    Giga with sour cream & onion.. so good.
    Anne C.

    This place has been at Plaza Bonita for a long time now... and it's always busy! While there's a variety of fries to choose from, as well as chicken strips.. original is definitely the most popular. I ordered a "giga" , their largest size, for a few of us to share. It was definitely a generous portion! We chose sour cream & onion for the seasoning and it was soOo yummy. Thin cut fries, they weren't greasy at all. And because their fries are made in small batches, it was basically made to order (not just seasoned to order).. I'd say the price was fair considering the portion and satisfaction level. Lol. It's definitely a yummy snack to munch on while walking around the mall. It was a weekday, around 1pm during summer and We waited about 15ish mins for our order.

    Their Loopy Fries with both Barbecue & Cheddar (asked for it mixed together)
    Alyssa A.

    A necessity anytime we eat at the mall food court! Always piping hot, fresh and crispy! We love it so much that we even considered looking into buying their flavor seasonings HAHA We think their Loopy Fries is their best item and always grab the biggest size since it's the best bang for your buck! My family always gets it with both BBQ + Cheddar seasonings flavors. Our 2nd favorite flavor combo would be BBQ + Sour Cream & Onion. Typical wait time to receive your food is about 20 mins which is why I put 4 stars, since it's always quite a long of a wait for just for fries. So I suggest if you are going to grab multiple items from any of the other places in the food court, to go put your order in here first then go get the other stuff!

    Cone shaped paper. Deceiving amount
    Monique E.

    I spent over $10 on buying the giga size fries and while we were eating it I was expecting the fries to keep going to the bottom of the container but NO! It stopped because they used a cone shaped paper that doesn't fill up the tub! There was a good amount when you first look at it but the amount is just as much maybe even less than a large fries from McDonald's. Just beware when you buy from here. I'm definitely buying the potato corner powder next time and just going to McDonald's and shake it myself.

    Cheese and sour cream

    My bf raved about growing up on Potato Corner for so long, and I finally came down to SD to try it! Giga (cheese and sour cream): 5/5 This is the ultimate flavor combo for Potato Corner. To get two flavors, you do need to purchase the largest size. They cooked the fries fresh to order. My order was hot, and the flavor was delicious. Service: 3/5 The employee taking our order was very kind and patient. However, the service here is very slow--it can take around 30 minutes for your order to be ready. Supposedly, the norm is to order first, then walk around the mall and hope it's done by then. Ambiance: 3/5 The shop is very small with limited space. You order and then pick it up. There is plenty of food court seating. Some of the materials they use don't seem the cleanest. The self-serve bar for napkins and utensils could be cleaner as well. Overall: I love Potato Corner. Despite the wait time, you'll always catch me coming back!

    We missed Potato Corner so much in National City, so we decided to make the drive for some fun and enjoy their sour cream and BBQ potato fries. But wow, the wait was so long, it took almost an hour! I know it's worth it, but waiting that long for a Giga Bite of fries is tough. The servers didn't seem as energetic; they looked tired, which is understandable since they were busy, but it did take away a bit from the experience.

    Sour cream and onions
    Collin A.

    We like to come back to this place because it tastes so good, and we crave for it occasionally. But when we came today the experience was not so pleasant. The guy with the tattoos and glasses is super unfriendly, he gave us a lot of attitude when taking our order and while waiting for our order we observed that other customers also got the same unkind treatment. Otherwise everyone else is very kind, and we will be coming back again. Hopefully not to him taking our orders though.

    Sour cream and onion fries - Mega size
    Trisha C.

    BLUF- amazing fries but the wait is TOO LONG I've gone multiple times and expect a wait of at least 20-30 min. I know they are known for having fresh fries but it's ridiculous. I wish they would have a text system or something to let you know when your order is ready so you don't have to wait around near the stall. They also got rid of the smallest size which is jumbo so I had to get the mega size. Pricy ~$8 but everything is so expensive these days. My fave seasonings are the cheddar and sour cream. Fries are fresh. Crispy outside, soft inside. I love it so I come back despite the wait. Would rate higher if it wasn't for the wait/order system. Ambience- it's in a mall food court so food court type seating. Plenty of parking at the mall.

    The counter -FOH

    The food has always been good as it is french fries and wings. How could it be wrong right? But what gets to me is the fact it is a 45minute wait and with no assurance of you knowing it's ready. Compared from the local place we have in Vegas, it does gave the wait but there is a pager so u know when it's ready. For this location - they should have one as its location is at the mall and lots of foot traffic and business. The staffing: very unpleasant and the vibe says it all. No smiles, no warm greetings not even a thank you! Goodness. That 45minutes wait? Heck. If not for my son, i wont stay this long.

    I love French fries. If I had pick top 5 foods, French fries would be in there. This place markets their fries as the "world's best fries", and wow that's a lie. I chose their regular fries since that's, theoretically, what they're known for, but they were just standard frozen french fries. Nothing special about them. Nothing that makes them, "the world's best fries". The flavoring was fine, but I think it could have used more and it wasn't particularly strong. All in all, not worth the out-of-the-way trip I made to pick these fries up to eat on the side with the other food I got. The employees there weren't the most attentive or clear. By coincidence, there were two orders under my first name, but they didn't make it clear which one it was. The recipe doesn't indicate the flavoring you select so I had to double check it was actually added to my order and the employee looked at me like I had two heads. Look, I get it. You're working in the food industry at a food court in a mall. I've worked in a retail job in a mall before, and it sucks. So, I don't blame them, but it was annoying in the moment. Summary: Fine for a mall snack.

    Aqui se puede elegir el combo! Y ella quería q se lo dijeran las niñas verbalmente

    Been awhile since I had been down here. The last few times in San Diego, I had been craving the…read moresalt and pepper wings from here, but didn't have time to come down to get them. That changed this trip. I went twice in the 4 days we were there! First night I got just an order of salt and pepper wings. $23.50 or so, and they hooked it up with about15 wings (says 13 to an order, but we got a couple more than that, I think). The wings were PERFECT! It was my Sons first time trying them. He instantly fell in love! We ate them outside and went to town. Cant get a better wing, anywhere. Large, crispy, salty, garlicky. Perfect wings! Second time there, I went with the lunch special for the salt and pepper wings. You get 10 wings, and a container of plain fried rice. Total was like $18.50. Once again, wings were bomb! I love scooping the garlic and green onions on top of the wings and biting in. Such a good bite! I love this place! Their other food is very good, too, but come for the salt and pepper wings...they are life altering, and the best wings anywhere.

    So good! It's fast,…read morethe portions are large and the food is incredibly tasty! Get the beef chow fun. Nice sauce and noodles are chewy. Get the vegetarian fried rice. Nice use of mushrooms in this and the rice is nicely cooked. Get the sweet and sour fish fillet. Big portions and the fish is breaded but flakes nicely when you eat it. Get the salt and pepper chicken wings. FIRE. My cousin has a disability and I just want to thank the staff here for being so kind, patient and understanding to us as we had our meal. If I could give a hundred stars, I would. This place is a must go to for great Chinese food in San Diego.
