    Disappointing expensive frozen small burger patty.
    Keysha P.

    First time checking out Showmars today (2/2/19) and overall it was good....clean and close to my house. I ordered the shrimp platter with fries and onion rings and my buddy ordered the single bacon cheddar cheese burger ($5.69) and upgraded with fries and a drink for $3.79. He was totally disappointed in the burger, not fresh just a frozen burger and fries that they took out the freezer. The biggest complaint is that it cost over $10 and the patty was small. I enjoyed my shrimp platter even though that too was taken out of the freezer and were tiny popcorn shrimp.....really would have preferred larger shrimp. All together the bill was $23+ for two entrees. Will return and try the Gyro or fried fish....will never order the burger again. If your gonna come to this restaurant and order a basic burger plate save yourself some money and just drive up the street to Cookout.....their burgers are a lot bigger, grilled and you get two sides, the burger and a huge drink for $5.68 tax included!

    In the nearly seven years I've lived in Charlotte, I don't know why I've never given Showmars a try. That was a mistake. This is good food. And it's inexpensive. And it's served quickly. My take out order had all the stuff I needed when I got it home. And best of all, it was tasty! We had one order of the gyro dinner, which came with a good sized pile of sliced lamb and a delicious pita bread and a good sized pile of rice. And we had another order of the fried flounder, which had a shedload of crinkle cut fries. And ketchup. And tartar sauce. Everything you need for a great meal except the defibrillator. Can't wait to return!

    I love Showmars at Providence, so I've recently moved to the Arrowood area and thought I'd give this a try. It wasn't too bad and my Postmates guy was a little turned around so my my food was a little limp and very oily (flounder, fries, hush puppies). My fish was fried well which I like, but they forgot a few toppings on both burgers and I think they gave me (2) pieces of fish instead of the three I ordered. I took off 2 stars for the missing items.

    I finally had the time to check out Showmars! And they did not disappoint!!!! For starters, the restaurant was very clean. That means everything to me. The menu was not hard to read and the staff was super friendly. I decided on trying some small plates first. Just to get my feet wet. I ordered the small fish plate, the shrimp plate, the chicken finger plate, and hushpuppies. The food was great! The fish was not fried to a crisp. The hushpuppies had a little sweetness to them. They were great! The chicken finger were not bad either. But chicken fingers are chicken fingers! The shrimp were thinner than I expected, but they tasted great. This place was a nice surprise and I can't wait to go back!

    I ordered my food to go and it was ready for pick up when I got there in 10 minutes and I went during lunch time around 12:45. The quality of the food is good and the serve is pretty good. Place is clean as well which I appreciate. I got the pasta salad which is kind of expensive for the size in my opinion and the chesseburger put a which is delicous. Try them out!

    This is a five star Greek dinner. Compared to other Greek dinners this place is top of the heap. I had the old fashioned pita burger with onions chilli and slaw. If there is a more comforting food in this town I have yet to have it. The pita is soft and perfectly warm. The burgers are cooked flattop style with the crispy edge and awesome flattop flavor. The toppings make it a perfect combo. Make sure you add fries as they serve the super crispy crinkle cut fries your childhood was made of. They are always cooked perfect and the pita and fries is less than $9, can't beat that. I love showmars and if you don't eat beef then get the fish sandwich, it is incredibly good as well.

It's one…read moreof those comfort foods I don't eat often because it's so rich--but when I see it on a menu, it absolutely catches my attention. That's exactly what drew me to The Southern Pecan in SouthPark. Here in the South, they call it country fried steak, and I'm happy to report this one did not disappoint. I met a colleague there for lunch, and everything about the experience felt easy from the start. The restaurant is located in Phillips Place, a lovely little shopping area that feels a bit polished and upscale--with shops like Orvis, Tory Burch, and even a Restoration Hardware restaurant nearby. They do offer valet parking, which is a nice touch, though honestly parking is easy enough on your own. We had reservations through OpenTable and were seated on the patio, which was absolutely delightful for this time of year in Charlotte. The weather was perfect, the setting was relaxed, and the service started off warm and welcoming right away. Now, the food. The country fried steak was beautifully cooked--crispy on the outside, tender inside, and served with creamy mashed potatoes and gravy that hit all the nostalgic notes from my Texas upbringing. I paired it with a vegetable side (I believe it was broccoli or corn), and it was a classic Southern plate done right. We also enjoyed a couple of cocktails, and to finish, we split a praline bread pudding, which felt like the perfect Southern ending to the meal--sweet, comforting, and indulgent without being overwhelming. The staff was friendly and attentive, and one of the things I continue to appreciate about Charlotte is how easy it is to connect with people. We even chatted with diners at nearby tables, which added to that welcoming, community feel that makes dining out here so enjoyable--especially for someone coming from the Bay Area. Prices felt fair for the quality, the setting, and the portion sizes, and overall the experience left a great impression. Bottom line: If you're craving a solid Southern classic like country fried steak--or just want a relaxed patio lunch in a charming part of SouthPark--The Southern Pecan is definitely worth a visit. And as someone happily eating my way through Charlotte and the Southeast, this stop was another reminder that the journey has been a delicious one.

They even still have the 120 year old pews! If you ask your server, you are likely to hear the entire story of the place. It's pretty amazing. They recently received a Michelin recommendation and it's totally deserved. It's a buffet, but most of the hot food is actually served by a person which is something that I particularly appreciate. (I really don't like touching the handles of spoons that hundreds of people have touched.) Some of the stuff is self serve but not any of the hot dishes. Absolutely everything I tried was outstanding. Like everything. There are a few things that they consider "pass around" which means that they are brought over to you by a server at random intervals. For everything else, you just help yourself. I went with a friend of mine who has a deep appreciation for a southern food. He was absolutely amazed. Honestly, I can't think of a better place to have chosen to eat in a short time I had in Charlotte. I've attached a picture of the menu. I tried just about everything. I wasn't disappointed in a single thing, and I was completely wowed by many of them. The servers were wonderful. Very friendly and very willing to talk to us about the history and the food items that were there. Highest recommendation!

How it works: Follow @so_science on Instagram, and they'll post the week's menu over the weekend. The themes vary every week, so keep an eye on it! You have until midnight on Tuesday to email them with your order. On Wednesday morning, you get an email with payment and pick-up details, and then you swing by the back of the church between 4 and 7 PM on Wednesday to pick up your goods! Pretty easy process, especially if you live close by. So far we've gotten dishes from their BBQ menu (brisket, bbq beans, cheese and mac) and their Greek menu (moussaka with side Greek salad, gyro with fries). Everything is restaurant quality. Let me rephrase: everything is excellent restaurant quality! Like what I would expect if I went to a BBQ joint or Greek spot that specialize in that type of cuisine. Pretty incredible. We originally found out about HA's from a neighbor, and I added this business page to Yelp to be able to share my photos and experiences to help spread the word about this awesome local spot!
