Reviews for True Food Kitchen in Fairfax, VA
Everything on the menu was delicious and healthy. Some of my family is vegan so it was nice to go to a place where they can eat... as well. We went for brunch and their mimosas were so good. They had blueberry lime and watermelon mimosas! Highly recommend ifyou’re looking for tasty and healthy. Read more
This restaurant caters to a niche market, think slightly overpriced health foods. All of the dishes and drinks are vibrant in... color and appealing to the eye. Entrees in my opinion are slightly high with $20 to $30 price ranges. But most other items onthe menu are fairly priced. Drinks are also a little high at $14 for a cocktail. I came here with friends during brunch hours,so there were drunk specials for $5 or champagne/juice craft for $20. Regular drinks consist of tea and lemonades. Thewatermelon lemonade was just okay, not very sweet or with much flavor. They do not sell soda products here. Their brunch menusis very limited with only 3-4 food options. I opted for the margarita pizza at $14.50. It was really good but slightly smallerthan expected, the mozzarella and thin crust was delicious. Other items ordered were the grain bowl, turkey burger, veggieburger, and chicken Parmesan. My friend said she would not order the chicken parm again, as it did not have traditional pasta orbreading, but was served with a great amount of greens. We ended the lunch with the flourless chocolate cake and ice cream, itwas probably the best item of the lunch. Service is a bit slow, took 15 minutes for a waiter to acknowledge the table when Iarrived and increased time for drinks to arrive. Overall, i just thought this restaurant was okay, if you want to try this placeout I would suggest getting a reservation as it gets pretty busy. Read more
What a lovely restaurant. Tasteful, bright, and open atmosphere. Everything we had was excellent - watermelon mojito, Food Earth... Kale Cobb with grass-fed steak, and a latte with oat milk. We really appreciated the feel good art throughout. Great vibe. Wewouldn’t set outside if it was so humid and hot. I highly recommend it. Read more
The food here is ok. It’s not bad or spectacular. I definitely think it’s too pricey. Probably because it’s located in the... Mosiac District. The restaurant it self is nice. The staff are very professional. The older gentleman with the beard that hostedus was very nice, professional and attentive. It’s not a place that I would recommend for family meal. More for a quick biteand a drink kinda place. Read more
I visited on Good Friday as a way to have a meal out that focused on lighter, healthier, and earthier offerings. As with many... Mosaic eateries this evening, the place was rather swamped with customers even as late as 8 PM. I ate at the bar and was glad Idid. Service came quickly and gave me ample time to review the menu after cleaning the area in front of me. I settled onordering a prickly pear refresher drink, the tuna tostada appetizer, the Tuscan kale salad with added chicken for protein, thesalmon entree, and the flourless chocolate cake. Bad news: the kitchen took 25 minutes to get my appetizer and initially broughtmy kale salad when that item was not even fired yet. Good news: the bar staff took charge, sent the salad back, expedited mytostada, and comped the cost without me even asking. More good news: the tostada tasted great, with the Chip being predictablycrispy, the flavor of the tuna came through the avocado and jalapeño, and the ponzu was so delightfully spicy that I could mosthave had a separate cup of just that sauce. The salad came just as I was finishing the tostada. I would have liked the kalesalad to be a little brighter perhaps with more lemon and the chicken to have the same grilled flavor but be juicer. Once againthe kitchen took another 25 minutes to produce my salmon, and this time the assistant manager brought my dish which was awelcome touch given the tough night the kitchen was having. My entree had another winning sauce with the pumpkin seed pestowhich had an almost Indian taste (I suggest putting the pesto next to the farro and quinoa and have the sauce and the graintogether). The vegetables were cooked properly, especially the charred onion. Most importantly the salmon was cooked to a propermedium rare as requested (the default temperature is medium). All in all three tasty savory dishes somewhat spoiled by theinconsistent times from the kitchen. The chocolate cake had a delicious and almost decadent chocolaty richness wi Read more
Staff were friendly and professional, ambiance was good. However, some dishes weren’t as expected and some were over priced! I... guess the best items were in the appetizer section and salads. Main courses were the disappointment especially the sea bass andvegi burger. Read more
The food is delicious and healthy. I ordered ancient grain bowl, and it looked nice and tasted good. The sunrise bowl in the... brunch menu has less portion, so if you plan to have larger portion, you should go with the bowl menu vs. brunch menu. Theflourless chocolate cake with ice cream was surprisingly delicious, and the ice cream balanced out the sweetness of thechocolate cake. The interior design is also pretty nice and provides a good vibe here. Overall, we enjoyed our meals here. Read more
What a great find. We loved this place. We had for an appetizer the charred cauliflower which was really good. Then we had the... chopped salad with salmon and the grass fed burger. Everything was delicious. The dessert was also good, vegan chocolate chipcookies and vainilla icecream. The service was great, thank you Samuel for all the attention and your good energy. Read more
