Customers come for the flavored fries—especially Chili BBQ and Garlic Parmesan—and some folks really enjoy the sweet potato fries. Loopy fries and tater tots are fun, and when the fries are hot and freshly seasoned, people say they hit the spot. A few diners mention friendly interactions, like a tall staffer with great customer service, and staff who were helpful about allergen questions.
Diners enjoy the concept, although many say the execution is inconsistent. Several mention fries that arrive cold, stale, or soggy—sometimes hard or chewy, like they’ve been sitting under a heat lamp. Seasoning can be a gamble: too little, way too much, or an extra charge for what some consider a normal amount. A couple of customers were frustrated when requests to mix multiple flavors were refused, and a few believe the seasoning powder itself tastes different now. Wings and chicken tenders didn’t get much love either, with comments about rock-hard wings and gritty tenders. Prices also feel steep to some given the portion size and variable quality.
Service experiences swing both ways. Some customers claim staff were snippy or inattentive, with orders delayed while employees chatted or a ticket got “lost,” while others had polite, helpful interactions. One diner reported getting sick after eating here, and a few say the place used to be great but has slipped. People like the convenience of a mall snack, but seating can be limited at busy times. Overall, when fries are cooked to order and seasoned right, folks are happy; when they’re held too long or the seasoning’s off, disappointment shows.
