This is my first time trying a meal delivery service. 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!)

I've ordered 3x now I believe and I would have to say the last delivery was the absolute best. I…read morelove Asian foods and he hit it out the park that week. 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.

I altered almost every meal before I ate it and I threw away a few because they were just so bland and did not look appetizing. Now for my real concern with this company, I was given a gift card by some friends to use for meals after my mom died. Nice gesture. The problem was, 1) the gift card has an expiration date?? 2) you cannot just use the gift card one and done, you HAVE TO subscribe to the service for bi weekly or weekly meals - not what I'm looking for. After one meal delivery that was quite underwhelming, I attempt to cancel the "subscription" (the online interface is not very user friendly) and they deliver the meals anyways, I get them to take it back and they do so, but the charge remains on my card. In 2 weeks, they try to deliver AGAIN. I ask them to please take back the delivery as I have several times online and via email and text asked them to cancel this subscription. This second charge is removed, but the first one is still on my card 2 months later. I've sent many many emails following up on my concern and requesting a refund to no avail. The $200 charge remains on my card for meals that they took back immediately upon delivery. I would not recommend these meals or this service to a friend.

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!

The concept is great--being able to order from multiple "restaurants" in one place is super…read moreconvenient--but the execution has been pretty underwhelming. I've tried a handful of spots, and the only one that really stood out was Hanu Poke. The portions are generous as I was able to make two meals from my order. The other places I've tried--Detroit Brick Pizza, Streetbird, Wing Trip, and Tejas BBQ--has been just okay. My latest order from Tejas--brisket and BBQ pork sandwiches--was better than fast food, but nothing special. The app is easy to use and gives good order updates, and prep usually takes about 20-30 minutes. Pickup is hit or miss--sometimes it's ready on the shelf, other times you have to ask someone to grab it. I usually do takeout, but the space itself is clean with some seating--just a bit sterile, and there's basically no service beyond pickup. Biggest thing is managing expectations. It's not fine dining--just a step up from fast food, with slightly higher prices.

I used the app to place my order in advance and it was ready to go by the time I got there. Everything was well packaged and I didn't have any issues with pick up. I ordered a couple things from Kin House including the pork egg rolls, shrimp lo mein, and Chinese green beans which were all pretty good and reasonably priced, especially the shrimp lo mein which had 8 large shrimp in it! For $16! It's hard to review a whole food hall based on one experience and I read reviews that had issues with some of the other vendors, but from what I can tell Kin House seems to be a good option.

Unfortunately, the day of my engagement party was a completely different experience. They were scheduled to arrive at 4:30 PM but showed up at 5:30 with no communication, leaving very little time before the party started at 6. The setup was also not handled as expected. The delivery person didn't set anything up--instead, I had to unwrap platters and arrange everything myself. The tiered display we paid for wasn't even brought, and the eucalyptus was just dropped in a pile for me to deal with. I also had to ask him to open jars and put out utensils--it felt like he was just trying to leave as quickly as possible. Since then, we have reached out multiple times regarding a refund for the add-ons (specifically the tiered setup that was never provided), and have received no response.

But the day of my engagement party arrived and it all went downhill. They were supposed to be there at 4:30 but were running late without communication. They did not show until 530 (party started at 6). The delivery guy did not set anything up like he was supposed to, instead had me unwrap the platters myself and place them. There were supposed to be tiers but that equipment wasnt brought, the delivery man also just left the eucalyptus in a pile meaning I had to do it myself. I even had to ask him to open the honey jars and put out the utensils, he clearly just wanted to dip. I have reached out multiple times to get refunded for the extras (liek the tiered set up) refunded and they are ghosting me. Very disappoining experience in set up, execution and communication after the fact. I would look elsewhere if you want peace of mind for your event.
