This place is great for a quick lunch. No tables - take out service only. Even though I was only in for 3 minutes to pickup my lunch, I was met with a friendly smile and kindness. The spicy chicken salad is actually pretty spicy! I can handle spice, but if you like it mild, I would go for the wrap to help temper the heat. The salad also looked small at first, but it was just tightly packed. Once I opened the container, there was a perfect portion of lettuce, pico, chicken, and dressing. read more

This food is SO GOOD. Like as good as your parents home cooked meals that you can't find anywhere else. Quality and taste was so clean and flavorful, didn't leave a heavy feeling. Got the spiced chicken and rice dinner and BBQ chicken wrap A couple small seats only if you want to eat inside, but owners are true hosts! 10/10 will be back read more

Tru Foods Kitchen - Spiced Chicken and Rice - Salad Near Me - Watertown, Massachusetts

Glad I found this spot on Yelp! It is a small shop, there is some counter space with stools for waiting only - not to eat in. I ordered ahead online and food was ready at the estimated time. The owner was very friendly. I tried the halal chicken and rice plate and it did not disappoint! Well seasoned, tender pieces of dark meat chicken with a bit of a kick. the seasoned basmati rice was cooked perfectly. I do wish there was a larger portion of the chicken but at the price point of 10.99 I cannot complain. Perhaps a suggestion to raise the price a bit and give a larger portion of chicken. Side salad balanced the dish well. A great spot for lunch if you are in the area! read more

Lovely little burrito for 10 bucks, a little bit Indian, but a lot of fresh veggies too. The place is a hole on the wall, and desperately needs an exhaust fan. Wonder if they have more vegan options than just the cauliflower. read more

My first visit at 9am this morning was a great way to start the day. Walking in you are greeted by marvelous, aromatic, and remarkable, redolence of delicious foods to eat, which danced around the whole kitchen and establishment. The coffee was simple yet pleasingly tasty and the caprese panini sandwich perfectly satisfied my hunger which was brought on by my insufficient consumption of dietary energy. It is cute, but smaller than the Taj Mahal. Bring your shoe horn if your a party of 12. But the owner is welcoming and it is C-O-Z-Y : ). No seating presently. read more

EAT HERE. I was in the mood for a healthy dinner and I stumbled upon Tru Foods and placed an online order for their Halal Spiced Chicken & Rice. The food was amazing and the cost is unbeatable for good food in the Greater Boston area. The real gem, though, was the owner. I had requested no dairy and no onions as the description indicated both were included. When I arrived to pick up the food, this sweet man told me he was sorry but it would take just a few more minutes since the chicken had onion powder and he was making it a special way to avoid onions for me! What a gem. You could just feel the amount of care and love that went into making the meals. I would recommend them 100%! read more

My dad always says that the bread is the vehicle for the sandwich - without good bread, it can't go anywhere. In translation, a good sandwich has got to have good bread. Boy do they have it here at Tru Foods Kitchen. The ciabatta is outstanding. Put it in the panini grill and it is magnificent. The perfect crunch. I got the caprese sandwich with chicken. It was delicious. I devoured it. Haven't had a better sandwich in the area! Highly recommend. read more

The Sonia panini is amazing! I was in town for work and came back a second time before I left. Sam, the owner is also great. Overall 10 out of 10! read more

Owner friendly, cares about his work. Sandwich tasty, obvious care in preparation. Nice conversation!

Order at least 30 minutes ahead. At least! It is a one man show! Very busy during lunch hours.

Pro tip: you absolutely must try Tru Foods Kitchen. We've lived in Watertown for a while, but went for lunch for the first time today and it blew us away. I had the Halal chicken and rice. The sauces and seasoning flavors were incredible! I love that it comes with a generous side salad too. My boyfriend got the Sonia Panini, and after his first bite he put it down and just says "wow". Don't make the same mistake we made, which is waiting too long to try this place! read more

