    Truffle fries with lemon garlic aioli.
    Holly K.

    Absolutely amazing truffle fries that I tried at the Smorgasburg location. The fries are cooked to order (super fresh), are the perfect shape and size (thick cut), crispy and flakey on the outside and soft mashed on the inside. Twice fried and perfectly seasoned with sea salt, black truffle oil, parmasean cheese, and parsley; not drenched in oil, very light and airy with no oil taste. The fries come with a lemon garlic aioli that is mouth-watering, as well as homemade ketchup. Would return here for more fries in a heart beat!!

    You're here for some of the best fries you will have in life. The line will be well worth it as service is quick. There are too many sauces to try and unfortunately if youre not with a friend you wont get to try too many. The lemon aoili mayo, whatever it was, absolutely amazing. The other toppings are good but the fat meeting the potato and the coarse salt spells a perfect recipe for french fries. You know fries are good when they can take the center of the whole meal. Unbelievably good.

    Home Frite is probably one of the better options in Dekalb Market. But it's still a while away from being it's very best. The first sandwich combo I got was the truffle cheesesteak with regular fries. Maybe I got spoiled by Philly's cheesesteak? The truffle cheesesteak was not bad but everything was too salty in my opinion, the fries included. The first time I went, they actually burnt my fries to a crisp. It was dry inside and out and inedible. I guess it was a bad day? The second time I got their hot wings with curly fries. Much better with the fries the second time, but again the wings were a little too overdone. It's not a bad spot, just a few changes here and there and it will be perfect. Their sauces were not bad, I tried the garlic aioli--very good, chipotle ranch--also really good, curry ketchup--skip that. I would come back, service isn't bad.

    Oh. My. Gosh. This right here is French fry heaven! Seriously.. if you've never been to Home Frite, run there! Now! And if they're not open.. camp outside and wait for them to.. because they're that good !!! On a serious note though.. these fries are amazing! Perfectly golden brown and crispy and delicious!!! And they have different dipping sauces for you to choose from which I'm sure ALL taste just as great. I always get the truffle fries with the Lemon Garlic aioli... FANTASTIC ! Literally nothing wrong with them! Ever!! I've also tried their chipotle ranch sauce and it's amazing as well.. but lemon garlic is still the winner in my eyes. So yes.. please go to Home Frite.. you'd be doing yourself a disservice if you didn't!!

    Went to the Bryant Park Holiday Shops location. We went with the truffle fries with garlic aioli. It was fantastic. The fries had a really nice texture to them. They were fried to a perfect crisp on the outside without being too greasy. And the inside was soft and pillowy. The wall of the stall had some drawings of their cooking process and I think they're par-fried, baked, and then finished in the fryer to order. However they do it, the fries are really good. I'd say they're at least as good as Pomme Frite, if not a bit better. The truffle flavor really added to the experience and the aioli was the perfect dipping sauce for it. On a cold day in Bryant Park, there's nothing better than holding some crispy fries as the smell of truffle follows you from store to store.

    Some of the best fries I've ever had! I went to the smorgasbord location. Te line is pretty long but it's worth it. I got the Dutch fries, which is the fries along with curry ketchup, aioli, and diced onions. The fries are exactly how I like them, crispy on the outside but not dry, unlike sad fast food restauarant fries. The curry ketchup was specially unique. The portions are massive though, so I would recommend getting one for two or even three people unless you're really hungry!

    Hands down the best cheese steak I ever had! I got the truffle cheese steak which came in a hot toasty bun, plenty of gooey cheese, and the perfect amount of truffle flavor. Super rich and heavy. I still dream of going back to dekalb market just to get this

    I got the original home cut fries and I really enjoyed them. They were hot and soft, and personally I prefer crispy fries so they didn't really stand out to me. Overall the fries were good though.

    Didn't expand l/fill sauce tray and wanted to charge me $1 for extra sauce!

    This rating is mainly for the service - the fries were excellent. I paid $8 for the fries with the curry ketchup. I noticed they put very little ketchup in the sauce tray so I asked for more and the guy said "that'll be $1 extra" - for more ketchup! After I paid $8 for fries! If you look in the pic (attached), they didn't even expand the sauce tray so they only filled it to about 1/3 of its capacity. Luckily another worker said he would give me some regular ketchup free of charge. But cmon guys, fix your mistake and don't make the customer pay an extra $1.00 because your worker didn't properly fill the sauce tray!!!

