We have been using Meez for almost 10 years and have never been dissapointed! On the extremely rare…read moreoccasion that there has been any error or issue, their customer service has been absolutely top notch. The food is always delicious and I feel great feeding my family these easy to prepare meals! They have fewer prep steps and way less waste than other meal delivery companies we had tried in the past. I love that the drivers pick up the delivery bags to reuse. They will adapt most meals to your food preferences and make it clear if one has an ingredient that cant be removed (I hate mushrooms and its always quick and easy to see if they can send an option without them- never once has a meal come with them included!) Ordering online is super easy too.

The Tamale Guy has been a Chicago staple for over 20 years. I had the opportunity to sample these…read moremade-from-scratch offerings over the holidays when the Chicago History Museum offered pick-up dates for catering orders at the North and Clark Cafe. What better time to unwrap the gift of a tamale than heading into the New Year. The signature tamale varieties available for ordering included cheese, pork, and chicken, along with the famous salsa verde. I opted for chicken and was pleased with my choice. The order came with reheating and freezing instructions. The masa is light and the chicken is fresh and high-quality. The perfect comfort food to add spice and warmth to a Chiago winter! I look forward to sampling some of the other varieties and appreciated this collaboration for spotlighting a locally owned business that I might not otherwise have had the opportunity to try.

This is my second time trying tamales from The Tamale Guy. The first time was when he opened a…read morebusiness on Chicago Avenue near Damen right before Covid hit. Unfortunately, after hearing so much good feedback I decided to try them for myself. Sadly, they were a poor in substance and taste. And sadly his business didn't survive Covid. But he's reopened at another place on Diversey and Richmond between Sacramento and California out of a bar called Quality Time. I want to thank the bartender Dan or Stan(?) for helping me with my order. I ordered one dozen red tamales and a half-dozen chicken tamales. Complimentary salsa was given. Although the flavor for both tamales was good. Presentation had a lot to be desired in order for them to a true wrapped tamale. The filling on both at times were leaking from the side, as if the masa (cornmeal dough) wasn't completely covering the filling. And what's with the one single chintzy corn husk wrapping? I like that they didn't have a lot of masa covering the meat. But they were somewhat sloppy. And update your prices on your tamales since I was charged $12.00 per half-dozen instead of the $11.00 listed on your website. Or notify the customer of the price increase. One more thing, that salsa was very watery. Would I return, I don't know. The jury is still out on this one. But I might go back to the bar and try a special drink that was being offered and depend on how it went down. might order just a half dozen. I am going to check out a new establishment on Harlem Avenue near Addison, that sells tamales. And compare them to yours. The winner gets my return visits. The flavor was almost there, but packaging had a lot to be desired.

I was super excited to see a new spot at the Ghost Kitchen in River West! I never had MK noodle at…read moretheir other location but got to try out their Pho on a day I was needing some TLC. The pho came prepared with everything I was expecting! The broth could have been hotter but I just microwaved it for a bit. I really enjoyed it. They give you a large portion of noodles and broth so that it could easily make two meals or you could split it with someone else. I'll definitely order from here again!

I tried to stop by Bon Bon for some shrimp spring rolls before a show at Cobra Lounge but they were…read moresold out so I unfortunately had to take in the tunes on an empty stomach. After the show ended I was still really in the mood for spring rolls and even something more but I knew finding a decent option close to midnight that didn't require a trek would be difficult. So I was really surprised when a search turned up this random and seemingly new Vietnamese spot in River West of all places. It became clear after a little research that this was a cloud kitchen though so I was hesitant as I've had mixed results when it comes to other cloud kitchen ordering experiences. Having not been to the original MK Noodle also lended to my hesitation but after noting that they had pretty good reviews I decided to give their Express option a shot. I can't speak to the consistency with the original restaurant but I can say that the spring rolls and lemongrass pork banh mi I ordered both tasted good. Being able to add a bag of crispy, fresh fries and a can of coke to my sandwich for an additional $3 was also a nice option. The lemongrass pork was a little on the sweet side for my taste but was still enjoyable with good toppings and a crispy, airy baguette. I really like that they have a variety of spring rolls so I was able to get an order of shrimp and imitation crab. These were really good with fresh vegetables and nice sized shrimp and crab stick pieces. Not sure if they accidentally added an order of crab rangoons or if they automatically add them if you spend a certain amount or they just felt bad for making me wait but finding an order of these was a pleasant surprise as I enjoyed my late night meal. The peanut and sweet and sour sauces that came with the order also tasted really nice. The only reason I am putting 4 stars is that the order took a while longer than quoted to be ready. That being said I appreciated their customer support reaching out to me directly by phone to provide me with updates and apologize for the wait. This allowed me to just relax in my car and avoid all the bustle going on with all the delivery drivers and others picking up orders but when they phoned to let me know I could head inside I still had to wait a while longer for the food to be brought out. Still, I would definitely order from this spot again.

