“It is quite an honor, and humbling, to even be considered by Gayot as one of the Top 40 in the U.S.  My goal is to put Columbus, GA on the map as the next great food town. At the end of the day, we are only as good as the last experience we have provided,” Chef Jamie Keating.

Located in the heart of Uptown Columbus, Epic is situated on the banks of the revitalized Chattahoochee River.  It is a gorgeous, artisan, yet warm and intimate space, surrounded by beautiful artwork from local artist, Teil Duncan.

“I have been cooking since I was 15 years old.  I believe a great meal is not only about the food, but also the wine, the conversation and the people you share it with.  My wife and children are the most important ingredients in my life.  They are what inspire me.  Epic is about my family.  Food should be both emotional and comforting.  Epic tells my story, my love of food and people..it is a journey of life experiences and triumphs.  My life is Epic…” Chef Jamie Keating
