“The looks of the food does no justice. You have to actually try their food. Living in a world with so much inflation and bad unhealthy food, I left here feeling like I received my monies worth. I ate half my plate and I had energy to do other activities afterwards. I walked the French Quarter and didn’t feel tired. I finished the rest of my plate for dinner and instead of feeling tired and sleepy, I decided to come here and write this post. Worth every second of my time. Eating vegetables are an exciting experience, especially when you can eat them and feel good.“
“This is one of the best lunch cafes I have ever been to! I am a vegetarian and sandwich options are always so limited anywhere else. So many options I had a hard time deciding. Even if you’re not vegetarian you should check this place out!!“
“What’s left of my not crab cake and RA pasta…the BEST vegan and GF food I’ve ever had!!!! I thought for sure I would be sick…no way my allergy food could be this tasty and comparable to “real food” nope!!!! Not sick at all! I felt like I was eating “bad” food. Thank y’all so much because I can’t eat anything just anywhere! Will be back!!!!!“

“I’ve been coming to Original Thought for almost a year now and every visit is a 10/10. ?? The owner is always so so kind & thoughtful with our food & requests & it’s just such a nice environment to go for good food & a friendly experience ??“
“Had the Vegan Hot Sausage PoBoy and fries, chocolate chip cookies. The PoBoy was one of the best sandwich I've had. Portions are huge. On a different note: we ordered food to eat there and everything was in a plastic bag, and catchup was in little plastic containers. The single use plastic drives me nuts. Great to support all vegan restaurants.“
“Baby, I don’t know if they put their whole entire BODY into that Vegan Hot Sausage Poboy. But that was BEST Poboy sandwich I EVER had and plus it’s VEGAN ?. And the staff was extremely kind to me and Mamma.I WILL BE COMING BACK !!!!! Keep up the good work, my fellow, Gods and Goddesses ✨☀️.“
“The food is soooooo good. The best brunch menu in Nola. Tried most things and it always slaps. Service is great.-1 for no reservations and long waits. I have no idea why they don’t give both the overworked hosts and customers a break by having a more streamlined res/waitlist system. Attempting Bearcat on the weekend is a competitive sport.Is it a reverse psychology thing? Like knowing you probably won’t get in so you want it even more? Having waited in the sun for an hour so the mimosas are extra refreshing? Lmk!“
“This is a great little place. The staff is curious and the food is excellent. I really like what flavors they have been able to make for their vegan menu. That being said this place had the best cheese steak I got while in New Orleans, hands down! The prices are reasonable especially for the taste and experience you get. The resrurant had good seating options and a place to eat outside. Little off the beaten path but 1000% worth it!“

“I'd been wanting to give them a try but find it hard to monitor where the truck will be even after following them on social media. Well a few months back I finally got my chance to check them out and was so glad I did. The burgers are excellent! The employees super friendly. Can't wait to try them again and sample some of the other dishes they offer.“
“Food cart on a small farmers market style plaza . They make both gluten free and regular crepes . They are large and filling , they do taste as someone mentioned in another review like pancake mix . Not bad but didn’t expect that with ham and cheese . I ordered the bignete one and it’s just crepe with powder sugar . It was just ok.“
“I remember before Katrina when this was the cake place. Now it’s this really cute cafe with colorful decorations and really friendly staff. The brunch we had was delicious: artichoke cakes and spinach and fried oysters - it was soooo good! I miss seeing the cat in the bookstore though - please bring it back!“
