    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.

    Malcolm R.

    These are definitely better than most any french fry you'll have. Whatever gives them the dark / orange color also adds flavor. They're crispy, seasoned, and fried in something good. Comes with dipping sauces. Lemon aoili is the one they use most, and it's a great pick. There's about 5-6 others. There are huge lines for this stand at Smorgasburg for a reason.

    original with lemon garlic aioli (back), chipotle ranch (left), and poblano fraiche (right). so good.

    10/10 If you're…read morevisiting New York, this place is an absolute must try! I ordered the Chicken Platter, and it definitely lived up to the hype. The platter comes with perfectly seasoned chicken over rice, along with fresh lettuce and tomatoes. I got the famous white sauce and hot sauce on the side so I could add as much as I wanted, and both took the dish to the next level. The chicken was flavorful, tender, and paired perfectly with the rice. The portion was generous and incredibly filling, making it an excellent value. Everything tasted fresh, and I honestly enjoyed every bite. That said, it was so good I could probably eat two platters! The line was long, but don't let that discourage you it moved steadily and was absolutely worth the wait. Whether you're a local or just visiting NYC, this is one of those iconic spots you have to experience at least once. it!

I don't go as much as I use to, as the price has more than doubled since 2017/18. However, that has nothing to do with my rating. My problem is that meats have gone downhill. I used to love gyro meat - never sure what it was exactly lamb or beef - but now it is just gross and greasy. The chicken which used to be excellent is now very dry. The white sauce is great and the rice is fine, but that is it. Not worth getting anymore. Maybe one of their competitors is better, can't really be worse.

    When we got here around 6 PM on a Friday, there was already kind of a long line, so I don't even…read morewant to think about what it would've looked like 5 hours from then. But I'm very glad I got this now so I don't have to care about how long that potential line would be. It was around 20-25 minutes before we ordered and got our food. I had the mix platter - which consists of lamb and chicken over yellow rice with pita and lettuce. To that I added fries, white sauce, and hot sauce. Although the hot sauce was weirdly just missing. I guess they forgot it. I just have to mention the portion first. This is a gigantic amount of food. Anyone who can finish all of this in one sitting has either just had a bacchanalian night of drinking or has appetite of a mammoth. I respect them either way. But I got two-thirds through this before tapping out. Sometimes with huge portions you see the volume being disproportionally overstuffed by copious amounts of rice, but here they had equal portions of lamb and chicken as well. It's truly an equitable extravagance. Outside the portion, I really liked the taste as well. The fries were a fantastic addition I would recommend to everyone coming here - as they mixed in with the rice to add that extra textural crunch (they actually stayed crispy basically the whole time). The lamb was quite fatty and very juicy. The chicken was mostly standard, but decent still. I liked the way the pita gave you a different way to eat rather than just with a spoon - so you could mix up the eating mechanisms. The first thing you need to do is mix everything together; that's how you get the white sauce to coat everything. And this white sauce is really good. I really wish they hadn't forgotten the hot sauce as it would've added the necessary spiciness to how rich and garlicky the white sauce was. For just 13 dollars ($3 addon for the fries) this is an incredible deal. Probably some of the best value you can find in Midtown. Overall, this place that justifies a lot of the hype. I will say I wouldn't wait more than 30 minutes in line for this, but if it's less than that - I'll be jumping at the chance. 9.25/10

I've heard so many great things about the cheong fun here and how cheap it is. I was recommended to go earlier in the day since they leave early or whenever they're sold out. Considering it's street food, take the cleanliness to your liking. My family and I got 5 different bowls and the total came out to $18 which is NOT bad at all. They offer soy sauce, peanut sauce, and/or chili sauce. Definitely only get the soy sauce for the protein options and peanut sauce + soy sauce for the plain one! Take it from me, my dad ordered all three sauces in all of our bowls and it was too much flavor mixing together in your mouth.

This time I found the opportunity and am glad I can say I've been now! Its literally a small cart on the corner of the street intersection. There was a line formed and so we just followed suit. No place to sit to eat, so just be mindful of that - especially since the containers they give you the food in can be super hot! We ordered one fresh shrimp rice roll, and waited about 10 minutes for our food to come out. It is PIPING hot so it was hard to hold and eat, but we managed. The first few bites were delicious and the rice roll was super silky. However I felt like since it was shoved inside the plastic container, the rice roll keeps cooking in its own heat, and thus got overly goopy. Still, I enjoyed the cheap snack on the street, but have definitely had better long-standing rice rolls in NY.
