   The food is pretty good when they execute but often they fail to execute and have a lot of inconsistencies. Like I'm sure the food tastes pretty good in the test kitchen but not in real life

   When we ate on a Thursday evening, service was a little difficult. I had to ask the hostess to help with getting us a server to order

   You have got to try the gluten free Pepperoni Pizza and vegan cheese; and it was crispy and delicious! My husband really enjoyed the grass fed burger. It was perfectly cooked and has a distinctively robust natural beef flavor. The wait staff does an excellent job too!

   Took a 10 minutes before someone came to our table. But the waitress was very nice and helpful when she finally was able to see us. Perhaps short staffed? The bathrooms were horrendous. The worst I’ve seen for a public restaurant in Pasadena. Not kept up. The food was stellar it’s sad that it’s healthy food with bad restrooms. However, the staff was very helpful when seating us. Great host. Nice service. Perfect plated food and drinks. For the money spent, better off elsewhere for a better experience.

   The Spaghetti Squash Casserole is one my favorites. I had it this time with their pesto sauce as a substitute for their delicious tomato sauce for a fun change. It was so amazing that I ordered another one to take home; and my spouse ordered one to go too.The staff here are great and very accommodating as well. We love coming to True Food Kitchen frequently for our date night!!

   Service was slow, though she was busy. It was a while before our server took our drink order. A good 25% of the menu was not available the night we were there. Do not go on a Sunday. We were a party of 6. It took a while for the food to come out of the kitchen. When it did, only 3 of us got our food. About 10 minutes later, 2 more came out. The 3rd (the easiest one of the bunch) finally came out 5 min after that. The entire table should come out all at once. This is the kitchen’s fault, and management needs to correct this. Not the first time this has happened here, even when it’s just the two of us. Server did not check up on us and never asked if we needed more drinks. The food is delicious. Employees need to get their act together.
