Dallas needs a Belgian frites joint. Nothing else’s compares.

[-]

Ateam043@reddit

This but they have to be serve with that Belgian sauce.

Went to Belgium in 18 & 19 and couldn’t have enough of their fries and spicy ketchup and what looked like some thousand island sauce.

[-]

Xyllus@reddit

Belgium has like 20+ sauces and everyone has their favorite. You may be thinking of Samurai or Andalouse

[-]

is it just me or was there a period from like 2009-2015 where every newfangled burger joint liked to do fancy ketchups and mayos and sauces and aiolis, specifically for dipping fries? the fries themselves may not have been prepared in the Belgian style but this was definitely a thing. couldn't throw a dart at a map of burger joints without hitting some place with like wasabi mayo or old bay mayo.

[-]

Xyllus@reddit

definitely, and I was here for it! nowadays its just ketchup and they look at me weird when I ask for mayo :(

[-]

Kfrop@reddit

You have to ask for Aioli 😬

[-]

Xyllus@reddit

Mayo is the MVP man

[-]

YaGetSkeeted0n@reddit

I miss it too. Most places don't even have fancy ketchup any more!

[-]

Ateam043@reddit

It was the one that look liked thousand island, orange color is the best way I can describe. Just searched it and yeah, looks like samurai sauce.

[-]

GIVE_US_THE_MANGIA@reddit

Dayum lmk when you find one! Best fries of my life was high on shrooms in Amsterdam after being up all night at the Ice Bar then a nightclub called Air. I would do anything for those fries, including giving extra of my frites sauce to anyone who asked. Sheesh

[-]

sequencedStimuli@reddit

Meyboom Brasserie on Lowest Greenville is a good Belgian spot. I haven’t had their fries sober yet, but friends of mine like them.

[-]

narconaught5@reddit

Agree, just got back from Belgium and can't stop thinking about fries and sauce.

[-]

sevencases@reddit

They opened a Dutch frites place years ago in deep ellum. I think it was called Amsterdam Fries or something like that. Sadly, it didn’t last.

[-]

SCUMDOG_MILLIONAIRE@reddit

Fake truffle oil makes me sad

[-]

FuckJanice@reddit

Fun fact, truffles actually have a very short shelf life. That flavor is a chemical set to mimic the aroma of white truffles, which is akin to the smell of sweaty feet.

[-]

playballer@reddit

And everyone that sells truffle stuff absolutely smothers that crap in there. I like it but the quantity if grotesque

[-]

Gilded_Mage@reddit

This!

[-]

There's just something about the taste of truffle oil I don't like. Seems almost like rancid is used as a flavor profile. I've tried a couple of time but haven't liked it yet. It's not you, it's me

troutforbrains@reddit

Hudson House has really good fries, but only the plain ones. The dressed up ones don’t work because the fries are thin cut and the ratio of potato to topping isn’t right.

But the plain ones, with a cheeseburger and a cocktail during happy hour prices? Great meal.

[-]

TexasGirl1964@reddit

Hudson house is gross

GIVE_US_THE_MANGIA@reddit

Naw the fries are legit below average, mid at best. Seasoning is good but that cant save them. Still a lot of nostalgia, good prices, and worth a trip. But for the best fries in Dallas? I'm sorry but you must not go to much.

[-]

hereforthegangbangg@reddit

blacknoir23@reddit

I was so sad I thought they were gonna be good to me but they were so bad to me. 😭 but… the onion rings are incredible.

[-]

texan01@reddit

It’s not necessarily the fries, but that seasoning salt is the bomb.

[-]

PlantOG@reddit

You should check out Fiesta brands french fry seasoning. I put that shit on way more than just French fries. Perfect blend of salt, sugar, and msg with a bit of allium spices.

[-]

texan01@reddit

I'll have to get some!

[-]

blacknoir23@reddit

I just might try it again this weekend.

[-]

texan01@reddit

burgers are good, on rings are great, the fries by themselves are pretty crap, but the seasoning salt is the best thing.

[-]

connivingbitch@reddit

Those fries were among my favorites but after high school, I got a little burned out on the seasoning. I can still handle it on the burgers, but it seems they they’ve overdone it more recently.

[-]

naking@reddit

I used to go to that place in the '70'sm and '80's, before they had the "patio" seating. My dad always said the smaller the shack the better the burger

Manhattan Project Brewery. Worth going for even if you're not in to beer.

[-]

Seconding Manhattan Project. I recommend this place specifically for the fries, which are the best I’ve had in Dallas over 20 years. The beer, coffee and vibes are great too.

[-]

SameSadMan@reddit

Ah yes, vibes. What else matters these days.

[-]

GIVE_US_THE_MANGIA@reddit

Damn I guess you really love up to your username! News flash but "vibes" have always mattered. Maybe you want to call it '"beauty" or "aesthetics" but nice ambiance has mattered at least as long as humans have kept a written record. Maybe you don't like that Gen Z uses a new word for this or has slightly different sensibilities, but that's on you not them. Rant over, I'm a few beers deep and this is more about me than you, genuinely hope you have a nice day gent.

Wingstop..their fries dipped in their ranch. *chef's kiss* Maple and Motor has delicious fries. We've had the loaded fries at Rodeo Goat, and it's just too much. Very greasy. The steak fries at Texas Roadhouse are good, but you have to order them unseasoned. Whatever that seasoning is they put on them just ruins them.

I’m a simple guy. Braums and Shake Shack for crinkle cut; Arby’s and Jack-in-the-box for curly fries; Taco Bell, Popeyes and 5 Guys for seasoned and/or battered fries. I’m not going to any place fancy just for fries.

[-]

MSHinerb@reddit

If your answer isn’t manhattan project, it’s because you haven’t been there. They have the best fries in Dallas. Maybe the best fries I’ve ever had.

[-]

Uhh… WINGSTOP! Not one shout out to them! Kenny’s burger joint in Plano has solid fries too. I like their truffle fries. Also, this place in Plano. Austin Avenue. Ask for their loaded fries. Make sure to tell them with cheese. Not nacho cheese. Had a mix up there once.

I think the supplier has changed or they’ve cheaped out over the years but yeah good seasoning good ranch.

I would agree with the comments on Manhattan Project. The only time ive had better was getting a happy hour omakase at Uchiko in Plano. Its not even on the menu, but the chef made something similar to beef tallow fries, but with a better crisp and fluffier inside, and I dont think ive had anything better in my life. Downside is you only got like 8 of them.

Im considering going back just to see if they still will make it.

normanboulder@reddit

In n out for crispy fries? HA They are flavorless limpy cold potatoes sticks at best. And if you get them "we'll done" they are flavorless rigid inedible potatoes sticks at best.
