    It was Thanksgiving Day at 7:15pm and we were not sure what to expect. It was an amazing experience. The restaurant was super busy but you can see the staff taking care of business. The valet wished us a happy Thanksgiving, we arrived and checked in. I was a little worried, but within 5 min my cell phone rang and we were seated. The host that sat was very friendly. Our waiter Abel was the absolute best! He and the wait staff made our night extra special. The water and drinks were replaced quickly and the food was amazing!!! My husband was asking if we can book now for 2025. Thank you!!

    We love the food and enjoyed great meals today at lunch. I got there early so I could ask the hostess to please note my grand daughter was home from college and it is her birthday. She said she would inform our server….. I knew my grand daughter would choose a chocolate dessert, which she did + her Mum and I also enjoyed our desserts. GREAT disappointment when 3 desserts arrived NO candle !!!!! Of course I didn’t make a fuss , however I wanted to !! The special moment was over and I left your restaurant feeling let down. We all love coming to True Food Kitchen in Walnut Crerk CA because we love the food and I knew when I told our grand daughter that’s where we would be having lunch….. she was, as expected …. excited. Please get through to your hostesses that some requests mean a great deal and they need to follow through !!! Antoinette ☹️
