Searching on Google, I find this.

Now, I understand slightly more. Potato is fries, rather than an actual potato.

I assume Riko is saying something akin to, "Would you like fries with that," in English. One of the people who answered said:

"Isn't it because there were no menus in the past?

Now, if you don't say that you just want a burger, it's automatically served as a menu."

However, as far as I know, 「ご一緒にいかがですか?」 is also used normally, with the aforementioned connotation.

Might be tricky to translate.
It's "would you want fires with that" AFAIK...