Each week there are different options either for pick up or delivery and if the cookies are listed, definitely get them! We've had Buffalo chicken, tilapia and a variety of other items. All have been delicious. The meals have come with salads often and veggie. Everything has super easy and quick reheating directions which has been critical as I seem time always gets away from me when making dinner. The menus are open a week ahead of time, with orders due Thursdays for the next week (Tuesday or Wednesday - pick your day). I enjoy seeing the next week's menu each week and deciding what to order... and I'll say it again, don't skip the cookies.

Some say, if you order at the ghost kitchen directly, pricing is better than going through the many, delivery apps. Delivery apps are known to add on additional service charges and some percentage of increase on food to boot. Are they bad-ass? It's something very American by meshing tater tots with meat and cheese. I've never been a huge fan tbh. The idea would have been stellar in my 20s but today, not as much. If they could season and sautée the tots before adding them to the burrito, it could be fire. As is, I imagine a food line with ingredients and employees simply going one to the other. The way the ingredients are added to the burrito is simple & basic. Care isn't taken to spread the ingredients across the tortilla prior to wrapping so there will be concentrations of components as if it's all lumped together.The side sauces are basic. Something mayo based and a hot sauce that is vinegar based. Nice of them to include with your purchase but if you have other options in your pantry you'll certainly want something else. *In this vicinity are Spanish grocery which make their own salsas. IYKYK and they could certainly give the burrito a zest worth enjoying.

I've ordered from Meal Village a couple times and had great experiences including ordering online…read morewhich was very easy. Both times the food arrived EXACTLY at 4pm and was top quality with good portions for most. My dad recently needs to be on a lower sodium diet so it's nice to provide 1-2 meals per week for him with no commitment- he usually eats only half of the portion per meal and can easily know the sodium content. My wife and I have tried a few of the meals and been happy with everything - sometimes calories and fat/sodium can be a bit higher than my wife prefers for a single meal but you have all the info before ordering. There's always a salmon option, and a recent "Retro Fried Chicken Bowl" was great if slightly unhealthier than ideal but had a nice portion of well cooked chicken and included a fantastic smothered sauce plus the side of applesauce was chunky, flavorful, and just as good as we would make at home. If you don't make your own applesauce this will show you why you should do it. Nothing but positive so far, and prices generally seem consistent with the "ready to cook" options in the market but you have much less packaging waste and don't need to spend a bunch of time cooking and cleaning up which can be nice during the week. Most dishes are 2-3 minutes heating up in the microwave and end up great. Don't get me wrong, we love to cook but I prefer to use my own recipes and for my dad with limited mobility a quick, healthier microwave meal or a "soft food" option is important. And for my wife and me, this is a nice supplement to our weeknight meals. Bravo to a great local business worth supporting!

Alyson listened to all of our questions and concerns with guests' potential needs. One of our guests has severe allergies and Hearty Boys was well aware, ensuring our guest was well take care of, providing a delicious meal and not missing out! The food was delicious and we received raved reviews from our guests! A huge priority for us was that the food was hot. We all know that wedding food could either be cold and/or not flavorful, but that was not the case here. The presentation was also wonderful! Luckily, Hearty Boys has worked in our venue (Artifact Events) countless times and they were a well oiled machine. Even the venue walk through with Alyson blew me away; every detail was discussed, even the drinks for the VIPs and she made sure the bridal party and parents' needs were addressed weeks before the wedding. On the day of, everything was orchestrated perfectly. As the bride and groom, we also had our own server (Scott) and he was incredible! The staff was attentive to all of my guests' needs and it was great to see everyone so happy with all details. My friends even commented about how professional the food delivery was to every table. You should absolutely book Hearty Boys for your event. They know what they are doing and you will be happy with their service!
