I’m new to Columbia and I can honestly say that out of all the bars/bistros I’ve been to so far, Tru Bistro has the BEST costumer service. I’ve experienced other places where the bartenders/other staff will literally ignore you if they don’t know you (something...Read More

Dine inDinner$20–30Atmosphere: 5Somewhat recommendI’m vegetarian so I did decide to order all sides (fried okra, Mac, and mashed potatoes) which were fire! You can order mostly anything and request it without the meat though (Alfredo, spaghetti, quesadillas, etc.). But if all else fails, definitely go for the drinks and vibe!
