I followed the directions with the temperature set to 350 degrees, and cooked for 40 minutes. I actually left it in for 50 minutes, and then let it cool off. The sauce provided was amazing, as was the side of vegetables to be roasted with the provided oiled seasoning. The meatloaf? I ate a slice and felt sick later, but couldn't pinpoint why. Later that night I went to cut a slice for dinner and noticed it was raw throughout. *Stay away from the meatloaf. :/

If I could give Smart Meals six stars, I would. I've tried other meal prep vendors before, and…read morelet's just say... they had me running (if you know what I mean ). But with Smart Meals? No gas, no bloat, just clean, delicious food made with high-quality, grass-fed meats and fresh veggies you can actually taste. The flavor is amazing, the portions are spot on, and the meals leave me feeling full, light, and satisfied -- not stuffed or sluggish. My favorites rotate weekly, but every single one has been a hit. No mystery ingredients, no sodium overload, just real food that fuels me. And let's talk about price -- for the quality you're getting, it's honestly underpriced. I've paid way more for food that didn't even come close to this standard. So if you're tired of meal prep food that smells like gym socks or tastes like salt bombs, give Smart Meals a try. Your stomach -- and anyone sitting next to you -- will thank you.

I had a regular lemonade which was really good. They played 90s ebb at just the right volume. They had a lot of mixed drink options: alcohol-infused gummy bears and colorful slushy drinks. The food menu was pretty decent. I had collard greens with smoked turkey and rice. It was steak night. most of their menu leans heavily toward gumbo, rice, and other Southern dishes. What's funny is , I've seen this place on DoorDash before but never thought to order. Turns out you can actually get food and cocktails delivered. That's a huge plus in my book. All in all, I like this place. It's very casual, good vibes, and a rnb playlist that is decent!

Props for including deboned dark meat as well as white meat, it definitely adds to the moistness. Delivery was no fuss, since it was cold enough to keep outside, but in warmer times, leaving a cooler out for them to drop it in would be ideal, since they could come by while you are out. Leave it in the fridge for a day to defrost, then stick it in the oven for an idiot proof dinner. Will try the Shepherd's pie next.

My favorite was the Shepherds Pie - and I have had the the pie at the Firkin & Phoenix Pub in Montrose and I'd have to say that Comfort is as good if not better. Plus it's almost have the price and I don't even have to leave the freakin house to eat it. Absolutely 100% worth the week it takes to deliver. Eat at home for once.

I was craving barbecue--specifically lean brisket and a good beef sausage link--and this spot had…read moresolid reviews, so I decided to give it a try. When you walk in, the first thing you see is the bar area. At about 3 p.m., on a Friday, the bar stools were nearly full. One reviewer mentioned that the bar seemed to be the main attraction during their visit, and I can see why. I actually wasn't sure where to go to order food until the bartender pointed me further inside. Behind a wall is the actual ordering line. Even getting started was a little confusing. You grab a tray and the first thing you encounter is the fountain drink machine, which makes it feel like you've skipped a step. Meanwhile the dining area--roughly the same size as the bar area--was practically empty. The whole layout just felt a bit disjointed. The menu also threw me off a bit. Instead of typical barbecue plate options (one-, two-, or three-meat plates with sides), most items are priced by the pound. There was one half-pound meat option with two sides, and thankfully they let me split that between two meats. I ordered lean brisket and a homemade beef link with pinto beans and green beans. The beef link was excellent. The casing had that perfect snap, and the filling was moist and crumbly--the way a good Texas sausage should be. Too many places pack sausage so tightly it eats like baked salami, but this one had great texture and flavor. The brisket, unfortunately, was pretty dry. The pinto beans and green beans were fine--filling, but nothing memorable. And then came the crescendo of the visit: the barbecue sauce. They appear to offer only one sauce, and it tasted strongly mustard-based...which I absolutely detest. What made it even more confusing is that the sauce was a reddish-orange color, which made me assume it was a typical tomato-based BBQ sauce. Nope. If there were other options, they weren't offered or pointed out. One other drawback is how close the bar is to the dining area. Sitting within earshot of some pretty colorful bar conversations while trying to eat was a little off-putting. So overall: great beef sausage, dry brisket, forgettable sides, and a mustard-forward sauce that sealed the deal for me. If there were a traditional sauce option, I might consider coming back. But that mustard-based barbecue sauce? Yeah... that is surely a deal breaker.
