Very place to eat healthy. A lot of choice on their menu. Special attention by the manager that brings the GF meals to be sure that everything is fine.

Ate here twice. Good options. Wait staff was knowledgeable about CD. In fact one had CD herself that waited on us. Three GF dessert choices which is unusual. Food was fresh and innovative. Very much wellness oriented but with flavor. They were very flexible in making changes to accommodate. They took the CD diet seriously.

I’ve eaten here twice so far on my visit to New Orleans. Outstanding. I had the OG burger and loaded potatoes with the flourless chocolate cake + ice cream for dessert at one meal and the blanco pizza with hot honey and arugula at another. Both were outstanding. No issues. I’m a sensitive celiac.

This was great! The place is super clean, modern, and has a great atmosphere! I would say about 75% of the menu is or can be made gluten free. They took it very seriously. Delicious food and many options!

I had a great experience. Our server, Ash, provided clear details on how my food would be cooked. She was friendly and even provided us with some great places to visit. I had the blueberry pancakes! Delicious!

I was so well accommodated by this restaurant while on vacation in New Orleans that I ate here 4 times during my trip. Brunch was my favorite, and the lemon oregano salad dressing is amazing. The servers were amazing, and I felt welcomed!

PHENOMENAL! Our waiter was so sweet and attentive and made sure that my dish was completely gluten free. He even asked the kitchen about some ingredients for me. I got the Teriyaki Quinoa Bowl with Chicken, and it was absolutely delicious! We also got the flourless chocolate cake served with vanilla ice cream, and it was some of the best GF cake I’ve ever had. I’ve had no symptoms of being glutened and would definitely recommend this place!

The food here is always quite good. Taking one star off because they only serve oat milk lattes which doesn’t seem very paleo or gluten free friendly. But otherwise all gluten free items are clearly marked and many things can be made gluten free. Different kinds of food mean something for everyone also they give kids hot wheels which meant it was the only restaurant my kids want to eat at.

This was a great stop for a lot of gf options and safely prepared food.
The menu is clearly marked with what is Gf and what isn't. Staff was knowledgeable.
I had the blueberry pancakes, my husband had a pizza. All of it was delicious. It was also really well priced for being a more health conscious restaurant. Definitely recommend as a good and safe place for celiacs to eat.

Amazing food. Very delicious and full of taste. I had the TFK Original Chicken Sandwich on GF bread with sweet potato hash and a kale salad. Staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. They were aware of allergens and explained the precautions they take during the preparation process. I would absolutely eat here again.

Review
This is the 1st place we went to when we arrived. The vibe was a bit cafeteria like but alright for lunch.
They have several gluten-free options including gf buns for burgers and pizza.
We started with a latte which was tasty but could have been hotter. The “pizza” was just a flatbread with cheese and tomato sauce. Lukewarm and tasteless.
The burger was OK nothing special.
The service was fine.
Overall I’d say ‘meh’

This was a great find. They have a large restaurant space and plenty of gf options. I ordered the grass fed burger with sweet potato hash and had the sparkling prickly pear drink. Everything was flavorful and well seasoned. Will definitely come back here when I’m back in Nola. NB: at the time of this review, they seemed short staffed so service wasn’t super attentive. However, the waitress was pleasant when she interacted with us.

Yes, yes, yes!!! This restaurant is very celiac friendly! Everything there is made from scratch and they are extremely familiar with other dietary restrictions and food allergies. I ate so much to make up for the past two days of eating Kind Bars, because restaurants that advertise they have GF are not celiac friendly.

Review
Ordered the following:
Spaghetti squash- tested safe with NIMA
Lasagne- NOT SAFE
veggies/chicken/rice- tested safe with NIMA
Flourless chocolate cake- NOT SAFE
So about 50 percent of the advertised GF items were NOT GF.

In town for a conference and pleasantly surprised to find this place was a grubhub delivery option given that NOLA is notoriously not-great for GF. Ordered dinner and a few add’l things to keep in the hotel fridge for later. Everything was great. The GF pita came warm and was very good with the hummus. Would def go back

I went with another celiac for dinner and we both got teriyaki chicken and asked the server to make a note that we both have celiac. We both got super sick. Definitely glutened and very disappointed because this is supposed to be an allergy friendly place and that’s why we picked it for dinner :(

We ate lunch here and I was excited about the many GF options clearly marked on the menu! The food was delicious and our server was very knowledgeable. When our meals were brought out they made a point to remind me that my husband’s meal was not GF and unsafe in case I was going to try a bite. We had an excellent experience.

We loved the restaurant. My wife had the Korean Bowl; I had the Korean Steak, our daughter had the Chicken Parmesan. My wife has celiac disease; gluten is poison. The staff took exceptional care to ensure that there was no cross-contamination. They offered three GF deserts; we tried all three, and they were terrific! I'd highly recommend it. Great ambiance, wonderfully fresh ingredients, and tremendous service!!

This is a scratch made kitchen that can accommodate allergies. Menu is very well marked, servers are knowledgeable, allergy marked even on my bill so I know the kitchen saw it. Felt very safe and comfortable eating there. They even have GF pita for the hummus appetizer even though it’s not marked on the digital menu. Gluten free dessert available. I grabbed a gf/vegan squash pie to-go!

We stayed at a hotel not far from here and ate here 2x during our stay. Once at the restaurant, and once for takeout.
Decent size gf menu, including some kids meals! They can even make the kids pizza gf.
My celiac daughter wanted the kids chicken meal which came with soy sauce. I asked the waiter, and he said they make it gf in house. She had no issues with it.
Food was excellent and the service was great as well.

I had a great experience at True Food Kitchen. Their menu is clearly marked. Served marked down my allergies and my food was brought out first and allergies announced, which is always reassuring. I paired some sides and shrimp together and all the food was great!
