Jim Noble's delicious fried chicken, based on recipes passed down from his Great Aunt Beulah, is…read morenow conveniently available at the Ballantyne Bowl, in a comfortable, laid-back setting that offers ample seating both inside and out. The Beaut Fried Chicken Sandwich might just be one of the best handheld meals in Charlotte -- juicy, tender and practically exploding with flavor. Slathered with mayo and pickles, and topped with their zesty Bossy Sauce, it's perfection on a buttery bun. If a sandwich isn't your thing, you can also order Bites, Wings, Tenders or a Wrap -- pair any of them with a side of fries and a tasty local brew (they have several available in cans), and you'll be in fried chicken heaven. Prices are reasonable, the service excellent, and parking conveniently located at multiple locations in the Bowl. Highly recommended!

The batter could have had a little more flavor, but definitely tasty. Dijon dip was good. The potato salad was okay, not too mayonnaise-y, and a bit of dill maybe.

What a great place to buy fresh meat or fish. The place was packed with customers either picking up…read morepre order food or placing an order like us. You can buy rubs, marinades, salads, sides, bread, rolls, desserts, etc. They also have frozen wild game if that is what you are into. It was unfortunate that half their store did not have power as we were not able to see any of the meat or fish on display. iI was ok we were not able to hand select our steaks or fish - the store has such a great reputation we were not too worried about what we would end up with. We decided to order 4 prime marinated NY strip and 2 tuna steaks. They make theur own naribade so we had to try it. We also wanted to try one of frozen pre-made meals so we chose the sausage and pasta with vodka sauce. While in line to checkout we saw more than a few people with trays of cinnamon buns so we had to try them as well. This is a summery of our purchased food:. The cinnamon rolls were grainy. Not smooth. I think they were old (I had to pull them from the back). The steaks had a great flavor as the marinade was really good. Three of the 4 steaks were over cooked because we were given 4 different sized steaks. 2 got burnt the third was well done....$60 wasted. The tuna was good but again they gave us one large steak and one thinner one so the smaller was was dry....another $15 wasted. If I can make any suggestion....do not make a purchase without seeing what you are buying. $136.00 later I can say I was disappointed because of the unevenness it was cooked improperly. 4 stars because the cook is partially to blame. 3 stars otherwise. The sales person is the first person that should know better than to sell meat and fish the way they did. Ruined my Christmas meal. Only 1 of us ate. :(

In Ballantyne is a delightful secret nestled within Libretto's Pizza--a ghost kitchen by the name…read moreof Junior's NYC Deli. It was an Instagram post, a visual siren's song of a Cuban sandwich that first beckoned me, only to find myself further enchanted by the allure of a house-smoked pastrami Reuben sandwich. Unable to resist, I marked my calendar for a weekend lunch escapade. I boldly ordered both the Cuban and the Pastrami Reuben. Yes, both! Half of each was thoughtfully boxed to prolong the gastronomic joy into the evening. For those whose appetites wander to different cravings, fear not, for the Italian embrace of NY-Style pizza and dishes stands ready to satisfy. And for those in pursuit of libation, a full bar awaits. The Cuban sandwich, priced at an inviting $13, was a masterclass in sandwich craft. The house-baked Cuban bread, lovingly baked with bacon fat, cradled house-roasted mojo pork, ham, mustard, pickles, and Swiss cheese--a press sealing the deal. This, my fellow foodies, is the Cuban sandwich of my dreams. The mojo pork moist & tender, the Swiss cheese a gooey delight, and the balance of mustard and pickles, a harmony of flavors that danced in my mouth. Next up, the house-smoked pastrami Reuben, at $14, a spectacle on thick slices of house-baked sourdough rye bread. Each element, from the buttery crispy sourdough rye to the savory thousand island dressing, melded with the Swiss cheese and, in my case, sans sauerkraut. The pastrami, oh the pastrami, smoked in-house to a level of perfection that would make NYC delis weep with envy. Mike Libretto, the maestro behind the curtain, has channeled the essence of NYC's Sarge's Deli into every bite. And for the insatiably hungry, a mere $5 promises a double mountain of meat, though I found the standard serving more than ample. Ease of access? Check, with parking aplenty and free. Comfort? Assured, amidst a dining area that welcomes with open arms. My visit, at the peak of Saturday's leisurely hours, found the place abuzz with satisfied patrons. The soundtrack? A soothing blend of Norah Jones, Creedence Clearwater Revival, and Jack Johnson that serenaded the dining experience. Savannah, the ambassador of Junior's/Libretto's at the order counter, navigated the menu with an expertise that was both impressive and reassuring. And Mike, the visionary behind this culinary haven, radiates a pride in his offerings. Support this beacon of local business, and treat yourself to a meal that resonates with the soul seeking Cuban and Reuben sandwich enthusiasts.

The salt bagel was my favorite from the 2 flavors we ordered but I'd love to try all of the flavor options. Service was super fast. We went on a weekday a little after 9am and there was no line. From my understanding, this isn't always the case with no wait. I had my full order within 10 seconds after I paid. The employees working were very nice too. The inside of the store was very trendy. I loved all the photos on the wall. They had a few high top tables outside so that's where we ate our bagels. PopUp is located in a nice shopping center in Ballantyne area. There was a parking lot close by that advertised free parking for under 3 hours. If I lived closer, I'd be going here weekly! Can't wait for my next Charlotte trip.
