Very disappointing.
by xxJAYxx at Citysearch
Perhaps I am spoiled, coming from Philadelphia, a city with, in my opinion, some fantastic restaurants, and I went to this restaurant with those high expectations, based on reviews from some locals. I was however, greatly disappointed with the food/value/noise of Mickey and Mooch. The first thing you notice in the restaurant is the noise factor. The live music, heard throughout the entire restaurant, may be amusing to some, but it was a decided distraction and serious impediment to dinner conversation. The tables are very close together, so you can't help but be an unfortunate eavesdropper in the conversations of the surrounding tables. The appetizer came out when we were in the middle of our dinner, my steak ($37.00) was overdone, and the crabcake that I ordered with my steak was barely bigger than a silver dollar (for $8.50). The only redeeming aspect of the meal was the dessert- a piece of chocolate cake that had to weigh three pounds and will serve as an after-dinner treat for the next four nights. Again, perhaps I am expecting a higher-level of cuisine, but I was very disappointed in this restaurant, and hope that it is not indicative of the "fine dining" in the Lake Norman area.
- Pros: Food wasn't bad, in and of itself, but not a good value.
- Cons: Noisy, tables are too close together, service seems a step behind on everything.

Way too loud!

We couldn't hear ourselves think let alone talk to each other. I had no idea who our server was since 10 different people came to our table and we never saw the same person twice. Tables are too close together and it is miserable to get around the place. Drinks at the bar were weak and expensive. There are much better places for a good steak. The food was ok but the atmosphere ruined it anyway. Would not go back.
- Pros: none
- Cons: LOUD, CROWDED AND EXPENSIVE

AVOID if you want to hear each other!

I went here on a Monday night! You'd think it would be a little less crowded, Nope! It was like a Friday night. I couldn't even hear the person I was with for the loud roar. It was horrible. They had people stuffed in there like sardines and through out my entire meal I had the staff constantly smashing their bodies into my chair and back. The food was good but I expect a Monday night dinner that cost $65 for two people to be a little less chaotic! I won't go back! It was not a good dining experience at all! I like to talk during dinner not sit there quiet because I can't hear to have a conversation. I like to be relaxed too but the constant server with their rear end at the foot of my table almost touching isn't my cup of tea!
- Pros: Food is good but not worth the chaos.
- Cons: Loud, Tables too close, Reservations didn't help with seating.
