What a great new dining place! The food & drinks have a locally grown, fresh, organic theme. Our party of 8 sampled a little of everything. They have a nice selection of refreshing beverages, particularly liked the Medicine Man with Pomegranate juice, blueberries & black tea. Everything had a satisfying taste, yet you didn't feel uncomfortably full. We were seated at a long wooden dining table, with unique extras - like the dish towel napkins and fun chairs. The decor is terrific - high ceilings, great wall colors, over sized unique light fixtures. The dinner team from hostesses, to wait staff and kitchen support all have great complimentary outfits - working as a one unit, which translates to quick, efficient customer service. The acoustics do not allow for a intimate conversations, the atmosphere is open and has a good energy buzz. Another nice showing for the Fox restaurant group. read more

The Wild Ahi Sliders from True Food Kitchen come with wasabi, radishes, cucumber and a sesame brioche. Don't be mislead, the wasabi is merely a nice little portion which gives you a perfect essence, no epic nasal burns here. I ordered mine with the sweet potato hash which was absolutely amazing and the Green Arnie (Matcha Green Tea & Honey Lemonade) for my drink which was very refreshing and a perfect match. If you get the opportunity to stop in, look for Nate he's the cool guy at the bar. He'll get you squared away. True Food Kitchen is a cool place, great atmosphere, with awesome people. Highly recommended! read more

Ingredients are fresh. Service is pristine. The tofu and bean dish with brown rice was aright. I liked the pineapple drink I had. Wasn't a big fan of the zucchini baked pasta though. Its long thin sliced zucchini instead of pasta, and the texture just isn't right. On the pricy side but most of it seems healthy. I guess I can't have both health and taste. read more

The Nojito's are fantastic! I find mojitos a bit too sweet but the nojitos never are. I had the salmon sandwich with the kale salad and the sweet potato hash. I've had the salmon before (fresh, thick, tender) and the kale salad (the kale is cooked but far from limp and comes sprinkled with what appears to be parmesan cheese and bread crumbs). Today, I also had the sweet potato hash (sweet potato and caramelized onions - yum!) and that plus the nojito are reason enough to go. My friend had a chicken salad and a medicine man drink. He wasn't wowed by the salad which consisted of your basic salad with chicken but he said he'd try the place again. The place is pricey though. The sandwich was around $15, and the nojito might have run $5? Went at 12:30 on a weekday and the place was packed. We had to wait about 15 minutes. It's easier to get in right away at dinner. read more

Yet another GREAT Fox Restaurant Concept - actually probably my favorite of all of them! My wife and I had dinner here on Valentine's Day with another couple. They had an enticing prix fixe menu that we couldn't pass up. The server was friendly, even though we were there right up until close, and the food was very good. I had the Herb Hummus as an appetizer and the Steak Tacos for my entree. The hummus was delicious. The tacos were also very good - I would have them again - but they fell apart very easily, which was a bit of a turnoff. More than anything, you have to appreciate a mainstream restaurant like True Food dedicating itself to using seasonal, locally grown, organic food as much as possible. That alone will make me return for another meal soon! read more

4 of us arrived on a Friday night, and the place was hoppin'. We were seated promptly after a 10 minute wait, and since it was Friday night, it was time for a beverage! I started out with a blood mary, and it was great! Followed that up with a skinny margarita, which was tasty in my book :). Appetizers: onion flatbread and dumplings. The dumplings came in a great broth, but the onion flatbread was awesome! Really thin, almost cracker like crust! Sides: Kale salad - my friend raved about this dish, but I thought it wasn't anything special. It definitely looked and tasted healthy, interpret that how you will. Entrees: grilled salmon -- this dish was really tasty! could have used a tad more seasoning, but it was perfectly cooked. I really enjoyed the arugula salad that accompanied it, and the terrific crunch from the pomegranate seeds. Dessert: The four of us split the cobbler, which was topped with a non-dairy ice cream. This was surprisingly not bad, especially the ice cream! Great textures. Overall Food: Good "healthy" food, try the salmon and the onion flatbread. A little pricey, but that's necessary for organic, farm-raised, etc. The four of us + tip was $150 +. Environment: it was LOUD, we almost were screaming at each other to be heard. The decor is modern casual. Service: Our waiter was fabulous, she definitely lives the Dr. Weil lifestyle. read more

