Love this gem. The food is so delicious and the smoothies are out of this world. Everything is organic, vegan, and gluten free. This place is a must try even if you don’t have dietary restrictions. This is because the food is fantastic!
I recently visited Truefood, and I have to say, it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. The ambiance is warm and inviting, perfect for a casual meal or a special occasion. The staff were friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu.
The food was absolutely delicious! Every dish we ordered was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. I was particularly impressed by the variety of options, catering to both health-conscious eaters and those with specific dietary needs. Whether you're vegan, gluten-free, or just looking for something light and tasty, Truefood has something for everyone.
Overall, Truefood is a top-notch restaurant that I highly recommend. If you're looking for healthy, delicious, and beautifully prepared food, this is the place to be! I'll definitely be back soon
I am so excited to have found this place! My youngest daughter is diagnosed Celiac Disease and so cannot have even the slightest bit of cross contamination in her food or she'll be sick.
On Christmas Eve I called to see if they had a dedicated gluten free fryer (my girl loves fries!). I was told no but the man, Jason, who turned out to be the GM, encouraged us to go anyway because they have such an extensive gluten free menu.
I'm glad we gave it a try! When I arrived Jason told me he decided to make a gluten free dedicated fryer in his kitchen and had already started it up to be ready for my daughter's fries!
On top of that, the staff were all lovely and the food was *amazing*!
Jason, if you see this, thank you again! It's rough for a 13 yr old with Celiac Disease; your kindness made a difference!
We will be back!!
The sickest out celiac family has ever been. Has come from this place. We got the chicken enchiladas and the gf mac and cheese. I even confirmed the noodles were boiled in their own water, clearly they were not when we discovered another noodle from another dish with the food.
This restaurant had been on my list for a while, and I’m glad I finally visited with friends. It’s always packed when I walk by, and now I see why. The hostess and staff, including Partner, who was kind, funny, and brought our wine, made us feel welcome. Our server, Crystal, provided excellent service with helpful recommendations that suited my picky eating. The menu included a few great options for my gluten-free and vegan friends, and the food met all our expectations. The desserts, especially the crème brûlée and pistachio brownie, were outstanding. I look forward to returning to try more seasonal offerings. Thank you, Silver, for a wonderful dining experience!
The restaurant location is a little obscure and a bit hard to find. Once we arrived, we were surprised by the diner like decor of the restaurant and how empty it was.
Super super impressed with their ability to accommodate gluten-free options! We ordered appetizers and entrees - overall, the food was delicious, very well prepared, & good size portions. The kitchen turned around the food orders quickly.
The service was definitely lacking. Our server was a bit nutty, had an attitude, and had to be reminded of segments of our order. Don't appreciate feeling like we are inconveniencing him for having a 7pm reservation. If that was later than he wanted to stay, then they should stop taking reservations beyond 6 pm. I don't think our expectations were high for service - just looking for our server to be nice. Eye rolling when taking our order is not professional nor respectful.
While the food was great, I'm not sure we will return...too many good restaurants in the area that care about customer service.
I have been here three times because they have gluten free brownies and now I am pretty sure this is the most overhyped bakery in this area.
1. the staff are totally untrained in even basic human courtesy. They act as if they are giving free food to the customers.
2. The brownie size, appearance and taste are inconsistent. Once we were given a broken brownie that was half the thickness of a decent one on the shelf. 5$ for that is beyond ridiculous.
Overall, would never recommend this place and actively discourage others from going there.
My wife and I were in town on a short business trip and decided to try Gregorio’s. The entire experience was stellar, my wife is on a gluten free diet and their menu has dozens of options. The food was fantastic, big shout out to Melo for his hospitality as well as giving me the tiramisu and cheesecake since I couldn’t make up my mind. Highly recommend!
I love OPH. They have delicious gluten-free pancakes and waffles and tons of great options for normal eaters. I used to adore their crepes when I was a normal eater.
Has an entire gluten free menu. Finally had sushi after many years with celiac. Food was delicious and staff was super friendly and knowledgeable about menu and gluten. Will definitely be going back!!
I tried their birria quesadillas made with corn shells. The meat had great flavor. The birria broth had a touch too much cinnamon for my taste, but it was still good. They were very accommodating with my gluten allergy. The waiter was able to tell me what was gluten-free and what I should avoid. I really appreciate it when the wait staff can answer my questions regarding allergens.
It was a busy night. All the tables inside were full. The hostess opened the enclosed patio (with heaters), so I didn't have to wait, which I was totally fine with. Inside was very loud with people talking over the music and other people, so I was grateful to sit on the patio and enjoy my dinner.
We had a great time here! Might seem like a petty thing.... I loved that the person who answered the phone, I think his name was Ricky, spoke English well and was very happy and professional on the phone!
The restaurant was clean, knowledgeable about the menu, friendly staff, wearing full mask - not the “chin” mask. I could see the kitchen staff was masked as well. Food came out fairly quick. Our table had the sesame cauliflower and chicken kabab for appetizer. Our friend is gluten free and there were many options. We left full and happy! Highly recommend. Loved the decor and the windows that open up to the street!
Wonderful Italian vibe with delicious pizza. I had excellent gluten free. My son had regular gluten full pizza. The arugula salad was good bt the dressing was a little tangy for my taste.
