Chef Jamie prepared a Vietnamese Spring Roll fest in my home for 10 people, and we're still raving about the evening. The food was delicious, and how she put the meal all together was amazing. All the food was prepared in our kitchen. A few dishes were grilled table side, and she taught us how to make our own spring rolls. She furnished everything, including printed menus personalized for each guest. Her menu included a variety of dishes, such as lemongrass mussels, crispy fried noodles with seafood stir fry topping, chicken skewers, sugarcane shrimp, grilled fish in banana leaf and fried spring rolls. Chef Jamie is five star and highly recommended.

The food is farm to table and always arrive in neatly packaged containers every Sunday evening so we have dinners stocked to enjoy the following week. I have had meal services with others before and this is by far the most skilled cooking of farm to table meals. I think it's a good value. One recent review I read was really not fair about "scam". That's just not true but I understand the frustration that led to a misunderstanding. I know the owner/chef was busy and working to try improve their marketing, ordering app, and communications. It's a small business so you just have to contact her directly if there is an issue and she will take care of it. I did that every time and I was patient because I want this good cooking to last to feed my family. Seems like great people. I've spoken to her and met the staff who deliver food to my house. We look forward to ordering each week!

This business owner is a scammer! Don't be deceived by the older reviews left for the past owner of…read morethis business. The new owner is a scam artist! I made a mistake of signing up for 4 weeks of meal delivery, and now I am out of hundreds of dollars. The first delivery was 2 days late and required multiple attempts to contact the merchant to get the ordered meals. Week 2 meals were delivered but be aware, if you happen to be in the shower when they show up with your delivery, they won't leave your meals on your secure porch and will just drive away with your order. Week 3- NO DELIVERY, NO CALL, NO EMAIL. Again, I had too contact the merchant to try to figure out where was my food. Days later got a response that they had an issue with their refrigerator and simply neglected to let me know!!! With over a thousand dollars already tied up with this merchant, I had to scramble to purchase food for my family elsewhere. Due to the "NO CALL NO SHOW" for the week 3 delivery, I politely asked the chef to immediately refund me for the remaining 2 weeks worth of food that wasn't delivered. I explained that because they failed to honor their contract, I had to make other arrangements for the meals. The merchant NEVER REFUNDED me for the remaining 2 WEEKS worth of food that they NEVER DELIVEREDA. I ended up having to contact my credit card company, and guess what? The merchant is lying to my credit card company, claiming they delivered all 4 weeks worth of meals! I am reaching out to the Office of the Attorney General and filing a fraud complaint next. Stay as far away from this thief as you can!

We recently hired Chef Bailey to prepare meals for us after welcoming our newborn, and we couldn't…read morebe happier with the experience. She worked with us to understand our preferences, what dishes and ingredients we liked (and didn't like). We selected her 3 entrees and 3 appetizers package, and every single dish was healthy and delicious. We are vegan so they were all plant-based. As busy parents, having these meals taken care of was a huge time saver. And it was a great way to eat healthy yet flavorful foods when you don't have much time to cook yourself. Chef Bailey handled everything from cooking to cleanup to storing the dishes in Tupperware, allowing us to truly relax and enjoy the food without any extra stress. If you're looking for a chef who understands dietary preferences, delivers outstanding meals, and provides a seamless experience, my wife and I highly recommend Chef Bailey!

I am just about to start a major kitchen reno…read moreand didn't want to eat take out every single night, so I decided to give Chef Swole a try before the reno starts. I have to say, my husband and I are VERY pleased and have gone past our one week "trial run" and are now entering our third week. First, I feel like I spend wayyyy more money than this at Whole Foods every week, and only get a few meals out of it. Second, I am a working mom, and by the time I get home after being stuck in traffic, cooking is the last thing I want to do. Dinner is done, and I can spend more time with my daughter when I get home. Third, the food is really, really good. Ingredients are high quality and what I'd make at home if I had the time. Fourth, portions are awesome. We signed up for the deluxe, and I split my meal with my daughter (15 months old) and I am more than full. My husband is always full off of one meal too. Sometimes for lunch we will even split a container in half and be fine (and we get more meals out of it!)

Food taste: In other weeks, I've had to add my own sauces. I always order the deluxe portion for 20% more food because the regular size is too small for me. I cook and add more veggies because most prepared foods don't give me enough. The only thing I needed to add to these last meals were a pinch of salt, but this makes sense because the food is made for all types of people. Delivery: I love the fact that the food is delivered to my doorstep. They deliver on Sundays and seem to be providing service every other week now. There are 4 options available but you can adjust how many servings you want of each meal. Service: No issues and I get a prompt response each time.
