Potato Corner — Restaurant in San Jose

So good! I remember the first time I ever went to a Potato Corner in the Philippines as a child, so seeing them pop up more around the States is special. My go to is a regular fry with cheddar and sour cream seasoning. The fries are made fresh to order so you'll never get a soggy fry.

While I love that their portion sizes are huge, I do wish there was a smaller option for times when I just want a small snack and not a huge bucket of fries.

Once again, the fries are made fresh to order, so that means it's a bit of a wait, but there's even a sign stating they're fresh to order. There will be people who receive their order before you based on what they ordered. Like maybe their chicken is quicker to serve, your order is larger, etc. However when I was here, I only ordered one mega fry, and the woman in line behind me ordered 2 giga fries with the same seasoning as me. She received her order before me. She complained that the wait was too long so they ended up rushing her order and serving her before me just because she was complaining. If you give all the complainers what they want, they'll never learn and will always expect that. This affects the people who were waiting patiently and it's unfair. Other than that, the customer service were nice young people that seemed to get along...

I'm giving this 3 stars cause I love the cheddar flavored fries here.. They offer them in three sizes, jumbo, mega and giga. For a taste test and if you're the only one eating it, I suggest getting jumbo, 'cause its the cheapest and it is very flavorful that you might not finish it. But for me, loves fries so much~ I get the largest - giga, most of the time. The 2 missing stars from a perfect score is for the price and service. This is a bit pricey. jumbo is about $4 and giga at $7 This is very popular that there's almost always a long line, especially on weekends. I suggest to the management to get more people to work on weekends. there's usually only 2 in there. Adding one more counter to order would be nice as well. And please have a supervisor in there to watch your staff... they are quite slow... everywhere I go, and that adds to the hassle of just ordering some fries, and a bit pricey one at that, the service is a bit...

My nieces and nephew adore Potato Corner, especially when there was a location at Oakridge Mall, closest to our house. It’s closed now because they opened a 99 Ranch Market in the same spot. We used to visit weekly at that location, and even post-pandemic, despite a seasoning shortage at times, the Cajun BBQ flavor was a favorite.

The service has always been fantastic, although it can get busy, the wait is worth it. The consistency in quality never fails to make the kids and me happy. Many places fail flat at offering simple French fries but never at any of the PC locations we’ve been to in NorCal.

Recently, my three-year-old niece, a picky eater, fell in love with their chicken tenders. The staff, usually young but super nice and cool, contribute to the easy, chilled vibe at Potato Corner. We're definitely huge fans, and coming back for more- worth the drive, and crowds at...
