C’mon, now. Sometimes you just need them. Just out of the fryer. Thick. Sprinkled with salt. Covered in ketchup. There’s really no denying these starch-heavy puppies. They want to be eaten. With a sea of restaurants and fast-food joints across Long Island, there are really only a few, however, that can deemed “choice” or “select” enough to be bestowed with the supreme honor of Best French Fries on Long Island. Thank goodness Best Of L.I. voters did the choosing, because if we had to eat them all…well let’s just say bathing suit season would be even further away than the summer. But what an experience Long Islanders must have had weighing in.

Five years in a row, this nostalgic hamburger stand gets the most votes for their freshly made fries. They may resemble the big chains’ fries, but at All American they peel piles of spuds each day, slice them and fry them just right, yielding a perfect long, thin version, crisp outside, creamy inside…and addictive.