We ordered a variety of food for the family to sample & enjoy together. The servings were very large and delicious! Sonia: The chicken was perfectly tender and had wonderfully complex flavors. Coriander mint sauce?! These guys know what they're doing. I loved the Panini style grilling! The chicken soup was a surprising combination of flavors and I really enjoyed it. There were many greens in it and it was seasoned just right. It's rare for me not to add salt but this was perfect as was. We loved the veggie wrap too! My kids inhaled it and I was so happy they left some for me to sample as well. Zero complaints. Sammich: The roast beef was a lovely cut and again, just great balance with the different flavors and vegetables. Love the horseradish zing! Will definitely return here. Perfect to pick up on an afternoon to take for a picnic somewhere! Friendly staff and an eye on flavor. Can't wait to order again! I would only wish they would do something cool with some dessert options, something again reflecting an unusual but delightful combination of flavors. read more

Delicious sandwiches, wraps and salads. They also just added chicken and rice which I highly recommend.

Tru Foods blows me away every time. Their sandwiches are so freaking good and everyone there is kind and welcoming!

This place popped up after the previous similar restaurant moved out, so I decided to give it a try. Good online ordering system and prompt pick up time! We've had 2 of their soups (chicken and quinoa), pretty yummy with good mix of ingredients, especially the chicken! Also tried their Chicken Tikka panini - again, very flavorful ingredients, nicely made, liked it a lot. My only comment would be it wasn't super crunchy, and I like my panini crunchy, but wasn't a big deal, was glad to try it for sure. I'll be back to try more of their sandwiches! read more

I had the aloo wrap which was great. Good spice level which left it lingering, wasn't overwhelming and kept me coming back for more. The lettuce added a nice crunch. read more

Ordered here for lunch through delivery service a Chicken Cesar Wrap and it was awful. First off the lettuce was wilted, brown and soggy and the chicken was fatty and some of it looked under cooked. The whole lunch had to be tossed it was so inedible. I was shocked since the reviews for this place looked promising. Never ordering from here again, since it was a terrible lunch and ruined my appetite. read more

My first visit and I'm definitely returning to enjoy other items on the menu. I went with the spicy chicken salad and it was well prepared, fresh and packed with flavor. read more

Love this place. They have amazing sandwiches. I ordered the pulled pork and loved it! Friendly owner and fast service.

Best sandwich spot in the neighborhood. So far I've ordered their grilled cheese, buffalo chicken wrap, and a very excellent chicken cesar wrap that I would go as far as saying is the best chicken cesar wrap I've ever had. Will be going back soon for another of these. read more

What can I say that hasn't been said before, my first time ordering and with Yelp everything about ordering and payment is simplified! I had a turkey and pesto panini along with the spicy chicken soup which had the right amount of spice, definitely delicious! I'm not usually a panini fan but the idea of pesto and turkey intrigued me and Yes it is to die for!! Five stars, two thumbs up read more

What a surprise, friendly and fast but most importantly- delicious. Only moved to Watertown a year ago and this place is so convenient it's an obvious place to go for take out lunch. I assumed I would get a typical lunch sandwich and soup I had no idea the flavors that would be present by the unique menu items. Found myself liking everything on the menu lol - you just can't go wrong here. Looking forward to placing a bulk order for the next hosted office lunch and learn. Great new place to try out ! read more

Best chicken sandwich wrap I've head in a while. Was so good, I came back after an hour to order 6 more for my team!

I'm a vegetarian so usually don't expect much from sandwiches. The owner Sam introduced their Caprese Panini to me. I didn't eat it until I arrived at home....I almost went back to get a second one right after finishing it!! It was sooo delicious. I went there again a different time but the store was closed. I went again today for the Caprese Panini. My mouth was already watering when holding it...strongly recommended! read more

awesome food I had the blt absolutely the best BLT I have had highly recommended

Absolutely delicious, lovely service, and quick and easy pickup. I haven't had a more flavorful lunch from a restaurant in a long while. We had the veggie wrap, the sonia sandwich, the mushroom soup and the lentil soup and couldn't be more content. Their soups are the best I've had from a restaurant, very hearty and tasty - definitely exceeded expectations. read more

popped in here 5 minutes ago for a Sonia sandwich on ciabatta. finished the sandwich in 30 seconds. absolutely delicious. had to inhale the whole thing right away. it's so easy to overlook chicken when it goes in a sandwich - this chicken was juicy and perfectly seasoned/spiced. the cheese complemented it perfectly, and whatever that green stuff was, it was amazing. 5 stars! read more
