What to get and how it's made
The food
The Crispy Chicken Mash Bowl and Spicy Chicken Loaded Fries are neighborhood favorites — and don't sleep on our signature potato-shred crispy tenders.
Four steps. Pick a base — fresh mashed potatoes, loaded fries, or potato cubes. Pick a protein. Pick your toppings. Then finish with a house-made sauce. Every bowl is assembled to order, so you can make it as loaded or as simple as you like.
It's our signature, and you won't find it anywhere else in Albany. Instead of a flour breading, the chicken is wrapped in golden shredded potato, which fries up into an unusually crispy shell while the tenderness stays inside. Available in 2-piece ($4.99, includes 1 sauce), 5-piece ($9.99, 2 sauces), and 10-piece ($19.99, 3 sauces).
Yes — Traditional Mash Wings in 4-piece ($6.99), 8-piece ($12.99), 12-piece ($18.99), and 20-piece ($31.99). They start as raw chicken wings and are marinated, hand-breaded and fried here, not reheated from frozen. The 20-piece is the one to get for a group or a game.
Seven to choose from: honey mustard, cheese sauce, BBQ, garlic ranch, blue cheese, our house Mashy sauce, and Fire Kiss Mayo for anyone who wants heat. Five of them we make in-house — our house Mashy sauce, Fire Kiss Mayo, garlic ranch, Green Zing, and the Lemon Yogurt dressing. Tender and wing orders come with sauces included, and you can always add more.
They're four different ways to have the same fresh potatoes. Mash bowls are creamy mashed potatoes as the base. Loaded fries are exactly that — fries under the toppings. Potato cubes are crispy, Cajun-seasoned cubed potatoes. SMASHed potatoes are whole potatoes smashed flat and crisped up. Same toppings, proteins, and sauces across all of them, and the portions are the same too — so pick the texture you're in the mood for, not the size.
The potatoes are peeled and mashed in-house every morning. The wings start as raw chicken wings and are marinated, hand-breaded and fried here. The chicken tenders are hand-breaded from raw as well, and on the potato-shred crispy tenders we shred the potato ourselves and wrap it around the chicken before it goes in the fryer. Five of our sauces are made in-house: our house Mashy sauce, Fire Kiss Mayo, garlic ranch, Green Zing, and the Lemon Yogurt dressing.
Yes. We peel and mash fresh potatoes every morning rather than working from instant or pre-made, which is the whole reason the texture is what it is. Five of our sauces are made in-house as well.
Gluten, meat, heat
Dietary
Yes. Our fresh-mashed potatoes are gluten-free, along with our Hot Potato Pie, Beef Chili Fries, and Cheesy Bacon Fries. Our fries cook in a dedicated fryer that never touches breaded items. Gluten-free sauces include honey mustard, cheese sauce, BBQ, garlic ranch, blue cheese, and our house Mashy sauce. Please note our gravy and most breaded meats are not gluten-free — just ask and we'll help you build a gluten-free bowl.
Yes — try the Cheesy Veggie Smashed Potato or the Crispy Tofu Smashed Potato, plus build-your-own bowls with veggie toppings.
Not currently. Our vegetarian dishes contain dairy, so they aren't vegan. If that changes we'll say so here.
No — our meat is not halal certified. If you're avoiding non-halal meat, our vegetarian dishes are the Cheesy Veggie Smashed Potato and the Crispy Tofu Smashed Potato.
Only a little. The Spicy Chicken Loaded Fries and the Spicy Chicken Sandwich are the hot ones — lightly spicy chicken with Fire Kiss Mayo and jalapeños. Our potato cubes are Cajun-seasoned, which is mild rather than hot. Everything else on the menu is not spicy.
