You can tell this place is run by a young chef, it comes through every aspect of it!
Delicate, well crafted modern French food without the stiffness that sometimes comes with it. I stumbled upon this place by chance and I have been coming back consistently, always spot on.
The service matches the quality of the food with is strange in this hipster filled neighborhood.
You won't be disappointed.

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!
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.
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 :)
I've had the pleasure of dining here three times now, and each time, I leave very pleased and impressed. Jake and his team prepare an amazing variety of dishes - always fresh and always flavorful. The service is top tier without being overwhelming or overdone. Thank you Le Fond for your delicious food, great atmosphere, consistent service, and neighborhood charm. Cannot wait to see you again soon.
Dinner here was absolutely amazing! Love the creativity of the daily menus. The cabbage appetizer and steak frites were unreal. As was the apple almond cake dessert. Their homemade bread & butter was wonderful.
Fantastic experience at Le Fond—a refined yet cozy ambiance at this neighborhood gem with delicious food! Loved being able to sample multiple first plates, and amazed that we didn’t feel weighed down by everything we ate (only pictured the tomatoes and gnocchi here). Fries were indulgent and definitely will be coming back!
In my opinion, this is one of the best values for a tasting/pre fixe menu in the five boroughs. For around $50 you get four courses, two of which are main sized portions. Quantity is one thing but the quality is most important. I have NEVER had an experience here that wasn’t stellar. The flavors are always on point and the menu is always changing.
Don’t sleep on the fresh made bread!
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.
Review is for dinner for two at 6:30pm. Attentive and friendly staff, server recommendations where appropriate. Nice vibe, restaurant felt very clean. The food itself was good and well prepared, however the gnocchi parisienne and octopus terrine left something to be desired. Walnut bolognese and Lamb osso buco were delicious. Will be back for brunch. Thank you Le Fond.
Nice atmosphere, so delicious foods, friendly staff, what else? I had burger and that was so good and hit the spot. I'd really recommend it.
