Good variety of food and good attention to allergens. Clear menu markings. They know what celiac is. Just a little pricy

Now they have gluten free chicken tenders!!! Flavorful and crispy but the breading does slide off easily. Exciting new development at least

I eat here regularly and have never had an issue. Menu is clearly marked and there are many GF options. The staff takes precautions in the kitchen and is serious about allergen protocols.

I found a piece of wheat dumpling in my Korean glass noodle bowl (vegan, GF). The kitchen is not as safe as would be expected, even though the staff seem knowledgeable. Will not be dining with them again.

Review
Ordered a gluten free sandwich and a regular sandwich in the same order. Specified that a diner has celiac. When my daughter arrived they couldn’t tell her which was gluten free and wouldn’t redo the order. Won’t go there again - bummer because we traveled a distance based on the reviews on here. Not worth the risk.

Lots of gluten free options in the regular menu, even several gluten free desserts with coconut milk ice cream. Would recommend for celiacs and would definitely eat here again.

Review
Staff immediately knew what to do when I told them I have celiac. Not only did he confirm my choice was gluten free, but he explained he would alert the kitchen staff. My food was brought out first before the gluten filled plates :). I always loved this place before I was diagnosed and was very happy to see it’s celiac friendly

Review
Excellent options for GF! The menu is clearly marked and that was fantastic. Lots of local food and unique dishes. They even grow their own herbs outside! My mom had the lasagna bolognese, I had the fish tacos. Both gluten free and both delicious!
Review
I was so excited to try this out, reading the other location reviews. I think I must’ve been cross contaminated here, unfortunately. I had intense symptoms (celiac) the next morning. I had gluten free pita, kale guacamole and the Korean noodle bowl. I would try again to see if they had their act together.

Been here many times love the food. It can be a bit pricey but the gluten free options are worth it. They have gluten free options on the menu and the manager will personally hand to you so you know it's gluten free. Lovely staff and good gluten free options.

Review
This location of True Food Kitchen is located in the Westfield Mall in Century City. It's a good location for a lunch or dinner, as they have clearly marked Gf choices on the menu. Their GF options include appetizers such as potatoes anfld guacamole, and tuna in lettuce wraps. They have a range of GF entrees, such as grilled salmon, seared tuna, and spaghetti squash.
The food is well made and freshly prepared with high quality ingredients. This is pricier than a lot of places, but similar to many options in Century City. Their menu features a GF pasta and desserts, but I didn't try them.
Overall their staff seemed pretty knowledgeable so risk of contamination is less than average.
