True Food Kitchen, a restaurant chain with 23 locations in 10 states, is poised to grow across the United States - with the help of none other than Oprah Winfrey.

The West Coast-based health-food chain announced Wednesday that Winfrey has committed to an equity investment in the company. She will also be joining the chain's board of directors and work with its leadership team on its national growth and marketing. 

"I love bringing people together over a good meal," Winfrey said in a press release about the investment. "When I first dined at True Food Kitchen, I was so impressed with the team's passion for healthy eating and, of course, the delicious food, that I knew I wanted to be a part of the company's future."

True Food Kitchen's focus is on healthy, sustainable, and locally sourced ingredients, and there are many vegan and vegetarian options.

True Food Kitchen CEO Christine Barone, who was previously an executive at Starbucks, said in a press release: "When Ms. Winfrey and I first sat down to discuss her potential investment, I was impressed by her genuine passion for the intention behind True Food. My hope is that her passion and investment will continue to develop our growing brand and allow even more guests to experience a better way of eating."
