Critical Assessments

In a city of approximately eight million opinions about french fries, Greco has one of its own. The matchstick fry is single-fried in sunflower. The crispness is adequate, which in this context constitutes a form of ambition. The potato flavor is present as a rumor. The grease is generous in the manner of a host who means it. The portion is reasonable. One visits once and thereafter considers the matter settled. Best ordered without accompaniment. The fry requires no defense counsel.

V. Prudhomme·October 2024

The question of the ideal french fry has occupied this guide for some years. At Greco, one arrives closer to an answer. The matchstick fry, single-fried in sunflower, presents crispness that is adequate, which in this context constitutes a form of ambition and a potato interior that is present as a rumor. The grease is generous in the manner of a host who means it. Proximity to an answer is, in this case, sufficient. One does not return. This information is provided without judgment.
