Los Alamitos, CA (March 10, 2026)<\/em> \u2013 Epson today announced Fielding\u2019s Wood Grill in The Woodlands, Texas is finding success in the kitchen with its TrueOrder kitchen display system (KDS). Part of Fielding\u2019s Culinary Group, the Wood Grill has a bustling kitchen, serving lunch and dinner seven days a week, plus brunch on the weekends. Fielding\u2019s Wood Grill has come to rely on the affordable, easy-to-install and robust KDS solution that has digitized their restaurant workflow from food prep to order fulfillment, bringing improved order accuracy and streamlined operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cTrueOrder KDS has transformed our kitchen operations,\u201d said Josh Richardson, assistant general manager, Fielding\u2019s Culinary Group. \u201cCook times are faster, communication is clearer and our team has a much better understanding of what the guest really wants. It\u2019s made an incredible difference in both speed and accuracy.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prior to leveraging TrueOrder KDS, Fielding\u2019s Wood Grill was working with an older KDS system that wasn\u2019t efficient or effective in managing kitchen operations. To find a solution that would better fit their needs, Fielding\u2019s worked with Lavu, a premier provider of mobile POS and payment processing solutions for bars and restaurants worldwide. Lavu has had success in integrating TrueOrder KDS at many locations and recommended it as a solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cFielding\u2019s was in a pickle; they were working with an older KDS solution that was no longer meeting their needs,\u201d said Caitlin Christenson, director of customer success, Lavu. \u201cWe were able to help them assess the most important features needed for kitchen operation and management and provide TrueOrder KDS \u2013 an excellent product that delivers easy configurations and customizations to match our ecosystem.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

TrueOrder KDS is an easy-to-use solution that digitizes kitchen operations to help enhance productivity, from food prep to order fulfillment. It was designed with seamless compatibility and versatility for easy integration into point-of-sale (POS) systems compatible with an Epson printer. Offering choices from kitchen, expediter and customer-facing stations, with views that can be configured to match existing workflows, TrueOrder KDS comes with an intuitive interface and a simple, browser-based configurator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEpson and Lavu worked closely together to create success for Fielding\u2019s Wood Grill,\u201d said Tessa Kohl, product manager, Epson America, Inc. \u201cWe are committed to developing technology that brings powerful tools to kitchens that improve communication, speed and accuracy so teams can focus on what matters most \u2013 serving great food. Seeing how TrueOrder KDS has helped Fielding\u2019s increase efficiency and better understand guest expectations underscores the value of smart, connected kitchen solutions.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Given the success it\u2019s had with TrueOrder KDS, Fielding\u2019s Culinary Group is now looking to expand the solution to its additional restaurants. \u201cTrueOrder KDS has been a game changer for us,\u201d said Richardson. \u201cWe\u2019re faster, more organized and more in tune with our guests than ever before. We\u2019re excited to expand TrueOrder KDS to other locations.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
