Best thing I’ve ever done
I’ve been using everyplate for 32 weeks straight. I cannot even begin to explain how much money I’ve saved. Getting 6 meals a week for $66 (total) is incredible. I also love being able to choose my meals each week, makes me feel ✨wealthy ✨ lol. It also takes the guess work out of the week. If I went to the grocery store and got ingredients for specific meals, I still have a hard time making them during the week and end up eating out. But for some reason, with everyplate and getting the exact amount of ingredients you need for each meal, delivered to your door each week for meals you chose, I make them every day. Anywho, you have to try it. Changed my life.Show lessTaylor102395
Started Off Great
I have yet to receive a bag of food that doesn’t have something that has gone bad or that has the proper portion size / weight. I wanted to try something other than Blue Apron. At the time, BA was only allowing a maximum of 5 meals. I initially tried Every Plate and even switched to the parent company, Hello Fresh. Every Plate started out fantastic. But, eventually, I started to receive meat portions that did not weigh as it should (the packaging says 10 oz, but it was really 7-8 ounces). In addition to that the veggies weren’t weighing what they should either. Then, the veggies were bad and definitely not fresh. I switched to HelloFresh and experienced the exact same issues. Only now, I was paying more for Hello Fresh. In addition to the vegetables being under weight, I had to peel off, or a cut off, or throw away so much of them. It’s pretty disgusting and impossible to get full if they are not sending the right portions, let alone afraid to eat the found or unable to it it due to poor quality. I am going back to Blue Apron. They now allow 2 boxes to ship, so I am able to get more meals for the week. The meat quality was good. They were just miss labeling the portion size. I actually had a food scale and it was almost always underweight.Show lessVirtually Anonymous
I can’t afford to keep paying for the mistakes
The food is so good so I hate to write this but not once has my box been right and some
Times is late so I end up spending my money budget on this and I have to buy stuff missing or I’m sent the wrong meat it’s like they throw stuff in my box at random and they don’t ever follow the recipes but I’ve gotten six boxes now and the last three boxes I don’t get to pick my food because the app and website is down I’ve tried several
Different browsers and different phones so it isn’t mine and then last week they sent me the wrong food and I finally called instead of the live chat and they told me sorry we can’t over compensate so I had to argue to get my money back because I literally spend my
Grocery money on bacon and mayonnaise it’s been a fight since I’ve
Started so this week will unfortunately be my last and I wanted to keep it so bad but I can’t afford to keep paying for the mistakes :/Show lessmy davorite restraunt
I can adult now.
Wow. This meal kit has changed my life. It says it doesn’t make you a chef but having these SIMPLE meals to cook on the regular has really increased my confidence in the kitchen. Flavor isn’t compromised with the simplicity of each meal and the veggie ones are honestly usually my favorite. I saw another review that suggested a couple tools to get (peeler, good knife) and ingredients to keep on deck (eggs, flour, sugar) but I keep the recipe cards as the weeks go on and truly feel I’m getting a good base knowledge of cooking skills. The app is easy to use, the choice became a bit repetitive but I don’t mind. My biggest complaint is the price does impact, to me, the quality of meat. I stay away from the chicken. But, of three meals each week, I usually select a pork a beef and a veggie and I do like the chicken sausage still.Show lessJaceyj0
Good service and easy app
I’ve really enjoyed EveryPlate. I’m a college student, and cooking for myself has always been a challenge for me because I just never learned how to. Whenever I do cook, I feel like I always have to buy ingredients and produce that go bad before I use them again wasting a lot of money/food.
My girlfriend and I decided to split the cost of a weekly box and it comes out to $5 a meal for both of us which is GREAT. It’s so much cheaper than eating out and even cheaper than going to the grocery store for every meal. You get exactly the amount you need for two servings.
It’s forced me to learn how to cook, and I actually really enjoy it. My gf and I have also really bonded over cooking the food together.
To give some lip service to the bad reviews, sometimes one or two produce items won’t be entirely fresh but it’s not a huge deal and hasn’t really impacted the quality of the meals for me. (would be nice if they could fix this, though) When the food arrives, it’s usually freezing cold and the meat has always been fine.
