Great gift for those hard-to-buy-for folks We've sent Send-a-Meal for gifts a dozen or so times now-- always a hit! We've had a few ourselves as well; they are well packaged, easy to heat and delicious! This is our go-to for get wells, condolences, births- those times when folks could use a night off of dinner prep. In all of those dozen or so orders, only had one issue, and customer service handled it via email in less than an hour. Excellent customer service!! My only critique is that there isn't a vegetarian option or 2 in the gift "occasions menu," but that isn't enough to impact a 5-star review.

Very disappointing so far Very disappointing so far. Ordered a few meals to send to a friend returning home from a stay in the hospital. I guess I should have read more carefully, but to tell me that the $24.00 you charged for shipping takes 7-10 days? Perishable items? Unacceptable. Next time I’ll use Spoonful of Comfort or another service.

The family I purchased the dinner for… The family I purchased the dinner for wrote me saying the meal was WONDERFUL!! My only hesitation with giving 5 stars was with delivery time. Although I selected standard delivery, the family did not receive the package until the very last day provided for delivery date range. Shipping wasn’t cheap, so I guess I felt it might arrive on the first date of delivery range. However, I am delighted the family enjoyed the dinner and felt it was fabulous!!

The options were great. This was a sympathy gift. The options were great. And the receiver thanked us adding that "this was so much better than flowers!" The only issue was delivery time. Delivery is ultra expensive if you want the meals to be received while a family is still in the initial mourning period, and that delivery still got the meals delivered a week after the loved one had passed.

A big disappointment all the way around. All shipping prices were outrageous. The price for overnight shipping was especially extreme and cost prohibitive. The meal was not received in an expeditious or timely manner. In addition, he price of the meal itself was also very high, considering the quality. I chose a meal (lobster ravioli) that I thought would be unique and special as a birthday gift. Despite the high cost of the meal, and the excessive price paid for the slow shipping, the quality of the meal itself was a huge disappointment, as described by the recipient of the gift.