Ive been here 3x. First time, I had the organic ricotta ravioli. Which was quite good, but oh so salty. Almost unbearably salty, and I am a salt-loving girl. I had a hard time finishing it. The second time, I had a a pretty bland salad that doesnt even seem to be on the menu anymore. I wonder why. Third time, I ordered steak tacos. I keep coming back because I want to love it. As you can see though, I havent found something worth ordering twice yet. Bad sign after 3 visits. I ordered my tacos well done and another server brought them out. They were medium-well which was totally fine with me and I was about to start eating them when our server suddenly appeared, said something about them not being well done, and stole the plate out from in front of me without even giving me half a second to make a decision, and then took it back to the kitchen. When it returned, the steak was kind of chewy. I guess Im just used to the high quality meat we use at home? The beans that came with it were...just okay. The honey lemonade was too sweet. I had about 1/3 of it and couldnt handle the rest. My mom ordered a soup (not the miso) and it smelled great but tasted...flavorless. *SIGH* I'll probably give them one last try before I call shenanigans on the whole joint. read more

First off, True Foods is a beautiful restaurant! I love the decor, and I even love how the staff is dressed. It's just an overall nice place to be. Some friends and I tried it for the first time recently. LOVED the hummus appetizer and shaved turkey sandwich. Out of curiosity, we tried the kale-ade... mistake. A $6 mistake. I really even tried to like it. It's just a big jumble of unpleasant flavors. For dessert we shared the lemon tart, and the rhubarb crisp. Both were tremendous! With all this tasty food to try, it's hard not to get carried away. But keep in mind if you get an appetizer, drink, meal, and dessert... expect to have a pretty hefty bill. Other than that, my only real complaint is that the light fixtures are really yucky dusty. I know we live in the desert, and it's in a hard to reach place, but it's gross to look up and see all that dust looming above your food... read more

Once again, my favorite restaurant didn't not disappoint. From the moment my friend and I walked in the doors, we were greeted with authentic smiles and genuine hospitality. Once seated a wonderful waiter checked in with us to take our drink order. In a matter of minutes he was back to take our food order. Prompt, courteous, helpful, service is what I have become accustomed to receiving at TFK. Our orders consisted of: shitaki and lettuce tofu cups (delish and fresh!), caramelized onion tart (sounds much better than it really is), harvest chopped salad (an absolute FAV which I order almost every visit!), street tacos (my friends go to staple food here) and the roasted chicken (absolutely gives the panang curry a run for its money!! Honestly, the roasted chicken was SO incredibly phenomenal, I wish I would have gotten an order to go! Since I didn't...they may find me at dinner there again tomorrow--since this is the only time this meal is served. Bottom line...this place keeps getting better and better! As a side note--we heard from a reliable source this evening that the menu will be undergoing some changes in the coming months. I can only imagine the delectable meals that await us! read more

This is the place my co-workers and I go to for lunch every now and then. I am not really sure why lol... It's good but I am bored with the menu. It is just ok and it's always busy. Is it because we think it's healthy? Not sure... I like what I get which always the same... The turkey pita with sweet potatoes. It is decent and pricey. read more

True Food Kitchen - New American Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

This is a very unique dining spot. It is intended to get you a healthy, nutritional alternative to the crap you eat everyday... Or not if you are a total health nut. Get the watermelon salad and drink their juices. I liked the Pad Thai I ordered, it was a new experience for me. read more

A great selection of fresh, healthy food options. Birkenstock sandals optional . Every dish we tried was full of flavor. Will definitely return. read more

True Food Kitchen - Tofu & shiitake mushroom lettuce wrap. Yum! - New American Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

I've been here about 2 or 3 times and each experience has been pleasant. The drink concoctions are delicious! I have tried the Kale-aid and the Apple Carrot Ginger tonic. Both were very crisp and refreshing. I felt "healthily renewed" after the first sip! Their fresh ingredients are what will keep me coming back. Service is good too! No complaints. read more

As out-of-town visitors we were looking for a spot for dinner with a variety of options for our family's diverse diets...2 vegans, 1 vegetarian and 1 meat-and-potatoes dad. This restaurant fit the bill and we could not have been happier with our choice. Not only was there something on the menu for everyone, but it was fresh, delicious and served in a laidback but appealing environment. But what truly elevated the experience for us was the fantastic service. Our server, Abigail, was so attentive and helpful and quite possibly the most genuinely upbeat and friendly restaurant employee I have ever encountered! She answered a myriad of questions, checked on us regularly and made us feel welcome and well taken care of as guests. If we lived in the area we would definitely be regulars because of the good food and Abigail's excellent service! read more

