Waterside Shops
True Food Kitchen is one of those restaurants that manages to be genuinely good for you without making you feel like you’re missing out. The concept was developed in partnership with wellness expert Dr. Andrew Weil, and the entire menu is built around anti-inflammatory, nutrient-rich ingredients — but the food is creative and flavorful enough that even people who don’t think twice about what they eat tend to enjoy it.
The Menu
The menu rotates seasonally, which means what’s on your plate is always at its freshest. Expect things like grain bowls, creative salads, wood-fired pizzas with unexpected toppings, burgers, and hearty entrees — plus a strong selection of gluten-free, vegan, and vegetarian options across every category. Popular dishes include the Inside-Out Quinoa Burger, the Butternut Squash Pizza, and the Ancient Grains Bowl. For drinks, the bar does seasonal cocktails made with fresh-pressed juices and organic spirits, alongside refreshers, teas, and non-alcoholic options.
The Space
The restaurant has a warm, natural feel — light wood tones, live plants, an open kitchen, and a covered patio for when the Florida weather cooperates. It works equally well for a casual lunch, a business meal, or a relaxed dinner.
Good to Know
Reservations are recommended, especially during season. It’s a popular spot with both locals and visitors, and for good reason — it fills up.
