Danville Restaurant Has Best Fries In Bay Area: Mercury News

DANVILLE, CA —Fat Maddie’s, a family-owned restaurant providing local farm-fresh food, makes some of the best fries in the region, according to a new list from The Mercury News.

“Named for one of the family’s goats, Fat Maddie’s uses organic eggs, herbs and produce from the family farm just outside Danville for its artisanal salads, sandwiches, gyros and specialty burger,” the paper said of the restaurant.

The paper named Fat Maddie’s curly, sweet potato, garlic, and garlic-feta fries as standouts, but singled out the Buffalo and chili cheese fries as a standout. The fries contain chili and chunks of beef, and are “a meal all by themselves.”

Pete and Kelli Stephanos opened the first Fat Maddie’s in San Ramon in 2010, which was also included on the Mercury News list. They serve “Southern food with Southern charm and the freshest ingredients” from the farm at the base of Mt. Diablo. In addition to Maddie the goat, the farm contains Charlie the goat, a flock of chickens, a few horses, and a family of deer.

In addition to its fries, the Danville location at 3483 Blackhawk Plaza offers a full menu of sliders, salads, flatbreads, sandwiches, burgers, vegetarian meals, pasta, and local wines and beers. Call 925-309-4752 or visit fatmaddies.com for more information.
