saus

was here for an evening snack/dinner with friends. the place itself is not super huge, so be sure to go get a seat inside. their kimchi fried chicken sandwich and homemadepoutinefries are definitely worth trying! was a pleasant experience! food, price, ambiance, service-4/5

come here for the fries andpoutineand extraordinary list of dipping sauces. feel free to overlook the sandwiches: they won't really leave an impression. i suppose this joint's popular with the nearby faneuil hall pub crowds, as the grub perfectly tames excess drinking. the aura is laissez-faire self-service, so don't expect clean tabletops and spotless floors. seating is a bit too "cozy."

a new restaurant serving belgian pomme frites, fried eggs and waffles . how could i not be drawn to such an appealing trio? saus , open less than one month, is located on union street , relatively close to fanueil hall, the north end and city hall. i had eagerly followed the progress of saus on twitter , and stopped by the other day for my first taste. and i will be returning. the restaurant is small, able to seat around 20 or so people, and has some interesting decor, lots of pictures of french comics. i like the decor, and think it injects some originality and personality into the space. you order your food at the counter, and the menu is small, concentrating on frites and waffles. pomme frites can be ordered in three sizes, costing $4, $5.50, and $7, and you receive a free sauce with your order. additional sauces, of which there are at least a dozen varieties, cost $0.75 each. the sauces range from truffle ketchup to cheddar & duvel ale . you can also getpoutine, in two sizes cost

try the poutine. we got the smallpoutineto share and it was excellent - authentic cheese curds melting around hot, salty, crisp fries and covered in house made gravy just like i remember from my years in quebec. staff is young, friendly, energetic and knowledgeable and i also loved the belgian comic-inspired decor. this place just opened but it feels like its been an integral part of the faneiul hall scene forever.

update: every subsequent visit to saus has been just terrific and fun. don't expect a full meal here, but to stop in for a casual street food snack as they often do in belgium, it is perfect. i've tried almost all of the different dipping sauces for the fries, and now sampled each of the waffles as well. the liege style waffle with salted caramel is the winner, narrowly edging out the fabulously decadent homemade nutella waffle. the staff knows me by name now, and probably my cardiologist as well.
