Love this service! Have been using traditional food recipe boxes, for over 15 years. No more, though! Tovala’s food is super easy to prepare and just as delicious as when I made our meals from scratch. They get rave reviews from us.

Fantastic Service
I have tried multiple meal services, and this one is fantastic. The meals are super easy to prepare and taste great. Each week they have varied selections with you can select to your preference. Most prepared meal look just like the recipe card. I no longer waste food because I cook just for myself.

Excellent service and meals
I have really enjoyed the meals and service. I've only had 1 issue with something in the delivery today and they were very helpful and immediately gave me a credit.
The food has always been fresh. Meals are quick and easy to make. Some have a bit more seasoning than I prefer, so I just don't use all the seasoning provided. If you like more seasoning though, there is definitely plenty provided.

Tovala is amazing
Tovala is amazing. Their customer service is outstanding, the smart oven easy to use, and the packaging eco friendly and brilliantly designed. And best of all, the food is the highest quality and perfectly delicious. I can’t say enough great things about this company.

I like Tavola and love the oven
I like Tavola and love the oven. Now that I know more about cook times I can use it for many other foods. I like the meals. I've learned not to use all the spice in the packages as they can be a bit much. It's made life easier. I do wish there were more vegetables.

Senior couple feels this service is a Godsend!
We (a senior couple) have had the Tovala oven and service for several months now. It was recommended by a person who administered a flu shot, a single woman. We feel it is the absolute best meal service we have ever had, bar none, and we have had many. I am 80yo, and have some disabilities, including standing for long periods, so cannot cook traditionally any longer. It has been a Godsend. We tried Cook Unity, also good, but you just can't get the flavors and fresh quality from a microwave plan. We also tried several others, both meal kits and microwave options. For us, Tovala's shipping service is near perfect, the condition of the food when it arrives is also, and we marvel at how quickly we can get a wholesome fresh meal on the table with our oven, which has performed flawlessly. I cannot even imagine my life without Tovala now, for as long as we stay in our own home. Our nutrition intake has been much higher with these meals, and the convenience and ease of clean-up is incomparable. Every week I eagerly survey the meal selection, and have never really been disappointed, although like all food, some is better than others. Yet, I rate at least 95% of my meals "perfect". Your life will change for the better when you subscribe to Tovala, do it!

Hands down best customer service around!
I’ve really enjoyed most of the meals I’ve tried. It makes cooking for one so easy and clean up is easy as well. But what I’m most impressed with is their customer service. They are kind, polite, extremely helpful, respond quickly and really put the customer first!
