   We met friends from out of town at True Food, as they were staying at a nearby hotel. We thought we were booking a brunch reservation. Somehow, the reality that brunch is only served on weekends wasn't clear when I made the reservation, so I was a bit disappointed that brunch foods weren't available on a Friday. The food we ordered was tasty, however, & the service was friendly & efficient. The squash pizza was especially good & perfect for splitting. One of the diners was not enthusiastic about his burger (He said it was rather dry...), but we all appreciated being able to sit, eat slowly, & chat eagerly without being rushed by the server.

   Ok, but the idea is outdated. No quiet areas at all. Ten years ago it was cool, now it’s just crowded and noisy.

   The first visit, and we will likely return again. Our server was great, knowledgeable and accommodating to our needs/requests as we celebrated with a family accomplishment which included dining with 3 kids. The pizzas were excellent! The food was hot and fresh. The Chicken Sandwich was savory! Our vegan honoree had several options and chose the lasagna with she enjoyed!

   The staff were incredibly helpful. The server who answered our questions was very positive and helpful. The host was extremely helpful by volunteering to help with a friend who had some physical issues. The food was definitely interesting and delicious. I definitely want to come back. The only issue was that we were seated next to a table that was very loud.

   Food at True Food kitchen is always good. We had an outstanding squash soup and seasonal salad. The salad had dates in it, but my portion (my friend had the same thing) had very few dates and very small pieces. Hers had more and larger pieces. Otherwise...very good!

    True Food Kitchen has an inventive and tasty menu, and I always enjoy what I order. My one complaint with the restaurant is the noise level. It is very high, and therefore it is very hard to have a conversation with fellow diners.
