I have a voice handicap and they say my party in a quiet cubby within the dining space. It was beyond perfect and allowed for meaningful conversation over dinner without the concern of not being heard. They went above and beyond.

A tried and true favorite restaurant, with a large and varied menu, consistent service and the ability to linger when it’s not crowded. The lunch trio special of a non-alcoholic beverage, starter and sandwich or wrap was economical. Suitable for everyone, especially vegetarian and vegan leaning guests who appreciate color, texture and flavor. Keep shining True Food Kitchen!
