    Been looking for an opportunity to try True Foods and landed on it when we went toward Mall . Walked into a rather empty restaurant primarily because it is a large space bright with lot of natural light so the limited seats that were occupied made it look relatively empty Chris was our sever and he was spot on with recommendations Edamame dumplings- low on salt n acidity dumplings had pronounced truffle flavor . Would have benefited with a squeeze of lemon Farmers salad roasted cauliflower carrots dates n tahini apple cider vinaigrette - simple yet delicious Grass fed burger had a good sauce lightly seasoned perfectly cooked medium well - they didn't have the Air fryer potato fries so we got the roasted sweet potatoes per Chriss suggestion. It was very dry and shriveled. Wasn't very appealing to the eye nor taste buds Good food , seemed fresh , light on seasoning and spice . This place is not for anyone wanting bold , well seasoned umami flavors. It's a bit pricey but It's a healthy kind of meal so it seems ok .

    Had an excellent experience. After reading the Yelp review, we decided to go. The food was great, and the service was just as good. This place is very clean and large. It can clearly seat about 100+. The menu had no pictures. But it had a good number of items. We had a Korean noodle bowl w/steak and a chicken wrap. We also started with a hummus appetizer. All of them tasted very good. The manager there was really nice, too. We have been going to the Menlow Park mall for the last 20+ years, and I saw this place in ads in the mall and finally decided to stop by. No complaints and no disappointment. The food and ingredients taste fresh. We will likely return.

    Online I found True food kitchen and I gave it a try. What about True Food Kitchen? The ambiance is great, it is a big dining room with balanced décor and beautiful natural light coming in from the big windows; (I was there at lunch) The food was good, healthy, light and tasty; the appetizer EDAMAME DUMPLING was very good, you could taste the truffle oil that make them surprisingly different, I continue my lunch with an ALL AMERICAN BURGER with a Tuscan Kale Salad as side and I completed it with a Chocolate flourless cake; The only thing they should work on was the Hospitality, the workers could make a bit more effort to make you feel the True Experience of this place, not just True Food but also True human connection.

    This was a great spot to break my fast. The edamame dumplings were a first for me--and they were so good. I was also craving shrimp, and the vegetable noodle bowl with added shrimp definitely hit the spot. The space is large and inviting, making it perfect for casual dining with friends, coworkers, or even as a go-to lunch spot. The staff was friendly and polite, and I'd definitely come back to explore more of the appetizers and other dishes.

    Excellent food! Everything tasted so fresh. The feta hummus platter was delicious. My daughter devoured her kids pasta, the sauce was very nicely made. The sourdough pizza is quite large and delicious. The server was kind and attentive. The restaurant was spotless, cozy, and very clean. I felt quite comfortable with the absolute cleanliness. Highly recommend this spot!

    Ginger margarita

    This is a great place for a good healthy meal. I had the turkey burger and a side kale salad. I took half of the turkey sandwich home and the turkey burger was even better the second day-spices were more intense! The ginger margarita was the best cocktail I have had all year-delicious-5 stars. Service was good-friendly & attentive. The only reason this restaurant does not receive 5 stars is the price. I thought it was a bit pricey for a chain restaurant.

    Went here for lunch and overall it was a pleasant experience. Healthy food options, cocktails and dessert available as well. Service was great. It's a full sit down restaurant, pleasant ambiance, spacious and clean. Food didn't look exceptional but was delicious. I was not a fan of pizza with ricotta and mushrooms, it tasted bland therefore the combination didn't work for me. Tuna bowl and steak were good, hummus was acceptable. I liked that they had fresh juices. Glass of Bellini was barely half full (not a depicted on menu) but dirty till the rim from peach purée, not sure how that came about.

    Korean Noodle Bowl with chicken DELICIOUS!
    Patti G.

    Based on the previous reviews we had high hopes. It's easy to get to off the GSP, good variety and serves beer. It's very loud. I'm 59 and my husband is 69. They had great music playing but the high ceilings and hard surfaces make for super-acoustics. We could hardly hear each other or the waiter. The place was almost empty so it wasn't other people making noise. My glass noodle bowl with added chicken was absolutely delicious! My husband's sourdough chicken mozzarella sandwich was bland, no flavor. I believe our waiter was new but he should have been monitored more closely. We had to ask to get a waiter to our table then when I asked him what his fav thing was on the menu, he said they took his fav off the menu. Then We had to ask someone to find him so we could get the bill. The place was clean and spacious and had a nice varied menu but really loud.

