True Food Kitchen - Fairfax

True food in Fairfax is a pretty cool restaurant, food is above average in my opinion, servers could use a bit more thorough training to find out things like where the fish is from. I had the Seabass and found it to be a bit bland for my taste but everyone else on the table had something different and dishes looked pretty incredible.

And my guest was a first timer who will be taking his family to the True Food closer to their home in Arlington!

Excellent food but service a little lacking - not deliberate; more along the lines of being inattentive. But I'd certainly go again - and hope for better luck in finding an excellent server.

This place is so loud and servers seat 2 people at tables for 4 and so on while crowds wait to be seated. The crudités is the best thing on the menu.

Food is always great but I often find the service a little too slow....

Everything was great, loved the new menu items - had a winter immunity - and our waiter Nastasya was spectacular. Thank you!

We always enjoy our meal when we visit this restaurant. Ancient grain bowl is my favorite!

Great food - only complaint is that it’s a little pricey for the amount of food you receive. Drinks are very pricey

Love TF - but the last several times we have been there the noise and tables we have been seated at along with the offensive lighting (spotlights coming from the ceiling shining on you like you are being interrogated) have ruined the whole night. Maybe adjusting the lights and re-thinking some of the cramped seating and tables placed in the middle of the isles would be a step in the right direction....hate having to yell at my date across the table with the same going on on either side of us.

Went to True Food Kitchen for lunch with a friend. We are both manifestly male. We noticed that 95% of the clientele for lunch on a Friday were pairs, triples, quads of women. No big deal but I have not been in a virtually all female environment since I can remember. Generally the service was great, the food was almost all great ( I had a small issue with the details of a Thai Panag Curry but that's probably me not them). The appetizers, cappuccino , desert were all first class. If you are in the economic class that doesn't blink at $76 lunch for 2, want good variety, vegan, Thai inspired, or just some great burgers and excellent service, I enthusiastically recommend it.

The service was wonderful!
Excellent service.
Wonderful food.
Great atmosphere!
We were seated quickly and the server was perfect!!!
Thank-you so much.

Organic foods, perfect portions to finish at the restaurant and not feeling stuff. Great service, great ambiance, super fast. Will be back!

First time and everything was fantastic. Busy for a Monday night but it was holiday time

This is my favorite restaurant but I have now had multiple incidents with very poor service. My boyfriend had an early dinner with minimal customers in the restaurants. Even placing our order took far too much time as some of the servers seem to be more interested in socializing than doing their job. I have moved out of state and whenever I’m home, I go to this restaurant-very disappointed.

True Foods is my favorite out-to-lunch place in this area. It deliciously accommodates the special needs of all of my friends--Vegan, Gluten Free, and limited mobility.

Loved all of the veggie options for dinner meals! Great food and drinks! Can't wait to go back!

Everything was amazing, I marked “noise” pretty high but it was a Saturday night and the place was packed, so, to be expected. Everything was yummy (and super fast!!!), and our waiter, Daniel, was beyond fabulous! Very grateful, the best evening!

Really enjoyed the first meal we have had at True Foods

We had a large party and the food and service was fantastic! My company is still talking about it this morning!!!

Great menu with a lot of veggie-forward, balanced options! Most of what I’ve ordered has come out pretty good- love the Korean Noodle Bowl, but the polenta was underwhelming. Service can be hit or miss, but this place is generally a good experience although a little pricey.

Even on a cold rainy night, place was packed. And as always, the tasty food stands out -- you won't find most of these dishes anywhere else. We're looking forward to the opening of the Reston True Food.

Love it ! All food are so good

Food was great but we finished our dinner without glasses of water, server never brought it. I made a note it was birthday celebration, I guess our server wasn’t informed and they didn’t even wish a happy birthday to birthday celebrant.

Food is very good but menu could use a refresher more often with more diverse selections.

Had a good time. Ordered Espresso and ice cream and made a float ;P

Went out to eat on a date night with my husband. Later it was very slow. We had to ask a second time for my husband’s drink from the bar. I have some dietary restrictions, and asked for grilled shrimp on my salad. Not only did grilled shrimp arrive on my salad but also random pieces of grilled chicken. Would have been a big problem if I didn’t like chicken or I was allergic.On one hand it was nice that we weren’t rushed on a busy Saturday night, but at the same time the waiter wasn’t very responsive to our needs either.

Lovely brunch. Excellent service. Delicious food. Relaxing and fun!

I love this place! Amazing, very friendly service and good food! High recommendation!

The restaurant was fine, the server was very friendly, the food was good but the evening was soured because even though we made a reservation we had to wait 30 minutes to be seated. We were told that our table had been given away to a different party who did not have a reservation. What is the point of making a reservation if it won’t be respected? Members of our party had hired a babysitter and had to cut short the night given the 30 minute delay. No apologies were made nor any efforts at compensating us...it was very disappointing.

Brought some new peeps to this place and as always, they LOVE IT! Such a great concept with some tasty options!

Great food as always!

The place was rather noisy, at times I had a difficult time hearing my friend who was sitting across from me. I was disappointed that the server came with one check. She did not ask beforehand if we wanted separate checks. The food, however, was very good, just a little pricey for the amount.

I love True Foods but I do wish the set-up were a bit different at times - I made reservations for two and they sat us in the middle of the corridor / walkway that leads to the bathroom/kitchen. We constantly had people brushing past us on one side and were practically on top of the table of people that sat to the other side of us. Also, the food is always great but be prepared to spend a pretty penny here - our meal was two entrees and one very small appetizer and a modest bottle of wine - total was around ~$120.

Excellent service and food!

Very energetic atmosphere. The food is 100% anti-inflammatory, which looked like health food. What we ordered was delicious but much of the menu was a bit intimidating. It was a crowded Friday night. Not recommended for a quiet date night. Fun for friends.

Food is spectacular, as always, as are the servers. A little overpriced, and a little noisy. But neither of those issues keeps me from going repeatedly.

Delicious, fresh food. a good choice of non-alcoholic drinks, and just-right service. Yes, I'll be going again.

Love this place! Food is amazing and they are able to easily customize meals for dietary restrictions.

Our waitress made our lunch very special with her pleasant smile and exceptional customers service. One of the female managers visited our table to make sure we were please with our food.
