True Food Kitchen - Bethesda

The menu is varied and tasty - much better then when I came 3 years ago. I would return.

There was a little bit of a wait until our server arrived (after seated), but no big deal.

Very Beautiful Aesthetic! And Beautiful Birthday dinner !

Perfect outdoor dining on a cool night! Love the patio heaters!!

Great food with options for vegans, vegetarians, and anyone else.

What a delight to discover True Food Kitchen
The food was absolutely delicious from appetizers to desserts
Service was friendly & efficient & the manager came over to help us put in the App so we could pay
Highly recommended & we will return

Inspired me to eat better myself.

Worse food and drinks I had in a long time!
And there are so much light that you get a feel that you are in the train station cafeteria.

I brought two out-of- town relatives to True Food Kitchen because they like healthy, primarily vegetarian food, and are weight conscious. True Food makes it easy by providing a range of meals (pizzas, grain bowls, pasta and desserts) that feature seasonal vegetables--such as butternut squash in the Fall, and show the calorie count for each dish. I always get the cauliflower appetizer, with tahini and chopped dates. Delicious!

Came here for homecoming dinner and it was excellent

According to our 5 year old food critic, the Kids Pizza was worth the wait...the 2 of them (5 and 2 y/o) ate the whole thing including the crust! Adults all had great meals too!

the 3 of us raved to each other about the food choices we made. Amazingly fresh foods, vegetables, sauces, and grains in our 3 grain bowls. I ordered an extra kale salad and all was wilted with old cuts visible on stems; waiter suggested removal from bill so thank you on that. Rest of meal was superb.

Good food and lovely service — not inexpensive but good value

The place your order online and pay your check makes it seem like a cafeteria. It’s awful and it’s impersonal. Would not continue to go back if it continues. And between Bethesda and DC, we’ve been 50 times.

Got an outdoor table on a beautiful Sunday afternoon for a leisurely lunch. The staff is always so courteous and helpful making suggestions of what to order. I love eating here. I never feel rushed. So many vegetarian and vegan options. As usual, I had my favorites, the brussel sprout appetizer and teriyaki quinoa bowl. I really need to order something different. In the past, I have had the butternut squash soup, edamame dumplings, ancient grains bowl, Korean sweet potato bowl, plant based double cheeseburger, vegan pizza - all delicious and fresh. Highly recommend this place.

Very nice brunch date. I wish they had more selection but food was good
And healthy. However a little overpriced. But such is life when you want to eat healthy. Enjoyed the service. Our server was amazing.

Didn't honor OpenTable reservation, terribly cooked fish, and very little done to remedy all their errors. Better to avoid True Food Kitchen altogether!

I had an evening reservation. Before arriving that day, I spoke with a hostess on the phone who assured me that my reservation was for outdoor seating and there would be no problem fulfilling it. When I arrived at my reservation time, however, I was told that they don't take reservations for outdoor seating and that we'd have an hour long wait! We waited about a half hour and were seated. We then waited about a half hour for our main course to arrive after ordering. Two of us had ordered sea bass and the sea bass was so overcooked that it literally required a knife to be able to cut. We told the waitress about this, and she offered to replace the fish, but we ended up waiting about 15-20 minutes for the replacement. Then, when it arrived, although it was better cooked than the first fish, it was STILL overcooked! After all of these issues, I thought for sure the restaurant would discount the fish or not charge us for it or at least offer us a dessert or something. Apart from apologizing, they did nothing.

Overall, my experience dining at True Food was awful. There are a lot of great restaurants in Bethesda, and this isn't one of them. I suggest you avoid it.

The sea bass was dry

Delicious fall menu! Butternut squash pizza and Panang curry are both excellent.

The food was over cooked. My onions were burnt. My vegetables were cold. And they put a sauce on top of my steak which I specifically seafood not to!!! I will not be returning.

The food was delicious and the weather perfect for dining outside.

Love the menu, food, drinks and service. The noise level is a problem especially for our friend who is hard of hearing. Not sure if there are parts of the restaurant where this is less of a problem or not. We’ll still come there but will need to think about this issue when dining with some friends.

Sat outside - although there is traffic noise, they have done an admirable job at creating an outdoor setting with lights etc. The drinks are fantastic and the waiter was quite lovely. The only minor issue was that we received our entrees before our drinks - but otherwise - fabulous time and we will return.

We absolutely loved Trie Food Kitchen. My colleagues and I will definitely dine there again.

Everything was good, except that the HVAC system was blowing right on me

The place was clean and people were nice. I think reviews are over hyped when it comes to food. I got a burger that tasted and looked like it was something out of a microwave and overcooked the sweet potatoes were luke warm and just didn't look appetizing at all. My wife lasagna bolognese which was edible and actually warm. For $62 I would have had better food at a carnie festival.

We had a great evening and some of the food was very good. My husbands noodle dish and the appetizer and dessert were very good. I didn’t like my vegan burger. It fell apart easily and the cheese sauce was messy. I’m also used to beyond meat and potato buns, so I’m not a good person to decide if it’s a good tasting veggie burger. It probably is.

The best meal I’ve had in a long time. The food was great, the drink was amazing. Service was so friendly. Will be back soon!

Great food! Spacious environment and good service. All around wonderful experience.

Very good. Clean food. The manager even remembered my husband. Attention to detail. Love it!!!

The service was fantastic!!! I love this restaurant!!

It was great! Menu was fantastic. Will def go back

Large outdoor patio, attentive service and yummy healthy food...what's not to like? The grain bowls are particularly delicious - fresh and flavorful.

Food didn't have much taste and the kitchen was somewhat stingy on the ingredients. My smashed avocado toast had very little avocado (the main ingredient)

Amazing food and service!!!!

I wish you could reserve an outdoor table. The wait on a Saturday evening was about 30 minutes.

The food is good and the restaurant is good for vegans. The vegetarian options are great. The reservation process is poor. Even though we have a reservation, we have to wait for an outside table. It does not matter if you have a reservation. Note most of the customer were sitting outside, maybe 2 tables were occupied inside. For the hostess to expect that people with reservations would like to seat inside is unrealistic.

Our server had great recommendations. I don’t recall his name, but he was a taller bald man.

We loved the outside patio dining. Priscilla was a great server. Everything was delicious. The wait to get our food seemed too long, but we figured that like every other place around, they are just short of cooks.

Didn’t honor our reservation to sit outdoors
