    a wrap of chicken and vegetables
    Sherri J.

    Happened to find this place in the mall food court and so glad I did. The Greek salad was huge and amazing! Tons of lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, feta cheese, Greek olives, red onions, peppers and grilled chicken. It was served with pita bread , tzatziki and Greek dressing. The next time I am in the area I will definitely eat here! Service was friendly and fast.

    The cheese looks like some sort of imitation plastic cheese. The burger is like I'm eating something left over from last weeks menu.
    Thomas A.

    The burger feels like it came from last weeks menu. It is very hard and chewy. I wasn't sure but I ordered mushrooms and onions and it taste like pieces of rubber. Also, I don't recognize that as cheese. It looks more like something plastic.

    Staff is very friendly! So I came here super hungry and decided to try the burger and fries (unfortunately I wrote this review a few weeks later and cannot remember which burger I chose). The menu had a lot of great options so much so that I was super indecisive when I got up to the window to order. The young man that was there (can't remember his name) was super patient with me and even working with me to discuss some of the nutritional facts about each item. Since the pandemic struck, I've developed a habit of eating in my car and/or waiting until I get home when I can comfortably take my mask off and not have anxiety about the virus. The food itself was warm because it was just cooked however the fries was extremely salty; so much so that I could not finish it all. The burger itself also wasn't that great- I wanna say that may have been salty as well. There is plenty of places to sit to eat as this resturant is located with a mall. I would probably come back and give this place one more try to see if the food improved.

    Flounder
    Bre J.

    When you think mall food you start by wondering how strong your stomach may be. As I was super reluctant to add tummy problems on my shopping day. But two sales associates made the suggestion to try this place out. Well I can say I was not disappointed at ALL. I ordered the two piece flounder with fries and side salad(no extra charge) instead of coleslaw. Every bite was worth the caloric coma that came afterwards. I'm not sure what addicting ingredient they put in the hush puppies but definitely continue. If your in the mall make the pit stop! You will not regret it.

    Fish sandwich and fries
    Anthony T.

    I came here about a week ago to get something to eat and I must say that I was very disappointed. I will never eat at this showmars again. The customer service was ok I did have to wait long to order but I had to wait a while to receive my food. I've eaten at plenty of showmars throughout the city and I always go with the fish sandwich or the seafood platter and this was the weakest fish sandwich I ever received from any showmars that I've been to. I was highly disappointed.

    South Park Mall Food Court, Charlotte, NC--go there when you get hungry!
    Anthony W.

    As this is my 1st experience with this fast food Mediterranean/Greek cuisine, in a Mall I was very impressed. We had the chicken sandwich and cole slaw and Grilled Chicken and grilled vegetables with rice pilaf ( Chicken Santorini). We were very pleased with the portion, taste and temperature of our meal. This place was busy for a Sunday after church crowed and they got it all right the 1st time. We don't usually have such a great experience with Mall food courts and this was truly an exception! So if you are visiting the South Park Mall in Charlotte and get hungry, I highly recommend the Showmars Food Kiosk at this place. The Fish meal had a health amount of wild caught fish served on the sandwich and great tasting coleslaw salad.

    Gyro combination ...where's the lettuce
    Jenita M.

    Not the gyro I was expecting. There wasn't any lettuce and they don't add gets on it. It was cool they added employee discount (with proof). I've been told there's a gyro supreme that has all that so maybe I'll check it out.

    The worst gyro I've ever tasted (it didn't even have lettuce in it) not authentic! The burgers were fast food quality. Free refills, though.

    Best burger I've ever had--and I'm 51, so I've had quite a few over the years…read more Every detail was outstanding, from the perfectly cooked burger and incredibly soft, pillow-like bun to the quality paper they wrapped everything in. You can tell the people here really care about getting it right. My daughter and I stopped in before seeing Kacey Musgraves on Friday night, and it couldn't have been a better start to our evening. The service was warm and friendly, and even the dark cherry soda was incredible (I almost never drink soda, so that's saying something!). I'll be uploading a few photos because this place deserves them. Thanks to everyone involved for making our father-daughter night so memorable. We'll definitely be back.

After scanning the menu, I decided on the OG Burger to keep it simple. I did take note that all items are sold separately if you want fries and drinks. The menu doesn't have a massive selection, which can be easier for me at times. Since I ordered the side of fries, I also grabbed the sauce bundle for a fry party! The sauces were ok, but I don't think I'd purchase them again. The burger patties had good flavor and paired nicely with the fresh onions on the burger. The cheese was melted and layered between the patties bringing it all together. To me, the fries weren't as fresh as I would have preferred, but overall did enjoy the burger from here. Seating can be difficult depending on when you visit but we were able to find a table to enjoy our meals together with no issue.

    As a West Coast transplant now living in Charlotte, I have very specific standards when it comes to…read moreburgers. For me, the gold standard isn't fancy -- it's balance. Think that perfect meat-cheese-bread ratio you get at an In-N-Out: not too big, not too messy, not dripping everywhere, but still juicy and satisfying. A burger you can actually pick up and enjoy without resorting to a knife and fork like George Costanza. That's why I appreciate Ace No. 3. Their menu is refreshingly simple -- burgers, fries, shakes -- and that simplicity tells me they know exactly what they do well. Everything is made to order, and the consistency shows. The Ace burger is my go-to, and it delivers every time. The shoestring fries are excellent, and the sweet potato tots are another favorite. I've also treated myself to a milkshake here and there, and they're worth it. Fun bonus: they offer "boozy shakes" for adults, which adds a playful twist -- just note they have to be enjoyed on site. They also keep a short, rotating list of beers, which I appreciate. It's curated, not overwhelming. One thing I noticed recently -- and as a fellow marketer, I have to applaud this -- is their milkshake happy hour from 2-4 PM. That's a smart strategy to drive traffic during slower hours between lunch and dinner. Simple, effective, and well executed. A few practical notes: Parking can be a little tight because the lot behind the restaurant is small, but if you go during off-peak hours or order ahead for pickup, it's manageable. The Belmont neighborhood location is easy to get in and out of, and while it's not a high-traffic pedestrian area, that can actually work in your favor. Bottom line: As someone who grew up with West Coast burger culture, this is the closest I've found in Charlotte to that classic, satisfying bite -- even if it costs a bit more than In-N-Out. The quality and execution make it worth it. Get out there, eat well, be curious -- and follow me as I continue eating my way through Charlotte.

As a New Yorker we have our share of markets/food halls and OH fits the familiar script, with a slightly smaller footprint than what I've experienced. What never seems to change is that securing seating can be a challenge because all spots are "prime" real estate and the abundance of choices is an indecisive person's nightmare. Nonetheless, to all the foodies at heart those are just minor details for mere mortals... lol. We managed to grab a larger enough table and everyone circled until we made our individual choices and then returned to our central meeting spot to break bread and indulge in all of our finds. We enjoyed several of the eateries we experienced and I was particularly intrigued by the plant store (albeit kinda pricey). Returning is a no brainer especially for the places that were most memorable. Just A Note: Parking is not free, payment is required. Please note depending on the time of day it can be crowded so securing a spot will require patience.

The order is personalized on a build your own salad pad, so I don't know how she messed it up. Additionally she missed our only side of tots. We waited 15 minutes with no urgency on getting my right protein and the side of tots. Walked in and all the waitresses were on their phones in an empty booth. It's a shame because I would normally rate this place at least 4/5 stars.
