**July 2026: Sunday Afternoon Visit**…read more During my SDCC weekend, I walked by Michaela's Meals in the Gaslamp Quarter, which was right between my hotel and the convention center. This shop was just one street down from Ralphs and Vitality Tap so it was conveniently located. On Sunday afternoon, I noticed the space was open for business, so I popped in to check it out. It's a small spot with a staff member, a fridge full of pre-made meals, a little bar area with two stools, a cold water pitcher, and a microwave. The main business model is a weekly subscription, but I learned that the owner also keeps leftovers in the fridge for grab-and-go customers on Wednesdays and Sundays from 1:30-5 p.m. They also run a "buy 4 get 1 free" and "buy 8 get 2 free" promotion, which makes the meals an even better value. I assumed she makes an abundance and sells those for $10 a meal, but since I stopped by close to closing, I got mine for $5 each. I grabbed two to try because the meals looked very nutrition-focused and considering I ate basically garbage throughout Comic Con it was a smart choice to fuel up with real food. I tried a Mediterranean chicken over yellow rice and zucchini, as well as a ground hamburger-style sloppy joe-type meal. The food definitely leans healthy, and considering how inconvenient it is to eat well at SDCC, this was a great find. Since she has Wednesday and Sunday pickups, I'm now contemplating doing a preview-night (Wednesday) pickup for a couple of meals on my next visit. I'll be in touch with Michaela's for future San Diego trips.

Michaela's Meals has solved my problem of trying to eat healthy dinners during the week. i've been…read moregetting 5 meals delivered on sunday for a month now and have really liked every meal i've ordered so far. they heat up easy, are perfectly portioned (with the ability to size up on certain meals for extra protein), and made with fresh and healthy ingredients. they also stay perfectly fresh in the fridge for the entire week. i was really skeptical before getting my first order but the dishes really taste great...definitely better than anything i could make during the week with limited time. highly recommend it!

After researching food delivery options like Hello Fresh, I decided to try Viva Foods to support a…read morelocal business which also provides keto options for meals. They release a changing menu on Tuesdays with delivery on Monday morning. I've been part of this program for almost a month with the exception of one week due to Thanksgiving. The menu includes the option to choose two snacks which can be substituted for one meal. If you need to make any modifications to your meal (i.e. exclude mashed potatoes for extra veggies), all you need to do is provide dietary needs in a field on the Google form, and if there are any questions, you can handle everything through text. There are checkboxes on the Google form for keto and paleo options. For the convenience of food prep and to support locally, I've been happy with Viva Foods. They provide a healthy and convenient option with how busy I am with work. Thanks Viva Foods!

Plus, they're local and use local farmers. So, that's a plus. 1 minor thing is just I wish I could select what meals I wanted in my subscription instead of chef's choice, because I personally just WISH I could order some meals more than once because of how delicious they were.

Last week, I decided to give Farm Fresh Meals a try as I'm always on the go, and I've been looking…read morefor a healthy meal alternative to going out to eat a lot. However I was very disappointed with these meals. First off, they have a form you fill out and it shows you all of the meals. Looking at the photos, I was excited to try the food. But before I even got to seeing my meals, the wrong meals were delivered to me. I had to call the support and they assured me that the driver would come back and swap them out, a bad start to my experience. Following that, when I finally got the food I was very disappointed. The food looks nothing like the photos, and not only that but it is extremely bland, but not only that, all of the lean protein I ordered was extremely dry, as once I reheated it it seemed like it was cooked too much. To give them the credit though, the pork wasn't dry, however that's not saying much given its easy to keep that from being dry. I've tried multiple competitors in regards to meal prep and this is the most expensive meal prep company I've ever tried, but it's considerably worse than the others in San Diego.

If you don't want a meal, you can order any item in bulk. That's very helpful. I always need my food GF and this company offers all of theirs GF. Nice!

Needing a daily food service, we wanted meals that were both appetising and suitable for everyday consumption. This service truly delivers home-style meals, and their menu is very well curated. Having tried several tiffin services over the past few months, we found that while each had its own merits, the food often became too spicy and oily, making it unsuitable for daily consumption. Additionally, some services offered food combinations that just didn't work well together. This tiffin service, however, provides mild Indian food with less oil and spices, making it perfect for daily meals. The quality and taste have been consistently good. Highly recommend if you're looking for delicious, home-style Indian meals that you can enjoy every day!
