Riley Street Station In East Aurora, New York

There is one food in Western New York that should be easy and serve, yet there are not many places that can do that.

One of my wife's favorite side dishes is Sweet Potato fries, but we have had more misses than hits when we order them around town. There are a couple of things that need to be done that are key for a good sweet potato fry.

What Makes For A Good Potato Fry?

Flavor: The fry should be sweet and salty, and that is where most places in Western New York go awry. Many places lack flavor, whether it's sweetness or saltiness. Many come with a side of honey or honey butter to bring sweetness to the fries, but many miss the mark.

Crispy: Sweet potato fries should be crispy on the outside and creamy on the inside. Many places in Western New York don't make their sweet potato fries crispy enough.

Cheap: While the price of everything has gone up, many places in Western New York charge a lot more than you think they would.

Best Spot For Sweet Potato Fries In Western New York

We finally found a great spot for sweet potato fries in the 716. Their fries are crispy, creamy, sweet, and salty. That spot is Riley Street Station in East Aurora. My wife and I went there last week for dinner, and she just had to try their sweet potato fries. They were amazing.

The best part, they have amazing burgers, dinners, and desserts too. They also have plenty of daily deals, including happy hour Monday through Friday from 3 - 6 pm. They also have gameday specials during the NFL season as well.