My husband and I had lunch here while vacationing in Phoenix. We tried a few different dishes and were super impressed. We loved the flavor profile of the food. Their use of herbs, spices, and fresh ingredients in general was delightful. It's the kind of food you could eat again and again because it's good without being too rich or overly creative. The dishes were spot on. The restaurant is open and airy. We were able to see the chefs preparing homemade raviolis in the kitchen which made us want to come back again for dinner that night. We also felt safe from a COVID protocol perspective and appreciated the great service. read more

This was $14! I'm sure it will taste delicious but the price point seems a little high for what it is. Spaghetti squash with marinara and cheese, no meat, so pretty sure it cost less than $5 to make. read more

This is a solid spot for a healthy and delicious meal. I had dinner with some friends on a Friday night, the place was packed but not bursting at the seems. The service is very fast and the wait staff is friendly. We were pondering a bottle of Cannonau from Italy that the waitress was not very familiar with, she asked the bartender about the flavor profile and reported back to us. We ended up sending the bottle back because the wine was really terrible and might have turned. We got a new bottle of Pinot noir from Oregon which was way better. This restaurant really stands out when it comes to food being prepared in an unfussy manner and flavor profiles that pack a punch. My favorite dish here is the edamame dumplings with dashi and truffle oil. I literally need a moment to compose myself after biting in to a dumpling because it's that good. The edamame filling is texturally pleasing and hearty, it's creamy and has a edamame taste that is not too overpowering. The dashi and truffle oils compliments the earthy edamame flavor enough to curl your toes. I have ordered this dish many of times and it is always pleasing to the palate. The other dishes are also very good. I ordered the striped bass as my main course, the grill lines on that perfectly crisp skin was divine. The savory and hint of sweet flavor was well balanced and worked very well in the that dish. read more

True Food and especially our server Tessa went above and beyond to make our daughter's birthday special. The food was incredible, we had a beautiful place on the patio, and they were amazing at accommodating dietary restrictions. It was a wonderful celebration and one we will never forget. We are so thankful and will be very regular customers!!! read more

We tried this place for the first time this week after hearing about from several folks... The lunch was $35 for two with only one drink inclusive of tip and you should not expect gargantuan portions... What I liked: - Excellent, fresh food served in a healthy fashion - Reasonable portions - Great service even during the lunch rush We tried the Ahi Sliders - nice wasabi and good crunch, the roasted asparagus - just rights and perfectly seasoned, The "TLT" - good sized sandwich, I recommend it with the avocado, and the Kale Salad - OK but it needed a little more zip What I did not like: - Really noisy, I can't recommned this place for a quiet lunch... it is pretty hard to carry on a conversation even when seated side by side read more

My wife wanted to go here a few weeks back for her birthday so we went on a Saturday afternoon. Parking was easy to find and there was no wait to get a table. Wish it had been a touch cooler, but it wasn't so we decided to eat indoors. Had a little snafu with our servers where someone who was not our waiter took our drink orders, but it was straightened out pretty quickly. We each ordered one of the signature drinks, the wife got cucumber lemonade (I think) and I got a green arnold palmer. I liked the g.a.p. For the meal, don't remember what the wife had, I got the chicken sausage pizza. It was fine, nothing out of the ordinary. Basically, that's how the whole meal was, okay, but didn't blow me away (not that I'm a huge healthy/organic foodie kind of guy though). I guess I'd go here again, but I probably wouldn't suggest it. (I did think the music was a little loud...) read more

Let me just begin by saying that I am a huge fan of Fox Restaurant Concepts. I had heard so much about True Food Kitchen, so I decided to grab a quick bite to eat. While previously on their website, I was drooling over their Ahi Tuna Sliders; as a result, I ordered them. I must add that I believe that wasabi (a prominent flavor) BELONGS with anything ahi related. These sliders came with a wasabi aioli, but it was very bland, and you could not even identify that wasabi was involved. I asked if there was another wasabi sauce available that was stronger, but instead, the chef gave me a Sriracha aioli which was more mayonnaise (again) than anything else. The server saw that I was still not enjoying the sandwich (it all lacked flavor, even the fish), so she had the chef make a stronger aioli. It was ALMOST there. It was not even hot, only a hit of wasabi. I know that everyone has a different heat preference, but all I was asking was to TASTE the wasabi. I needed lunch and needed to jet so I finished the meal with the last wasabi aioli attempt. I was ready to pay, and to my surprise, the server comped my meal! It was a pleasant surprise. I was not impressed at all by my first experience with the food, but because of the nice gesture by the server, I will return again. True Food Kitchen has a great atmosphere and a friendly and attentive staff. Try it for yourself. :) read more

