Budget-Friendly Steak Frites Are Trending in Atlanta | Eater Atlanta

"Launched in 2023 as a prix-fixe, steak frites–only concept intended to “strike the balance of being special and quality-driven without the steep price tag for guests,” the focused menu aims to make steak-and-fries feel special without a steep check. The prix-fixe runs $49.95 per person and includes crusty sourdough, a simple green salad, a 7-ounce Prime New York Strip from Creekstone Farms and endless hand-cut, beef tallow–fried Belgian frites; guests can upgrade for $20 to an 8-ounce American Wagyu strip from Chatel Farms. Chef Ford Fry says, “I’ve always loved hyper-focused menus that offer one thing done really well. L’Entrecote, a concept from Paris, has always been on my mind, and steak and fries are one of my favorite things to eat,” describing the concept as intentionally simple and tightly focused." - Su-Jit Lin
