This is my 5th order. I have some observations: overall meals are tasty & filling. The size of the meat servings are erratic, from bountiful to skimpy. Chicken is invariably very dry no matter how... See more

Meals had to be discarded due to poor delivery info and delivery instructions not followed

Unfortunately, the delivery logistics didn't work and the meals had to be discarded. The company said that I would get an email letting me know when the order was being picked up to be delivered. I never received that email or any delivery information. The company gave an option for delivery instructions which I provided but unfortunately they were not followed and therefore the delivery was not received and left outside for days and needed to be discarded.

Tasty and convenient!

i ordered several meals as a gift for my parents who have told me how much they enjoy them and how delicious they are. I like the convenience of being able to order without a subscription. Great service also!

Delicious Gift for new Moms

I’ve ordered and sent meals twice to my Niece who is a new mom. They have really enjoyed them. Easy ordering & quick delivery. I highly recommend.

I first got meals for my elderly mother. She wouldn’t cook for 1 and was not eating. I tried several meal services. I like that it’s not a subscription and you can customize some of the meals. My husband and I tried the meals also and they were good. Next level good. And because they come frozen you just need to pull out the ones you want for the next day.

Great gift idea, more communication needed

I was happy with my experience and the food except that it wasn't clear when the food would be delivered. I would have liked more communication such as "order received", "estimated delivery", "out for delivery", and finally "delivered". I was sending this as a gift to a friend who just had a baby and I was not sure when she would receive it until she texted me to thank me.

Food is great!!

The website is easy to navigate. Good selection of foods. I LOVE that i can change starch or veggies
East to prepare. Even though they are in plastic contains it is no problem at all to heat in oven. I place the container on a cookie sheet .. don't remove the plastic top wrap. Cook following directions.
The shipping is very good. I make sure that i order when i only have 7 meals left . I am amazed at how quickly it is shipped considering you can modify one or all your meals.
For me it is plenty of food. I am still hungry i will make a salad or bowl of fresh fruit.
I have been using this service for over two years

Side choses

I enjoy the food a lot but not happy I can not pick the sides I want with each meal. I never eat spinach or zucchini, which were automatically included in the meat loaf and filet mignon meals

Good meals, good portions

Even with customization, my orders have always been 100% accurate. I have been using Top Chef for nearly 3 years, and the meals are consistently good and well-portioned. There are a few meals I would not order again but that's more a matter of personal taste rather than any lack of quality.

I love your products

I love your products, but my latest shipment arrived in rough shape. The box was so damaged it looked like it had been dragged. Could you please ensure more careful handling or use sturdier boxes? This was delivered via FedEx.