Overall, it’s been a good experience and I would definitely recommend it.Show lessProbablyNoah
Bring Back the Skip This Week Button!!!
EveryPlate’s service is amazing. The food has enough variety to stay interesting and they continue to add flexibility to their menu options. But the app has been a disappointment and only worsens with time. It’s a great way to make meal selections and changes without having to navigate to the website. But instead of adding functionalities they are REMOVING features. Case in point: they deleted the “Skip This Week” button. I rarely do this, but now, I have to visit the website to skip a menu instead of being able to tap a button in-app. This does nothing for the user. It only worsens my experience by adding a tedious step. If they decide to improve the app’s functionality for its users, I’ll improve my rating. But removing features for your own financial benefit to the disadvantage of user convenience is just silly. Why have an app at all?Show lessGummiWorm09
App is fine; service itself is terrible.
I have no complaints about the app itself, aside from the fact you get redirected to their website to manage your subscription or get support.
I’ve had few issues with customer support; with few exceptions they’ve been prompt to respond to my requests.
The issue is with the EveryPlate service. For several weeks in a row my delivery was off by as much as two days. I had one delivery not even arrive; fortunately I was able to quickly have my money refunded but that didn’t help the fact I then had to shop for food at the grocery store (this defeating the purpose of this service). One time they didn’t include the right recipe cards for my order, but that’s when then app came in handy. I was able to pull them up and cook everything without issue.
The final straw was when my delivery arrived this week. I was missing all of the spices and seasonings required for my recipes. Now I like to cook and cook a lot. I subscribed to this service so I didn’t have to do all the planning and shopping. I have plenty of spices to make up for what they didn’t provide, but it was just one inconvenience too far.
TL;DR They’re less expensive than pretty much all the other food subscription boxes and now I know why. You won’t get all the ingredients and you may not get them in time.Show lessJerseyViolet
Not Worth It
The all is great, but useless because EveryPlate is not. I desperately want to give EveryPlate a good review, but I can't. Although the meals are delicious and the recipes make it easy to prep/cook (especially as someone who never cooks) and the prices are great, every week since I've started, maybe 8 weeks, I've had a problem with the products. Every single week. The first week one of the packets of chicken I got was bad and therefore, unusable. The second week I got ground beef and all of my meals were chicken. The 3rd week a zucchini that came with it was already going bad before I could use it. And every week thereafter I've been missing stuff in my box. The entire purpose of this is to save me the time of going to the grocery store and every week I have to go to the grocery store to buy the stuff they neglect to put in the box. It's ridiculous. They won't even offer you a refund or send you the products you're missing. They just give you a credit towards your next box which is useless because the next box is missing what you need. I strongly urge anyone who reads this not to use EveryPlate. A great concept that they can't follow through with.Show lessamberxmullins
Great for me!
I have thought about this for a long time and finally signed up after a friend did. It is only me so I eat one and freeze the other. If I have 2 chicken meals sometimes make both the same night and put in the fridge for the next night. On nights when I am super tired I can just grab dinner from the freezer. They have all been good out of the freezer. So much better than going to a drive thru.
I love that I can skip as much as I need too. I sometimes travel several weeks in a row. If there wasn’t the skip option I don’t think I would have signed up.
I do buy an extra zucchini if my meal has it. Because zucchini shrinks and there is not enough for 2 meals in my opinion. I usually add a carrot too because I love cooked carrots. Always plenty of potatoes.
It is actually cooking and takes 30-45 min. So worth it.Show lesshard to pick
Great Service, Limited Options
I started with every plate to get into the routine of making my own food instead of wasting by eating out/straining my budget. I love that Every Plate has meals that don’t have a million ingredients and would be pretty cheap to purchase and make on my own. They have also been pretty great!
If I could give their customer service 10 stars, I would. I use the chat whenever ingredients are delivered with defects (has only happened once in 3 deliveries) and they are super responsive and solution oriented.
My only negative review is that this service has very few vegetarian options available each week (1-3 meals). I realize it’s because the list wants to have a little bit of everything, but I would love to see more meatless options in the future.Show lessBetteroffelsewhere