We love coming back to this restaurant year after year for their delicious food and exceptional service! The staff are so friendly and helpful. Everything is made fresh and delicious and there are some unique dishes to pick form. There is gluten free pasta available for the pasta dishes. Really great quality food. Portion sizes were very reasonable for a dish, nothing too crazy. Definitely get a dessert! The chicken piccata was very well made, the risotto was a Greta vegetarian dish, and the pasta are all incredible.
This is my go-to mexican restaurant. Their food is always fresh and delicious. I have a gluten allergy, and they do their best to accommodate. I normally order the burrito dorados with corn shells instead of flour tortillas. I tend to go in the off hours either between lunch and dinner or after dinner rush so it's normally quiet. They also have outside seating, which is a nice option.
Six of us shared a most delightful evening at CHERcher . Wonderful menu, complete with vegan, vegetarian and gluten free options. Great service, great food and fun!
It was a great find! I have a gluten allergy, so I'm always cautious of where and what I order. I'm glad I took a chance on Caddies. The staff is always super friendly. I order the bone-in wings, and they are the best I've had since moving here. I've tried the buffalo wings, and they were not too spicy, which I enjoyed. I've also tried their bbq wings, which are my favorite. I definitely will be back.
They took my gluten allergy super seriously, noted it, changed their gloves without needing me to ask and even refunded the elote I ordered and let me me know there was cross contamination before they gave it to me. Also the food is delicious.
I went here on a Saturday right before rush hour seemed to hit. It was not crowded until much later into our meal. I found the seats comfortable and staff friendly and attentive.
Beer: This has a much greater range of options that anyplace that isn't a beer specialty restaurant. They also have seasonal and specials (being October there was some pumpkin flavors, gross). They serve in several sizes the largest being 25oz. Which lasted me an entire meal and for only $7.50 I felt I got my moneys worth out of it compared to a cocktail. I recommend knowing what you like or asking for a sample tasting before getting a giant beer. For price and variety of flavors and sizes this was excellent.
Food: You'll find the classic American style of options but also some extra options you wouldn't expect. I ended up with a Mac N cheese with chicken and bacon mixed in. This was excellent, and they have a separate gluten free menu. However it should be noted that the menu is "gluten sensitive" and may not be for people with Celiac's. I would inform the server of your allergy to double check they prepare it safely.
Serve went very well and I know not everyone will have the same experience. But hopefully the resturant will make amends for your issue. For the few times I've been I found this to be a pleasant experience and a price point to match.
Food is back up to the level it used to be at this location. Had the steak fajitas, and they came out of the kitchen as ordered. A member of our party was able to modify a bowl so that it was gluten and dairy free - a plus.
I recently visited Tatte Bakery in Bethesda Kenwood, and it was exactly the pick-me-up I needed! This spacious bakery provides a warm and inviting atmosphere, perfect for meeting friends, colleagues, or spending quality time with family. The selection of pastries was impressive including gluten-free options, which were a delightful surprise. My latte was rich and creamy, and pairing it with the pear tart was a match made in heaven. I highly recommend trying the cherry pistachio tart and the apple pie as well—they're simply delicious! The staff were friendly, attentive, and brought our order right to our table, making us feel well taken care of. The only hiccup was with the clearing staff, who were a bit clumsy, but it didn’t take away from the overall wonderful experience. I can't wait to return!
One customer was entering and said that the pizza was great and their prices were 👍. We decided to give it a try. Definitely, coming back. They also serve gluten free pizza.
The man at the bar is very friendly. They have an allergen menu for Dairy, Gluten, Vegan, and some other popular concerns, which was produced as soon as I mentioned food restrictions.
Food: I'll do my best to post the pictures (I'm not seeing an option at the moment). I got the brisket, the ribs, and the onion rings. The portions aren't large by BBQ standards, but they are filling. The brisket was flavorful and tender. The ribs were small. The sauces are the same except one has a hint of spice. Both ketchup based. Nothing impressive, so it's good that the brisket has enough flavor that the sauce isn't really necessary. The onion rings were good, too. Crispy outside and flavorful inside.
I did finish all of the meats I bought, which is a sign of good food. If I was more of a local, I imagine I'd be back for the friendship as much as the food, as the locals are quite friendly and upbeat, but are also willing to let you do you.
Beverages: Most drinks here are by the bottle or by the can. The range is good, going from popular drinks like Water, Dr. Pepper, Coke, Mountain Dew, etc., to craft beers. Plus there's a bar.
Atmosphere: This place is reminiscent of a local dive bar in a good way. When I came in, everyone coming in after me, knew each other. Due to its location in downtown Bethesda, the property is rather small, but it still has 4 tables (technically 7 sections that seat 2 people each, with bar stool or chair seating options) and at least 5 seats at the bar. There's a hand-wash station conveniently located at the opposite end of the bar. During my visit, the music playing was Queen, Matchbox 20, Elton John, Billy Joel, Simon & Garfunkel, etc.
Price: The price is about the same as the prices for 2 Fifty (2-Fifty is the highest quality BBQ in the area). I can see how this price might affect people's ratings. A 2-meat platter with mandatory side, plus a can of Dr. Pepper at Smoke BBQ ran me $27.
