After the 2 weeks were up, I had to update my review.Overall experience wasn't good. 1. First and foremost, the food is not very good. If it were a restaurant, I wouldn't go back. I reviewed most items I had in the first post. (space limited). For example, I can make better chicken fajitas at home (see pic). And this is supposed to be gourmet? There were zero veggies (this is a healthy delivery service) - where are the peppers, onions...etc, the chicken and beans were not seasoned at all, very bland, and the homemade guac? huge chunks of under ripe avocado with a little tomato thrown in. It didnt even have the necessary acidity to keep the guac from turning brown before it was delivered, and again, seasoning. 2. Price is too high. The portions are smaller since its a "get fit" option, and there was nothing above average on the menu so food isnt the cost. 2 weeks of the plan is valued at $400. I paid $189 with the groupon and thats about what its worth. Basically what you would pay to eat out is the same cost as this service and you'll likely get better food and bigger portions - although maybe not as healthy. 3. Delivery times are inconsistent. On a good day, it was 10AM, on bad days it was as late as 1PM. The driver was nice, they just need more drivers, she seemed overwhelmed.For these reasons, I will not be ordering from FitGourmet again. For anyone looking for a similar service. Read my review for Plated. Healthy, Gourmet meal delivery service that you cook at home. Think quinoa beets, kale, collard greens...THAT is clean eating.
