I’ve ordered hello fresh nearly every week for the last 3 years. Order accuracy has gone down in the last months, coincidentally since around the time pricing was increased. Meal cards are missing at... See more

Recipes make some assumptions

The recipes make some assumptions like not including temp of oven or deseeding tomatoe before chopping. I am trying to get my husband to cook more and these details are essential. We received one cucumber that was starting to decompose. I will say the they immediately provided us with a generous credit which was greatly appreciated!

The recipes are amazing but I have to…

The recipes are amazing but I have to replace at least a third of the vegetables that come with my box every week. Carrots that I can bend in half, mushy gross tomatoes. I don't even get the things with mushrooms anymore because they're always slimy and smell like fish. Such a bummer because it's really a great idea and the recipes are really very good. I wish they could get it together.

I have been using Hello Fresh for years and have been very pleased. It would be nice to be able to substitute sweet potatoes for the white potatoes for the oven fries, it very rarely is an option. Also, whenever Pico is available, it would be nice to include cilantro

Late deliveries

Everything was going well for the last 3 months. A couple if spoiled fresh produce items but nothing significant. But the the last couple weeks our deliveries have been really late. 1 week it was 4 days late. When ordering 6 nightly meals, that doesn't work out when the next one then comes on time. Not enough days to cook all if the meals. I'm considering canceling my account over this.

Delicious food, delivery issues.

The food itself is delicious (high calorie) but delicious and it’s been so easy to cook and not really think about what’s for dinner postpartum for us. However, our delivery was late and our gel packs were completely defrosted. Which resulted in 1/2 -1/3 of our meat being either warm or room temperature for who knows how long in a hot delivery truck.
I’d give 5 stars if there was any way to make sure that didn’t happen again.

I love the recipes and food quality

I love the recipes, the ease of shipments, and the quality. I don’t like that they choose the food for you if you don’t build your box. I’m allergic to tons of food, that doesn’t work for me. If I forget to build a box, that’s on me, skip that week. It’s my fault.

We are generally happy with the meals we have received. However, there have been a few issues with the quality of the produce. And occasionally the absence of an ingredient.
The panko was missing on our most recently order. Difficult to make a pankco crust pork chop with out it.
I have replaced the recent tomatoes with my own. The ones with the meals were very very pale.

Great so far!

Great so far! I'm new to this, only 3 meals in, and they were all delicious!! Perfect for cooking for one or two, saves a lot on food waste, and great for trying new dishes I'd probably not think to cook!

Never ordered Spicy Food

I am being sent items I didn't order-a Spicy meal. I tried to canceled the order & wasn't able to. I never put down that I eat spicy food. Eventually they didn't read my requirements.
