This is for the version & price point of Planted Table that existed in 2021/2022. (I stopped…read moreordering from them because my allergies were activated, and I needed to do an elimination diet. When I came back to them a couple years later, the price point had gone up & I was priced out.) The portion sizes were large. I think it was like $12-13/meal. 99% of the dishes were delicious. I was REALLY pleasantly surprised at the flavor & taste. I expected gentrified dishes. It was good! I was also specifically looking for meal delivery that generated less waste. Planter table delivered that. I got cool enough with my driver (and tipped well!) that he brought me a little thank you plant. I loved that I had the same driver each time. It was just a really pleasant experience overall. Nothing bad to say.

I am not vegan but this hits the spot and is the best meal service I have found. The food is still amazing and I'm happy to see the meal options have expanded, there's seasonal produce options and Acme bread, and now they post calorie information. They have family style option to get a bigger portion for those who have a family, or for me, to bring to a pot luck. They also have individual desserts and full size pies/cakes. Seriously - they have everything. They no longer offer wine for those who care. There are some additional pick up options, too, but I stick with Jack London Square on Wednesdays from 11:30-2:00. Pro tip: get the cookie dough!!!!! And the chili. And the breakfast burritos. And the bake at home pizza ........ $20 credit Referral code: QWC3D2MJ

I was lucky enough to receive my very first Kitchen Doula surprise delivery as a baby shower gift…read moreright before heading off for maternity leave...what a gem this local small business is! I was so impressed with the delivery service, and my kit arrived in a nice insulated reusable Kitchen Doula bag. The hearty soups and stews came in so clutch for me during those early newborn days and long nights at 3am, when feeding time for baby came around and I was starvvvvinggg (and cold scurrying down to my kitchen in the odd hours of the night). I loved the nourishing cock-a-leek soup paired with a side of the plain biscuits...my husband and I were practically rushing to beat the other to the last serving of it because it was so nourishing and yummy (of course, I always got the seconds). We had a variety of the other staple soups, and I appreciate how diverse the options are on their site...you can't get bored with the selections. A couple years later, I have found myself riding the waves of the cold/flu season (which seems to keep cycling back in our household especially with a toddler in preschool passing germs back and forth), and I am needing to have nourishing, fresh, and warming soups to help bring comfort...and Kitchen Doula, we meet again! This is now my go-to recommendation for new mamas, parents, or peeps, just needing to find some relief in the food they eat, in a way that feels good to put into your body and to spend your money on. So happy for this service!

If you're a mother or mother-in-law in trying to give a gift to the mother of your new grandchild, skip this one. for her I pay 1/3 of the cost for shipping is really ridiculous particularly when the site says free shipping on $150.

The ambiance is elevated, precise and elegant. We appreciated the special touches of service as well as the kind people working.

We will be back very soon to try more!

A neighborhood gem with fresh & creative sushi…read more The restaurant is small with a few tables on the sidewalk. We were only able to secure the first lunch seating for our party of 6. The staff were knowledgeable and attentive. (I was amused by the "tablet" that grew into a handtowel when water was added) We ordered Smoked Hamachi Roll (a must & IG worthy), fresh oysters, Hamachi Roll, Pacific Roll, Sushi and Sashimi Set, Hamachi Collar set, 7 handroll set. The fish is so fresh and rice-ratio was perfect. We had such a pleasant dining experience. Butterfish will be our go-to spot for sushi in Berkeley area

As a vegetarian at the time, I just didn't go out of my way to try TSH. Fast forward: Attended TSH's 20th anniversary celebration, which had something nourishing and tasty for everyone - vegetarian, vegan, locavore, paleo, raw, gluten-free, etc. *Cherished TSH 20th anniversary recipe book, with fantastic photos from Mary Dee, featuring veg-friendly Three Sisters Chili, Gingered Greens with Butternut Squash & Coconut Milk, and Carrot Cake with Sprouted Spelt Flour. *Enjoyed all-ages friendly activities like Making Butter in Mason Jars with marbles, playing Weston Price is Right bingo (where all participants won snacks), Making Transit Bites (date bar with dried plums & coconut), etc. This activity space had bookcases filled with holistic health/nutrition/cooking books - many that I read while studying at Bauman. *Appreciated tour for behind-the-scenes look at kitchen and fermentation room. Learned more from museum-like display of The Lexicon of Sustainability (PBS series) photographs by Douglas Gayeton with TSH's local commentary. *Nourished with all-day access to sample chicken bone broth, chocolate olive oil cake (gluten-free), and sauerkraut (vegan). *TSH store featured Sally Fallon's Nourishing Traditions books, as well as curated selection of mostly locally produced artisanal foods and TSH's own wholesome foods made from scratch on-site. *My favorite purchase: Rize Up Bakery's Olive Parm Truffle Black Pepper sourdough loaf at 20% off! So delicious when spread hand-shaken butter over sliced sourdough. *Very welcoming space and community of worker-owners committed to sharing slow food ethos and yummy nourishing foods! *Conveniently located near AC Transit stop, walking distance from Downtown Berkeley BART station (also near Saturday Farmers' Market) as well as free parking lot. Totally worthwhile to make one's way to TSH!

I get that it's hard to make really high quality food with good ingredients at affordable prices so I don't really have the answer.

Adeline Food Hall 5333 Adeline St…read more Emeryville, CA 94608 "Dela" is the latest virtual brand/menu of Comidazo Kitchens at the Adeline Food Hall. Dela is a ghost kitchen, so it's either pickup or delivery. There's no dining room or table service. DoorDash was offering a promo to try this new restaurant, so I placed an order on a Saturday afternoon. The Comidazo website, says Dela is a Caribbean themed menu. It says...."Jerk and spicy meats or veggies over white rice and red beans take you on a journey to the Caribbean." I ordered "The Lechon Bowl." It was a hearty meal of rice and red beans, with juicy pork. It also had sweet plantains. It was alot of food for $15.00. I also ordered Lechon Eggroll and Peeza Poaket Frito. Both for $5.00. Okay, I have tried some of Comidazo's other virtual brands, and the eggrolls and empanadas appeared to be the same. It looks like they only change the entrees. The Lechon Eggroll was the same. It's nice that they packed the eggroll and Peeza Frito in foil pouches. They arrived still hot! However, the Peeza Poaket Frito was a waste of money. It was described as a pizza pocket with pepperoni and cheese. It was more like overcooked pepperoni and dried up cheese. Something in it was crunchy. Overall, a fair to good experience. I won't order pizza pockets here again.

I have always been against meal prep, because I always felt that I could cook the food myself…read more However, when I started getting more busier and older, I decided to try Local Foodz because of a close friend. The first time I try, their food was actually my friends meal prep meal and I was so shocked that it was healthy, but tasted extremely delicious. It's been over a year now that I have been with Local Foodz and I plan on having them as my meal prep company for life. I love how you can customize your meals to your own liking and lifestyle. If you're on a clean bulk, on a cut or calorie deficit, or if you just want healthy meals readily available in your fridge. My personal favorite dishes are their: - Beef Bulgoi with 2 Veggie Fritters with their ginger sauce - Ground Beef with Cauliflower Grits and spinach with their cheese or cream of mushroom sauce - Hainan Chicken Thighs - Mongolian Beef - Shrimp & Gritz - Salmon with Spinch and cream of mushroom and rice The lists goes on and on I also really love how they have the nutritional facts on the meal prep box and you can see exactly what is in your food from protein, carbohydrates and fat to all the ingredients and nutritional information. There is a reason why this company has been around for over 10 years now. The food is delicious and it's also very delicious.
