I have tried several of these home meal delivery services. Home chef is by far my favorite. The packaging/recipe cards, binder, instructions are very thorough and to the point. None of these are super quick. They all need things chopped etc. But,i didn't do this to get out of work. I wanted to experience new recipes, eat better portions and not waste so much food. It's really hard to cook for just 2 people but, with Home Chef there's no waste. Every recipe I've tried has been delicious! I would've given 5 stars but,i believe there's always room for improvement. But, this service it tops in my book!
I gave a 2-star rating because they charged me for product I neither ordered nor wanted. I signed up for a free meal at the suggestion of a friend. The following week they proceeded to ship to me a box of food I didn't order and charge me $40 for it! I immediately cancelled my account. If you want to use the service then it's great, but they will take advantage of you if you let them!
I have tried nearly all of these companies and Home Chef has been the best! The details on their menu cards, the ingredients included, the clear instructions are extremely detailed, well thought out and the results: delicious! I live in San Francisco and the quality of the produce, poultry and meat were top notch. REALLY enjoyed cooking with my son & Home Chef. He raved about the high-end results...and that's Mr Particular, speaking! I AM SO HAPPY I FOUND HOME CHEF! I suggest you make this part of your holiday entertaining....I AM!!!
I've had this service for about a year now, and there was a misunderstanding on my part, due to an early shipment on thanksgiving week, Their service rep Carl was very nice and helped me out. The food is fantastic, and the produce is fresh and well packed. And for those whom it matters, like myself , the packaging is recyclable.
The food is good and relatively simple to make, but their business practices are deceptive! It's expensive, too - The cost of a meal is comparable to how much I would spend if I were to go out to eat. So why not spend my money on going out to dinner instead of paying to do all the prep work myself?
I had previously tried Green Chef and was disappointed, but part of it was my fault because I had chosen the vegetarian meal plan the first week and changed it for the second week. Their packaging was color-coded so there were a lot of loose ingredients you had to put together and not mix up later. Then I tried Home Chef and it is fantastic!! I love the way they package their food and the choices are plentiful. Each week you get to choose from 10 to 13 different recipes--you can let them choose for you based on your detailed preferences or you can review what they've chosen for you and change it up. We've had four deliveries so far and we haven't had a repeat recipe yet. They also provide a plastic 3-ring binder for you to keep the recipes organized. I can't say enough about this company. I had a question for Home Chef so I accessed them through their customer service e-mail. They replied the very next morning. Oh, and their pricing is competitive, as well. It costs $19.90 for a complete 2-person meal that includes restaurant-quality steak (if you want it). It would cost me $15 to get two value meals from McDonald's! You can get 4-person meals if you're feading a family. I really love Home Chef!!
Despite their deceptive business practices, their product is genuinely good (albeit not worth it for the price, in my opinion) and the presentation is nice, so they deserve at least two stars for their quality product. But after my experience with them, I don't think they deserve any more stars than that.
