    Nothing short of EXCELLENT! My favorite is the French Onion Soup, especially on a cold winter evening. Our server, Tommy, was very attentive, yet not overbearing. He kept tabs on us without continually bothering us, just as a good server should. I really like this place and it obvious that I'm not the only one. That's obvious by how hard it is to get a reservation and the fact that the place was packed on a Monday evening after the long Thanksgiving weekend.

    First of all, Alex, our waiter, was top level! We had two older family members and he was very patient and attentive. All, and I mean ALL details were caught and delivered. This was our first time to True Food and the food was excellent. Proportions were good, not overdone or too small, and the freshness of the ingredients and unique recipes were great. Personal note—don’t put mushrooms in the Brussels Sprouts! Ambience was good too. For a large open restaurant and on a busy night, the noise level was still good. We could enjoy our table company without having to shout. Great family dinner out (and Alex really was amazing).
