Sway's Canadian Tribute

Taking inspiration from poutine, arguably Canada's best-known dish, Sway is the place to go if you're in the mood for fries with a twist. Their classic option (pictured above, B170) sees fries layered with traditional gravy and melted cheese, while their more original options (starting B220) come with crazier toppings like pulled pork or butter chicken.

Shari Shari's Healthier Substitute

Little Beast's Loaded Fries

This might be one of the most innovative fries on the list. Little Beast's wagyu cheese fries (B480) are a meal all on their own, but also make for a good shared plate.
