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!

Comfort food: Uncle Maddio's Pizza Joint












Uncle Maddio's Pizza Joint

Is spectacular, great food, great service and pizza that looks and taste like real pizza from an authentic Pizzeria even though its a chain restaurant. Everything is fresh, from the daily made in-store pizza dough, to the selection of veggies cleaned and prepped every morning. Their pizza has 3 different crust options, 6 different sauces, and over 45 meat, veggie, and cheese toppings to choose from. They have gluten free, vegetarian, and vegan options which is always nice. You talk directly to your pizza maker to build the perfect pizza, or try one of the signature pies, salads, or sandwiches. Below is the menu. I thoroughly enjoyed myself, and you will too. There are a few locations in the Charlotte area, but if you check the website (link below) you can find one of these great pizza joints in your neck of the woods. Enjoy!

Comfort food: WORLD OF BEER






I decided to try " WORLD OF BEER " and I am glad that I did, they have great service a warm eclectic atmosphere an a awesome menu, with over 500 plus beers from around the world, the food is delicious and it would rival some of Charlotte's snooty white-tablecloth establishments that claim a superior culinary experience while draining your wallet and serving you tasteless over thought cuisine. World of Beer is located in the Epicentre Uptown, its not just a waterhole for drinkers that serves"bar-food"it offers you a feeling of upscale dinning, a host of international spirits with a downtown hospitality. I enjoyed myself.

A taste of Home: the Korner Restaurant & Catering








When I go to Virginia there is a little restaurant that I have to stop in every time and get a Korner Burger, the food is awesome, the service is great, and the atmosphere is simply "Home." I'm a big fan of everything they make  my favorites include the breakfast, the One-eyed bacon cheeseburger with fries, and the foot-long hot dog. If you are ever in Charlottesville Virginia check out The Korner Restaurant & Catering  415 Roosevelt Brown Blvd, Charlottesville, VA 22903

Comfort food: One Eyed Bacon Bull Burger








One Eyed Bacon Bull Burger, is a staple in our family it's a piece of fried bologna with melted cheese, a fried runny egg (the egg is the eye) on top covered with bacon, below lettuce tomato, mustard and mayo on any bread you like, I suggest a nice toasted Jewish Rye, a bag of chips, and a cold soda. Comfort food at its best. Enjoy.
