and is very attentive. Try the vintage cocktail menu. This drink has a smoke bubble!

I have been to the restaurant a few times but last night (for my birthday) did the chef's table. Phenomenal from the food (caviar, pheasant, lamb, dessert) to staff and the ambiance it was a 10 star night. The experience is what I will remember for the rest of my life. They even put hip hop music on for me. I think this 71 year old shocked them. My nephew and I had the time of our life. I cannot say enough about Epic and will do the chef table again. What a night!

I'll start with a positive! Service was great - at least at the beginning! My husband had the tuna tartare, lobster bisque, duck, and banana dessert. I had beet tartare (it was very...earthy as beets are but it literally was just raw beets with a stale cracker on top?), Bigoli pasta (that was cold, a little hard, and the sausage was meh), NY Strip (steak itself was decent but the sides were laughable with literally no flavor), and the chocolate torte tasted like a little debbie met a sad brownie. The berries on it were fresh though! The lobster bisque was also good. My husband said his duck was also decent but the veggies on the side were basically raw (not sure if that's on purpose but the sides were rock hard potatoes & peas). For a price tag of over $200, all we got was some giggles about how bad it was, unfortunately.

This restaurant is Amazing. the atmosphere is so classy yet very welcoming, the food is Fantastic and the staff is always the best! I love this restaurant!

Amazing dinner and service. If in Columbus and have a special occasion to celebrate--Go There!

I can't say enough great things about this restaurant, Jamie and the rest of the staff. If we lived closer this would be a regular restaurant for us. On our last visit we found out the cater! I'll be looking into them for our next big gathering! We've eaten at the chefs table three times and each time has been amazing!! I've tried so many great dishes & new food, that I would have normally never tried! The staff is amazing and makes you feel like part of the family! I highly recommend the dining room or the chefs table! You won't regret it!

Fantastic dinner at the kitchen table. We learned the ins and outs of the restaurant and how they deliver such amazing service. The staff was wonderful and worked together to give us the most perfect evening. We had a dietary request for one of us "pescatarian". They took the challenge on at the very last minute as we called an hour before we wanted to head over. We will definitely be back and look forward to sharing this epic restaurant with others.

For a pretty mediocre looking place and less than average dressed employees their standards were a little ridiculous lol. Came in to celebrate my girlfriend's birthday and was turned away at the door for having a hoodie on. The hoodie was all black with a Nike check that's it. No profnaity no nothing, and they refused to accept money because of that lmao. I've eaten at Michelin starred restaurants with better amenities and any place worth its salt only care about demeanor and how you act. Absolutely ridiculous.

During my very first visit to Columbus, I wanted to make it memorable. I researched some restaurants online and found Jamie's Epic restaurant! I called and made a reservation for 5:00pm the same day. I ordered from the Pre-Fixe Menu which included three courses. I started with the Compressed Watermelon Salad, followed by the Braised Beef Short Ribs and topped everything off with their Chocolate Opera Cake. The attention to detail that went into everything was obvious. They care about the quality of their food and did an outstanding job putting it all together. Of note, I also ordered their Preface Sampler which included Bacon and Eggs with Ginger Ketchup, Tempura Gouda, Shrimp Lumpia, and the Tuna Tacos. My mouth is watering right now as I remember how amazing all of it was. Oh, they also provided delicious baguettes with various butters and an olive tapenade. My favorite with all of this was their Tomato Jam...It was AMAZING. From my experience making a reservation, to the service I received in the dining room, to the quality and presentation of the food, I had a marvelous experience. They even invited me on a kitchen tour! Which I totally did and loved. Epic was truly epic. They deserve the 4 diamond rating that they have with AAA. Great work Jamie and all of your staff. Thank you for making my first experience in Columbus memorable. I recommend putting this restaurant on your bucket list!

The atmosphere is fabulous. We enjoyed not having loud music playing where you can have a relaxing conversation with your party. And they have a dress code. The staff were very attentive, but not annoying. Was some what disappointed with each course that we chose having a very sweet taste and our main course being cold to barely warm. The desserts were very light and excellent to finish the meal. Still would recommend for a special occasion. We will be back sometime in the near future.

