Burger joint to replace shuttered eatery in Belmont neighborhood

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Expect burgers, fries and shakes when this restaurant opens in Charlotte's Belmont neighborhood.

Ace No. 3 — the latest concept for Paul Manley and Andrew Chapman — is targeting an October opening at 1001 Belmont Ave.
