| - Definitely alot better than what I was expecting. This is one of the few places that I've eaten at, Phoenix or elsewhere, where the decor and set-up reflect the cuisine. For instance, you can see the food being prepared outside of the kitchen and it's all fresh (at least I think it is). It's fresh, it's honest, and it's got nothing to hide. They specialize in foods that are organic as well as several vegetarian friendly dishes (not too sure about vegan though). True Food Kitchen is about as healthy and tasty as food can get in the Valley. There are alot of negative stereotypes with health/vegetarian cuisine. In the back of the layman's mind, he thinks he's going to get horse food. I think that sometimes and I eat vegetarian on a regular basis. Well, be prepared for True Food to destroy those labels.
I ordered the garlic/mushroom/kale pizza and my friend got the chicken one. Both were delicious and tasted, oddly enough, very clean. I don't really know how else to describe it. Fresh equals a clean taste. Anyway, the food is to be experienced and it's well worth it. The portions aren't huge, but that's the point.
One thing I will so however is that you can tell that the people that are die-hards about this place are also from the area (PV/Biltmore). I kinda have a hard time telling if they actually enjoy the food or if they see it as being a very LA type of spot in Phoenix, thus sorta giving themselves points simply because it's trendy. What I'm trying to get to is that I really enjoyed my experience here I really do believe that there is something for everyone (vegetarian/carnivore) here. Just don't expect it to be Madonna's "Like A Virgin" in a culinary incarnation that the yuppies tell you. Go there with no expectations and you will have an awesome exprience.