    I'm not the person you ask to accompany you to wait in a long ass line to try the latest and greatest food whatever. Not because I don't want to try it, but I'm patient enough to bide my time for the hype of said food thing to wane and then I'm on it. Patience is a virtue and I am very virtuous person. So after seeing these insanely long lines for Home Frite every time I went to Smorgasburg, I managed to catch them at some outdoor art exhibit where there was an outdoor beer garden, a few food stands, and barely any people. Yes! Once I saw the Dutch, I knew I had to go for it. Those crispy meaty fries topped with curry ketchup, lemon aioli, and chopped onions. Holy flavor town! I was practically swooning. They blanket the fries with those toppings instead of serving the sauces separately, so the eating on the go part is kind of cancelled out, but heck if I care. I parked myself down and stuffed my face with potatoey goodness. No regrets.

    Hand Cut Truffle Fries w/ Lemon Garlic Aioli
 Home Frite for Broadway Bites @ Greeley Square Park (intersection of 33rd Street and Broadway)

    Love. Love. Love. Came across this food stand while at the Broadway Bites area in Greeley Square Park (located at the intersection of 33rd Street and Broadway) during the fall and I was blown away. Not only were the portions a great size, the sauces were mind blowing. A friend and I both ordered the truffle hand cut fries that were cooked to perfection with an overflowing amount of lemon garlic aioli to dip. The fries were crispy and perfectly seasoned. The fries are made to order so there was a wait but these fries were definitely worth it. I will most definitely be coming back for more. Also, the crew is so kind! When we just stopped by to give a tip and our compliments for a wonderful job afterwards, they gave us free brownies! (Which were also amazing.) Fantastic fries + personable people. If you come across their stand, be sure to get in line!

    Still mourning Pommes Frites despite their MacDougal plans, we decided to try this vendor that the main Smorgasburg account decided is its favorite. Sadly that favoritism was unjustified, as we -- the only customers at Coney Smorg -- were served pricey and occasionally burnt for an absurd $8 ($7 with peanut satay + $1 for an extra chipotle ranch sauce, which they inexplicably had so much trouble explaining*) (No receipt was offered). *They were also flabbergasted when we asked about the pulled pork BBQ item and why they had no relation to fries.

    The best fries you've ever had in your life. Period.

    The Good: Still like what it used to taste like from what I can remember. Hits the spot every time!…read more The Bad: Adel's is a fierce competitor a few blocks down with a long line. BUT, imho Adel's doesn't really taste as good as the original Halal Guys in terms of flavor and fragrance. The chicken from Adel's is in bigger chunks and some argue is more tender, but the flavor is definitely not close. Also, it's important that it comes with lettuce, tomatoes and a little onion to balance everything out. Finally, You must get both the spicy red and white sauce together to make it all come together! The Ugly: The smell is addictive, so if you walk by, it's hard to resist, even if you've just eaten a nice meal somewhere else. We couldn't resist. Gotta hit the gym hard for the next few days!

    The guys working the cart are genuinely some of the friendliest people you'll meet in midtown…read more Always smiling, always patient, even when the line is wrapped around the block. And that line is no joke. You will wait. Plan accordingly. Here's my dilemma: every single time I eat here, my stomach lets me know about it later. Without fail. I've tried adjusting the hot sauce, going easy on portions... doesn't matter. Something about this food and my digestive system just don't agree. At this point I have to accept that it's probably not for me. So why do I keep coming back? Because at 2 AM after a late night, when everything else is closed and you're starving in Times Square, that platter of chicken and rice over white sauce smells like salvation. They're the only game in town at that hour, and honestly, in the moment, it hits. It's the next morning I regret it. If your stomach handles it better than mine, you'll probably love it. The food is tasty and the portions are huge for the price. I just wish I could enjoy it without paying for it twice.

    I would say the food lives up to the hype. However, I don't think it's worth waiting in the…read morehour-long line like I did, just considering there are so many great halal options in the city with a much shorter line. I do think they do as good of a job managing it as possible, but it is still quite the long line. If you do decide to wait in the line, I recommend sending a friend over to Magnolia Bakery to get you a treat while you pass the time. Overall, the lamb and chicken were extremely tender and flavorful. The sauce and rice were great as well, complementing them perfectly. The service is very efficient, and they do have a few cards set up to maximize the efficiency. It was great, and I'd say it's worth trying if the line is short! Otherwise, I would pivot to another nearby great option that you can easily find.

    I've gotten adels every single time I've gone to NY…read more Yes line is long but this is the best halal cart. Workers are super nice too and friendly. I get the chicken and gyro mix with spicy rice. Rice is not spicy don't worry. Also their chicken is like marinated unlike some other halal carts. I get all sauces except bbq. The gf does all the sauces except red sauce cause that one IS spicy One time they accidentally put fries on my plate but now it's a non negotiable for me. Ask for it on the side if you don't want it to get soggy. If I'm feeling extra big back I throw some falafel on that shi too. If you wanna skip the line, just order on Grubhub. It's more expensive yes but worth it if you're not tryna wait an hour
