While there is still room for improvement, I chose Shef specifically to support local community chefs and try their individual specialties. Excited to try the other dishes soon!

This is such a good service, especially for homesick immigrants who don't like to cook. I love having my comfort foods home-cooked and conveniently delivered to me. My experience with the site and app has also been good, no complaints!
Response from ShefOct 21, 2026
So glad Shef can bring a taste of home to you! That's exactly what we hope for, good food and an easy experience all around. Thanks for sharing this!

I sorry but I need to cancel Shef. I don't have a microwave and I have ruined a couple of your meal containers. Jean Heister
Response from ShefOct 21, 2026
Sorry about the trouble with the containers, Jean! We have reusable microwave-safe steel containers in LA that might be the fix. Reach out to [email protected] and we’ll get you set up before you go!

So far, so good. I’m really enjoyed the meals I’ve gotten. I get six meals each week. This is my second week and each one looks so good. I can’t wait to eat them. My original set was very good also, and I give a 4.5 out of 5 star
Response from ShefOct 21, 2026
Love hearing this! So glad week two is just as good as your first set. Enjoy those meals, and here's to many more weeks of good eating ahead!

We love your meals but warn to check spice levels. Also serving size has gotten smaller, but items selected are of high quality and delicious.
Response from ShefOct 21, 2026
Appreciate the honest feedback! Good call on checking spice levels before ordering. We'll pass along your note about serving sizes too. Glad the quality and flavor are still hitting the mark!
