I've been SO grateful for this service!! I've used BistroMD for four months and have lost 21 pounds. Weight loss has been extremely easy and reliable, and I've never felt deprived in the least . Love the cheesecake! I'm not a cook, so having lots of menu choices as well as having healthy, portion-controlled meals is a huge help for me. I find the food very tasty, certainly healthier, easier, and more delicious than I could prepare, and I appreciate the ease of having them on hand and in 6 minutes I'll be eating lunch or dinner. I've had several contacts with customer service - most recently with Emily. She was extremely friendly and clarified several things I needed help with. I agree that this is an expensive service, but don't feel ripped off in the least. I just wish more people could partake in it! I know several people struggling to lose weight who would find this service extremely helpful if they could afford it. For me, it's been a Godsend! I plan to stay with BistroMD even though I don't need to lose more weight. By adding some extra food (eg salad, desert, etc), I'll be able to maintain my weight easily and remove the burden of daily decisions and temptations which has kept me gaining and losing weight for years. As a compulsive overeater, that is true liberation 😊

Really not worth the price. Every meal is a microwavable, and it all comes out looking like the same slop with a smattering of veggies on the side. The snacks are nonsense too. More effort for this price point, please.

I placed an order on Monday, noticed that there was more sodium than I would have liked and emailed to ask if there were other options and if I could delay the shipment by a week. I got a robot reply saying someone would get back to me soon. It’s now Wednesday and I am still waiting to hear back from them but apparently they are shipping meals to my Mom (who I bought this for) and I am about to call my credit card company to dispute the charges and deny the package.

I did not receive a shipping confirmation email for my first order and then when it arrived, the dry ice was all gone and half of the meals had started to defrost. Even the one that were still frozen, when I tried heating them up,were really gross. Rubbery texture, bland taste, and poor quality cuts of meat. This is cheap diet food and it tastes like it. The snacks also had a weird grainy texture. I couldn't eat any of the food and they would not do a refund. I highly recommend not wasting your money on this company! There are lots of other meals service providers that are way better and have better customer service.

Hi Team. Just want to give feedback to your bistro branch here in Asean Dr CTP building. I ordered Bistro Iced Coffee and when I tasted it it was really awful as it was not sweet, so what the 2 lady did was to put another sweetner then still its not sweet then the girl who act as the manager i think commented "ikaw lang yung ganyan ma'am" It was okay if the iced coffee was not that sweet if that is the really taste of it. however the comment of the lady and it was not explain properly. and before that when I asked about iced coffee she directly pointed to the poster well thats fine but did not give me other option atleast. hope you tale time reed this feedback

UPDATE 8/28/24 Vegetarian Chili It's not bad. But the heavy presence of black pepper is needless. Not an entree worth chasing however. UPDATE 8/13 Turns out there was more Tofu that we had room for. And once again, too much of one thing too little of the other. In this case, too little baby spinach complemented by a grain salad with farro, red quinoa and red lentils, finished with lemon herb dressing. We would not seek this one out again. UPDATE 8/9 Just had a first outing with Chicken Mole. it looked stellar but something was missing. There was a whole lot of chicken pieces. Actually, too many. It left one wondering who does the portion control. Much too little brown rice. Flavor, mildly interesting. Back to the chicken. Many breast chunks were very chewy and below the caliber of Indian entrees and others. Most of the pieces ended on the grounds for needy wild things to consume. Too little rice, an absence of kidney beans, raisins, tomatoes-all among the listed ingredients. The slaw: Not crunchy and overspice. Reset needed. We're pleased to report the Honey Mustard Chicken with Herb Roasted Potatoes is a winner. The baby spuds were so good, they outflanked the chicken which could have been a smaller cut allowing for more spuds. ORIGINAL REVIEW There are exceptions but Silver Cuisine-a BistroMD entry-has some interesting entrees. We received 10 entrees today. Shipping was exceptionally fast. It was with much curiosity and some expectation that 'Southwest Bison Meatloaf with smoky tomato sauce' would be a terrific supper. Turns out, while not inedible like some, the meal gets a secure spot in the U-category. U as in undistinguished. Not a regular meat eater, the meat was chewy in spots-not sure why-the tomato glaze was OK but the side of Mango Slaw, yes Mango Slaw also with carrot slivers and cabbage failed to arrest the pallet. After a few nibbles of the meat, we realized what was missing. Potato! We quickly boiled a medium organic Russet and merged it into what was left of the smoky sauce. Helpful. But the Bison entree needs a reset.

Some OK meals are drowned out by awful-tasting meals and poor customer service The website is hard to navigate, so I would regularly get a large shipment of meals I did not pre-select. All of the meals that were omelet, fish or crepes were unpalatable, and I tossed those into the garbage every time. Some of the other ones I got were ok: the meatball ones were fine, turkey was OK, and some pasta ones were fine. When I reached out to customer service to see if they would provide a credit for the meals that I tossed into the garbage, so that I would continue on as a customer and be more selective in my meals going forward, management dismissed my feedback and refused to offer any credit. BistroMD does not care about customer feedback or retaining customers. Avoid BistroMD.

The food is healthy, and not full of sodium and preservatives. I can pronounce all of the ingredients, and have peace of mind knowing what's going into my body. All of my deliveries have been 100% accurate. The ONLY small feedback I have is that it would be beneficial if the snacks containing chocolate were put in the cooler during transport. Excellent customer service from Andy and Lena who I've dealt with. I've had nothing but great experiences with BistroMD!! I've been at it a week this time (I had to pause for a time) and have already lost 5 pounds! 😍 The portions are about perfect even as a heavy set person. I love being able to eat every couple of hours and staying full throughout the day. It takes so much stress off my mind to not have to meal plan.
