I think the meal kits are fantastic. I really enjoy trying the new dishes and then very pleased with the fact that there’s no leftovers. There is no waste of food. I have had too late shipments and I was compensated with a gift card on an upgrade only. If you are working with an intermittent fasting diet, sometimes the portion is not conducive to one meal a day.
food is good a few times we have gotten produce that was not good and also missing some spices. Did sent emails but no response back. So now we just suck it up and don't say anything.
I like the food. But 3 times now ingredients were missing from the box. Mostly spice packets. It's very annoying when it happens. I do check off the ingredient list for each order.
Is there something that can be done about this?

Repeatedly I get ingredients that are spoiled by the time i use them, which is within a week because I get another order then. It's supposed to make things easy but if I have to run to the store to replace things like potatoes, peppers or tomatoes it makes it frustrating
So far I have enjoyed the variety of meal options and that GC offers organic and responsibly sourced products. I’ve tired other meal services and the quality of GC is more up to par. Would like to see more variety (lots of pesto gets old).
The recipes have been great. However the only issue I have had is with the green peppers. When they are pre-cut in half, they are slimy. The last order that contained whole peppers, the peppers were already starting to rot and were soft and mushy. I had to throw them out.
Green chef responded right away and refunded some of the cost of the meals. I really appreciate that. I hope that quality control will be more involved in vegetable selection and meal packing, making sure everything is fresh.
We really like the food - only complaint is lately the organic vegetables have not been very fresh - specifically the green beans and zucchini. The recipes and taste of the food are excellent!
We’re loving our Green Chef! The meals are quick and easy for our long days and the flavors are great! The only issue we’ve had is that there have been 2 boxes that had a missing ingredient. Luckily we had the missing ingredient at home for one and made a tasty substitution for the other.
I appreciate most of the meals. While I understand the packaging being so bulky, it is a pain to break down. I do not see this being sustainable for the long run though for me. Salmon is terrible and shrimp meals are usually always tasty and still have a good taste when reheated. Steak, salmon, chicken are not good leftovers if they have to be reheated.
Overall very good quality food with delicious spices and recipes. We always enjoy our meals. I usually need to add vegetables because a true mediterranean diet has mostly veggies and a small serving of meat. Wish there were more veggies in the pack. Suggestion: Allow customer to choose their own dressings for the pack as I can't eat ones with eggs and my husband dislikes creamy ones.
Food is delicious. Creative, unusual, tastes good. Produce and ingredients are fresh and beautiful each time. Packaged well; organized; easy to sort and follow recipes.
Only downside that I've found is that it is rather expensive.
The only thing I dont like is the upcharge for certain meals. Charging an extra $10/person fir steak, shrimp, annd bow some chicken meals feels like nickel and diming and limits my choices. Id rather you raise the overall price and let me pick from the whole menu. The food is excellent and very healthy. The recipes have great variety and are fresh and new. I love learning all these new ways to make vegetables that my family actually likes and will eat.
I do love the product for the most part. At times the vegetables do not seem very fresh and sometimes are not organic but over all its been a good addition to our family dinner time. Every meal has been one I would have again.
