| - If you are only going to do one thing in your restaurant, you better do it right. In the case of Mad City Frites, I was expecting more and got less.
I thought the fries themselves were perfectly cooked-crispy on the outside, nice and soft on the inside. Complaint #1-Why put seasoning salt on the fries? They change the flavor and clashes with the sauces. Simple salt works just fine. Complaint #2-The sauces didn't hit the mark. With a small order, you get a choice on one sauce. With a large, you get 2. So, of course, we opted for the large.
With the choice of 10 sauces, we opted for the Game Day Garlic and Sconnie Sriracha. The game day garlic was light on the garlic and heavy on the lemon. The sriracha sauce was spicy but didn't real bring anything else to the table. I was also surprised they didn't just offer a simple aioli. Remember guys, sometimes less is more.
I was pleased to see they will be bringing wine and beer to the menu as I think this will be received well.
Sober, I probably won't be back. After few beers and without any other options available, well then, all bets are off!
