...The pommes frites were less a second banana and more of a co-star, bringing back waves of nostalgia--for me at least--piercing crispy-on-the-outside shoestrings of airy potato that might be the only thing that ketchup was really made for.... read more

More food truckery! As a fan of both frites and meats, as well as food trucks, I would seem to be the target demographic here, but this just didn't get me doing cartwheels down Park Avenue. I called in my order and it was ready when I got there. Pretty tasty burger, but not in my Top 5. And wrapped in foil and a paper bag served from a truck... well, it just didn't seem special. The frites were actually the standout here; more like skinny McDonald's fries but cooked the right way and delicious. Not bad overall, but I am on a quest for the sublime. read more

"Frites N Meats" stands out among the "truck crowd" for having exceptionally tasty food that's almost as pleasant as a sit down place. The BYMARK burger (grassfed angus with brie, seasoned & grilled mushrooms and garlic aioli spread) was terrific; cooked just to my order specs. Fries were crisp and came with my choice of five dipping sauces. Order came up quickly (standing in 30-degree NYC winter winds isn't easy) and the service was spot on. Well done, guys. Keep 'em coming! read more

I've been a devout follower of Frites'nMeats from day one and I have to say that of all the food truck experiences I've had in the past 2 years, this is one that will continuously have me coming back. Their burgers are very addictive. The process for ordering is basic, but very appropriate. the food is presented in an appealing manner and their fries... Yeah... Whenever I have time and a craving for burgers, I go to these guys! Burger Love now and forever! read more

Frites 'n' Meats - how the order form looks like.. - Food Trucks Near Me

The burgers here are great. The meat is perfectly cooked, and the toppings including choice of cheese is outstanding. My personal favorite is the Kamikaze (one of their weekly specials) with provolone, bacon, and onion rings. And how can I possibly forget those wonderful brioche buns? I seem to be the anomaly when it comes to the fries though, as I just didn't care for them so much. The double frying just doesn't sit well with me, either in taste, or in my stomach later. The sauces (sassy frites) are their big selling point, and they are very tasty....but I just wasn't a fan of the fries. I'll definitely keep coming back here for the awesome burgers though. read more

Ali has the best burger truck in America. Sometimes a wait but always worth it! And the fries are fresh, hot and delicious. Highly recommend, been going whenever possible for years. And the 10th burger is FREE!!!!! Weekly schedule is online. read more

Discovering this truck was the highlight of my week... I was just walking along when I smelled deliciousness wafting towards me on Greenwich.... I had the burger with gruyere and avocado mayo and it was awesome. Also, $3 fries can't be beat.... They had tons of sauces listed which I fully plan on going back to try. Giving this food truck 5 stars bc of taste, price, and the super friendly guy who works the truck! read more

Great burger and fries. One of the best NYC food trucks. My go to is beef, cheddar, jalapeno, l.t.o., on a brioche bun. With fries and the chipotle ketchup to dip in. For $11 bucks. There is always a line and a bit of a wait. But its definitely worth it. read more

Best burger in NYC. yea i said it. consistently fantastic. The burger is always cooked to a perfect med-rare and the frites are always crispy. You would think when there's a line of 30 people, they'd rush and push out a overcooked burger or soggy fries, but they don't. During the lunch rush wait times can be 15-20 minutes but you can call in your order in advanced. Been saying for years that they should have a brick and mortar spot and they finally do. burger bar coming to williamsburg. can't wait to check ti out read more

This is a What Works/What Doesn't Work review. WHAT WORKS: High quality delicious large beef burger (I got Angus), fresh toppings, made to order. Really a special treat, this burger. WHAT DOESN'T WORK: Guys, don't let your cheapness ruin your brand. Packets of Hunts ketchup? A definite red flag, and you can't possibly think it passes for organic. And you up-sell your Jazzy Sauce and Savory Onion Jam; .75 each, but then you just put on a tiny smidge of each--that kind of nickel and dime-ing is uncool, and New Yorkers don't appreciate it. Also your "frites" are no bueno. They're hot and crispy and you follow the Five Guys model of giving way too many, but they are not the fresh cut pure potatoes in oil I expect from an organic brand, or for something called a "frite". These are just some salt-infused suspiciously too-crispy probably-frozen fries. read more

Frites 'n' Meats - Wagyu burger and fries, straight chron to the DON!!!!!! - Food Trucks Near Me

