The restaurants that surround this area give this piece of land once probably occupied by Indians in the 1800s something to be reckoned with the food alone the aroma of all the different ethical restaurants make this a place to visit if you're coming from out of town please stay at one of the hotels and in the evening and then during lunch explore the taste of Charlotte The ballantyne area of Charlotte with that being said have a blessed day okay so as a journalist for Google maps I have given you my best opinions and reviews a lot of things has happened since the last time I posted one of the things that has happened is a very bad disparity of judgment on some individuals who congregate at a restaurant and for now I'm going to be hesitant to explain everything but as time goes on I promise to elaborate I have to give them an opportunity to make men's on the faults that they have and I spelled men's m e n d s for the sake of their business their restaurant and their future I'm going to hold this thought but not for long it's not a threat it's a promise I promise to get back to you and tell you everything just give me a little bit of time while I gather all the evidence that I need to give you a true insight on this particular shopping venue I'm sorry shopping development well shopping center that we call Valentine village b a l l t y n e e village I apologize that is not the proper place I believe it's called Torrington give me a little time please before I upset people

This center has some excellent restaurants in Miro, Viva Chicken and Zeitonis. Earthfare is a refreshing option to the Harristeeters that dominate the area. Pike Nurseries is also located here. Ballantyne Jewelers, my favorite jeweler, is situated prominently near the intersection. Several upper echelon hotels also call this area home.

It's a diversified, attractive shopping center, parking spots are sufficient but sometimes difficult to find. There are a variety of shops and restaurants and medical offices, I love Hollywood Feed, for health-conscious pet owners.Pike's nursery is excellent - large selection and high quality. Their prices upscale, but I recommend it.

I went here to see a novant orthopedic doctor. Was so happy to find so many shopping places around the location.I got to go to Pike's nursery which was right behind the clinic. It is off of one of the busiest roads in South Charlotte but not so busy once you get into the shopping center. There was plenty of parking when I went.

I went to Viva Chicken because I am diabetic and I explained to the guy about my health issues he obviously did not understand what I was trying to tell him I told him several times so when I got home I was very disappointed and my food I paid $19 for food I will not go back there because you put my health in jeopardy

My favorites in this shopping center are Vida Chicken, Hickory Tavern and Pikes. I am not a fan of Midtown Smokehouse, but they always seem to be doing a good business. Some medical systems here too. Parking is tough as the medical centers don't allow for general parking so it limits choices when busy.

I really enjoy the open market very exciting as so many things to look at I really want to buy everything but I will be back to enjoy going through and getting the things that I want I love fruits and vegetables and all the other unique things they have I will be back to that toringdon Circle shopping

This plaza has a couple of great restaurants that includes Miro a Spanish restaurant and Zeitouni's a Greek restaurant. It even has a very descent hibachi grill restaurant. The plaza also has Earth Fare, while slightly over priced, still a good place for fresh vegetables and unique foods.

The plants are beautiful and healthy looking,the people are very nice nice and informable, if you have any questions about indoor-outdoor plants, shrubbery, trees, Landscaping etc. they know the answer, the place is set up nice easy to walk around get in and out, nice parking lot area

A maze to navigate at night and police cars profiling people with flat billed hats EVERYWHERE!! Go in the day, safer for the peace of mind of not getting locked up because your hoodie says ECKO on it and you're 40 and still dressing like a late 90s skateboarder (hey, sup)

Wheelchair accessible. Free parking. Nice shops, restaurants, and gym. Dental businesses. Indian food. Viva Chicken. Hickory Tavern. Midwood BBQ. Hotels and Apartment complexes w/n a few feet. Next to the greenway trails. Easy to spot in traffic.

Toringdon circle is a "destination" place for restaurants ( Peruvian, Thai, Spanish, Lebanese, Chinese and yes, American food) and professional offices primarily. There are some assorted few boutique shops and a large garden/flower shop as

Nice shopping center. We stayed at Homewood suites and got out and walked around. Restaurants,nail salon, massage parlor, bar and more inside the shopping center. I had a lovely time vacationing here for my fiance birthday weekend getaway.

This is where my eye doctor's office is located. I get my glasses from My Eye Dr. It is a very nice office the people are very friendly and the location is easy to find. One important thing is there's always parking at the door.

Pike's Garden Center is there, amazing selection and the staff is very knowledgeable. Also there are so many different restaurants, if you can not find something to eat, you probably have not been conceived!

PIke's is the best nursery. Debbie in houseplants helped my friend get setup in her new apartment ND she is knowledgeable and honest. Those plants are her babies and she sends them to good homes only!

Never too crowded. Not too much selection in terms of shops and restaurants but I can't complain. Hickory tavern is the highlight of this shopping center and that's not saying much...

Several good restaurants and shops. Traffic flow and parking are always a minor challenge. Tough to get in and out of real quick, but some of the shops are worth the challenge.

Novant Rheumatoid and Arthritis-Dr. Amit Patel -FAV Dr out of my whole team. Insightful, compassionate. Do not wish arthritis upon you However, if you must go, go here …
