True Food Kitchen

-------------------------------------------

With a great concept and strong opening, True food has welcomed all the eaters in the Houston area. True food is the new healthy eatery by Dr. Andrew Weil which opened a few weeks ago in the Galleria area. As soon as we walking in during the lunch time, we could felt the fresh and casual vibe of this place. 

The brightness in the restaurant, its open kitchen which can be seen from the main dining room and to be able to see what the chef and the cooks are doing with the fresh ingredients give you a pleasant feeling of cleanliness.   

Customer service was amazing, our waiter was very knowledgeable about the menu and drinks. He recommended us the most popular dishes and natural juices which were totally worthy. 

We appreciated how attentive, and cordial our waiter and the rest of the staff were during our lunch, but the waiter's amiability was a little bit too much. To the point that at the end it was kind of annoying. Sometimes, being too much over the customers is not pleasant. 

If by any chance you are in the Galleria area looking for a casual and healthy dish to fulfill hungry tummy, we recommend you to stop by True Food to try any of the items from their wide healthy selections, and do not forget about their natural juices.

Watermelon Lemonade

and 

Cucumber Refresher

-------------------------------------------

These natural drinks were super fresh. We just wanted to try the juices because they called our attention, so ordering 1 juice per person was enough for our lunch. You cannot dine in True Food without having one of their amazing juices.

Caramelized Onion Tart

smoked garlic, black fig & gorgonzola

-------------------------------------------

Perfect size to be sharable for a group of 3. The salty taste from the gorgonzola and the sweetness from the black fig made a great combination. The formidable combination of the gorgonzola and the figs overshadow the caramelized onions which was not a problem for us. The only problem was that this appetizer was a little bit oily for us.

Red Chili Shrimp

sesame noodle, gai lan, spinach & shiitake mushroom

-------------------------------------------

If you are not into hot dishes, we recommend you to go for another healthy option. Otherwise, shrimps, vegetables and noodles with a delicate spicy touch is the correct answer of why the Red Chili Shrimp is one of the most popular dishes at True Food.

Turkey Lasagna 

spinach, ricotta & organic tomato

-------------------------------------------

This dish was perfect. It would probably look a little small when it was brought to the table, but it  is not at all. It was tasty and cooked perfectly. However, the lasagna had too much extra sauce. If they put less sauce in it, they would hit the nail on the head. However, on our next visit, we could reorder the Turkey Lasagna easily.
