Overall, the atmosphere is fairly nice with very kind and friendly wait staff. True Food Kitchen has a well rounded menu with accommodates for vegetarian, gluten free, and vegan with clearly labled dishes for such. Additionally, the flavor profile is fairly diverse so if you are vegan like me, you will not be restricted to a single option and have a few choices to make.

I cannot say enough good things about Ember. We did the Chefs Experience dinner during our girls trip and I would recommend dining this way for others. Tina was our server and she was absolutely phenomenal. Knowledgeable and passionate about her work. Every person behind the counter was friendly and they worked together very well as a team. The food was flawless, I was left speechless which does not happen often. Everything just melted in your mouth and the flavor profiles were on point. They easily catered to my gluten free restrictions. If I lived in Austin, I’d be a regular. Thank you for an incredible experience

Everything was fantastic! Our server Aaron was super attentive and patient with us as we made our wine and meal selections. He also made sure to be mindful of my gluten allergy. The watermelon feta appetizer was refreshing with a mild chile kick which was an unexpected and delightful surprise. The grouper entree and lamb skewer were perfectly seasoned with delicious, nuanced flavors. Can’t recommend this restaurant enough!

Excellent! I am gluten free and ate the Aloha Burger on a GF bun. It was the best burger I’ve had in recent memory. The mock tails are yum too! If you are GF the staff is knowledgeable about the food, especially the tall bearded server (who went to culinary school - wish I remembered his name). Best music playlist and comfortable seating. I wanted to go back the next day!

Really enjoyed our experience here! Booked a reservation online and were seated on time. Atmosphere was lively and the restaurant is gorgeous. Our server was extremely kind and helpful, I have a gluten allergy and the menu has GF markers (love!!) but she was also very knowledgeable on gluten free options. I had the salmon, the components of the meal seem simple but it was done perfectly and I loved every bite. We also had amazing espresso martinis as a night cap and watched the sunset through the buildings. Dinner was pricey and drinks $20 each but worth it as a fun date night. Would highly recommend!

Do not pass up a visit to this place!! We had the most delicious crepes brunch here. My (gluten free) boyfriend had the gf turkey pesto savory crepe, and I the croque madame crepe and they were both perfection!! Tons of flavor and high quality, fresh ingredients. I also had their delicious peach tea and my boyfriend enjoyed his americano. This is definitely a gem of Austin (the kind chef, original art deco lobby, outdoor seating availability and the fact they also serve cocktails was a bonus!).

Whitefish tacos with grilled zucchini and street corn was excellent. Quesadillas filled with big chunks of Chicken. Queso deluxe was heavenly (much like Torchys).
