Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Looking at 33 reviews, most reviewers were somewhat happy with their experience overall. Many customers appreciate the ease of preparing meals and the clear, simple recipes provided, which helps take the stress out of cooking. Reviewers often find the flavors of the dishes to be great and enjoy the variety of choices available, including options for vegetarians. The convenience of having ingredients delivered to their door is also a significant positive for many. However, some people were dissatisfied with the quality and quantity of ingredients, noting that portion sizes have decreased over time and that produce is not always fresh. There are also frequent complaints about missing items, incorrect ingredients, or recipe cards, which can be frustrating. Delivery issues, such as late arrivals, damaged boxes, or items not being properly refrigerated, are also a concern for a segment of customers.

Greens were not as fresh as I expected and garlic was soft. For the cost of four meals for two, quality was not present. Flavours were great though.

I do not recomnend them anymore.

Dinnerly has greatly changed over the few years I used them. They definitely increased variety of dishes.
However, they quality of products dropped quite a bit, often sending non-fresh greens, weathered veggies.
The volume of produce in recipes has drastically reduced - early days their meals for two always fed the crowd of four or split the dish in two meals intakes for two. These days they dish for two feeds me once - ALONE.
I gave them feedbacks on multiple occasions - be it inferior quality of ingredients, loss of ingredient or overall negative due to selection of supply. But nothing has improved.
Now, they even send shakshuka ingredients without key product of the dish - THE EGGS!!!
I would definitely not recommend Dinnerly anymore.

2 of 3 meals spoiled no response

Last week (25 Aug) two of three meals spoiled meat in the fridge within 3 days (second time in a month, last time got sick and vet bill $300 for one piece given to my doggy).
No response for 1 week now.
Seeking refund for inedible meals but can’t even get any email response.
Haven’t cancelled yet since I am sure they will not refund me if I do.
Given they are uninterested considering going straight to consumer affairs…any suggestions? The general public needs protection against the poor quality and lack of interest in customer welfare!

Cancelling dinnerly is like cancelling a gym membership

I joined out of curiosity and then cancelled minutes after realising I wasn't interested. I was still charged for a box of food. Then I was told even though I cancelled my subscription minutes after creating my account that I was still required to email them specifically according that I didn't want the box. Then they proceeded to show me where they hid it in their terms and conditions

I would put a zero if i could

I would put a zero if i could. I have been buying Dinnerly for about 4 years and was generally happy. However last Saturday my delivery was not loaded and the driver told me it would be delivered on the Sunday. It was not. I sent a support enquiry and did not hear back. On Tuesday the box turned but the meat was no longer refrigerated. As we are in winter this can only mean my box has been lying around somewhere for 5 days. This is disgusting customer service and you basically expect people to poison themselves with meat unsuitable for consumption. I will never buy from Dinnerly again and will put in a complain with the consumer watchdog

The food has been great

The food has been great. It’s not expensive. We don’t have any leftovers which is great. There has been times we have added a couple of extra things to make the meal a bit larger but most of the time no issues at all love the food so easy to cook doesn’t take much. We are very happy.

A Good Food Partnership ( Dinnerky & I)

I had hesitation signing on a couple months back, but I have since been truly happy since the beginning. I am saving money on groceries and no waste of having excess vegetable. I am busy with my job and at times work.late until evening and when I get home I want something quick and easy and thinking what to have for dinner has eased and the variety of cuisines help then trying to think what takeaway joint should I go though hit always end up getting the same quick fix which can be boring. And I don't have to drive around. Also my boxes work out cheaper than getting one takeaway meal at times. Also I'm finding the portions are well sized for me so I'm not overeating or overloading on the calories and can see a drop in my weight. So thanks Dinnerky and I'm a believer in saying credit where credit is due (hence my taking of time to right a positive review)

Gave it a try - it was worth the effort.

I was a bit sceptical about trying this way of getting meals but I have been super impressed with ‘Dinnerly’. The quality of vegetables is top class and such detail with all extra spices etc needed to make the meal is outstanding. Yes I am very pleased we took the option and ordered from this impressive company.

I had missing ingredients in every box

I had missing ingredients in every box, with a refund, on complaining, that didn't cover the cost of replacing let alone the inconvenience. Things like "Japanese Dressing" essential for the Japanese Curry, alongside main ingredients missing consistently. Very disappointed.

Do Not Order

Would not recommend, yes they are slightly cheaper than other services however the savings is not worth the lack of quality and customer service! I was ready to cancel after the first week upon receiving spoiled produce but thought I would give them the benefit of the doubt, second box I received what seemed to be ingredients for a meal not selected, third week missing ingredients and spoiled produce and the final straw was receiving a box with no meat at all and extra spice packets as a substitution? The solutions were always copied off a script and not actually addressing the issue with a few emails even addressing me by the wrong name. I would rather pay the little bit extra and receive edible food, items that have been ordered and decent customer service!

I didn't recieve my order

Like many others I didn't recieve my order. I used the property pin and got an sms saying all was fine and my order would be coming the next day. I called CS after 6.30pm when I still had no order and no communication from the delivery person. After following up the next morning I was finally told they dont deliver to my area....surely they knew that when they took my payment. I asked for a refund and got no reply from 2 further emails. Luckily I had paid through PayPal and they refunded my money. I highly recommend avoiding this company!

It's amazing how quickly Dinnerly can respond to these reviews but do not respond when you have an issue with your order or refund.

Hi Joe, thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We're genuinely sorry to hear about the issues you faced with your order and the lack of clear communication regarding delivery to your area. This is certainly not the standard we aim to uphold. Recently, we have unexpectedly experienced an increased amount of customer requests. Rest assured that we have onboarded new team members so you don't face such a delay in the future. We understand how frustrating it must have been to receive confirmation, only to later find out that delivery wasn't possible—especially without prompt updates or support. Your feedback highlights an important gap, and we’re actively working to improve our systems so situations like this don’t happen again. While we’re glad PayPal was able to resolve the refund for you, we truly regret that we didn’t respond in time. If you’re open to giving us another chance in the future, we’d love the opportunity to make things right. You can always call us at 888-267-2850 Monday through to Saturday, chat with us at www.dinnerly.com, or email us at hi@dinnerly.com. Thank you again for your feedback. Kind regards, the Dinnerly Team.
