   My husband and I really like how accommodating True Food Kitchen is with our dietary preferences. Our meal was tasty; and still on target for our specific weightloss program too!

   My favorite restaurant but this was the worse experience. Waited 15 minutes to get seated, several menu items were not available, waited over an hour to get our food, the food serving was half the usual portion, and the chicken was overcooked. The waitress was very apologetic and informed us the manager offered a free dessert but we had lost our appetite by then

   The food is pretty good when they execute but often they fail to execute and have a lot of inconsistencies. Like I'm sure the food tastes pretty good in the test kitchen but not in real life

   When we ate on a Thursday evening, service was a little difficult. I had to ask the hostess to help with getting us a server to order

   You have got to try the gluten free Pepperoni Pizza and vegan cheese; and it was crispy and delicious! My husband really enjoyed the grass fed burger. It was perfectly cooked and has a distinctively robust natural beef flavor. The wait staff does an excellent job too!

   Took a 10 minutes before someone came to our table. But the waitress was very nice and helpful when she finally was able to see us. Perhaps short staffed? The bathrooms were horrendous. The worst I’ve seen for a public restaurant in Pasadena. Not kept up. The food was stellar it’s sad that it’s healthy food with bad restrooms. However, the staff was very helpful when seating us. Great host. Nice service. Perfect plated food and drinks. For the money spent, better off elsewhere for a better experience.

    The Spaghetti Squash Casserole is one my favorites. I had it this time with their pesto sauce as a substitute for their delicious tomato sauce for a fun change. It was so amazing that I ordered another one to take home; and my spouse ordered one to go too.The staff here are great and very accommodating as well. We love coming to True Food Kitchen frequently for our date night!!
