Review of The Merrimack Premium Outlets Food Court

A double patty burger that is just-grilled juicy, topped with a mound of fresh mushrooms and melted Swiss cheese, with onions, pickles, tomato and lettuce for $5.19

Tip: Loads of tables outside to picnic in the warmer weather.

A meal in itself for $1.59. A classically spicy hot and sour soup with deep rich flavor, topped with chunks of fresh mushrooms.

Tip: Vegetarians vote for the vegetable plate for $5.99 that comes with rice or noodles with mixed vegetables and a vegetable egg roll.
 

Villa is the direct descendent of the original pizza shop that opened in New York City in 1964 by Michele Scotto and still uses the original recipes he brought with him from Naples. For their Mac n’ Cheese, they take mild cheddar cheese and melt it into a classic Alfredo sauce to bathe the macaroni.

Tip: Side it with their $1.30 homemade garlic rolls.

You get a made-to-order salad of greens with a choice of four toppings from their salad bar for $7.79. Who said you can’t eat healthy at a mall food court?

Tip: Ask for their yummy Salsa Ranch dressing, which they prepare from Ken’s Ranch dressing then mix in fresh chopped salsa.

Cooked-to-order, never frozen, only fresh chicken served with either coleslaw or mashed potatoes with gravy or French fries or corn or black beans, topped with a thick  slice of Texas Toast. For two pieces of chicken and the fixings: $6.39

Tip: Ask for Sriracha hot sauce to spice it up a bit.

A thick smoothie made only from non-fat yogurt, fresh bananas and fresh strawberries for $4.99

Tip: Non-fat yogurt is also available in a cup or cone topped with fresh fruit toppings.
