For the past couple of weeks one of my kids kept asking to return to a restaurant they've been to with their friends. For their french fries, specifically. It wasn't quite top of mind, but usually a situation where you happen to be eating somewhere else and that sparks that memory of wanting to go there.

You know, like how the number one topic of conversation at a restaurant is all of the other restaurants that you could have gone to.

You're at a burger place and someone says, "You know who has really good burgers...?" Well, a bit like that.

This time around we started heading to one place when my kid mentioned, 'oh yeah! we could always go here.' so we did.

Where is this magical place?

You know that restaurant that's attached to the bowling alley on Nob Hill? Yeah. That. And, yes, it does have a name.

Last Frontier Restaurant is attached to the bowling alley. You don't even need to go bowling to enjoy the food here, though. In fact, you can enter through the back and avoid the bowling alley all together.

They had several favorites on the menu like chicken strips, mozzorella sticks, fish and chips, french dip sandwiches, and more.

What stood out to me was something called Fuji Chicken made with, what they called, in-house Fuji sauce.

When I asked, it's what I thought. It's their own take an a teriyaki sauce but with varying spice levels. To be safe I got it right down the middle and it turned out that was about right for me.

It must be called Fuji Chicken as you get a mountain of rice with it. Neat!

I thought it was great and my kid got to experience those legendary fries again. A win for all.

LOOK: Best Beers From Every State

To find the best beer in each state and Washington D.C., Stacker analyzed January 2020 data from BeerAdvocate, a website that gathers user scores for beer in real-time. BeerAdvocate makes its determinations by compiling consumer ratings for all 50 states and Washington D.C. and applying a weighted rank to each. The weighted rank pulls the beer toward the list's average based on the number of ratings it has and aims to allow lesser-known beers to increase in rank. Only beers with at least 10 rankings to be considered; we took it a step further to only include beers with at least 100 user rankings in our gallery.
