The food is pretty good and fresh. The portions are satisfying and a great way to teach your body about portion control. Some meals are better than others, but you have the option if you don't like a meal, to remove it which I think is great and demonstrates BistroMD's great customer service. Customer service also is friendly and always replies promptly. The choices and variety keep you motivated. The cost is also reasonable.

Great food, nice sized portions, easy to select your weekly meals!
I needed help making better food decisions. I know what's healthy for me, but I never bought those things at the supermarket. Pastas, breads and sweets were staples in my diet, but Bistro MD changed all that with its vegetable and meat-heavy dishes. After 4-weeks, I am feeling better about myself. I drink more water now, I'm not craving food all the time (in fact, I sometimes have to remind myself to eat) and I genuinely enjoy my entree options. I would recommend Bistro MD to anyone who needs a good kick in the pants with regards to better eating habits.

Overall, pretty good, and apparently just what I needed
Customer Service: So far, customer service has been pleasant and responsive. I've communicated mainly via email, and have had all of my questions/issues addressed.
Delivery/packaging: Food arrives solidly frozen, with no damage to the packaging of the individual meals. I'm able to re-use/recycle the cardboard boxes, but finding a home for the coolers has proved more difficult.
Food: All of the food is well-prepared, whether I personally like the entree. I have been on the program 5 weeks, and have been happy with, or really liked, about 85% of the entrees. I have eaten a number of foods that I've never tried, or wouldn't normally eat regularly. For me, it is convenient to just pull out the entree and heat it up - no figuring out where to go for lunch, what to eat, etc. The portions are on the large size, so I am typically full, or close to full, after every meal. Combined with a new exercise regimen, I believe these meals are helping me to reach my goal.

Food Good to OK, Web site sucks, Shipping is a problem, difficult to set your service
Food is pretty good considering it is frozen. 2 or 3 meals I hated, most I like, some I like a lot. The breakfasts are particularly good. I am sick of chicken breast at this point, but I find their sauces to be pretty good. I have found the web site to be difficult - twice I thought I put a hold on as the web site told me and it was not so. I have too much food now. Can't change the credit card online, have to call. East coast time of the company makes it hard for me to call. The shipping is problematic. Huge styrofoam that will not fit in my garbage can, I am putting it in the recycle as I hope it really can be recycled. Comes with dry ice that they warn you not to touch, but bag is always split open and I end up touching it. Have had one meal pop open in shipping. I am not losing weight, but have an extremely busy schedule this semester, so keeping the service for now. No doubt getting better nutrition, but wonder about the vegetables, if they lose all their healthy vitamins in the frozen process.

A wide variety of excellent quality food.
Bistro MD has met my expectations, by providing various healthy options with the ability to personalize my menu. I'm definitely a fan.

not as good as I would have hoped
most of the dishes are good. there are a few that are horrible but the main problem is the weight loss is not there.

Yum yum
We tried two other diet delivery systems and this one, although a little more expensive, is excellent. We enjoy most all the meals and have had a dislike for two. That is two out of 40 meals. Not bad. This system differs because it does not require any extra supplements (fruit, cheese, etc.) that one must buy; and the vegetables are wonderful. They are not tough and inedible, but tender, julienned, chopped, pureed, mixed with tabouli, get the idea? And the food is tasty. Yum

The food is delicious, healthy and I don't have to cook!
I have been using BistroMD to deliver my food for 3 years now. I lost more than a 100 pounds and went from size 22 to size 8. I have struggled with my weight all my life and have a very complicated relationship with food. I am a busy professional, I live alone and do not enjoy grocery shopping or cooking. A friend recommended Bistro (her husband was on the program) and for the first time in my life I was able to stick with a weight management program. The food arrives every week and I just label the boxes and place them in the freezer. I take my lunch to work, heat it up in the microwave. In the evening, when I get home usually late and tired, it is a matter of taking my dinner out of the fridge and heating it in the microwave. I remove the food from the container, serve it in a plate, and eat it at the table with real silverware (quite civilized). The food tastes good and is varied. I like some entrees better than others, but that is the way it would be in a restaurant or if (Good forbid!) I cooked them myself. All in all, I am very happy with this program. It has changed my life!
