Love this place! The chicken pesto Panini is my absolute go-to—it's so flavorful and satisfying. The customer service here is top-notch too. The owner is super friendly, always greets me by name, and makes me feel right at home. It's those personal touches that keep me coming back for more!

This is hands down, the BEST sandwich shop in the area. Owner is super nice. The photos actually look as advertised. This place is definitely a "hole in the wall" restaurant, and can be easy to miss. So I'm really happy I found it. And for those reviews giving 3 stars or less because they didn't get their food instantly. Just go somewhere else. If you want REAL food and quality that chain restaurants can't provide, this is the place for you. I hope this place stays in town forever. Quality like this is so hard to find these days. Anyone not giving this place 5 stars, doesn't know good food.

I've been a regular customer here for a few months now. In that time, I've probably tried seven or eight different paninis, wraps, and chicken and rice dishes. Everything has been excellent - fresh, quality ingredients, scratch cooking, perfect ingredient proportions, and an eclectic mixture of culinary influences, including Indian and Italian.The prices are very reasonable for the excellent quality and generous quantity of the dishes. The service is great, as well - the owner, Sam, is very warm and friendly.As other reviewers have mentioned, ordering online is definitely recommended - the establishment is small, and there isn't much room to wait. My online orders have always been ready in 10-15 minutes.I really can't recommend TruFoods Kitchen highly enough. I've taken multiple friends here (to universally glowing reviews) and I will continue frequenting it myself. Give it a try!

Sonia panini with aloo paneer is the best sandwich I ever had.I like most of his items but Sonia + aloo paneer is exceptional. I wish I could get something like this here in Pittsburgh. I wish Sam opens another branch here in Pittsburgh.

This place is a hidden gem, it is my FAVORITE food spot on Main St., everything I've tried has been absolutely mouth-watering. You can really tell that each sandwich is crafted with love and care. My favorite so far has been the Sonia Panini - such a delicious marriage of unique flavors! The marinated chicken is so juicy and flavorful, the veg is fresh and balances out the flavors, generous amount of melted cheese, and the zippy cilantro chutney adds the perfect kick to even it all out. There are lenty of vegetarian options on the menu as well. The atmosphere inside is warm and welcoming, as is the owner :) 10/10 definitely try this place out, you'll be coming back for more!!Vegetarian options: delicious and flavorful veg options!

Last week, I visited and picked up the Spicy-Halal chicken & rice because it was so delicious that I wanted to try other dishes too! I placed my order and they prepared it for me in less than 10 minutes.The Tru- food was absolutely amazing, and the portions kitchen was generous. I enjoyed the meal by myself and felt so happy! ^^ Today, while grocery shopping, my husband mentioned that he wanted to have the Chicken Tikka wrap again, which he had last week. So, I placed an additional order, and I decided to try the Panini that Chef's recommended to me last time. I had the Sonia panini today... It was out of this world! The taste was incredible. Even though my husband is picky and has high standards when it comes to food, he said it was the best panini he has ever had, full of rich flavors. Thank you so much. You're so kind and thoughtful. It's really touching! I'm already looking forward to trying another flavor of panini next time. ❤️ Thank you so much! ^^"I visited last week and it was so delicious that I wanted to try other dishes, so I went by myself during the week and picked up Spicy-Halal chicken & rice! It was delivered within 10 minutes of ordering. It was so nice and delicious that I happily ate the large portion of food by myself! ^^ And today, on the way back from grocery shopping, my husband said he wanted to eat the Chicken Tikka wrap he ate last week again, so I ordered more - and I ordered the same as the owner said last time. recommended toI tried Panini^^I had the Sonia panini you recommended today...it tasted out of this world!I shared it with my husband, who has very picky tastes and has high standards, and he said it was the best panini he's ever had. It was rich in flavor...toothank you You are so kind and considerate.Impressive!!I'm already looking forward to what flavor of panini I'll try next time❤️Thank you^^

A few days ago, I found out that it was a takeout restaurant that couldn't dine in, so I returned with disappointment.Soon I thought about it so much that I ordered it on the website and picked it up over the weekend. It's absolutely delicious, beyond your imagination.My husband, who lived in New York, also said that this place is really good at halal food.I plan to try this menu again. The portions are generous and the price is very reasonable. I will be a regular!!?

I have been going to Tru Foods in Watertown for a few years now. It is one of the few go to sandwich-lunch eateries in the area. The quality & taste of the food is awesome—the menu has a boatload of mouth-watering options. Sam the owner is very personable & operates an extremely well run business. If you haven’t visited yet—you’re missing out.Support a local Watertown business truly deserving of your patronage!

Sonia sandwich is one of the best sandwiches I've had. I have had a couple of their other sandwiches, and they have all been very good. Can't wait to go back!

Pro tip: you absolutely must try Tru Foods Kitchen. We've lived in Watertown for a while, but went for lunch for the first time today and it blew us away. I had the Halal chicken and rice. The sauces and seasoning flavors were incredible! I love that it comes with a generous side salad too. My boyfriend got the Sonia Panini, and after his first bite he put it down and just says "wow". Don't make the same mistake we made, which is waiting too long to try this place!
