A chain of full-service restaurants that prides itself on “honest food that tastes really good” is coming to the ground floor of a planned apartment building on Wisconsin Avenue.
True Food Kitchen, the Arizona-based healthy food concept that recently opened in Fairfax, will take up the ground floor restaurant space in the Solaire Bethesda — the 12-floor, 139-unit apartment at 7100 Wisconsin Ave.
The Washington Property Company, which is developing the project on the former gas station site of the Eastham’s Servicenter, made the announcement on Monday.
The restaurant featuresvegan, vegetarian and gluten free meals spanning a variety of food types. There’s a butternut squad pizza, edamame dumplings and turkey lasagna, to name a few options. There’s also plenty of kale and quinoa, plus seabuckthorn and acai berries and juices.
Construction on the project started earlier this year. True Food Kitchen will take up 6,400 square feet.
“We think Solaire Bethesda is the perfect location for True Food Kitchen,” Washington Property Company’s Daryl South said in a prepared news release. “Bethesda is home to the National Institutes of Health and is one of the nation’s most bicycle-friendly communities. We think this exciting restaurant concept will be a magnet for Bethesda’s discerning and health-conscious residents as well as visitors from all over the area.”
The project will include a two-level underground parking garage that will provide some parking for the restaurant.
