Crispy, well-seasoned waffle-cut fries — a better-than-average fast-casual side that pairs cleanly with the dipping sauces
American · Greylands · $$
Classic accompaniment that rounds out the meal at a spot where sides matter as much as the main event
Burgers · North San Jose · $
Thin-cut fries that are light and fresh when hot but turn soggy and pale within minutes of sitting — eat immediately or skip
American · Berryessa · $
Seasoned shoestring fries that hold up as a vehicle for the cheese sauce — solid but secondary to the chicken
American · West San Jose · $
Standard shoestring fries — solid, nothing revelatory, best dipped in Dave's sauce
Diner · Canoas West · $
Classic straight-cut fries — a solid companion to the burger, though not a reason to visit on their own
