Ziggy Peelgoods Famous French Fries — Restaurant in St. John's

The quality of the food (at least at this location) has taken a nosedive over the past few months.

The food is not even the only thing that has gone downhill - the interior is falling into disrepair, and a large pile of dirt had been left in the middle of the floor. I...

The fries were served piping hot, and they were impressively fresh. However, within about 5 minutes, they became a soggy mess, turning into one big greasy clump. The undercooked potatoes contributed to the unpleasant, mushy texture, making them almost inedible. Unfortunately, the quality of the fries didn't match the level of service, and I was left...
