I asked several locals in the city where to try the best Belgian fries, and almost everyone recommended this place. When we arrived, it was immediately clear why it’s so popular. The owner was incredibly friendly and took the time to explain every item on the menu to us, describing the different flavors and options in detail. I asked why this shop is so well known, and he told us that it’s one of the oldest fry shops in the city. The quality was genuinely better compared to another place we had tried earlier. I especially loved the fried cheese bites—they were absolutely delicious. If you visit this city and want to try authentic Belgian fries, you can come here with confidence. It’s definitely one of the best spots in town.
I’m still not sure if this Frituur n1 street restaurant is objectively bad, or if it just personally offended me. Seated nearby were a group of French-speaking customers loudly praising the place—though I couldn’t tell if they were locals or tourists. Their enthusiasm made me curious, so I decided to try something off-menu that caught my eye: “Soflaki” labeled as meat. I asked the cashier: Is the Soflaki veal or something else? He confidently replied: “Yes, it’s veal – kalfsvlees!” What arrived? Seasoned lung with onions and spices – definitely not veal. It cost €6.50. Then came the fries fiasco. The menu clearly stated Friet €2.50. but charged me €5.50 for the exact same medium fries. The restaurant is open at night, but pricey and not worth the quality. I gave it 2 stars only because I was starving and there were no other options nearby. At night, not many places are open in the area.
Good friet near the church in the center of Antwerpen. Super kawaii confusing between Flemish and Dutch, no patat but friet, no frikandel but curry sausages please one without curry saus. Friet is crispy. Two lokalen indoor to enjoy the order.
Real Belgian fries - you can actually lightly taste the beef tallow. Not the best fries you can get in Belgium (prefer Frites Atelier), but good for the location and price. They are salted (even if other reviews state they aren't). Mayonnaise was not to our liking, but that's personal preference.
Deserves all the hype. I just wished they didn’t have to deal with drunk straight men, but I guess that’s the customer at night. They are very sweet behind the counter. Highly recommend