I grew up in the South. The Deep South. I left when I was a young man. Now, I visit episodically. And when I visit I often feel like a person venturing into a museum - inquisitive, but detached. However, my last couple of trips to the South have shown me a new side to my home. There is a crazy rich culture of food evolving in the darnedest of places. Columbus, GA and Epic Restaurant epitomizes this fantastic foodie culture. I so enjoyed my meal. I sat at the bar and swilled some great wine with a nice assortment of small plates - I sort of made my own tasting menu - and a relaxed atmosphere. It was awesome! I can't speak highly enough for what the owners, chef and team and front end of the house are doing with their amazing corner of the world. They have found a way to blend the wonders of modern foodie delights with great southern charm and hospitality . . . and it totally works!

Let me preface this by saying that my review is only about the chef's table, as I have not dined here any other time. That being said, it was so fun. Super pricey but my husband and I are all about dining experiences so it was worth it for us. We went all out and had the included wine pairings as well. We loved being back in the kitchen and having the dishes really explained to us as they were being made. The experience was phenomenal and if you have the time and money, I'd recommend it 100%.

My husband and I were so happy when we found this gem in the downtown area of Columbus Georgia. Came here for dinner with my husband while visiting the area, and we were pleasantly surprised at how nice the interior was. We parked a little far away and walked, but they had parking spaces next to the restaurant. We made a reservation for weekday dinner, and there was not too many customers yet for early dinner around 5:30. Did the course menu, and I have to say the shrimp and grits, foie gras with bacon, dessert menu and everything was fantastic. I have attached the photos, and it will make more sense as to how nice the presentation was with good portions. Not to mention the service was also excellent and the price is very reasonable. We didn't come here for any occasion, but I think this will be a cute spot to come for an occasion if you happen to be in the area :)

Food, service...this place is the best restaurant in town and it's not close. It is pricy, so it's only a special occasion place for us.

What a wonderful, pleasant surprise in a town where didn't expect much. From the great location and a warm and cool ambiance (warm booths and soft colors) to the exposed bricks our dinner started with a personal welcome by the co-owner. Food was delicious, service on-point and the pacing was perfect. Staff was attentive and hospitable. The wine list was sufficiently deep with broad regions covered. Delicious meal with good representation of regional food.

Went the Atlanta to see my son graduation from the Army Rangers and took him out to eat. The owners and staff were very friendly and made my son's experience awesome! The place was very elegant and very clean. The food experience was amazing and everything was delicious! We will definitely be back in October for his Ranger graduation ‍

We went to this place for my birthday and OMG, what an experience! Food was delicious and we asked for the server to pair drinks with each course for us, and he did an excellent job!! We also asked if we can split the drinks instead of 1 per person so we wouldn't get too tipsy since we have an infant to care for at home, and they provided the perfect amount of drinks for us. We half expected a ridiculous bill since we weren't choosing the alcohol ourselves, but it was incredibly reasonable for a high-end dining experience. It was also right next to the river which was a beautiful spot for some after-dinner pics. Definitely recommend coming here for a special occasion, and if you don't have a special occasion, make one up!! You need to come here!

Enjoyed lamb stew from Epic at home this evening. Delicious!!! Thanks Epic for your take/out provisions during this time of crisis!! Once again Epic comes thru for tonight also!! See the second photo !!

Exquisite food and staff! The coursed meals and cocktails were delightful! Don't miss this hidden gem!

Epic is by far the best restaurant and chief's table in not only Columbus, GA but in all of Georgia, period!!!

A truly magical experience every single time. Jamie sat and chatted with me for 30 minutes while I waited for my friends to arrive. Later he surprised me with a birthday desert. I can't wait to go back!

Epic is the right name for this place. Great ambiance, service, beverages and food. Downtown Columbus has so many restaurants to choose from but if you want the best, I believe that this is it! Short and sweet if you want to have a memorable evening, Epic is the place!

I can't sing the praises of this place enough! We (a hungry group of 6) were in from all over the country for Officer Candidate Graduation. We have different palates, yet we all left stuffed and happy - which isn't always common with a pre fixed menu at a fancy restaurant. Not only was the food superb and perfectly presented, but the staff were wonderful as well! If you ever find yourself near Columbus and are looking for a nice restaurant with delicious food, make a call here! You won't be disappointed.

