Js Mighty Fry: Hearty Mains, Hāngi and Loaded Fries in Ōtara, Auckland

On Rapson Road in Ōtara, Js Mighty Fry serves what it proudly calls The Food of the South — a bold, generous menu of hearty mains, gourmet burgers, loaded fries and refreshing drinks. This is South Auckland comfort cooking with real range: one visit might call for a 250g rump steak with garlic prawns, the next for a hāngi packed with kūmara, or a burger built on fried bread instead of a bun.

The Mighty Mains are the backbone of the menu. Slow cooked ribs come covered in house rib sauce with coleslaw and fries; battered hoki anchors the fish n chips; crumbed chicken schnitzel and grilled pork chops n eggs cover the classics; and the Dinner Plate stacks potato and surimi salads, chop suey, marinated steak on rice and marinated chicken thigh for anyone who wants it all. All-day breakfast fans can turn to mince on toast with fried eggs or the Mighty Breaky — eggs on toasted focaccia with bacon, hashbrowns, sausage and mushroom sauce.

Burgers, hāngi and mighty meats

The Gourmet Burgers arrive in brioche buns with two cheeses, salad and egg as standard. The Mighty Beef goes further, balancing a 250g prime mince patty on a whole chicken breast, while the Hawaiian adds bacon, pineapple and beetroot. The one to know is the JS Māori Burger: a large fried bread patty layered with bacon, 200g of marinated steak and onion, egg and mushroom sauce, fries on the side.

Hāngi appears as a special served the proper way — chicken, pork and lamb with potato, kūmara and pumpkin, stuffing and cabbage, and a drink included. For feeding a crowd, the Mighty Meats pile pulled lamb, pulled pork, steak or chicken onto fries or rice, topped with mushroom or mint sauce, and the On Rice list does beef chop suey simply and well.

Seafood holds its own here too. Starters run from salt & pepper squid and sweet Thai mussels with ciabatta to prawn twisters, buffalo wings and cheesy garlic bread, and the fresh mussel seafood chowder comes either in a bowl or — in the spirit of the name — ladled over hot fries. Creamy pasta fans get prawn fettuccine and a chicken-and-bacon carbonara, while sandwiches like the slow-cooked lamb with mint sauce and rolls from pulled pork to the Steak n Egg Mushy Round out the options.

Fries, sweets and the smaller stuff

Of course, the name is the menu's promise: fries and wedges, plain or loaded. Kids are properly looked after with cheeseburgers, hotdogs on a stick and nuggets, all served with fries, and thickshakes and milkshakes make it an easy after-school stop.

Save room if you can. Belgian waffles come out crispy and fluffy with Whittakers chocolate or butterscotch sauce and whipped cream — add fresh seasonal fruit and ice cream, and choose single or double stack — while trifle and banoffee cover the classic-dessert crowd.
