With the price of food as well, I thought mind as well pay for healthier versions. Found this place on google and put an order in. I've used them for about 4 weeks now and overall been very pleased. Portion sizes are larger than other meal prep places I've used. Quality of the food has been great and taste has been great. I do pick up at a local gym so I save on shipping, which brings down the cost. The menu is quite large and new options are added. Make sure you return the bag and ice (leave out or drop back off at gym) or they will charge you for it. If you live in South OC and need a meal prep places I've used I do recommend it.

If they have bigger catering event booked for the date I was looking for, I would appreciate if they informed me at least. I am glad that the business owner responded to my above message and did have the sales manager get back to me right away. Truly appreciate for the great customer care. Thank you and appreciate that. Unfortunately, I have already committed with a different caterer. Wished it worked from the start. Next time then. Be sure to fix the outbox issue so that there is no misunderstanding with your potential customers.

I hate cooking but I want to eat fresh, healthy food. I have tried quite a few meal prep places and…read moreHappy Penguin is hands down the best. I have no idea how they can offer so many choices! There are pages of meals available on their site to choose from. I love being able to have a variety. Other meal prep places I have tried don't offer this kind of variety and I find that everything kind of tastes the same even when it's different. Not the case with Happy Penguin. And the portion sizes are very generous!! I freaked out the first week I ordered because the food was not cold when it was delivered, it even felt a little warm. I reached out to them and they let me know that they deliver right after they cook the food so it shouldn't be cold. Give them a try if you are looking for a meal prep service. You can do weekly plans which brings the price down a bit but you also can just order when you need or want it, no contract. Their pricing is also really good compared to other places I have tried.

I don't always eat all my meals at home, so the number of meals I order depends on what's on the calendar for the week to come. Happy Penguin not only offers the flexibility of allowing me to pick and choose from their vast selection of meals - and order just as many or as few as I like, but their offerings are DIVERSE and DELICIOUS! Their deliveries are dependable (and the containers are recyclable). Bonus - I usually get two meals out of each Happy Penguin meal I buy, so it is an excellent value for the money as well. P.S. I LOVE the "Build Your Own Meal" option where you can choose your protein, your carb, your veggie and any sauces you might like!

All are extremely outdated and is not what you get. All are true on our account, small sizes, bland food, sometimes raw protein (meatballs) have been sent. Lucky to get your order on time with your actual selections, as we would often get whatever they had available ignoring dietary restrictions. I don't even think the published macros are accurate based on what you get. More recently, terrible communication (lack of), no customer service, and no deliveries. If you're relying on a food service you should get your food. Look elsewhere and avoid!!! There's plenty of other more honest companies out there.

I've become pleased with their services. Not only do they listen well, but they've gone beyond and have helped me find a way to get my deliveries to me faster. There may even be an option to pick up your orders sooner, if ready, which works for me, since I'm not too far from them. Rudy strives to find solutions and caters well with the customer. He's awesome. They even provide helpful discounts. Which is dope. This service really does help eating healthier and specific way easier than grocery shopping and cooking the food on one's own.

Yet by the time I get to the checkout the cart is always full, usually including numerous exotic things. I don't really need. This location is always super busy and the location barely seems to fit where it is. Parking is always tight and the store is almost always super crowded. Although I feel like it could be twice as big and still be just as crowded. There are the family favorites that keep us coming back, though, especially the frozen food section and all of the different delicacies they have. The frozen gnocchi is always a hit as well as the latkes. Air frying for the win on those. Overall five stars and would join the hordes of shoppers again.