Husband and I visited on our 1 year anniversary. I choose this spot out of all the other ones that were located in Uptown Columbus area because by Yelp pictures, it reminded me of the restaurants back home and it wasn't Southern food. I feel like every restaurant here since it is Columbus, GA has some type of Southern dish and I'm not really a fan of Southern food, sorry. Anyways, we made reservations and when we walked in I was really excited because the ambiance was really nice, the place seemed well decorated and it was fancy. So far, being in Columbus, I have not found ONE restaurant that I liked so it was a big deal. We didn't even know this place was a four diamond restaurant until we saw the award on their wall. The service was amazing and I even told them I am 20 wks pregnant so they know I can't have certain things and they took care of that in every dish. The bartender even made me a non alcoholic beverage which was surprisingly good! I drank all of it! They give you bread and butter while you wait which was good, we wanted to eat more but had to tell ourselves to put it down so we can finish our main entrees. My hubby and I shared the butternut squash soup which was so good! My hubby ordered their lamb dish and I ordered the wagyu short ribs. For our anniversary dessert we chose the caramel apple cheesecake (this was the best part). Overall, I thought the food was pretty good for being a four diamond because we've been to places where they are four diamond and the outcome wasn't that great but this place was actually really good. I'm happy I found a place here that I actually liked and can go back too. Yay! :)

Fine dining, delightful staff and delicious food and perfect portions Went there for a date night and service was outstanding and can't praise food and service enough. Parking garage across the streets s restaurant is next to river where you can take a walk. Ordered mushrooms and eggs for appetizer, lamb chops and steak for mains, creme blureè for desserts and wine to go with. This will be a great memory of our date night with amazing food.

This is our all-time favorite restaurant in the United States. We love good food and like to try high-end restaurants wherever we visit. We found this place when we lived here a few years ago and have made it a point to squeeze it in our schedule every time we return to the area. The service is phenomenal. The chef is very good at his craft, but he is also a master at food service. The wait staff monitor the table closely and ensure that the entire experience is well-orchestrated for flawless service. The food is amazing. The menu rotates often, so we have never had the same meal twice. The chef puts together bold flavor combinations and executes it well every. Single. Time. We have never been disappointed with a meal or with the service we have had. Epic is a little pricey, especially when compared to the local area. However, given the quality of the food, the service and the atmosphere, the prices are completely fair and worth every penny. This is a perfect place for a romantic dinner date or a nice dinner out with friends.

Absolutely unprofessional behavior from the owner- completely rude and uncalled for. If you have an event beside this place, you will get screamed at for just walking past this restaurant? I didn't even know that was possible until it happened. Do not support as it is disgrace to the friendly atmosphere of Columbus. For an upscale restaurant, you'd figure they'd have more class.

My first trip to EPIC was definitely not my last! We were treated to dinner here with friends who go often. From our greeting at the hostess stand and impeccable table service, to the lively and animated conversation with Chef Jamie, the experience was wonderful. We ordered from a prix fixe menu and there was something to each of us between the 3-course and 5-course menus. My husband had lamb for the first time and since he's a fairly picky eater I was concerned that he might not enjoy it. But by the end of the evening he had pronounced it one of the best meals he'd ever eaten. The atmosphere is comfortable and inviting. The staff is friendly, the attentive service is rarely found in our area, and the food... oh, the food! Save up. Treat yourself. EPIC is a bit on the pricey side but it's worth every penny! You'll be glad you did!

Amazing place and great staff! This place is a hidden gem! From the outside it's not much to look at however inside it is beautiful and definitely a date night setting.

Highly recommend Epic for a social event or an intimate dinner for two. Jamie Keating is an artist with food, it's as beautiful as it is flavorful! He and his staff go out of their way to make you feel welcome and at home! I cannot say enough good things. We had a party of 50, and Epic did not disappoint! They made our holiday brunch truly special!

The food is fabulous! It is brought out in five coursed including the appetizer and the dessert. Staff are friendly and inviting. I would recommend anyone to try it at least once

My wife and I love this place. It's been our "go to" for celebrating special events and everything has always been amazing. Our last visit was a few weeks ago and it was as good as ever. You don't just get a great meal here you get a wonderful dining experience. Highly recommend.

