I don't know about others, but it's been a real challenge for me to eat healthy during Rona times…read more After noticing my expanding waistline with dismay I decided to change things up a bit and took to Yelp for healthy alternatives. I found it's no easy task to find fresh vegan food in these parts, let alone places that deliver throughout Nassau and Western Suffolk counties as does Conscious Kitchen LI. So I was very happy to stumble upon CKLI's pics of beautiful fresh veggie concoctions on Instagram, perused their weekly online menu and placed an order via their secure website (note: currently CKLI is a delivery only biz, no eat-in facilities). Food is made from scratch, locally sourced and organic. For my first delivery I got: 1) weekly special salad - microgreens, chick peas, beets, asparagus, strawberries, almonds and other goodies with miso dressing on the side; 2) Falafel Hummus Wrap; 3) Thai Butternut Squash Soup; 4) Pasta Fagioli Soup; 5) Green and Red Juices. My food was delivered on time, nicely packaged in compostable containers. I enjoyed everything I ordered and portions were pretty good, especially the pristinely fresh salad which weighed in at 16 oz. Fresh squeezed juices were especially delicious, housed in cute glass bottles that one can exchange at the next order drop-off. Soups were more like stews, thick, hearty and well spiced with fresh herbs. CKLI is a small biz that delivers locally (0-5 miles from Glen Cove) from 5-6:30PM, and 5+ miles away from 6:30-8PM. I fall into the latter area and got my food at 6:30. Delivery is flat rate $5 Glen Cove local and $6 for other LI towns, not bad if you're placing a robust order. For now my cheeseburger-addicted hubbie took a pass on these vegan vittles, but I'm still hoping he'll try something from my next CKLI deliver lol. Whether you're a dedicated vegan or just looking for a fresh healthy alternative to the usual oily caloric takeout fare, you may want to give Conscious Kitchen LI a try.

Usually when it comes to meal prep stores, I always find their meals either dry or bland. But…read moreHealthy Meals Direct is by far my favorite place to get meal prepped food! Their food tastes VERY fresh and flavorful! They have tons of options to choose from, and are resonably priced! You can order your meals online or you can pick them out at the store, but their website has a lot more options than they have in store. But they still have 50+ options at their Oceanside store front location. Amazing meals, amazing staff and will continue getting my meals here!

There hasn't been a single meal I haven't liked. And although the prices for the refrigerated meals are very reasonable, i just learned the frozen meals have a discount and it's $100 for 20 meals which makes each one $5. I just wish they were open earlier in the morning so I could grab one to go for work when needed.

I recently visited the Jericho Turnpike Huntington store and picked up a meal that was clearly…read morelabeled as $7.77. However, at checkout, I was told the price was $9.89. When I brought this to the assistant's attention, she called her supervisor and explained that the label had not been updated to reflect the new price. While I understand pricing errors can happen, good customer service would have been to honor the clearly marked price and correct future labels--not insist I pay more than what was advertised. Instead, I was told I had to pay the higher price. It left me questioning the store's pricing practices. This isn't the first disappointing experience. On another occasion, the same assistant refused to let me return a meal I had just purchased--despite the fact that I hadn't even left the store and only wanted to exchange it because my daughter changed her mind. Additionally, I've noticed that the portion sizes of the meals have been shrinking noticeably over the past year. Overall, I'm becoming increasingly dissatisfied with the service and value at this location.

Hard to say it I would go again since it seems they aren't aware of allergens or have oversights like this with their ingredients.