I love the food here. I've been to one in San Diego and it was just as good. Although, I do have to admit that our server at this location looked a little worn out. I could tell that she was tired and ready to get the hell outa there. We were sat right away a week from today on the patio. Upon being sat we noticed that they were nearing closing time. I ordered the medicine man drink and we started with a vegetable crudites but substituted the hummus. The server forgot to sub it but it was remedied right away. I did, however, love my medicine man drink. To follow I got the chicken chopped salad. It definitely was an amazing salad. I loved the sweetness of the dates along with the sharp flavor of the champagne vinaigrette. Nearing the end of our dinner we were offered dessert. Normally one would wait until the guest is all finished but we weren't too bothered. We were full anyways! haha. I thought it was a nice gesture of the server to offer us free food and drink that was going to be thrown out anyways. I love how they try not to waste! read more

I absolutely loved the openness of the restaurant with it's brightness and open kitchen. There were literally people preparing food several feet from us. They definitely don't have anything to hide in their kitchen. Upon quick glance of the menu I found a couple vegan options to choose from and had a tough time deciding between "Andy's Favorite 'TLT'" and the "Teriyaki Brown Rice Bowl" but when with Andy's Favorite "TLT" which Tempeh, Lettuce. Tomato. Avocado, Vegenaise, and Whole Grain Bread. I had the choice to pair it with a kale salad or sweet potato hash and went with the hash. While it was tasty and I'd say our experience at True Food Kitchen was unique I must say the prices are a bit steep for the amount of food you receive. I understand it's healthier food and often that comes with a price tag, but $10 for a basic sandwich is a bit much in my opinion. read more

This was our 2nd visit to this True Food location and again we were well taken care of by the staff and servers. We came twice with larger parties of peeps and the staff is more than capable to handle groups. It does get a bit loud though which was the knock of 1 star. I don't like having to feel like I'm yelling to my guests who are right across from me. The food is excellent. Fresh, temperature appropriate, and delicious. Kids portions are very generous as are the adult portions. It would be easy to share a kid meal with your little one or have them share with you if your little person is a light eater. We enjoyed the turkey lasagna, red chili shrimp, street tacos, turkey club wrap, salmon, and something else I forget...but it was also very delicious. My son enjoyed the flourless chocolate cake as well and it was delectable. Can't wait to go back to True Food again soon! read more

I had a great experience when I had dinner with my friend here the other night. The waitress was nice and patient with our questions. We ordered a turkey burger with the kale salad and sweet potato. It was delicious!! For beverage, I ordered the vanilla almond milk java and it was so good. The price was reasonable and worth it. I will definitely be coming back. read more

True Food Kitchen - New American Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

I love the food here! To bad I can only get here when I'm in the Phoenix area ....so I always try to make it a reason to build in lunch when we are going through. They have fresh and organic ingredients and many plant based options read more

Love True Food Kitchen (have been to the ones in LA and Houston as well). Food is consistent with the other locations - great quality ingredients, good portions, affordable pricing. Personally, I felt the service was only ok. It felt staffed by teenagers who were keen but not very experienced. The hostess also had a bit of attitude. However the food made us forget everything else. read more

Went to True Food today for lunch, ordered the pizza. I believe they have only one kind (mushrooms, spinach, can't remember what else it had on it). It was just ok, not mind-blowing like I was expecting. It was a bit on the burnt side, and sort of dry. I asked for parmesan and never received it. My daughter ordered the lasagne - it also was just ok, nothing special. But the most disappointing thing is that it comes with nothing else, just this sort of smallish little pile of food in a big bowl. I don't think for what it costs it would hurt to throw in a little bit of garlic bread. It really needed something. Our waiter was not very attentive - but I think he was new. So the next time I'm going to get the grass-fed burger, and will be able to hopefully leave more stars. read more

Great Service. Food is pretty good as well. Don't recommend it for a a romantic dinner/date night. Seating tables are too close... read more