Delicious!!! Garlicky guacamole is a must... The first time I ordered the burger, the patty was cooked a perfect medium but the second time, it was well done... too dry for me... and on top of that my garlicky guac was all out of the burger and over the wrapping paper... Com'on, if I pay for something I want it inside my burger, not on the wrapping so I have to lick it or wipe m I had to take out a star for inconsistency and messing my lunch. read more

I always keep tabs on this truck when its around for lunch. I'm always looking for a great burger with all the delicious trimmings and Frits 'n' Meats is pretty darn close. I usually go for the standard angus, which they make charred on the outside but still pink inside. The extra toppings are great, and there's plenty of exotic cheeses you can go with. Tomatoes/onions/pickes/lettuce tasted fresh and their fries come out almost perfect. Make sure to order their chipotle mayo to go along with the fries! Always an awesome experience. Watch out for the lines however, you can be waiting for 30+ minutes during lunch for your order. Check their twitter and keep their punch card as you come back for more, and try to call ahead with your order for pickup. A most solid burger option. Highly recommended! read more

The good: 1. Food quality A+ 2. You get plenty of food for the price (anyone complaining that the food is expensive should just go to McDonald's since clearly they prefer to eat trash) 3. The owner is so nice, he even remembers your name after you've been there once or twice (seriously I walked up to the truck and he goes "Bianca right?") which is amazing considering the fact that he sees so many different faces every day 4. The fries... 5. The weekly burgers are always a perfect choice 6. You can place your order over the phone so you don't have to stand out there and wait 7. They give you a punch card so every 10th burger is free The bad: 1. They're not at my location every day 2. The lines are always half a block long (actually technically a good because it shows how good the food is) Seriously, if you see this big yellow truck sitting on a corner consider yourself lucky and hurry to get some food Side note: I don't have any pictures because I usually eat half the burger before I can unlock my phone lol read more

When ever i need my burger/fries fix these are the guys i would turn to. Burgers are made just right and i can never get enough of those fries. Juicy burger, crispy fries and when all is done i just want more. These guys are super friendly which makes this a big plus. Wednesday is BURGER DAY!!! read more

Definitely one of the best burgers I've ever had. I got the American Kobe (Waygu) burger, no special fixins, and hot diggity, as soon as I took a bite there was a party in my mouth and everyone was invited. I will say though that the burger was cooked a little rare for my liking. Hot tip - if you can, call and order ahead; the truck attracts a huge crowd and at peak hours you can find yourself waiting up to 45 minutes for your food. I learned that one the hard way. The fellas in the truck are an affable bunch too. read more

I had a burger and fries from the truck today! They were delicious! It even comes with a Dum Dum! I highly recommend this for lunch when it's near you! read more

One of the best burgers in town. I really dig the Brioche bun, but it's the flavorings in the Angus burger that make me say that. I'm not too easily impressed by a burger, but when this truck comes round, my mouth definitely starts to water. I really wish they'd come closer to my new office at 59 and Lex, though. The Frites n Meats truck and Korilla are 2 of the things I really miss about the Financial District :( read more

Its not the best burger you are ever going to eat, however, it will come pretty close. The meat is grilled to medium maybe medium-rare and is very juicy and tender with a bit of grill/char flavor which makes it all the better. Another added advantage is that their burger is not greasy and doesn't make you feel heavy and bloated. A few of my coworkers also rave about the fries from here.. so maybe give them a try if you are indeed a fries lover/expert. read more

What: Grass-fed Angus burger w bleu cheese, tomato and greens + fries. Quality of beef: Below average. Lots of chewy fat pieces, which I hate. Definitely not lean ground beef. Overall taste: Not bad, but quality of meat detracted. Fries: Good. Slightly better than Jack in the Box fries, but similar taste. Worth $3? No way. Service: Below average. Not rude, but nonchalant, as if they don't need your business. Result: Don't worry, you won't get my business again. There are too many good burger joints in Manhattan to waste your money or stomach space on a below average, high-priced burger. read more

I am actually not a big burger fan, but I love a good french fry, and Frites n Meats' frites are to die for. They are simply awesome, and the sauces add a nice touch too. Normally I go with a skirt steak sandwich. Great meat, great cheeses great toppings. There is nothing not to like. But the most amazing thing here is the Makers Mark burger. It's not a regular menu item. Definitely worth following them on twitter to find out the schedule. I'm not sure it's fair to call it a burger, it's just so much better. read more

