Vita Kitchen

Vita Kitchen's wonderful family meal service has truly been a lifesaver for us! We were looking for help with meals, as it was very difficult planning dishes and cooking while caring for our newborn. Vita Kitchen's prepared meals provided exactly the right level of nutrition, deliciousness, and convenience. Chef Bekins's weekly menus have an amazing variety of cooking styles from around the world. We tried dishes that we would never have even thought to check out on our own! And the chef and her team worked with us on pescatarian and vegetarian options to suit our family. Each meal comes mostly prepared, leaving the final, easy warming steps to us, usually by just popping Pyrex glass containers with the dish into the oven.Receiving healthy, delicious food every week with minimal prep work has made our day to day so much better. Chef Bekins clearly puts lots of thought and care into her dishes. All of her team, including Chandler, her delivery folks, and everyone else have been very friendly, kind, and helpful. We also really appreciate their commitment to zero waste and compostable packaging. HIGHLY recommend.

After learning about Vita Kitchen on Berkeley parents Network, we turned to them in anticipation for the arrival of a new family member and are so happy to have found this service! We did a week trial before signing on and every meal has been delicious. My entire family (two kiddos 13 and 5 and husband) have enjoyed every meal and appreciate the variety, deliciousness, and wholesomeness of the food. The whole Vita Kitchen team we've interacted with has been phenomenal - from Elyse to Chandler and even their delivery driver who always has a smile, we've had nothing but a great experience. I also appreciate that it has brought our eating out essentially down to zero and that the company also prioritizes minimal waste. Every item is packaged in either glass containers or a few small items are packaged in 100% compostable material. Highly recommend this company!

I can't say enough good things about Vita Kitchen. We've been clients of their meal delivery service for 2+ years and recently also hired them for a catered event. The dishes are a perfect balance of delicious, healthy, and varied - we never get bored and always feel excited for our meal delivery. Sustainability is a core value in our house so we feel grateful that Vita uses reusable containers. I recommend Vita Kitchen to busy people/ families that want nutritious, top-quality meal options from a capable, friendly team. We tried other meal delivery/ chef/ catering services before Vita and they pale in comparison.

I've been getting prepared food delivered weekly. The menu is varied, inventive, and delicious. I'm eating healthier and stressing out less about getting food on the table for me and my family. Elyse, Chandler, and Jason have all been a pleasure. It also feels great to have the food delivered in eco-friendly containers - our garbage and recycling bins are less full as a result.

I've tried it all. Personal chefs, meal deliveries, pre cooked, pre Chopped. You name it. We went on a three month "test every service" out there when I was pregnant as preparation for the intense newborn stage. Elyse took them by a mile. We knew we found the perfect service after just one dish. The food is fresh, locally made, interesting and you genuinely look forward to the menus every week. Vita kitchen was a HUGE part of our postpartum support system I can not recommend her service enough. Fantastic!

Elyse is an amazing cook. She uses healthy, local and natural ingredients. She brings a great, friendly and competent team with her. We have been turning to her for years for our private events and she never lets us down. Thank you Elyse for being such a reliable and steady source of healthy and delicious food!

Elyse and all at Vita Kitchen create delicious, healthy, personalized meals with great attention and love. We turned to Vita Kitchen when I was healing from surgery. I'm the cook in the family and we needed help. The delicious meals, carefully delivered each week delighted out taste buds and boosted my immune system. These meals are not only seasonal plant-based focused but are also umami packed with flavor and variety. If you are lucky enough to receive this crafted cooking, you will feel preciously cared for. In my mind, this is the most special and right choice for healthy and delicious food delivery. Thank you, Elyse and team. I will recommend you to everyone in need of amazing sustenance.

We tried this service after my daughter was born and loved it! Really great food. My mom was visiting and every dish she ate she would say, 'this one is my favorite'. Very healthy and easy to reheat in a way that didn't make it taste like it had been reheated (even the fish!). Would highly recommend this service to anyone looking for help with weekly meals!Oh and great service too - very easy to communicate with.

This is a great meal service! The food is delicious, super healthy and they offer great variety. Customer service is also excellent. If you have tried all the major services (Blue Apron, etc) you will really appreciate how much easier and healthier Vita is.

We've tried so many services - from meal kits to fully prepped meal services. Vita is the only one that replaces home cooked meals. Quality (mostly organic) & freshness of ingredients, super healthy (don't use corn/canola oil), and tastiness! We love to cook, but our busy lives don't afford us that right now. Gives us time back to spend together. Vita nourishes us from belly to heart!
