We had ordered take out. The pork carnita wrap was so scrumptious! It melted in your mouth. The red beans and rice with sausage was pretty tasty. I tried the Mac and cheese and sweet potato wedges, so good!!

I ordered the meatloaf sandwich (excellent, with a spicy kick) and the Cuban sandwich (I loved it) with the praline bread pudding (totally worth $5 deliciousness). The sides were great too. We are really excited to live near this place. Glad we tried it.

Definitely the best food I've found in this area. I've enjoyed every meal I've gotten here! My biggest complaint is that they aren't open on weekends (when I am most likely to eat out) so I don't go often enough. Everyone has always been super friendly and I need to do a better job of finding excuses to eat out/pick up food during the week to support them!

Came to NOLA for a long weekend, and happened to find this place on Friday morning. They are delightful! Eric (an owner) made it a point to introduce himself. The food was great, great service, and quite honestly, the only place we made it a point to come back to before heading home. 12/10 will come back to The Fí¼d Bar the next time we are here!

Friendly and helpful staff, very good menu with plenty of specials and unique sides. Clean and simple layout with eclectic atmosphere. Had the beef brisket press which was very tasty, will have to come back and try some of the other options. If you are in the Vista Lake, City Park area, definitely a place to tryout. Very good value for amount of food you get.

Woah! Talk about amazing! I've been wanting to try this place for months now. I finally went in today and I was greeted by the sweetest woman. In the background there is this angelic pianist singing his heart out to some Neo soul as I'm trying to pick from the many delicious choices. I choose the M&3. Brisket, steamed broccoli, creamed spinach and kale, and black beans (not pictured). That was the juiciest, most flavorful, and healthy brisket I've ever had, and I make a pretty good brisket myself! Everything about this place was 5 stars! I will be returning again when I havent meal prepped! Edit: I returned for a second time and ordered the brisket again, it was ALL FAT; talk about gross, the sides were good, creamed spinach, roasted sweet potatoes, and corn maque choux.

Had the Portobello , spinach wrap with goat cheese. It was very good. Loved the way the tortillas was warm and crispy it's a Nice lunch for the summer. Also, had the creamed spinach and kale which was delicious. The staff is friendly and eager to answer questions.

I had the Breakfast Press Sandwich, and it was LITERALLY the best breakfast sandwich I have ever tasted. It was perfect.

This is my second trip here and the "fud" is as good as I remember when they first opened. The creamed spinach and kale is ridiculously good...squeeze on some lemon (from the beverage area) and it's perfect. If you order the roasted fennel and tomato soup, order the extra bread ($1): garlicky deliciousness. The inside is a little sterile and cold feeling. They would benefit from some tablecloths or some softness. They have a liquor license, so get your beer, wine, or Tito's on. Too bad there's not an actual bar or counter to sit at. Overall, 4.5 stars. Amazing, well seasoned and flavorful options, with reasonably priced creative menu and weekly specials. Atmosphere is lacking, but that can be remedied. Come for the food!

I just went there for the second time. This place is my new favorite. So far I've had the Cuban and the shrimp remoulade on french. Both were crazy good! Can't wait to go back and try something else
The food here doesn't have too much flavor, season, good taste. Yes it's a great idea and great for quick lunch but it's missing that kick that will make me keep coming back, I would give them one more chance. Their variety is pretty neat and probably the sandwiches are great but the plates as much good looking that they are they don't taste or more like are lacking of flavor and seasoning. Try it everyone is different. Sandwiches probably still pretty good.

Very good food. We did carry out and everything was still very fresh and flavorful by the time we got home. The pork carnitas and lemon herb chicken were delicious!

So Many Great Things About This Place! Gentilly has been needing a spot like this for so long. The owners have gone above and beyond to offer everything you could want. Endless options of great food from scratch. Great prices. Full bar, and happy hour. Trivia nights, live music, patio dining. Dog friendly. Easy parking. If you pull in here and go to the chain pizza place next door? SHAME ON YOU! Support locally founded and operated business. These guys are great and will put smile on your face every time. Breakfast served Monday through Friday. I love the 4 Sides for $10 - a nice portion of everything and I'm a happy girl!

The veggies were delicious! The seasoning perfect, fresh and lite, not heavy on the salt or oils

Excellent! I have been looking forward to giving Fud a try for a while, and today things worked out and I had lunch here with my mom. It's located on Robert E. Lee and there is a parking lot around back with a few available spaces. We were greeted when we walked in and I was so happy to find the place clean and cheery. It's counter service and the menu is on a board on the wall behind the counter. There are lots of great choices - sandwiches, salads, wraps, lunch plates, family style meals to go and soups. My mom and I each went with lunch plates. You choose a meat and 3 sides. I went with the brisket, maque choux, creamed spinach and kale, and sweet potatoes. A few minutes after we placed our order at the counter our food was delivered to our table. The portions were very generous and everything was super flavorful and delicious. The brisket was fork tender! I can't neglect to mention the friendly, attentive service we received. I'll definitely stop in again.
