Terrible service, terrible food. I don't know what all the good reviews are talking about but definitely being overcharged for the quality and quantity of the food they deliver

We were very excited to learn about this Halal service, especially after watching all the positive review videos on instagram. Turns out it’s all advertisements. The food surprisingly survived 2 days of transit from NY to CA and arrived in a pretty good condition and was still frozen. But everything that we have tried was inedible, without exaggeration. The meat is low quality and the cooking is terrible. We thought we were covered this Ramadan, but after two days and trying 5 different meal options, I’m sad to say the rest of our order is going to be discarded. It’s really that bad!

What an utter disappointment. I would compare this to airline food from the 1990s. Zero taste, no salt, and absolutely no flavor. My wife signed up for the first order just to try it. So far, we have only tried two meals, and we could barely take a few bites of either before giving up. Both were bland and extremely disappointing.

Awful company, both in terms of customer service and quality. As to quality, we received numerous meals that were unsealed and had leaked food in the shipping container. Other meals had poor quality and cut of meat, no seasoning/taste, and small portion sizes. The meals look nothing like the photos and ads you see online. Now, customer service is what brought this down to a 1 star review. The company never responded to any of our emails advising of the above issues. When we left comments on Instagram asking them to address the issues, they repeatedly deleted the comments. This even happened today on the date of this review. It’s one thing giving grace to a new, expanding business. It’s another thing when that business is actively taking the approach to hide and ignore legitimate feedback and concerns. It’s clear having an honest, ethical business is not part of your ethos. Sadly typical of a desi owned businesses. Overall, I would not recommend this company given how expensive it is. You’re better off buying from a halal restaurant if you have them near you or making your own food at home.

I was a previous COOKT customer, prior to relaunch I was very happy with the service & product, and resumed ordering after the relaunch, but this experience has been very disappointing. The meals now arrive frozen and, even after reheating, are watery, mushy, and lacking flavor. Marketing these as “fresh” feels misleading, especially when customers are instructed to freeze unused meals. The claim of a Michelin-star chef also feels inconsistent with the current quality. The new delivery schedule is another major issue - midweek deliveries defeat the purpose of having meals ready for the work week and make planning difficult. While the meals are halal and convenient, the use of canola oil and overall decline in quality are disappointing for customers seeking truly healthy options.

Absolute disappointment. First time customer ordered food December 27 checking with FedEx delivery date January 2. On the website, they claim 2 days delivery to New York. Just imagine your food is in transit for that many days.

The Korean bulgogi was dry and no taste no salt same for the Vietnamese bang mi. It a disaster, out of 8 meal tried this 3 and te regret so much to have fall for they advertisement.

Subscribed to this service based on the owners story, and what was being promised. The whole company is run on false advertisement, and promises. Compare any meal you receive with the pictures on their website. The ingredients used are sub par, the cooking is at best below average, no flavor whatsoever so ever, they should be held accountable for using “gourmet” even as a word while advertising. Thoroughly disappointed.

I purchased as a hopeful customer, but would absolutely not recommend this company for the following reasons: 1. From the 8 items I purchased 4 meals were not sealed. This means that the meals had freezer burn, because now Cookt is freeze blasting the meals. Initially they claimed they were fresh never frozen, but we received frozen meals that were not sealed. 2. The first two meals, Korean Bulgoghi and Chicken Chipotle were so disgusting, my family threw up. We couldn’t bring ourselves to eat the rest 3. They claim to be halal certified, but are not. Muslim consumers appreciate honestly and transparency. 4. They claim to give back to the community but do not show where or how. The fact that the packaging is not sealed is a major food safety issue!

The spice and garlic are so extreme, I had horrible acid reflux and threw up. I thought western dishes meant not spicy food, but instead they’ve put South Asian-levels of pepper and chilis in everything. I feel like I have to throw away the whole order.

Terrible. It’s a scam The food had no taste at all, and it felt like you just tossed in a couple of thin, raw slivers of meat under the name of ‘halal.’ I couldn’t even chew them—they were completely uncooked. No one should buy this food.