Love this place, love the concept. Great food. I go to this place at least two or three times a month, usually if not for any other reason then to get a Medicine Man, they make me feel good. Was recently there with a few buddies, and we enjoyed the Shrimp Dumplings the Curry Bowl tofu and the turkey Pita, everything here is always delicious and the service is top notch, the staff is very friendly and very informative. I highly suggest if you like healthy food to try this place out it is definitely worth it. The only reason this place does not get 5 stars is because I do feel it is a bit pricey. But I guess you get what you pay for more like 4 & half stars. read more

True Food Kitchen is another successful Fox Restaurant Concept. Along with the other two places I have tried, 'Olive and Ivy' and 'Montana Avenue', I have yet to be disappointed by a meal by this company. I would advise checking out their other places as well. The service was a bit slow, but the food was really good and good for you. The drink I got was really different and refreshing called New Moon (pink grapefruit soda water and agave nectar). They have lots of different drinks to choose from. I had Ahi tuna sliders and for dessert flowerless chocolate cake. All of it was really good and I did not feel heavy or that feeling of needing to sit down at home in front of the television for an hour after eating a meal. I will return hungry and order some other drink on the list. After words I might be doing yoga. The thing with healthy food I find is that you end up trying to keep up with it, and if you are in the Biltmore area I would check it out. Recommendation: To anyone who is a healthy eater and everyone that shops at whole foods. To people who are vegans and non alike that just want a good meal come to true food kitchen. read more

Bottom line- Consistently good healthy food! I have visited here over a dozen times and typically walk away feeling full, but not overly so. I love the organic drink menu and if you are in the mood, the organic vodka ;) Place is veggie, vegan, and gluten-free friendly. Service is a little scattered at times, but nothing notably bad. The sunday brunch is also excellent. The mock chorizo is amazing!! read more

I am a fan of True Food in San Diego and this Phoenix location did not disappoint. My Kale salad was perfectly yummy. I tried the steak street tacos and they were tasty. 3 tacos were a blend of the warm steak bits, and yummy veggies with some sour cream. my son in law had the chicken sausage pizza on a gluten free crust. again, very tasty! The food is tasty and comes out attractively prepared. Our waitress was a delight-helpful and knowledgeable. This location is in the Biltmore shopping center. Parking is validated. read more

I absolutely love True Foods, so much so that I don't mind the prices. I recommend the chicken salad with farro and dates, the butternut squash pizza, and the chicken curry. Their cocktails are also very good, and their patio is nice. Their healthy drinks are also tasty, too. Good service every time I go, and I've never had to wait for a table. I also love their open kitchen. I just wish they had a happy hour. read more

This place is quite cool. They make a note that their menu is prepared in accordance with Dr. Andrew Weil (a well known physician-author) health guidelines. However, don't think that this is a veggie only operation. I had a bison chili to start and it was quite delicious. Then, a tasty chicken sausage thin crust pizza. Try out their site-created sodas. The seasonal one was a grape concoction but tasted more like a crème soda. Not only was the server extremely nice but they also have a lovely outdoor seating area that's shaded. read more

Delicious food, friendly staff, great with GF, and wonderful heated patio. One of my favorite places year round! read more

I adore this place. It does sometime have a wait and it takes a while to get seated but I understand so many people like to come here for dinner. We ended up seating at the bar which is fun as well. I usually order the edamame dumplings to start and get the goat cheese pizza. These are my favorite items on the menu. Top it off with their champagne bottle and we've got a great dinner. Awesome service, great food. read more

Such a great place for tasty health food!!! I love their weekend brunch chicken sausage & kale scramble & jube true almond milk dark chocolate cold pressed coffee!!! Other great items i've had are: the turkey burger, panang shrimp noodles, & the crudite. read more

One of my favorite places to dine. Super nice and friendly staff. Food is always fresh, with the exception of one time I visited.. I ordered the steelhead, (I almost always get this dish), and I'm pretty sure it was microwaved or reheated, which is why I gave 4 stars. It tasted terrible but i was too hungry to send it back. They're normally good about serving fresh food so that was a bit disappointing but overall, amazing place. If you're a clean eater like myself you'll love it here. The ambience inside is calming and the patio is nice in the day with the misters. They also have Juby True juices! Which I love. Try one, you'll love them too. I treat myself to lunch here almost every Saturday afternoon and I intend to continue to. read more

Great appetizers! The Edamame dumplings were yummy, a must try. Healthy and tasty food. read more
