Can never go wrong with True Food Kitchen! One of my favorite restaurants.. that just happens to be a chain 🙂
Most people don’t know the founder is a doctor.. and he strives to offer an anti-inflammatory menu with seasonal, fresh ingredients
This location is massive. Tons of open, airy space with high ceilings.. and LOTS of seating
Quality is consistent with the brand. Feel-good eats that taste great
Highlight will always be the seasonal dessert: sweet potato pie! Graham cracker crust.. no refined sugar.. guilt free perfection

Grilled sustainable salmon is nicely grilled on the outside with a savory flavor, while the inside remains moist.
There was no fishy taste, making it easy to enjoy.
The grain rice served with the salmon has a good texture and pairs well with it.
The snap peas were not overcooked, so they stayed crisp. Personally, I prefer them more cooked, so that part was slightly disappointing.
Light, but suitable for a proper meal.

This place was really quite impressive: came with a friend because there was a really amazing promo that we found, but left wondering when I would like to come back. The staff was professional and courteous, and it was significantly spacious. I honestly would recommend coming back here, even without the promo code.

For a reliably healthy and satisfying lunch, this spot is a fantastic choice. The portion sizes are decent without being overwhelming, and the quality of the food makes it a go-to for a midday meal. The kale salad was a definite done right… prepped so that there was no trace of bitterness, just fresh, crisp greens. The turkey burger was equally impressive; it tasted wonderfully homemade, with great flavor and none of the overly salty taste you often find elsewhere. The fresh brewed teas are a nice touch, though it was a shame the green tea wasn’t available so early in the day. Service had a bit of a slow start, taking a moment to get to the table after we were seated (11:00 a.m.) However, these are minor points for an otherwise excellent and healthy lunch experience. An easy go to if in the area.

I had a very disappointing experience at True Food Kitchen on 10 November 2025. My friend and I waited about 45 minutes for a table — which was understandable since we didn’t have a reservation. But after being seated, we waited another 30–45 minutes for our food.
When our meals finally arrived, we found a live bug moving in our salad after just one bite.
The manager blamed it on “prewashed packages” and said the bug “wasn’t local,” rather than taking real responsibility. She offered to have the chef prepare something else, but it was already late, and after seeing a bug in our food, neither of us felt comfortable eating anything.
She then said she wouldn’t charge us for our meals — but immediately followed it by asking whether we had ordered anything else, like appetizers. That felt extremely strange and out of place given the situation.
She offered a gift card, which arrived today. It was only $50 and didn’t include a single apology or note. For a restaurant of this size and reputation, that’s unacceptable.
Between the long wait, poor handling of the situation, and lack of accountability, this was honestly one of the most disappointing dining experiences I’ve had.

Loved it! Had one of the pizzas and the grilled cauliflower and this fruity drink called the hangover. Little bit pricey but worth it in my opinion. A date night would easily be $100+ but I would consider it. The service was very good. The outside seating area where I sat wasn’t busy at all as neither was the inside dining area. I’ll definitely come back again!

I recently placed an order through Uber Eats from this establishment, which I visit regularly. While the app seemed to require me to select a salad, it still displayed my usual order with fries. When my order arrived, I received the All-American Burger with a side salad instead of my usual fries.
I called the restaurant to address the issue. The first representative I spoke with was not very attentive, so I asked to speak with the manager. Unfortunately, the manager focused more on questioning how I placed the order rather than resolving the problem. He repeatedly mentioned having control over refunds, blamed Uber, and cited a “system glitch” to justify the error, rather than offering a solution. Even when dining in, service can be slow and inattentive, even on less busy days. This establishment should improve both their service and responsiveness to customers.

Been a big fan of True Food Kitchen for a long time now! First time trying this location and the food was delicious as always. I could live off the edamame dumplings, so yummy!
Shout out to the manager Antoinette who was super kind and personable. She went above and beyond to make sure we had a great dining experience.

Went to this place because their big on accommodating guest with allergens. My wife and I went to have lunch and asked the server what options are soy and dairy free. Our new born has Cow’s milk protein allergy and if my wife consumes soy and dairy, our baby can’t have breast milk for two weeks until it’s out of her system. The server confirmed with the “head chef” and management what options my wife was looking at were soy and dairy free. After confirming, they brought out her sandwich which was on bread. We asked again is this bread soy and dairy free, which one of the managers then said no it has buttermilk in it. My wife then said that’s fine and took the bread off. After-halfway through we asked again is the buffalo sauce soy and dairy free. The manager then comes back and apologizes because it has soy in it.
They comped our meal but the important thing is that a restaurant that prides itself with all different diets and accommodating allergens to the fullest degree, that they straight up don’t know what they’re talking about. I’d be extremely cautious if you have an allergy that could have a serious health risk to you when dining here due to the lack of knowledge by the staff.
They took my information and said the GM would call me which they still have not

We were in San Diego and decided to eat here around 11:30am on Friday January 2nd. The server was extremely nice and attentive (wish I got her name- shoulder length dark hair). We ordered the ancient grain bowl and vegan pizza since we wanted something light after New Year’s Eve. The food was so good that I downloaded the menu and found recipes for the pistachio pesto sauce bought all of the ingredients for the ancient grain bowl.
It turns out that we didn’t have to! There is a True Food Kitchen in Oakbrook IL so we will be going back. The grapefruit martinis were amazing too! We loved it!
