WELCOME

Le Testimony Organic Bistro

Real food. Clean ingredients. Made with love in Redding, CA.

We’re James, Yumi, and Yisrael — a husband, wife, and son on a mission to nourish body, soul, and community through honest, organic food.

Every ingredient is chosen with intention. Every dish is prepared with care. No shortcuts, no seed oils, no artificial anything — just clean, nourishing food made fresh every single day.

We’re glad you’re here.

∙ Cold-pressed olive oil & unrefined coconut oil — always

∙ Expeller-pressed sesame oil in all house-made sauces

∙ Local, seasonal produce whenever possible

∙ Air fryer cooking for crisp, clean dishes without excess oil

We never use MSG, seed oils, artificial additives, or conventional dairy. Every ingredient is chosen for integrity, nutrition, and flavor.

🌿 WELLNESS BEYOND THE PLATE

Our commitment to clean living doesn’t stop at the table. We also offer dōTERRA pure, therapeutic-grade essential oils — the same quality and intention we bring to every ingredient in our kitchen.

OUR STORY

James discovered his love for cooking at age four. He trained under Chef Joe Vallone and earned Top Cook of the 1st Marine Division, preparing meals for thousands of Marines. He has cooked for legends like Randy Travis and Barnes & Noble co-founder Mr. Barnes.

Meeting Yumi transformed his approach to food. Her plant-based lifestyle and dedication to organic living inspired a new chapter — one where every ingredient tells a story and every dish is prepared with purpose.

Together, with Yumi’s expertise in IT, HR, and Accounting, they built Le Testimony from the ground up — rooted in food, faith, and family.

Their son Yisrael, raised on clean food from birth, is their greatest inspiration and the heart of this mission.

Every dish reflects what we believe: clean food heals, faith sustains, and family is everything.

This is our testimony.

— James & Yumi Giaudrone

GOOD TO KNOW

We’re a small, owner-operated kitchen and we want your visit to go smoothly:

∙ Ordering is self-serve via kiosk or online — no phone orders

∙ Walk-ins welcome — we don’t take reservations

∙ Simple, warm service — paper plates, no table service

∙ Phone is often unavailable during food prep — our website is always your best resource

A NOTE ON GLUTEN

Many of our menu items are naturally gluten-friendly. That said, our kitchen is a shared space and we cannot guarantee zero cross-contact. We don’t recommend dining with us if you have a severe gluten allergy. As of May 2025, we’ve discontinued dedicated gluten-free crepes due to sourcing limitations — thank you for your grace and understanding.

GIVING BACK

We believe that nourishing our community extends beyond our kitchen. A portion of every season goes to a single charitable organization aligned with our mission of faith, family, and wellness. Being owner-operated means we give consistently, meaningfully, and from the heart.
