What our Customers Say

“If I could give this place 10 stars I would. We were looking for a late night snack but wanted a healthier option. This place is amazing. I got the chicken mixed bowl with the lemon thyme sauce. The chicken is roasted to perfection and super juicy. All the ingredients are fresh--- greens & grains, cauliflower, broccoli, carrots, roasted sunflower seeds, and cucumber. AND--- it is gluten, soy, dairy free, and no refined sugar. We have had it delivered twice and hadn't disappointed. Try it, you won't regret it.” - Mayte C., Sacramento

“Best takeaway option for vegan gluten free (celiac friendly) food that I've found. Have gone back several times and the food is consistently delicious. If you like hot sauce and strong flavors, opt for some of their sauces to dress the bowls up a bit. Plain and simple, it's a great healthy option!” - S K., San Mateo

“So good! I'm newly gluten and dairy free due to GI issues and this place made my day. New staple for sure - Melissa M., Anaheim

“One of the best spots for catering in LA! We’ve ordered 3 times now for team lunches and it’s consistently good, always a hit with our employees and clients. Ingredients are fresh and the portions are filling. Great options for vegan and gluten-free. Highly recommend! - Kelly P., Hollywood

“The food was incredibly fresh, well packed and each individual box was nicely labeled. The flavor of the meats and veggies were so good and tender and the variety of sauces/dressings made everything a 10/10. I highly recommend this for groups who have vegan/vegetarian and /or gluten free eaters - they cater to all of them as well as out meat eaters. It was perfect.” - Anne, Seattle