    Fantastic layout of cooks!

    Oh wonderful meal very fresh and well prepared. Feel as though you're eating very healthy food.. I like the seasonal menu my favorite butternut squash. Such a clean, cool south of the border feel decorum nice music playing as well and a place you can watch the baseball game . I like the service, very attentive and knowledgeable of the menu .

    Y'ALL! Run, don't walk, to True Food Kitchen! I don't know why it took me so long to try this place. I initially thought the menu focused solely on (in my mind "unsexy") vegan (VG), vegetarian (V), and gluten-free (GF) options. While they definitely cater to those dietary needs, True Food Kitchen offers something for everyone, even meat eaters. Their menu is extensive, covering shareables, entrees, sandwiches, pizzas, bowls, mains, sides, desserts, and there's even the TrueTrio bundle deal at $19.50 for 1 main/1 pairing/1 bev. I know everything is made with fresh, organic ingredients (because my taste buds don't lie), and somehow they manage to pack a ton of flavor into every bite. Even the smallest detail, like a perfectly cut grilled onion, was incredibly delicious and satisfying. Ancient Grains Bowl topped with Artic Salmon 10/10 **FOR THE WIN! Roasted Brussels Sprouts 9/10 **SIMPLY DELICIOUS

    Spinach and wild mushrooms pizza. Super crispy and creamy

    What an amazing restaurant! My first time ever going to True Food was in California, I was so sad that I wouldn't be able to frequent the restaurant as much since it was so far. To my surprise, there was one a couple of minutes away! True Food is not only 100% seed oil free, but it also has fresh seasonal menus at reasonable prices. The staff has always been super friendly and the place is warm and clean. If you want a yummy healthy meal with reasonable prices and a good ambiance I 100% recommend!

    True Foods is a concept that seems to try to mix Seasons 52 with Chili's/ Fridays. It just doesn't translate well. My party ordered the grass fed burger, chicken sandwich, chocolate cookie and cocktails. I'd only return for the cocktails. If your party has dietary restrictions like vegan, and want cocktails then I'd suggest it. Otherwise, it would be a no. Expensive and not even worth it. My teenage son didn't even finish the half of my very sad cheeseburger.

    Updated review from two years ago, I tried the a margarita pizza yesterday after taking a…read moresabbatical. I am lowering my rating because the pizza crust isn't the same. Please note that you may like this type of "thin crust". The bottom of the crust felt and tasted like maybe it's over coated with cornmeal; the texture felt gritty crunchy. This would work if anyone prefers this texture. The sauce just tasted like it was freshly ladled over (no oven baked in flavor). The topping left very little space for the crust edge. I am still stuck on how unfamiliar the crust texture was. I am used to thin crust texture from raised bread dough not a corn-meal like feel. Another reviewer was also baffled with the crust. Reheat review: unfortunately, was not convincing to nudge up the rating. From tip to mid way of the slice, the structure was floppy. From mid way to the edge of the slice: structure held up. Flavor was still good, maybe now better tasting bc sauce now tasted baked in because of the re heating. Service was on time.

    This is my favorite pizzeria to go to whenever I'm in the area! The food is always fresh and…read moreabsolutely delicious. The staff is very friendly and welcoming, and the place is always clean which makes the experience even better. My favorite is their margherita pizza -- it's perfectly cheesy with just the right amount of sauce. I also love that the crust is thin and holds up nicely with no flop. Highly recommend if you're looking for a great slice!

    I just wanted to give an update to the review I posted a few years ago, and provide tips for other…read morecustomers in the area. I highly recommend people to get donuts and coffee from Frappe Joe's rather than Dunkin or Starbucks down the road. First of all, the baked goods are made fresh daily at Joe's rather than shipped in from a factory. You can taste the difference. Second, I've had way more positive customer service experiences at Joe's than the other two places combined. Third, they also have salads, wraps, and pitas. Try the falafel. When I ordered it, I got it in a wrap with greens, cucumbers, and tahini. I thought it great. The falafel had good spices and a crispy outside. It looked small, but I found it to be very filling. And it wasn't sloppy. I hate when you're eating a wrap and it disintegrates through your fingers. This held up well, even when I started eating it 15 mins later, so whoever crafted it knew what they were doing. I also think the price was good for what I got in return. The coffee is still great too. I wish more people would consider the quality and care that small businesses put into everything they do in order to compete with the corporate coffee shops. If they did, they'd realize how much better it all is at Frappe Joe's. And don't forget to tip, folks, since the customer service deserves it.