Holy hell, the frites are delicious. Dipped in the garlic aioli is pure heaven, or the cheese sauce. Those frites are the stuff of dreams. The burger wasn't my favorite, but I'll certainly give them another shot (if only because I crave those fries to insane levels) -- the ingredients were very quality: good meat, great cheese, good bun, tasty guac, etc. The burger just didn't blow me away, but it really satisfied me and kept me full all day, which I guess is what a good lunch is all about. I'll be back when it's convenient, for sure. The ordering is convenient: you're filling out a card, which is something more food trucks that allow you to design your meal should start doing. The highlight of the truck: you can pay by credit card! awesome! A slight gripe: I can buy a can of coke for less, or a 20oz of diet coke for more? I just wanted a simple can of diet coke. The price seems to be a bit on the high side, and while I'm generally a person who can look past the idea of eating from a truck (because this one has really high quality ingredients) I certainly spend more at frites n meats than I do grabbing lunch somewhere brick and mortar near my office in midtown. read more

Awesome burgers. I wait every Wednesday for their truck to park close to work. Their fries are great too. All their burgers are made perfectly. read more

This is the BEST food truck out there!!!! The variety and quality of these burgers are beyond compare. Since their appearance at the LIC Food Truck lot this summer I have been singing their praises. So much so, that I started dragging my coworkers out there every single Thursday for their weekly visit. And after only 1 try, I was not doing any dragging... It has become our office's ONLY Thursday lunch option!!! I am a certified burger of the week addict, since it allows me a chance to experience all the different personas of this burger without having to think too hard about my toppings! But if you are not the adventurous type, they have many classic toppings to make it your very own. And not only are their burgers INSANELY good, their fries (or Frites) are simply potatoes escalated to pure perfection... This may seem like an exaggeration, but once you try them you will see what I mean!!!!. The are crispy, flavorful and you are given plenty to satisfy your Frites craving! To make it even more insanely good they have aioli sauces that will suit any taste. Hands down a great burger, amazing fries and fabulous selections... You will be amazed and so worth your while to find this amazing food truck!!!! read more

Not just the best burger in the city, but also the nicest group of people cooking and serving the food. Gourmet quality burgers made to order like you want it, amazing sauces and some of the best frites I've ever had. Track them down, you won't regret it! read more

Frites 'n' Meats - The Spicy Jazz - Food Trucks Near Me

This was the best burger ever! I had the kobi beef with goat cheese, yum! The fries are also to DIE FOR. Definately give them a try, you will not be disappointed! read more

Seriously, you guys. First Thing's First Burger: I had gruyere cheese and the "complimentary vegetables" and it was delicious. The meat was cooked well and seasoned well. It wasn't overly greasy so I didn't make a mess (hey, I'm messy. so?) but still good, if you can imagine that possibility. And it tasted fresh. I've eaten many a burger in my day; the thing was just a well executed burger. Bonus points: I didn't feel like the epitome of gluttony when I finished eating the burger. It might be because I cut it in half to eat it. Fries: perfect combination of crispy and...not crispy; tasted like potatoes but not in a bad way; not too greasy; perfectly salted; didn't require any sauce to be enjoyable. Also, the individual fries looked like they each came from a good home: clean looking, not over fried, straight lines. It's now the summer, the Season of Interns. For the uninitiated, the financial district (where I caught the truck) always has tons of tourists in addition to all the people who work there. Interns are like...an influx of eager and earnest tourists. This all equals madness at lunch. This long line was worth it. Not only was the burger super tasty (espesh' for the price), but the truck's system was STUPID organized and worked like a well-oiled machine (hahaha, 'cause it's in a truck...). The truckers (for lack of a better word) were SO nice, and SO accommodating: they gave us free-birthday-fries and cut my burger in half for me to support my illusion that that meant less calories. The truck was super clean and the truckers were very friendly and efficient at the same time. There are a ton of sauces that you can purchase for the fries and the burger. Lots of aioli sauces and such. There is also a good selection of meats that you can choose. The grass-fed beef that I had was the cheapest option and it was more than good enough for this discerning pallet. Even though they're forcing us pronounce the first word wrong, I love everything about Frites 'n' Meats!!! read more

My coworkers go to this place religiously, so I had lofty expectations for it heading in. I went fairly basic with the burger, and added bacon for good measure. The burger was really undercooked for my liking, and I didn't find out till after that you can ask them to cook it a certain way. I suppose I'm used to servers asking me how I want it cooked. Anyway, the parts that were cooked sufficiently were good, and the bacon took it to a new level. Another knock I had is that they gave me the wrong bun. Although it was still good, I'd have much preferred the one I ordered. For those unsure of spending the extra $3 and change on the fries, channel your inner Nike and just do it. They are fantastic, and they give you enough for an entire meal by themselves. For what it's worth, I would probably have given them 4 stars if the burger was cooked more and the bun was correct. Otherwise, I felt like it was just another burger. Would go back though, so there's that too. Add this to the heaping pile of wishy-washy 3-star Yelp reviews. read more

