Gahanna Grill

Hello! Welcome back to another installment of Tyler’s French Fry thoughts! For this review, I went to Gahanna, and reviewed the local Gahanna Grill. Directly across the street from a previous review (Cafe Creekside), I had my eyes on this place for some time, and last weekend was finally the perfect time to review this place. So how does it stand up?

Address: 82 Granville St, Gahanna, OH 43230

Cut: Straight Cut (fast food/bar and tavern style)

Thickness: 5/10

Crispiness: 5.5/10

Salt/Seasoning: No salt/seasoning.

Price: $3.99/serving.

To start, these fries are straight cut, with the fast food style of exterior texture (I often call this bar/tavern style, as many, many bars have a very similar french fry with this texture). This just means a rough, bumpy exterior texture, without potato skins. This cut tends to retain grease, making it very good for bars to serve with alcohol. These were served with no salt/seasoning. The exterior of the fry is properly crispy, but the interior has an incomplete flaky texture, like it’s partially flaky, but not all the way there on a consistent basis. The fries were generally well cooked, and were on the better side of this particular type of cut, though it may be my least favorite cut in general, as it really amplifies any imperfections in the cooking oil. All in all, I would recommend these fries as perfectly solid fries if you’re in the area.
