Really terrible experience. Almost comical how bad it was. The food was dry and void of any meaningful flavor, and service was like traffic on the 35.
The edamame guac and the cauliflower were great appetizers.
The pizza would have been great but it came out a cold.
The Spaghetti Squash casserole was lacking even though I added shrimp
The polenta was as well.
It may just be the current menu. I ate here quite awhile ago and loved it. Everything I had gotten on the menu was delicious. This about 2 years ago though.
We're sorry to learn that you weren't impressed and we hope you'll consider returning to enjoy the great service we pride ourselves on offering. It's a disappointment to learn that your food was so 'lackluster' and we truly apologize for that. Thank you for your candid feedback, as we want to make sure that we are improving.
Delicious food. Covid conscience.
Hi there! It's great to know you found every aspect of our restaurant to be clean, comfortable, and inviting. Ensuring your complete comfort is very important to us, as we want to see you back again soon!
This place was very beautiful and I loved the avacodo appetizer
Thank you for your compliment. We take pride knowing that our ingredients are always fresh and are happy you noticed! Hope to see you in again soon.
Our drinks were fabulous and our meals were sub par. My salmon came out cold. When it was replaced the new piece came out dry. After a few bites I decided not to finish my meal.
Amy, I am so incredibly sorry we dropped the ball with your salmon on the recent visit. Your food should never be cold or dry, so I truly apologize for that. I am going to follow up with the chef so he can make sure that everyone on that station is aware of temperatures and also the quality of the salmon being sent out so this won't happen again. Thank you for your feedback!
Always enjoy meals here and it's right downtown which makes it super convenient!

First time at True Foods. Found everything about it was very good. The welcome, service staff, food and ambiance are all wonderful. It was spacious and relaxed. When we got there at 7:45 every other table was full. So great to see people out enjoying each other’s company over delicious food.

Our waiter was amazing and so friendly! He was very knowledgeable about the menu and checked on us, but not overboard. The food was absolutely delicious. We had the Brussel sprouts and the cauliflower for appetizers, amazing! I had the grilled chicken Parmesan with winter vegetables and I’m still thinking about it. And we tried the squash pie, and highly recommend it!

Roasted Cauliflower.....what more could I say?!
The roasted cauliflower is one of my favorites also! Next time you are in, make sure to try the roasted brussels. They are amazing also, although nothing compares to the cauliflower!
Overall good experience. The ordering off the app killed it for us. Drinks are almost impossible to order and our waitress wasn’t well versed in what they had and didn’t. Also everything came very slow like water and drinks. Food was good but maybe just not the best place to go for a special occasion but a regular place out
I sincerely apologize that you did not enjoy the OnDemand ordering. Please know that you are always welcome to order through your server like a traditional dining experience. We want every experience to be as comfortable as possible for our guests so we welcome any feedback to help make it that way. Please feel free to reach out to me at the restaurant if you would like. Thanks, Vanessa Johnson Restaurant Manager
Love it!! From the location, to the food, and the server .. it was all awesome. Went for my sister in laws birthday.
they have a unique little spin to their food but it was all delicious. vegan-vegetarian- and for the meat eaters.
A win for all 😊

It’s time to find sources to get back to the full menu
I'm sorry we still have not put what you are looking for back on our menu. We are adding some new items on 1/6 and unfortunately some items that were previously on the menu are not coming back until possibly our spring menu. Our new items debuting next week are awesome though and I hope you find a new favorite!
Always delicious! Great service!!! Try the avocado toast with egg on top and the pancake special.

We strive to provide special tastes that will stand out and hopefully make True Food Kitchen Austin, TX (Seaholm) one of your favorites. Thank you for your remarks.

Whenever I go to Austin, True Foods is a “must” for me. I was lucky enough to go twice. Love the flavors and it’s always hard for me to decide what to order. Come to Henderson, NV PLEASE!!!!
I love hearing how much you enjoy TFK and that its a struggle for you to decide what to order because its all so good! Thank you for that! Just so you know, there is a location at the Forum Shops in Vegas and also a location in Summerlin at the Downtown Summerlin shopping area. Hope that helps!
Tasty and very impressed how vegetables can be seasoned and complemented together and be healthy. Will be coming back soon!

Our server, Tamara was amazing!
Awesome! Thanks so much for letting us know, I will make sure to show her this review tonight- it will make her day!
Ambiánce was great. Place felt modern swank upper class with a downtempo twist. Good table sizing. Good lighting.
Music well leveled.
Food was good, the butternut squash was fantastic’ ! One of my apps tasted imbalanced but still good, overall presentation on point. Texture was there.
Server was knowledgeable and excellent, Lilly was very attentive and laid back :)
Will go again .

Celebrating engagement anniversary
Glad you had a great time celebrating! Thank you for choosing us for your special occasion!
The online menu and ordering system is very confusing. We managed but our server was very sweet and offered to help.
I am so glad the server offered help for our new OnDemand system. Just so you know for the future, you are always welcome to order through your server as well and not use the OnDemand. We want the experience to be as easy as possible for you, however that may be!
Sat for 20 mins before someone from the service staff to help us. At least get us a damn drink.
Our server was horrible. We watched other staff smile, greet and serve their customers. Our waitress couldn’t be less attentive. Very disappointed and her tip reflected it, along with a note as to why.
I enjoy the fresh food here and will most likely come back. Next time tho it will be the the Domain location.
I apologize for the other evening. You should not have waited for 20 minutes for a server to approach your table. I was able to find your check so I can follow up with that server & also being more friendly, even though we are wearing masks and its hard to see a smile, it definitely should be reflected in the tone of her voice and her eyes. If you do come back to our location, please ask for me, I would love to stop by and make sure its better experience for you. -Vanessa Johnson
I realize that many restaurants have to peel back during covid, the menu today at TrueFood certainly reflects that. However the choices left on the menu are not diverse and don't reflect some of their best items. Sadly there really weren't many items I was interested in. But I was especially disappointed with the wine and bar selection. As these are not items that have a short shelf life, I was surprised to see one brand each of gin and bourbon (and not a great brand), out of vermouth, and inability to make pretty much any standard cocktail that wasn't on their short menu. The food itself was fine, but not as good as I remembered it. The turkey burger was sorely lacking salt, and therefore flavor. But our server was excellent - very attentive and did a great job.
Hi Katherine, Thanks for letting us know of your disappointing experience the other day. I followed up with our bar manager & we actually just got vermouth in yesterday due to requests for it. He wanted me to make sure you knew that we have a special makers mark that was bottled exclusively for TFK as well. I also followed up with the chef about the turkey burger so he knew that he needed a bit more seasoning, so thanks for letting us know. Hope to see you back in soon!
The food was excellent, great menu. Would definitely go again when in Austin
No matter what you get here, we're glad you always enjoy it! Fresh ingredients help us to create only the best food around and your comments help us keep up the great work. Thank You.

All of the dishes were delicious but the cauliflower was definitely a favorite for everyone.
The cauliflower is my favorite also! I am so glad you hear your party enjoyed it! Thanks for the kind words about the food, we appreciate it more than you know!
