Have I been arrested for a crime that I didn't commit? I mean why am I being subjected to this prison food. Granted I came here of my own volition so I guess that's a crime that I did commit. Portions are small. And this is coming from someone who rarely finishes a bowl of pho and usually takes half her entrees to go. Small can be forgivable. But these portions are also... oh, how do I put this lightly... shockingly un-delicious. You can't have both. Either be bountiful and shitty tasting. Or be delicious and small. (oh hi honey... no, not you. Never you!) I LOVE the concept of Made Foods and really wanted this to be on the rotation as it would be fantastic for those busy nights. So we gave it a good college try and bought several portions for about $90. (Seriously. $90. Someone should be arrested here.) And several portions turned out to be... 6. Yeah, so value this is not. We tried it for lunch one day and Mr. Anastasia had to eat two portions. He was furious. First, because they were bland. And then because he had to endure a second one just for the semblance of full. So that's about $30 of un-deliciousness under duress without any real prison lovin'. And lastly probably because I called him Mr. Anastasia. Let me put it to you another way, we received a card in the mail to try a free meal from the Made Foods by our house and just threw it away. Or did we eat the postcard? Either way would be a better experience. Have I actually been in a prison? Well, no. But I've seen enough shit go down during chow time on Prison Break. And Orange is the New Black. Oh and that Oz phase. So I'm pretty much an expert and I declare: If you lack taste buds and got money to burn, come here. (But literally taking a torch to cash might be more fun and fulfilling. You've been warned, fish.)

We spent $40 on two salmon "meals" and we were unbelievably disappointed. The container was small and was only filled halfway with two tablespoons of quinoa, 4 chives, 6 green peas, 2 pieces of cilantro, a few pieces of shrivelled up spinach and literally ONE piece of Kale. The salmon was a super tiny slice and so dry that I had to choke it down with large amounts of water. For the money I was disgusted that they could get away with charging so much money for such a tiny amount of poor quality food. I would NEVER order from here again and would NOT recommend anyone waste their money here. It is better spent at Freshii if you need a healthier take out option.

Ridiculously expensive and the portions are very small. The salad had one cherry tomato. One! The soup was very bland. The portions of protein also leave something to be desired. I like the concept of healthy food that is locally sourced, but the price to accommodate a dinner for two is simply not economical. I was told that the reason their food costs more than other similar take out places is due to the locally sourced vegetables and protein. As someone who has no problem spending a little more money on food if it helps to support the local farmers, ranchers, and growers (and I regularly do so) I will acknowledge that the food often costs more than the grocery store. However, it does not cost what Made Foods is suggesting. The meal I could make at the market for the price of this dinner would be huge, flavourful, and most satisfying. Why would I bring this home and dirty my own dishes when I could go out to a restaurant that also locally sources their food? My husband and I would much rather leave a restaurant satisfied with the portions and flavours while spending the same amount than take this home and have to deal with the containers and dishes (not that washing cutlery or the pot to heat the soup is a big deal, but in relation to a full dining experience neither of us can justify this place) and still be unsatisfied with the flavours and portions. Or, we'll just stick to shopping at the markets and locals around the city and make a glorious feast for ourselves. One star for the concept. Another star for pulling together food that is healthy.
