Mr. Fries Man is a family-owned restaurant part of a revolutionary underground foodie frenzy

Mr. Fries Man is a black family-owned restaurant chain that specializes in loaded french fries. The founder of Mr. Fries Man is Craig Batiste, a Los Angeles native who started selling his fully loaded fries in random parking lots before opening his first brick-and-mortar location in Gardena, California. Since then, the chain has expanded to over 20 locations across the country, including one in Houston, Texas.

Mr. Fries Man’s menu features imaginative toppings on fries, such as jerk chicken, shrimp, and vegan options. The restaurant has received positive reviews for its unique offerings and quality of food.

in 2016, Craig Batiste, co-owner along with his wife Dorothy, is one of several urban chefs in LA who have worked their way up from a home kitchen to a restaurant in Gardena, CA. Their strong social media presence captivated their audience, which resulted in a remarkable following.
