Customer Reviews

I don't like to cook, so I have Harvest Kitchen do the cooking for me. They do a wonderful job. The meals are healthy, well-balanced, and delicious. Some of my favorite side options are the blueberry muffins, Harvest Kitchen big salad, seasonal quiche, and pecan pie brownie. It’s really easy to order food and I use their delivery service.

Really good food! Local, fresh, in season, often from local organic farms. I get lovely meals for my family and I don't have to dice onions or scrub pans. I've ordered from Harvest Kitchen for several years. The menu has plenty of variation, so I am always delighted and never bored. Recent faves include the buttermilk chicken, lemon cod, veggie quiche, and beef stew.
