What a fun little spot. The food was super healthy, but it did not sacrifice on taste. I sadly cleaned my plate! I only say sadly because I finished before the rest of our group so it was a little embarrassing. The sustainable salmon was absolutely delicious!

They were out of a lot of ingredients - no pesto but what made it worse that we didn’t find out until at least 15-20 minutes later. There were other dishes that were also not available. No blood orange margaritas either. The server was pleasant. My lasagna was warm and by the time I finish there were cold spots in my meal which threw me off a bit. I like the concept of fresh foods but sadly will not be returning.
True Food Kitchen - San Diego UTCResponded on 10 February 2025
We're sorry to hear about the lack of ingredients and the temperature of your lasagna, Pamela. Thank you for your feedback; we'll work on improving our availability and consistency. Please give us a call so we can make things right.

Overall good food but limited portions. A little pricey for the choices and quantity. Service was great and restaurant was nice. Because the restaurant focuses on healthy foods, the choices for my kids seemed limited and they weren’t as happy.

Thank you for your feedback, Richard. We're glad you enjoyed the service and atmosphere, and we apologize for any disappointment with portion sizes and kid-friendly options.

Nice casual dining. Definitely recommend the tenderloin and cauliflower dish. We got a side of Mac and cheese which was only a couple spoon full and practically no flavor for the price. Overall probably would try it again just not in near future.
