During the week of their grand opening, I decided to go in ASAP because this restaurant ran out of stock the Saturday before, due to it being so busy! That's pretty impressive!
The restaurant serves Belgium-style fries, specialty drinks, and desserts (waffles, brownies, and cookies). I originally, just ordered fries, but then decided I should order a drink too.
When I walked in, the interior looked very up to date. The seats didn't look all that comfortable, but they ended up being comfortable throughout the entirety of my meal.
The staff was very friendly and were willing to answer my questions with almost flawless knowledge of the menu. Considering how they haven't been open a short period of time, I was pretty impressed.
After ordering a large fry and 24 oz drink, it took about 10-15 minutes to get my food. I chose a large because it came with 3 dipping sauces. The medium comes with two and the small comes with one. Each additional sauce is $0.50. I was honestly expecting the fries to come wrapped in a paper cone (as is done in Europe), no big deal. Instead, it was just in a disposable paper fry tray. Though, I really don't think that affected the taste of the fries.
Onto my order. The fries were... pretty tasty, but I wasn't blown away. I would think if "fryz" is the second of two specialties in the name of the restaurant, they would be out of this world (or at least the US). I have to be fair. I am very particular about my fries. I like them to be nice and meaty, yet fluffy inside with a super crisp, golden/golden-brown outside. I like my fries with minimal salt/seasoning, so I can get a decent amount of potato flavor in each bite. I would say about one third of my fries were up to snuff. However, all of the fries were slightly too salty (I had to frequently bush of my fingers).
I expected all of my fries to be at least crispy, since they all should be twice fried, but that wasn't the case. I'm probably being nit-picky, but at $4.50 for a large fry, I would expect almost all of them to be nearly perfect.
There are 20 dipping sauces to choose from. I had their mayo, andalouse, and fry sauce. I loved the andalouse, a fry sauce with some heat (red pepper) and their fry sauce was legit.
There are many other ways to spruce up your fries. You can add chili, bacon, cheese, and other spices to change them up a little bit. They also do Canadian Poutine.
My drink was delicious. I decided to just create my own with Monster, grapefruit syrup, and fresh lemon.
The choices are nearly endless when it comes to their drinks. The have 16 signature drinks and literally hundreds of combinations, if you decide to create your own. If you want to "pose like a pro", there are 5 different ways to make your specialty (or custom) drink even more special.
I didn't have a chance to try any off the desserts offered, but each waffle looked very enticing as they passed by.
One thing I thought was cool about this place, is it's locally owned (I believe, by a former USU student) and operated. They also have a drive thru service in case you want to eat on the go.
I would recommend making a quick stop with a couple of friends or family members, grabbing a couple of baskets of fries, and trying a few different sauces. I kept hearing "woot woot!", so you may want to give that drink a try. It might not be a bad idea to "make it float"... or if you're watching your figure, "make it slim".
I couldn't find a menu online or on other foodie apps, so I attached one below.
