Isthmus Eats is the best! The meals are fresh, easy, and so flavorful! It’s an extra bonus that they support our community with local ingredients! This Chicken Larb was so good I ate it to fast for a full photo - you just get the leftovers lol!

We love Isthmus Eats! I was so happy to find them at the Mad Gluten Free Fest. We have done delivery meal kits in the past but had issues with missing ingredients and poor quality food. Isthmus Eats can make any of their options gluten free and they use great locally sourced ingredients!

I love this local business. We love the recipes, the quality of the ingredients, supporting local and the delivery system with the reusable bags.

I love that this is a local company, and they manage their preparation and delivery with minimal packaging waste and encourage recycling and re-use of their containers and bag. And their recipes are *GOOD*, healthy and the recipes straightforward and fairly easy to make. Very impressed! And nice to try different things for dinner. Menu choices are varied and attractive.

Best gift to myself ever. Love that we can customize our meals (since we are cooking them) and try all types of cuisine with local ingredients. But also the heat and eat options we’ve tried have been awesome and convenient. Since there are just two of us at home we do two meals per week and it’s perfection. Very happy with this service!

I am incredibly impressed with this service. What really turns me off of other meal kits is the high delivery cost and likelihood of ingredients being less than fresh. Even though Isthmus Eats doesn’t run the kinds of promotions you see with the bigger companies, I’ve found that not only are they more affordable due to delivery being included, but the ingredients are much fresher and more at better quality than any other service I’ve tried. I was also blown away by the “welcome kit” included with my first delivery. The recipe binder is such a nice, personal touch!

I highly recommend Isthmus Eats to anyone local who’s ready to give up on meal kits, like I thought I was.

My only complaint is that I think they misunderstood the “saffron rice” component of the customer-submitted recipe for Turkish beef kofte. They sent a packet of spanish yellow rice mix, and that flavor did not work at all with the rest of the meal (and was also much lower quality than the other ingredients). I imagine it was supposed to be the kind of saffron rice you get at a kebab restaurant. The meat (I upgraded to lamb) came out fantastic, but the rice was not good with it at all. Not worth taking off a star—I still feel like I got my money’s worth, and I didn’t mind making some plain jasmine rice to go with the leftovers.

One more note, re my pics: I purposely made the portions much smaller. My plates were about 1/4 of the entire meal, which was the 2 person option. The portions as written are very generous.

So easy, convenient, LOCAL, high value, friendly, and, most importantly, delicious!! I often have at least 4 servings (if not more!) out of a two serving bag, so meals last - nothing better than leftovers!

Have really enjoyed using a local food prep service. We used another major national one for years and although it wasn’t bad, we needed a little change. This has been a great change! There aren’t as many meals to choose from but the ones that are there definitely fit our families desires. There are a lot of vegetarian options, or you can modify most meals to be vegetarian, which is great.

I highly recommend Isthmus Eats. The ready to heat and eat meals are delicious and the meal kits of fresh produce and items are easy to prepare, with simple to follow recipes. This was a gift from someone, and I'm so glad to be introduced to them..

I recommend Isthmus Eats meal kits for people who are short on ideas and planning time. The meals are creative and healthy. Great for people who want to learn cooking techniques, as each meal kit includes step-by-step instructions.

My partner and I just started Isthmus Eats a few weeks ago, and we’ve been LOVING it! The food is delicious, well rounded, and comes in generous portions. It’s been a huge time saver for us, and the meals are healthier and fresher than what I’d be cooking otherwise. I love seeing all the local farms supplying ingredients, too, and appreciate that this service creates minimal waste. 10/10 experience overall!!

I highly recommend Isthmus Eats. I just started this meal service after ending a different one and am loving it. The meals here are locally sourced, delicious, easy to make and come with a returnable bag and ice pack so there is nothing to throw away. I received a nice binder to keep all my recipes in as well. Highly satisfied!

We're on our third week with Isthmus Eats, and have been pleasantly impressed! The meals have been very good, the directions are clear and easy, and the ingredients are fresh (and many are local!). I had a question one week about a recipe, and heard back quickly with helpful information. Overall, we're very happy with Isthmus Eats!
