   Chicken with Spaghetti Squash was very good. The meatloaf was overcooked and 2 sides of the slice were burnt and crunchy. I didn’t eat that part. The meatloaf otherwise was moist and tasty, as were the mashed potatoes and they were served hot , but unfortunately the carrots were cold and I didn’t want to eat them. Service from Jackie was superb!

   I have always enjoyed True Foods in Newport. I ordered a Chinese Chicken Salad today. I was surprised when it came to see it so soggy and with a curry colored dressing. I was okay....but when I got home I looked up my Chinese Salad ingredients. Thinking it was me. Here is what was to be: Yes to chicken, avocado 4 slices on top, picked ginger No sesame seeds, watermelon radish, snap peas, toasted quinoa, roasted almonds, amd No definitely to cashew dressing I had not seen my friend for a year and did not want to make a huge fuss over the order, but thought I should be open to you about my experience. I not a complainer but would not chose a repeat performance for a place to meet friends. Very Very Disappointed !!! This is why the score :(

   A little too loud inside (music) so ate outside. Loved the Panang curry and ancient grains bowls; we've had them multiple times. However this time ww both selected shrimp and it wasn't very fresh tasting. Same thing the last time as well. We recommend the antibiotic chicken for both bowls and you won't be disappointed.

   Another nice evening! Naomi served us outstandingly well with Derek and Jake checking in on us as well. Alex too. Ancient Grains bowl and Teriyaki Bowl hit the spot.

    In comparison to my previous dining the service was significantly better, perhaps sitting outside patio may be the reason. The food was prepared well and not overcooked. Enjoyed celebrating my friend's birthday with a complimentary dessert. Thank you.
