Simply Good Kitchen

We discovered this Birmingham culinary kitchen years ago. Shop there every week. The frozen dinners are not microwavable - why would you do that to something that this is this perfectly spiced? Only put them on bake in the oven. Their soups are incredible: seasonal clam chowder, Gazpacho, potatoe leek, (too many to list) recipes that only they make. And that's one of the reasons why if you don't shop there you can't get these delicious tastes anywhere else. Frozen desserts, Middle Eastern salads. - there's an wide variety of pre-prepared foods for takeout. There is no in-store dining.I'll admit I've become hooked on the buttermilk pancakes; I have to have at least one in the morning. I'll typically have one of their soups with lunch. Right now, I'm kind of hooked on potato leek. The service and the staff have become friends - truly lovely people. When you go, ask to meet Danny, the second generation of chef owners - he has taken their recipes to a new level. More good news: their prices modest for what they provide. Admittedly I eat a lot of Simply Good dishes spending money there is a pleasure. . This is a Birmingham gem deserving of community support. When you go tell them "Alice sent you" - get a cookie!

One of our favorite places in Birmingham. I love to stop by on Wednesdays to stock up on dinners for the week - the meals are amazing, so much healthier than take-out and incredibly fresh! I'm always amazed at how each one reheats so well, whether it's frozen or from the fridge. We love to keep a package of the cookies in our fridge as well, just in case! Also, the service is the best. Everyone who works there is so friendly, helpful and sweet to my son when we're there.

Wow! How did I just now discover this after years and years of living around the corner. My first order was today for the week - the burger and ginger lemon cookie was simply amazing. It takes like it was homemade right there and then. I can't wait for my next meal! So glad I found them - cheaper and way better than any meal delivery service I've tried over the last 5 years. When I picked up my order get showed me around the store and gave me background on how everything was prepared/etc. The cool was even off to the side making the meals. What a great hidden little gem!

Always fresh & very good food , tastes like homemade! their veg and seafood dishes , are really well done - and wedge salad w/ blue cheese dressing is great ! Hard to go wrong here - say hi to " Julie " at check out !

The chicken marsala with mushrooms, mashed potatoes, and braised red cabbage is the best. I try other dishes but always come back to this. The cabbage is ridiculously good.

Outstanding option for pre-made meals!! I have had quite a few options, and never anything I didn't like. And a few exceptionally delicious entrees. For a single person, this is almost more cost effective than buying all the groceries and cooking at home. And that's if you're a serious cook. Because I have never made any of these delicious entrees at home! I also pick up my bone broth here. The beef flavor is often in the freezer. And their soups also use this broth. Lots of good for you advantages to consuming it.Highly recommend!

Food is so amazing here! I REALLY wish they still offered cooking classes. Eating the meals fresh out of the oven or off the stove was the BEST. These classes were amazing. Can you please bring them back???

My favorite go-to meal service! If I'm in a pinch looking for prepared meals, the fresh options are perfect. The servings are plentiful, delicious and always changing. The different flavors of sausages are also a favorite! Plenty of gluten free options, perfect for those with intolerances. I cannot say enough great things about Simply Good Kitchen and their employees.

I stopped on the way home from a pretty tense day at work. They had closed 10 minutes earlier, putting the capper on my day. As I got to my car, someone came out to the car and invited me back in to get my dinner. Not only was my food great, but they made my day. How often can you say that about many businesses you deal with?Kudos to Simply Good for having a great local business with (obviously) excellent customer service!

This is the best Birmingham are secret! Prepared dinners! The food is ready to go and high quality. I purchase fresh options for dinner and freeze the rest. The Amish chicken is delicious however they prepare it. Salmon with Chimichuri sauce.... mmm good. Thanksgiving dinners are soooo good. I now just get several of them for the family. They have vegetarian options for our new family 'vegetarians'. Thank you and your team
