We have been very happy with Jay's food. He cooks for us once a week, covering two meals for our…read morefamily. He is careful, flexible, honest, punctual, and hard-working. He leaves our kitchen just as he found it, except with two wonderful meals in our refrigerator, ready to eat, with detailed reheating instructions. There is always a little bit more than we can eat, so we occasionally invite over a friend to enjoy the food with us, or we have leftovers. What can I say about the food? Healthy, balanced, creative, and delicious. Grilled salmon with rice noodles, vegetables, and Panang sauce; swordfish Napoleans; grilled chicken breasts with rosemary new potatoes, zucchini, and squash; and simpler dishes, like turkey meatloaf with roasted red potatoes and peas, or chicken enchiladas with rice. If there is a problem, it is that the food is too good, and sometimes we can't help having seconds. Yes, it is a bit of a luxury, but really the best thing is that we get to enjoy two family meals during the week, when we would otherwise be just barely getting food on the table. From what I understand, research in positive psychology says that spending money in a way that lowers your stress level and gives you time with people you love delivers more happiness than spending money on possessions. We're finding this to be true.

Two of the biggest eggs I've ever seen. . The soup was enough for two. Very satisfying, creamy but but not overkill. I'm impressed! The chicken dumplings although styled nicely I thought were a bit on the mushy side. I tried the smallest wings just to finally try Korean wings. 4 1/2 wings for $7+ expensive for me. Although yummy! I'm giving five stars cause that soup was off the chain, but a discount or coupon will sway me back for those appetizers.

She's been really thoughtful about getting to know me, my story, my needs, and the foods I like and dislike, so I feel super taken-care-of. She's kind, easy to communicate with, and delivers the meals to me by hand. And, yes -- the food is incredibly delicious! I am in great hands and really couldn't ask for more. Thank you, Natasha!

There were meals that I would have never thought of to make on my own that have quickly turned into favorites!

Would 10/10 recommend!

Baked beans did not make it in the bag. Ordered a pint of creamy mash potatoes charged for it and only received a side. Same size as cold slaw so definitely a side portion. Baby Back Ribs were good. Pulled pork we did receive tasted good. Peanut Butter Snickers Pie was really good and so rich a small portion is perfect. Staying at a hotel asked for plastic silverware none received. Good thing God made fingers before forks. They really need to double check their delivery orders before stapling them shut. The next day the manager did refund us half our cost and apologized for the inconvenience so I am adding a star since the food was really good and there was a follow up.

It contained griyo (fried pork shoulder), rice and beans, bannann peze (fried plantains), pikliz (pickled veggies), side salad, and Sos Ti-Malice (warm hot sauce). The fried items in the dish were both flavorful and quite tender. The pikliz (pickled veggies) were a necessary, very tasty complement to the dish. The hot sauce was nice and quite balanced spice-wise. I also got the Soursop with Ginger and Lime drink (ask for their fresh juices). It was refreshing, with an intense ginger burn after each sip. However, it was pretty expensive at ~$9. Note that certain pictured menu items may not be available and other available items may not be on the menu. Definitely ask them for the current day's items. +1 for the solid service!

When my husband and I first decided to find a personal chef we thought "maybe this will help, we…read morecan't keep eating out, it's killing us." Neither of us really knew what a personal chef service looked like. We love cooking but we didn't/don't have time during the week to cook. We hoped we'd get more vegetables into our diet at a minimum. That not eating out would mean less of the white devils (sugar, salt). I reached out to The Skinny Beet in a frenetic and desperate state last December. Since they've entered our lives the sun is shining, the clouds have parted and Mondays are happy (re: they are miracle workers). We have been a weekly client with The Skinny Beet for almost 3 months now. At the end of 1 month we reached out to them and shared a list of each positive benefit directly or indirectly related to hiring them as personal chefs. I would like to share this list with you (reader of my review): 1. My husband and I spend more time together. 2. We portion control better. 3. We work out more (have time to work out). 4. We feel better: less groggy, less irritable, more energy. 5. The food they make tastes flavorful, wholesome and satisfying. We get to eat our favorite cuisines with less of the sugar/salt and more grain/vegetable variety than what we know how to cook. 6. We waste less. 7. The brain space we wasted thinking about what to eat, what to cook, when to go pick things up, crap-I-forgot-an-ingredient --- Poof! Gone. Which, working full time while part time grad school, any and all brain space I can allocate to my work is priceless for me. From Week One: Flexibility with schedule and menu planning was made easy for us - We come home and our kitchen tools and pans lovingly (and somewhat expensively) acquired over time are clean - There are delicious dishes made with quality ingredients ready for devouring in the fridge. We are so grateful for the difference The Skinny Beet has made in our quality of life. Seriously, I wasn't kidding: Miracle Workers.

I didn't really…read moreknow what to expect, and when they asked me what I wanted to learn I told them I wanted to learn "some of the basics". Well in just a couple hours we were able to cover SO much ground. From making a delicious salsa and homemade chips, to a steak and a chicken, even farro with caramelized onions. Not only did I learn tons of REALLY helpful skills that I've already been implementing, but I had delicious food that lasted me for a handful of meals THAT I HELPED MAKE! They brought all their own ingredients and left my kitchen completely spotless (possibly cleaner than how they found it) I am so thankful to these two and I look forward to our next lessons.

I worked with Logan, who was the most patient person on the planet as I changed the menu 3 times! Each time he was helpful and quickly sent out a new invoice. He worked within my budget and made great suggestions for food to fit our brunch theme. On the day of the event, the food arrive promptly and was setup very quickly. The delivery man (who's name unfortunately slips me) was super friends and helpful. The food itself was hot and delicious. There was no left overs, the guest loved it and many asked where we got it from. Clean up was easy as everything is disposable. Would definitely use them again for my next event and I recommend you do as well!

From delicious buffet breakfasts for 1,000 to bountiful lunches or intimate cocktail fare - they always get it right and never seem to run out of food. An amazing feat. Particularly love their quiches, French toast, cinnamon rolls, grilled veggies and huge trays of lasagna. The staff is also gracious every time and loves to get into the spirit of a party with us. For a recent Ugly Sweater holiday event, Stacy suggested cookies decorated as ugly sweaters (fantastic!) and her staff all wore ugly sweaters while serving (thank you, Logan, and crew). Made it so fun for everyone. Cannot recommend Sensational enough for an event - large or small. You won't be disappointed!
