Another tough one on Roncy to really qualify! These guys have some of the very, very best french fries I've ever eaten (Yukon gold, fry-truck-style, with fleur de sel, fine ground pepper, and smoked paprika) -- so simple yet so delicious!
On the strength of those fries, I'd be tempted to say 5 star... seriously, they're that good (the server, who may have been Brad, said he always recommends them over the side salad). I suspect they're not as good takeaway -- fries don't do well in containers -- so eat in or don't blame me.
The sandwich I had with them was somewhere between "meh" and "a-ok", partially due to my surprise at learning it was chilled despite containing *grilled* eggplant and *roasted* red pepper. I expected a warm, panini-like sammy (on a cold, rainy day), and got a chilled one. Bummer. 2.5 star, but not a deal breaker by any stretch, and those fries are good enough to forgive greater tragedies than a temperature miscalculation! Besides, maybe I should have asked...
The space is small but well laid out, its atmosphere relaxed and welcoming; I'm told it can get VERY hot in the summer, but that heat retention played as a strength on a chilly day in late October. All in all a lovely little place to have a sit down lunch.
I'll definitely be back, and I look forward to trying other menu items -- with a side of fries, naturally!
