Best healthy food options. Mike is so nice. My go to place. Clean options and cooked fresh. Owner says chicken comes in every 2 days and it definitely tastes like it.

Füdgarten is an absolute standout in every way! The service here is consistently warm and amazing, with a team that goes above and beyond to ensure both the food and the customer experience are of the highest standards. I recently made a 2-hour drive just to try their Thursday special, the Aztec Chicken, and let me tell you, it was worth every mile! The chicken was expertly seasoned and cooked to perfection--tender and flavorful. The bed of quinoa it rested on was like a soft cloud, adding a wonderful texture to the dish. Every component of the Aztec Chicken was meticulously crafted, resulting in a dish that's not just delicious but a perfect harmony of ingredients. As a bonus, they surprised me with a complimentary protein cookie, which turned out to be the best I've ever had! I highly recommend Füdgarten to everyone in the area. Whether it's for their exceptional Thursday specials or their overall commitment to culinary excellence, you won't regret giving them a try.

I was looking for a fresh, healthy option in Fort Lee, and tried Fudgarten. Ordered the culture clash shake, which had all the ingredients under the sun (cacao nibs, spinach, strawberry, mango, banana, cinnamon). The shake was deceptively filling but it is on the pricey side ($9.50) for something I can basically make myself. Not a protein powder fan but the one they use had a subtle taste and wasn't grainy at all. My husband got the Trueno bowl, which looked good, and is a fully-rounded meal with all the macros. If I lived in Fort Lee and was feeling lazy about whipping up a healthy, tasty meal for myself, I'd come here. The menu had a lot of great options - bowls, salads, burgers, wraps, and shakes. Parking: Lot out in front and if there are no more spaces, lots of metered street options available.

Absolutely delighted with my visit to Fudgarten! From the moment I stepped in, I was greeted with a warm and welcoming atmosphere that made me feel right at home. The variety of fudgarten options was truly impressive, each more tempting than the last. I indulged in a few different flavors, and I must say, they were all divine – rich, creamy, and melt-in-your-mouth delicious. The staff were incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, making great recommendations and sharing the story behind their craft with passion. It’s clear that Fudgarten takes pride in using high-quality ingredients, and it shows in the taste. This place is a must-visit for any sweets lover. I’ll definitely be returning soon to try more flavors. A perfect 5-star experience!

Füdgarten is a real boon to the area. Fresh, healthy, delicious food at reasonable prices and, for us, delivered quickly and courteously by a great group of people who really care about the quality of their food and their customers. Excellent soups and sandwiches you can customize to your taste! Delicious fruit and protein shakes. I hope for their sake everyone discovers them!?

It's a 3.5 for me. I order from time to time. But pricey, the serving size come into effect. I get being organic and fresh comes into play here but they can be super stingy on ingredients. The panini which I like, sometimes comes smaller or even half for some reason. And very stingy on the items basics sometimes it's just bread The bowls - small. Got the el toro once and it was tasteless. Meh. The wraps are okay not the best. The shakes are good. Judge for yourself here but I only order once in awhile. Rule of thumb don't do sides the sweet potatoes fries aren't worth it and they only give you 3 or 4 of them

This is the only place in the area that serves healthy tasting food , much better than the other place that sells healthy food. We need more places like this. The food is here is very good and you leave feeling good not heavy.

I visited this place hoping for a good lunch, but unfortunately, it wasn't a great experience. The person at the counter was nice, but she took a long 10 mins to take my order because she was too busy making smoothies. Then when i ordered a burger priced at $12.50 according to the menu board, i was surprised to be charged $15. She said it's because of 3% surcharge when paying with credit card! This extra charge wasn't mentioned upfront.Waiting for the burger took another 15 mins and when it finally came out, it was disappointing. It lacked sauce and the portion of sweet potato fries looked like leftovers.Overall the service was slow, the price wasnt clear, and the food was disappointing!

Food is overall good but the service is very poor for a business with actually healthy and delicious meals. The store originally had two people in ( me and another customer). Unfortunately the other customer meal was taking too long and left as I still waited to place my order. Two more customers entered as I still waiting and the man behind the counter proceeded to take their order prior to mine as I still waited nor acknowledged my presence.This place of business definitely need to work on their customer service.Update 2/5/24 ( In response to the owner’s comment)As a business it is look down upon to call a customer a liar or state that the customer is lying. But as I said in my review before you never took my order because I know I didn’t walk into the store at 9:32 am. When I know I finished my workout at 9:28 am on my Apple Watch and for me to get dressed, warm up my car, and get to your location in 5 mins and place an order was not possible.When I walked into the store and waited for my order to be place while someone else was waiting before me. You simply said “ I feel bad for some people” and proceeded to cook. I took a protein shake from the fridge waiting to be purchased along with my order ( that was never taken or put into the system). Plus the order I was going to get was an omelette not something with fish.Also please get the right situation correct before you attack a customer. The lady that left simply said out loud she wanted to get to her workout class and would be back in 40 minutes and you said that it will be done in 5 minutes if she would just wait.Thank you and have a blessed day!

I was astonished to see that this $17.00 salad only contained a few little bits of the extra components and very little salad. I would never place another order with them. I also contacted the restaurant to ask for the manager, but the staff member answered and he was busy. My review history is visible to you; I rarely leave a negative review, but this is really terrible.
Make it a great day and do yourself a favor. Order the lamb kebab on Wednesdays and the Aztec chicken on Thursdays.

Amazing healthy alternative to quick meals in the area. Love the friendly people and menu options. Can't go wrong with this place I've tried everything.

Took my daughter for the first time and she was not impressed by the western omelette because they did not chop any of the ingredients and mixed it together with the eggs it was just all put together as a whole but my El Toro with chicken was amazing

I met the owner online playing video games. We got to chatting about his store and I told him that I had never had a protein cookie that actually tasted good. He wanted to prove me wrong and sent me some of the apricot protein cookies the store made over the summer.These cookies were fantastic. If I lived closer, I would be at this store multiple times a week getting some amazing food that lines up with my fitness goals. I look forward to trying the cranberry and chocolate chip cookies. If you are in the area, I highly recommend stopping by!