After waiting in line in the freezing cold today, I was left with Burger King-style fries and a below room temperature burger. So disappointing. Even the usual go-to ingredients of goat cheese, jalapenos, and ( always burnt) bacon failed to bring out any flavor of this bland experience. Halfway through my burger, i just looked at the monstrosity and shuddered in fear, but I braved on as I didn't want to waste my $12.50 spent. UPDATE 11/2; Still just as bad. read more

2nd time having a burger here. Both times there was a massive line outside. The food is great. Burger is really high quality (had the Kobe beef). It was cooked a little too pink for my liking, but I was so hungry I look past it. Thankfully I did, because the burger was delicious. A little cold, but I didn't mind. Fries were exceptional too-just the right amount of crispiness. I'm trying to cut down on eating beef, but Frites 'n' Meats is making it hard, especially with their punchcard. If they added a chicken sandwich/burger, that'd be a game-changer. read more

Best fries I've ever had from a food truck, hands down. Burgers are also very good quality (grass fed beef) & the service is top notch. Definitely get there early, as a line can build. You can also call them to pre-order. I'm always looking forward to Thursday's, as that's when they visit DUMBO. read more

So far I've only had the frites with the Spicy Chili Aioli. And they are delicious, crisp, and salty just the way fries are supposed to be. Served in a faux newspaper cone, 2 dum-dum lollipops and a tiny fork is cute too. Will have to go back and try the meats for sure. read more

These guys also come to the financial district (Broad & Water) . I was craving a burger and they were parked right outside my office. So, I gave into temptation and got an average burger with some decent fries. Overall, I don't regret it, but it's not the best 700 calorie meal I've had for $10 in the area. read more

I enjoy a good burger and Frites 'n Meats serves up a mighty tasty one! However, my total weakness is for French fries and these boys know how to do 'em right! Forget trying to transport them to your mealtime destination. You won't (and shouldn't) make it without diving into the addictively delicious cone of frites. I also highly recommend the garlic aioli as an indulgent condiment. Add to the delicious food, the incredibly friendly service, philanthropic nature of the owners, being a local small business, and did I happen to mention the FRITES?!?! Well, that explains why I try to sneak away from work every Wednesday and travel an hour to buy lunch from this truck. read more

I've been wanting to try this truck for some time. I was in the city so I hunted them down. I ordered their angus patty on a brioch bun with gruyere cheese. Raw onion, pickle, tomato, mayo and ketchup topped it off. My burger was cooked med rare. I am fine with that, but I know many people that wouldn't have eaten it. They seem to use good ingredients and it was very tasty except for a part of the patty was burnt. Not a tasty char, but a not so tasty burnt. Luckily it was just a small part of the burger. Overall, a good product. Worthy of another try. Judging by the steady line of customers, others must agree. read more

My favorite truck in Dumbo, look forward to it all week. Great food, good prices. Lots of options. My regular is a grass fed Angus with onion jam and bacon on brioche. Can't go wrong, but there's plenty of other options. Best fries I've had in the city. Try with cheddar sauce or garlic aioli. read more

I love this truck. I have been getting fries from them every Wednesday for the past few years. The fries are consistently amazing, the portions are big, and the prices are great. The guy that takes the orders will remember you if you come consistently, which is pretty impressive for a truck. He knows I only get fries and will just put in the order for me when he sees me. Also you get a Dum Dum with your fries, which is awesome. read more

I love this truck. The food is always amazing. The fries are always fresh and there is something special about them. Our office looks forward to Wednesdays just because this truck is parked outside Houston/Hudson Street. The skirt steak is wonderful, and all of the burgers are awesome and always juicy. The garlic aioli for the French fries is amazing. The order of fries is huge so be prepared to share unless you don't want to because they are that GOOD!!! The Heavenator is HEAVEN!!!! - Muenster Cheese, Applewood Smoked Bacon, Truffle Butter & Maker's Mark Bourbon BBQ Sauce. SO YUMMY! You have to try this place if your in the area of Hudson/HOUSTON on WEDNESDAY'S. GOOD LUCK WITH THE NEW LOCATION!!! Melissa Happy Customer of Many Burgers and Fries!!!! read more
