Some of the food here is just so mid and without any effort. Its not worth it. Food came frozen which made it feel like I was eating something from the Walmart freezer isle (no need to come and defend your company).
I would like to start by saying the customer service for this business is terrible. They provide a “phone number” but it’s just a generic message that repeats 3 times and hangs up. Next, they depend on UPS for delivery. Do not be fooled about their website saying they don’t have holidays. They will not gray out dates, never post delays on the website, close their shop, and won’t warn you about a late delivery till the day before! Plus the message they send is automated when they’re closed!
They say their food comes with ice packs or dry ice. That’s false! They FREEZE your food (ruining the quality entirely) and put it in an insulated box. Cutting costs much? They do not care about your food quality at all. They list on your website that YOU can freeze it but they do not inform the customer directly that their food is frozen.
Now let’s talk about the food. It’s incredibly mid. Do not buy the pasta. The Alfredo and Rasta pasta was gross. The pasta itself was soggy because they froze it. The quesadillas were ok in flavor, but a soggy mess unless you air fry it (not in their reheating instructions). The beef lo mein? It was the saltiest, most over seasoned food I have ever tried. I refuse to believe their food is healthy after that. If you have high blood pressure (thank god I don’t) do not order!!! I couldn’t stomach to finish the Rasta pasta or the lo mein. I ate the chicken from the Rasta pasta, and gave up on finishing any part of the lo mein. I didn’t order the alfredo so I can’t speak to that entirely. Based on what my partner said the pasta was soggy like my Rasta pasta. The only thing decent was the Birria taco bowl. I give it a 6.5/10. So far we tried about half the items we ordered. I would never recommend this to anyone.
Also they shrink wrap their food and occasionally the plastic taste seeps into the meal.
From reading the other reviews I was so excited for these meals to get delivered. Unfortunately mine came frozen solid and I had to thaw it out on the counter. This resulted in soggy food that was really unappetizing. The website is a little misleading since it advertises as fresh. I totally understand it has to ship in a cold container but from prior reviews it seems they have changed their packaging which overall may have changed the quality of the food? Once something is frozen it never really tastes the same in my opinion. The food is shrink wrapped instead of the meal containers (like in the review photos) and put in dry ice while being shipped. I really wanted to like it because they have such great food choices but so far food is not great. Just putting this out there to warn anyone with similar expectations as me to keep that in mind.
Let me start off by saying we love how organized everything is from the ordering to the delivery. They’re very consistent. We used another meal prep service right before them and actually left because of regular disorganization, so in that department I give 5 stars.
The food is good taste wise, but I certainly wouldn’t say it’s great or amazing, however, it gets the job done.
As for the nutrition facts, I have to say the sodium amount per serving is very alarming, and their food doesn’t come off as salty. But 4080 mg of sodium in a blackened chick Caesar salad? That’s bewildering. If this information is correct, which I pray it’s not, that’s nearly 47% higher than the 2100-2300 we’re supposed to consume DAILY.
Between my husband and myself, we collectively have over 15 years in the health industry and we are painfully aware that this is less than ideal!
Definitely interested in the HOW and WHY of this…
***UPDATE***
They contacted me shortly after posting this review and thankfully it was a typo!
This is my first time ordering from a meal prep service, and i absolutely loved the process. It was so easy to pick my meals, my meals came first thing Sunday morning. I put 5 in the fridge and 5 in the freezer. And the quality of the food and portions for the price is the best part. I tried all different meals, but my ultimate favorite was the Beef Lo Mein. This company will be my new monthly meal prep.
