Amazing French Fries in Houston

We can say thank you to one of our Founding Fathers, Thomas Jefferson, for introducing “potatoes, fried in a French manner” to America in 1802. French fries have been near and dear to our hearts ever since. We’ve made them in all shapes and sizes, dipped them in sauces galore, and made entire meals out of them. Let’s celebrate this diverse and universal food on National French Fry Day – Friday, July 13th.

Oh My Gogi 

Oh My Gogi French Fries

Korean and Mexican flavors come together for an “oh my” explosion in every bite. Oh My Gogi food truck is roaming Houston offering sandwiches, quesadillas, tacos, dumplings, and today’s star, french fries. They have five creative french fry combinations to choose from. We recommend their OMG! fries loaded with Korean beef and colby jack cheese. You can find their weekly schedule on their Instagram and website

Bar Boheme 

Satisfy your french fry craving in style while sitting in a 6,000 square foot garden surrounded by Shona stone sculptures from Zimbabwe. Bar Boheme is quietly nestled in Montrose offering cocktails, beer, wine, and food. When a dish comes out and the entire table screams out to their excitement, you know it’s the Vietnamese Fries. We recommend ordering them Bangkok Style, which adds more flavors and smoked pork shoulder.
