This Atlas District newcomer boasts no fewer than a dozen types of fries on its menu — six that are dusted with various seasonings inspired by such flavors as sushi and Bloody Marys, and six in the smothered category. Among these, we loved the bowl of frites tossed with sherry-crab bisque and jumbo lump crabmeat, complete with chunky Old Bay tartar sauce and slivers of green onion.
