"In Downtown Summerlin I visited the new True Food Kitchen, the first of two local expansions of the lifestyle brand; its seasonal menu is inspired by Dr. Andrew Weil’s anti-inflammatory food pyramid and it even had an early investment and endorsement from Oprah Winfrey. The bright, airy, open-plan interior and covered patio seat about 190 and offer seating at the bar, on stools at long, tall tables, or in green-hued booths tucked beneath planters of herbs and spices. Eco-friendly touches include light hardwood floors and dining chairs made from recycled soda bottles, while the chef-driven, scratch bar concept delivers a seasonal lineup of creative, crave-able dishes and handcrafted cocktails that emphasize wholesome, nutrient-dense ingredients and thoughtful preparations. A Monday–Friday social hour centers on $5 small plates, cocktails, beer, or wines by the glass, and the restaurant is positioned as a lively option for lunch, dinner, or weekend brunch." - Bradley Martin
