   True Food Kitchen used to be one of our favorite places to go and have health and delicious meals. In the past couple of years things changed for the worse, to be honest. Food doesn’t taste good, even the same menu items I’ve been ordering for many years, are no longer made with care, it seems. It’s in a great location and I do like their menu choices but it’ll be a while before we come back.

   If you want healthy, delicious food this is the place. The service was a bit glitchy. There was a big timing difference between when I received my food and when my husband got his and there was no one to ask about it for quite a long time. Mine came right away. But then his came maybe 10 minutes later. ?? They turn tables really fast, which if you're in a hurry is great. But if you're trying to enjoy a nice outing, it made us feel sort of rushed. I wouldn't definitely go back. I appreciate the wide array of vegetarian options which are often hard to find.

   On Saturday night the noise level was almost unbearable. The inside seating area has absolutely no noise absorbing surfaces and most of the guests were forced to almost shout to others at their table. I will probably not return if something is not done to reduce the noise level. No amount of good food will be enough to overcome the high noise level.

   We apologize for the discomfort caused by the noise level during your visit, Arthur. Thank you for your feedback, and we'll look into ways to improve the acoustics in our seating area.

   This is an OK place for healthier versions of fast food. However, the service we experienced was poor. At our table, which was only a party of 4, everyone’s food arrived at different times. Moreover, several menu items were out of stock. The same issue occurred last time I ate here. Sorry. Trying to like it. But it disappoints every time.

   I apologize for the inconsistent service and unavailable menu items during your visit, Colin. We appreciate your feedback and will work on improving these aspects to enhance your experience in the future.

    Everything was great: service and food. It was a little noisy, but not especially noisy considering it's one large open room. I'd definitely go back again.
