Critical Assessments

The triple-fry technique employed at Hoffman's Bar & Grill produces a steak fry of aspirational exterior and present as a rumor interior. The canola is evident and appropriate. The grease is generous in the manner of a host who means it. The portion is restrained. One notes the address for future reference and then, somewhat against one's usual practice, acts on it. The fry asks only to be appreciated. At Hoffman's Bar & Grill, one appreciates.

P. Illingworth·July 2025

The fry at Hoffman's Bar & Grill does not arrive unannounced. Its aroma precedes it through the dining room with the confidence of someone who has reserved well in advance. The steak cut is executed with precision. The triple-fried exterior is aspirational. The interior presents a potato present as a rumor. The grease does not call attention to itself, which is what one hopes for from grease. One proceeds. One is glad one did.
