These were like the KCET of fries- they have potential but were pretty damn boring. The words generic, dull, and Rob Schneider come to mind when eating these. I’ve had these a couple times and there’s a couple problems. The first thing is they’re consistently undercooked- floppy, flimsy, basically all in all wack city. And when you take frozen/ok fries, and don’t cook them properly (without asking for them to be crispy) it comes out really bland. It’s not that they taste that frozen, but they’re just super bland. You need salt/ketchup/anything to make them average tasting. They do give you a decent sized portion though. However, if you go here desiring some potatoey goodness in rectangular form you’re not totally out of luck. They’re garlic fries very, very good. They give you a great portion, and generally, lots of fresh garlic and parsley. It’s nothing ridiculously special, but it hits the spot- I really enjoy them. And if you like spicyness, their cajun fries (aka their regular fries that they sprinkle cajun spice on to) are actually pretty good too. Adding good stuff to bad fries for the win.
