Le Fond

I’m going to miss this place so, so much. It’s one of the few true 10/10 places around, I had a duck that made me believe in god. The service is also top notch, all waiters are very knowledgeable of the ever changing menu. RIP Le Fond - You’ll be missed by all of Greenpoint.

Very Fond of this place

Le Fond feels too good to be true. It’s a cozy little spot with a simple wine and food menu. It’s one of those places where you cannot make a bad choice. And on top of all that, it’s very reasonably priced. It feels local, low-key and home made, but with Michelin level taste and presentation. Each dish we had last night brought us somewhere. We started with a gazpacho presented in a champagne glass. It was very authentic, transporting us immediately to a trip we made to Madrid. We then shared three small plates, all delicious, the stand out being a chive and cherry tomato tagliatelle. Again giving an authentic flavor, this time on par with the best pastas we’ve had in Italy. Then, we shared a roasted duck entree that sat over crispy potatoes. The duck fat was perfectly crispy and the middle tender. Finally, we shared a strawberry tartlet with fresh strawberries and blueberries. It was a perfect meal as usual. Part of me doesn’t want to write this to gate keep this cozy place but I couldn’t help myself!

Great atmosphere, great food and great service. Love the "half wine bottle" option. Had a surprised birthday party there for my husband seven years ago. Hope for an expansion of the menu.

Came here with friends and enjoyed the delicious, beautifully executed, and very reasonably priced prix fixe. My fluke fish was cooked to flaky perfection. The homemade berry kombucha was a refreshing summer delight. Service was, let’s say, “French-paced”allowing lots of time for conversation. My only complaint was that the A/C was rather weak, we left the restaurant sweating! Either way, looking forward to returning to explore their next new seasonal menu :)
