Worse than a grocery store frozen dinner! Paid $27 for each meal from Chef Cat- was expecting at least flavor- but there was none- tough meat too.

We ordered a combo meal package from Home Bistro and fell in love with the quality of the food. At first when my wife ordered it, I thought it was a bit expensive but then when we had the first meal, it was an easy decision that it was well worth it. It is truly something that exceeded my expectations and would take it long time to make at home. It is the quality you would see in a restaurant

The chicken was on the tough side and lacked flavor. There should have been a sauce, and the chicken should have been tender enough so I didn't need a steak knife. I ended up giving it to the dogs. The carrots and couscous were decent but too many carrots, not enough couscous. Definitely disappointing and wouldn't buy again.

We have used Hello Fresh and Home Chef for years and in general have been satisfied. I wanted to try something with less prep so I gave Home Bistro a try. Granted, we are a bit snobbish when it comes to food and our expectations are quite high, however, having said that, I can't see how anyone would be satisfied with this service. Swanson frozen dinners are more appetizing than the food we received. Everything tends to be the same consistency (mushy) with the same consistently poor flavors. We tried two beef, one shrimp and one chicken dinner and I wouldn't have any of them again on a bet. This is terrible food.

I ordered three meals, hoping that we would like it enough to send some meals to a far-away family member as a Christmas gift. FedEx stopped delivering in the middle of the day on our delivery date because of snow, so the package arrived a day late. The food was still cold to the touch, but was completely defrosted. I called Home Bistro and spoke with John, who said as long as the food was still cold it was safe to put it in the freezer. I am not comfortable re-freezing meat, since that tends to decrease the quality and can make it unsafe to eat, so I decided to store the food in the fridge and make it the same day. Unfortunately I did not think to cut the cooking times, and John did... Read More

Disappointing. The price is high for what you get, many dishes as expensive as a meal at a mid price restaurant. The proteins are pretty good - fish, beef and pork and that is why I am giving 3 stars instead of 1. The vegetables are almost non existent. Why do the entrees have minuscule portions of veggies... I will never order again
