Hear from our valued guests
Delicious vegan options! We loved the edamame dumplings and cauliflower appetizer in particular.
Amazing first experience! After looking at this spot on Uber Eats for ages, I finally stopped in to grab a bite. The food was phenomenal and suprisingly SO filling. I think that's because of the quality of their ingredients. Our server Zoey was really nice and attentive :) The food came out super quickly. She provided great recommendations and was able to help me find good gluten-free options on the menu. For gluten free folks I think this place is a must. I ended up ordering the chicken tenders and they were literally the best chicken tenders I've ever had. Super fresh, clean tasting chicken, not too much breading, gluten free, and they came with a really tasty sauce. I also got the honey roasted carrots which were phenomenal, and the Kale Aid, a fresh juice they make in house, which was super tasty. I will absolutely be coming here again and would 100% recommend this. Thanks again for the great service Zoey!
We ordered this Margarita Pizza and it was delicious. Best pizza we had, in a long time. If you are in Chicago, you must try True Foods.
True Food has an excellent selection to make everyone happy. As a vegan, I enjoyed the mushroom pizza. However, there is something for everyone. The atmosphere is nice but the acoustics make it pretty loud as there was a child screaming and it carried throughout the restaurant.
I had an excellent experience dining at True Food. I ordered the grass-fed burger with a side of kale salad, and both were fantastic. The burger was flavorful, satisfying, and not overly heavy, while the kale salad had the perfect crunch without being weighed down by too much dressing. I really appreciate True Food’s commitment to using fresh, high-quality ingredients.
"Wow. Just… wow. True Food Kitchen in Chicago completely blew me away. We came in for dinner and ordered three different meals, and each one was an absolute masterpiece. The flavors were vibrant, the ingredients tasted incredibly fresh, and the presentation was top-notch. It’s rare to find a restaurant that nails every single dish, but they did it. Beyond the superb food, the staff was an absolute delight. Our server was not only friendly and welcoming but also incredibly knowledgeable about the menu, offering great recommendations and answering all our questions with genuine enthusiasm. The entire experience felt seamless and special. If you’re looking for a restaurant that delivers on both incredible, health-conscious food and outstanding service, True Food Kitchen is an absolute must-visit."
We had lunch here yesterday and it was a wonderful experience. The host who greeted us was incredibly kind and welcoming with us and our little one. Our server was also very friendly, attentive, and professional. The food was excellent — fresh, tasty, and very healthy. We’ll definitely be back soon!
10/10 Service from Zoey! She made the experience amazing. I didn't get a picture of the food. This place is legit! As first-timers here, we contemplated coming many times and even ordering on Uber-Eats. I'm so glad I waited until actually experiencing the full array. This is a great environment and great service and the food is healthy, delicious and doesn't make you tired. I got the non alcoholic hot toddie, and grass- fed burger w/ fries. My girlfriend got the kale aid and the chicken tenders. If you are thinking of coming here! please do it. You will not regret.
This is an update to any previous reviews I have given True Food. I came here for lunch today -- solely because I was in the neighborhood and was hungry. My expectations were low since previous experiences have been lackluster and over priced. WOW. It's a new day at True Food. My server Gavin, was downright happy I was here and sitting in his section. My water was kept filled, he hit the right note of engagement. The menu has changed and now features a super trio-lunch special. Great drink, salad and chicken sandwich (highly recommend the chicken and the chopped salad), all for around $20. It was ample. Two people could have split this. Not having a second person, I managed just fine without them. If you had stayed away from True Food, believe me: this is a new everything.
Incredible from start to finish; if you're looking for healthy, look no further. True Food Kitchen absolutely exceeded my expectations. The food was fresh, flavorful, and left me feeling energized instead of weighed down which is something that's not always easy to find when eating out. You can truly taste the quality and intention behind every dish. I do want to note that there are quite a few menu items that include tree nuts. I have a tree nut allergy, and while that initially gave me pause, the staff handled it extremely well. They were knowledgeable, accommodating, and made sure I felt comfortable and safe with my selections. I had no issues at all and never felt limited in my choices. If you're someone who prioritizes healthy eating but still wants food that actually tastes amazing, this place is a must. Great atmosphere, thoughtful service, and food that delivers on both flavor and wellness. I'll definitely be back.
