True Food Kitchen Misses the Mark in Reston
We went with the simple aim of trying something new and arrived at True Food Kitchen with tempered expectations: a casual, health-minded franchise promising balance, freshness, and ease. The experience, however, felt oddly disconnected from that promise.
The seasonal market salad set the tone—wilted greens, muted flavors, and little sense of intention. The butternut squash came in a surprisingly tiny portion and leaned watery, though not unpleasant. French fries ordered for two arrived cold and meager, accompanied by condiments that didn’t resemble mayo or ranch in either taste or texture. The tuna poke disappointed most: a small bowl with flat seasoning and rice so undercooked it crunched. Entrées held the line without distinction—the chicken parmesan and Thai panang curry bowl were serviceable, nothing more.
Service was friendly but hesitant, with a forgotten item and uneven pacing. The dining room, especially for dinner, felt stale and distant rather than lively or welcoming. At nearly $160 for three people, the value equation collapsed. Health-forward food need not sacrifice warmth or execution—but here it did. Two out of five stars.

As a big fan of both pizza and sweet treats, I was excited to find a place that offers healthier choices without sacrificing flavor. The fact that they focus on being seed oil free is what initially caught my attention, and I am so glad it did. Everything tasted fresh and satisfying, proving that better ingredients truly make a difference. The interior also has a warm and inviting feel that makes you want to stay and enjoy your time. A fantastic experience from start to finish.

I like this place, which is why I’m only taking off one star. They use decent ingredients and most of the time — probably about 70% of the time — they get things right.
I remember when I first bought the Bison Egg pizza here and it was fantastic. But recently my DoorDash orders haven’t been like it used to be, including a burger order and this pizza.
I ordered the Sausage & Smoked Gouda Pizza because the photo looked amazing, but what I received looked nothing like the picture and was surprisingly bland. We each tried a piece hoping it would get better, but it didn’t and the rest ended up getting thrown away.
I still think the place has potential, but the consistency and presentation need some work, especially when the photos set certain expectations.

True Food Kitchen is one of the best and healthiest restaurants! The plant-based burger and wild-caught shrimp are absolutely delicious and full of flavor. The flourless chocolate dessert was shockingly good! 100% recommended!

I had a good experience at True Food. The service was friendly and the atmosphere was inviting. I ordered the tenderloin steak for $37 — the portion was on the smaller side and the cut thinner than what you’d get at a steakhouse, though the meat was tender. The nice part is that it’s grass-fed, which adds to the value.

I highly, highly recommend going here!! I didn’t expect to find such a tasty and healthy conscious restaurant so close to a hotel!! True Food Kitchen has such a strong healthy food philosophy (not only gluten free, but also anti-inflammatory) that I found truly inspiring! I had the beet plant based burger and air fried fries. The plant based burger was so well made and flavorful, I forgot I was eating a plant based burger. Not only was the food amazing, the staff was also very kind and attentive. My waiter, Brandon was awesome! If you’re looking for coffee, I recommend their iced shakerato! It was the perfect mix of smooth and flavorful. I can’t wait to be back to try more off of their menu!

The grass fed burger and veggie burger were very good, as was the grilled salmon. The portions were a bit on the small side, but that’s true every where you go these days.

This is literally my new favorite place!
I didn’t know what to expect, so let me inform you of how amazing this place is!
Right off the cuff, I was greeted by Chris, my waiter that flawlessly helped me choose my drinks and food for brunch. The menu is vast, and having that helpful information about each dish from him was crucial in getting the food I was in the mood for.
I got a cappuccino that was infused with lavender, which I wasn’t sure about, but let me say I enjoyed it enough to get a second one.
My brunch was the farmer scramble that I loved, along with pancakes. I don’t know, which was more amazing because I never had pancakes that tasted like these.. it was a mix of brown sugar and cinnamon with maybe oats or granola? A must try!
I then finished and ordered a smoked old fashion that is also like nothing I’ve had, and I’ve had my fair share of old fashions. Not only did it taste great, but the display and presentation of it were top-notch quality!
Well done, True Food Kitchen! Chris is a keeper! And who every the cook is, is too! Out of all the restaurants here in Reston, this is a must try hidden jem! Enjoy inside or outside seating, it also had a lot of bar space and a closed off meeting or party area for a privet event if needed! Cheers!