This place is amazing. We have sat in the actual restaurant a few times and in the kitchen once and it was amazing each time. Chef Jamie is fantastic and him and his staff come up with the best dishes to cook no matter where you sit. If you want great food, you must try this place. If you want even better food, do the "Chef's Table" and let them surprise you with food and drink. You can't possibly be shy of absolutely amazed. I typically eat seafood when sitting in the restaurant and it has always been so perfectly cooked and fresh that I attempt to do it myself when I get home. Eat here and enjoy how amazing it is. Be ready to want to come back very soon though.

OMG...My husband and I celebrated our 37th year anniversary last night. He called and made a reservation for 5:30 on same day, recommended by our neighbor. From the moment we arrived we felt great being there, the staff made us feel welcomed. We ordered the 3 course meal each, my hubby got the filet mignon and I got the Mahi Mahi both very delicious. I have never had the most tasting grits with shrimp and spinach. To top it all he had the cheese cake dessert and I the pumpkin creme brûlée. The only way to describe it was " umm...heavenly delicious "! If we can say "Best restaurant experience and Best tasting food ever"! Great staff, never had to wait a moment as we always had someone coming over to check up on us, filling our glasses, clean plates, and bringing clean silverware for next course. Very well staffed. Definitely recommend EPIC

Oh, Epic Restaurant, I dream of you almost instantly when I leave your doors. I am from Massachusetts, one of the country's bastions of snobbery and I would say that this restaurant not only fit in but prosper and have a long life...but who would want to pay those kind of taxes anyway?! But, I digress. On to the juicy stuff. I have been here with my male half twice now for two very memorable meals in 2014. Our first was for Valentine's Day (we went the day after, but they were still doing V-Day things since V-Day was on a Friday), and the second meal was on March 15, 2014, in which I treated him for an unprecedented job promotion. Some things about EPIC: 1. Don't come here broke. This isn't McDonald's, and this isn't Country's BBQ. This is a culinary experience. So, don't be surprised when you see the prices. 2. Wear nice clothing. The waiters and waitresses are dressed nicely and you should be matching the environment. Read the doors before you enter the building. It's business casual or above. 3. The culinary team has been educated in culinary schools such as Culinary Institute of America, Le Cordon Bleu, and New England Culinary Institute. If something is not right with your meal, please be cordial to your server team and they will take care of it. 4. Be aware that there is a prix fixe menu time that you can take advantage of to not pay full price for the meal but come out being fed like a king and that includes appetizer, main course, and dessert for only $35 base price (of course if you want to add drinks and some sides it will start getting bigger, but holy moly there are some good items on that prix fixe menu). They offer the prix fixe menu only from Tuesday-Thursday 5:30-6:30pm and Friday-Saturday 5:00-6:00pm. Anyway, my experiences at EPIC have been absolutely amazing. They are professional in every way from cradle to grave. From the email interactions with Ms. Melissa Keating when asking for special requests (that they will do their best to accommodate) to the seating at the table and everything thereafter. I must mention that I think that it is wonderful that Chef Keating pays tribute to local Georgia products in the bread offerings with the EPIC butters which accompany the different breads. The olive tapenades and butters come from Georgia, which I think is very cool. We are a fan of the prix fixe menu because it offers a bigger bang for your buck and offers a great sampling of their bigger menu. They do not skimp on the portion sizes and we always make sure to order the truffle mac and cheese side to share. The pictures I have posted on Yelp of the meals I have had at EPIC are off of the prix fixe menu. There is nothing small about those portions! Looks at how amazing that meat looks, that artichoke bisque, that dessert, even the coffee presentation...I'm drooling just thinking about it. You know you're at a great place when they even make a big deal out of the coffee service. It's $5 for hot coffee, but it is French press and it is free refills and it is high quality coffee and you have a full array of sugars presented to you beautifully. Would you like a demitasse rock candy swizzle sugar stick, brown sugar cube, splenda, sweet and low, etc with your cream? That's what I am talking about! On the second visit to celebrate the big promotion, we were surprised by the arrangement the Keatings made for us to visit the kitchen at the end of the meal. I had been emailing Melissa extensively since before Valentine's Day and I had no idea that they had arranged that. It was so thoughtful of them and it made that meal even more special. We got to meet the people who made the meal, got to meet Chef Keating. Next on our list for EPIC...Chef's Table. Definitely on our list for this summer! Bravo, EPIC for opening this location in Columbus, GA and not in Atlanta or Savannah, where they are already saturated. Obrigada, merci, gracias!
