Small food cart in French Market - Edit
This place could be easy to pass by, as it's just a small food cart in the French Market. Basically, the name says it all - they serve potatoes. And chili. But that's it. All vegan though. Potato "fries" are actually baked, so it's nice to get something healthier. There are a number of different ketchup and dipping options.
The chili was a veggie chili and a little sweet - not spicy at all.
The potatoes are not sitting out ready - they seemed to be baked per order so if you're in a hurry this isn't the best place because you will wait a while.
A good healthy option.

not what we expected - Edit
We searched for ages to find this place as its not particularly easy to find as they don't answer the phone, and its just a small food cart now. The menu was nothing like as advertised online, and was literally just baked potato wedges with a choice of about 6/7 shop bought sauces from a bottle. There was only one choice of potato, one size cone of chips available ($7) and no extra toppings. There was a soup available also. We bought 2 cones of chips with 2 dips and 2 brownies and it came to $22. The chips were fine, but unseasoned and the special salt shakers they have were either empty of the salt had formed one solid lump and you couldn't get it out the shaker. They were just baked slices of unseasoned potatoes in a cone for $7.
It would be a nice idea if it was anything close to what we thought it would be, but it's not, it's just overpriced baked wedges. Kind of a shame as I'm sure it used to be great and is obviously going through hard times, but it really should have been a fraction of the price or way more selection to charge what they do.

Great idea but needs tweaking - Edit
I was very excited to try this place. However, it was a difficult task. First, they never answer their phone even during the business hours posted on Google. Second, they don't appear to stick to any set of hours. For instance, I arrived at the opening time posted on Google but the person arrived over an hour later (and as I stood there for many minutes waiting for service, she played on her cell phone). Third, they are either popular or bad at stocking supplies. Even arriving upon opening they were already out of all potatoes except sweet potatoes. When I managed to order, I got the sweet potato fries with chili and cheese and a side of chipotle ranch. The chili was really liquidy so the fries ended up soggy, but everything was delicious. I really loved the chipotle ranch and sweet potato combination, and the vegan chili was great on its own. They had many desserts which looked delicious too, though I didn't try any. With a little tweaking, this place could be amazing!
Pros: 100% vegan, Convenient French Market location, Delicious customizeable options
Cons: Poorly kept hours, Poorly stocked, Poorly staffed

Terrific potatoe wedges and amazing sauces! - Edit
Delicious oven baked potato wedges with a variety of toppings, all which are vegan! For those of us living a cruelty free life style, this is pretty incredible, especially with options like chipotle mayo and blue cheese! The wedges came in an easy to carry cone, and for me at least, took a few hours to eat since it was such a large portion. I thought the price and amount of food was perfect! They also sell desserts by Girls Gone Vegan. Service was great, will definitely be stopping by again on my next trip to NOLA.

I thought that the potatoes would be unique. Just regular sweet potatoes already cut.

Great food & service - great fries & chili - Edit
Great fast service. The fries were great. I loved the chili as well. We were allowed to try various sauces before deciding which we wanted to order. They have a variety of refrigerated drinks. The ice cream is also good. The bus stops right in front of the restaurant. This is a great place for an informal lunch.
Pros: Great variety of sauces & fries, You can try sauces before ordering, Great chili
Cons: Out of the central area

Yummy coffee, delicious teas. Free water because they're sweethearts. Super friendly staff. Awesome décor. Plus there are rumors of new and exciting things to come from this place!
Pros: ALL VEGAN!

A Freaking Mazing :-) - Edit
It was a struggle finding a healthy place to eat in such an unhealthy area where everything is either fried or has pork, beef, or just meat in general in it. When the results came up that 3 potato 4 was not even a mile from my job, eye jumped on my bike and went to see what it was like from the friendly guy on the phone to the whole atmosphere walking in.
The food was absolutely amazing and didn't feel that fullness that normal food would give, the soup and potatoes are to die for as well as the juices.
Every chance eye get eye will be stuffing my face here.
Thanks again for the fast food joint for the Earth Friendly Beings.
Pros: great flavor , friendly place and people, amazing service

Great vegan food and atmosphere! - Edit
So happy to find this cute place with vegan food! The potatoes were so delicious and fresh with the bbq sauce and a chocolate dipped banana. Fair trade, organic chocolate too! Everything about this place is super neat! They compost and recycle, such a low footprint. Water comes in Mardi gras cups that they wash and reuse. The owners are very friendly and great to talk to, nice to learn some new stuff. They focus on education and have some PETA materials which is cool to see. Definitely make this a stop, you'll feel great about it and make some new friends too! Loved it y'all!

Check THIS place out and give your taste buds a... - Edit
TREAT!!!! Stopped in tonight with a friend to check out the place. You walk in and the owner makes you feel right at home. The menu is easy to navigate. Pick out a variety of organic potato, the size of your baked serving (go ahead and get the share size), and then go thru the choices of organic sauces that he makes himself. Don't worry, he will give you sample of what you might feel like having. Feel free to pick out two sauces, because you DID get the "share" size. The sauces are the jewels in the crown. I chose the spicy Thai and the chipotle mayo. GO AHEAD AND GET A BOWL OF THE 3 BEAN CHILI! Perfect with any choice of potato. Go ahead and try the organic salts. Alder wood smoked salt, need I say more. I guess not.
Pros: Authentic Organic Vegan, The owner is a nice guy., Green conscious establishment.

Let me tell you folks, this place ROCKS!!! The taters are healthy (not fried!!) and amazing!! The sauces and salts are heavenly and finger lickin' good. The food, decor, music, and staff will super charge you with happy vibes and you'll walk away with a smile and full tummy. Wish I lived closer b/c I can't find taters that delicious in my area or any of their healthy drinks. Cudos to Zack & Jehan :))
Pros: Great music, Eco-Friendly, Awesome food and service
Cons: Couldn't stuff taters in my mouth fast enough, Wish it were closer to home, Left me jonezing for more!!!

The best fast food ever! - Edit
These baked fries are superb! Fries were already my weakness, and to be able to get them baked, non-gmo, with such an amazing array of sauces and salts, is pure heaven for me. When you add in the soups and chocolate covered bananas, what more does one need for a good, fast, healthy meal? Well, how about a complete dedication to being a green business with a sharp eye to carbon footprint reduction, for starters?
Beautiful decor, free WiFi, great music, good videos and, I forgot to mention, excellent coffee; an all around cool place to eat and socialize. This will become one of your favorite places to visit, as the owner has many future plans for your total enjoyment.
You won't be disappointed, I promise, so tell the owner I sent you, and have a great time and enjoy some great food too.
