I like True Kitchen cery much. I have been several times abd always have great food and service. Today I was able to take my sister and niece to celebrate my sister’s birthday. I’ve always eaten outside and today was the first time eating indoors. The food, ambiance, and service was spectacular. It was a little noisier than what I like but it did not dampen our lunch. Out server Kat was great. She even gave my sister a free dessert for her birthday. True Kitchen has something for everyone! I love it.

Our dining experience was top notch. The open fire cooking infused our dishes and every one of them was delicious. The highlight was the ribeye, cooked perfectly and was accompanied with bone marrow and sea salt to sprinkle over the meat. They also had a great playlist for a great vibe.
