Burgers & Fries: Fry guide
Tater tots
Short North Tavern, Short North
A slight sweetness and a firm crispness make these tots more than your basic TV-dinner fare.
Chips
Claddagh Irish Pub, Brewery District
The British aren't exactly food experts, but they got this right: Nothing complements beer-battered fish quite like thick wedges of fried potato.
Waffle fries
Schmidt's Restaurant and Sausage Haus, German Village
These substantial, crispy fries with a criss-cross pattern are prized for their ability to pick up ketchup with ease.
Curly fries
Tommy's Diner, Franklinton
These super-crispy, paprika-seasoned swirls give you something fun to wrap your tongue around.
Crinkle-cut fries
Jack's Sandwich Shop, Downtown
The cafeteria staple sustained you through many an earth-science lecture, and still adds salty satisfaction to any meal. Consider them ribbed for your pleasure.
Sweet potato fries
Tip Top Kitchen and Cocktails, Downtown
Slicing yams into delicious french-fried slivers and dipping them in spicy mayonnaise? Sweet!
Steak fries
Barley's Ale House, Arena District
If you're looking for more potato, less fry, go for these thick-cut slabs of starch.
Shoestring fries
High Street Grill, Downtown
But if you're after the highest fried-stuff-to-potato ratio, shoestring fries are where it's at.
