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.

Where to begin? First, thanks to Yelp for allowing me to narrow my decision down! Yelpers have…read moreyet to let me down and THIS is why I automatically use Yelp all the time! To start, I reached out to Chef Bernard based on the Yelp reviews to see if he could prepare a romantic dinner for my husband and I on Sunday, Feb. 15, 2015. He was available and agreed to serve us. From the start, he was very professional and communicated well. He sent me sample menus with options galore. If there was something on the menu that I wanted mixed up a little, he had no objections. My husband is a very 'simple' eater so I wanted to know if the Chef could also prepare something 'simple' like Potato Au Gratin. Whew....he did and it was sooooooo good! He arrived at our home in what I call his mobile kitchen (because he had everything in it that one could imagine), introduced himself to us and got down to business. We had a few small plate items, entree and dessert. He talked to us while he prepared the meals and it simply felt like he was a friend. It did not feel weird or awkward having him in our kitchen at all. It was great! He gave us tips on cooking at he prepared meals and spoke to us more about who he was (in and out of the kitchen). Some of the items we enjoyed were: 1. Pork chimichangas 2. Cajun eggrolls 3. Peking duck rolls 4. Filet (cooked to order) 5. Potato au gratin 6. Broccoli w/cheese 7. Cheese blintzes wi/ a strawberry wine sauce 8. Crab cakes Everything was perfect! He served us well and we could not have asked for a better experience. We are looking forward to more dinner parties with him in our home. If you are looking for a chef to help you make a memorable event, Chef Bernard is your answer. He also prepares weekly meals for you or your family. My husband really enjoyed the food and he is still raving about it. We tried items we typically would never try in a restaurant. We loved it and we are true fans!

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!

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.

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.
