I love frisky fries! They have a good amount of options to choose from and the service is always fast because there is usually only one person manning it sometimes two, but orders are made and usually ready in no longer than 10 minutes! But they'll be very hot! My favorite is the pulled pork! And they do have outside seating but only one corner table inside because it's an incredibly tiny shop as a whole.

I was at an event recently who used the Friskie Fries food truck. There were some really interesting choices of "dressed" french fries
I opted for the Tiger King (General Tso's chicken, mandarin oranges and scallions). The fries were crispy and well done. There were only three little pieces of chicken on the dish, but they were very tasty.
Overall a good choice for a quick meal where you get fries and something else on top.

We found this place in Downtown, Providence Rhode Island. This spot is an about a 5 minute walk from Johnson and Wales. We order three different types to try and shared them all. The best was the Buffalo Chicken Friskie Fries. Boneless chicken bites, lots of blue cheese dressing and crumbles and of course hot sauce. The second was the Steak and Cheese, they were very tasty. My wife really enjoyed the Loaded Potato Fries, she put some the malt vinegar on them and it was really good.
We were greeted immediately by friendly staff. I thought the price for the beverages were a bit much. $3.22 for a can of soda is a bit excessive. Definitely worth a try if you're in the area looking for a quick snack.

The food was VERY good! Definitely try at least once. This location is super small, no indoor seating, just picnic tables outside. Super fast service. My only complaint is that it is super pricey. Water/soda shouldnt be $3/can. And four orders of fries shouldnt have been $50.

This is one of those times I wish 3.5 stars was an option. The place is small, but very cool and specializing in French fries and doing it well is a great idea. They offer multiple toppings, seasonings, spices etc and they even have desert fries!
I checked this place out for the first time today and it lived up to the hype I heard. I'm not sure how it's been there so long but I had never heard of it before! Fries are great, no doubt.
My issue is the size and the price. I wish there was a smaller size you could order at a lower price point, because they are expensive. Especially when you'd like to try multiple flavors.
That's about all I can say for now. I'm sure I'll visit again, but it will be a special treat kind of thing for sure.
Thanks!!

Delicious crispy salty fresh fries. A lot of fries. They're not cheap per se but they are really yummy.

Fries tasted like dollar store fries that were fried, left out to cool, then refried. Bland, and very expensive. Not much was put on them in terms of toppings. If you include a tip, almost $16!
To be fair, their Providence location is a a solid 5 and I've had wonderful experiences there.
Update: They reached out and thanked me for the review, offered me a free dressed fry. These folks are very friendly!

If you're looking for a healthy, low calorie dish, you won't find it here! However, if you're looking for a crispy, tasty, treat, you've arrived at the right place. Friskie Fries used to operate out of a food truck and has now expanded to 5 retail locations, 4 in Rhode Island and 1 in Massachusetts. We've visited their Providence location a few times, it's very small and very popular (pre-coronavirus). The fries always come out piping hot, and they layer their ingredients, so they are not just on top, but integrated throughout the box of fries.
On this visit, we were at their Johnston, RI location, which is even smaller than the Providence venue. It was curbside delivery, and we sat at the solitary picnic table on the side of the building. We ordered Buck Naked Fries with Sea Salt, Philly Cheese Steak Fries, and Poutine with Handmade Vermont Cheddar Curd and Brown Gravy Fries. I'm going to share a secret with everyone in this review. If you take lots of hot, crispy fries and add cheddar, curds, salt or gravy to them, they are likely to taste great! And these did not disappoint. As an aside, certain ingredients can make some of the fries a little soggy, but I think that's a reasonable trade-off and a tasty result.
So, if you're seeking a flavor and calorie intensive destination, this would be a great choice. We look forward to a return visit. Note that the very hard-working cook was observing COVID-19 best practices including wearing a mask, allowing only one person or family inside at one-time (to order), and all the patrons we saw in the parking lot were also wearing masks and keeping their distance. Kudos to all.Helpful 112Thanks 0Love this 113Oh no 0 - Apr 6, 2022
If all you want is a quick fix of comfort food to fill you up, this is a great place to get that craving satisfied. With a variety of options, we got three of them to taste at home. We got the namesake 'Friskie Fries' along with a 'Tiger King' and the 'Alleycat'. All three flavors were delicious and more than enough to satisfy us for another meal or two. If it weren't for the fact that we live close by, we would have never known about them since they do not advertise this place anywhere. But if you want to satisfy that craving for fries with flavor, they are a great choice!!

Customer service! Had a mix up with a missing item from an Uber eats order and one of their staff drove it themselves over to me. Long time frisky fries customer and will remain that way.
Poutine is also 10/10 highly recommended!Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0
