MIND FUEL MEAL PREP — Restaurant in Phoenix

My wife and I, have been going here for the last five weeks. We have loved the meals. I get the bulk sized meals and my wife gets the standard. We pickup our meals, so we do not have experience with delivery. Gentleman that brings out the order has always been top notch.

The meals have always been exactly what we ordered. The food definitely tastes high quality and even has nice presentation. I love the amount of choices available to us. The veggies are cooked to perfection, even 5 days later the veggies are good(not mushy). I know when I tried meal prep myself, the veggies never lasted.

The meats again cooked perfectly. The meatballs are excellent, firm throughly cooked, tender, and juicy. The chicken has always been cooked properly and juicy.

The sauces are definitely homemade. Teriyaki sauce just sweet enough without being sugary sweet. The bbq sauce had to have taken the chef some time to perfect. It is sweet and flavorful, again without being sugary store bought.

The cajun bowl is great. I love the smokey sausage with the spiced shimp. It has corn chopped and in the bowl, not on the cob like their picture, which I prefer no wasted space.

The tater casserole, is a great cheat tasting meal for me, it reminds me of comfort food my mom would make.

The two desserts I have tried were the peanut butter balls and the macaroons. I am a peanut butter and chocolate freak, so the love the peanut butter balls with a really good dark chocolate shell. However, I not much of a macaroons fan, but damn if these things didnt convert me. I ordered these the last two weeks. They are my guilty pleasure at the end of the day.

Final results, within a month of eating these meals just for lunch, my doctor did blood work and said I no longer need to be on one medication and if the trend continues I can be off the other. My wife has lost almost 10lbs. The price per meal is less than we were spending on uber eats. The food is far better than any fast food option. No wasted food. No wondering what we should make. No wasted time trying to make the meals. No wasted time cleaning up after the meals(wife loves that the kitchen stays clean longer).

For us there is no negative to...

my initial experience was very frustrating. I placed an order on Tuesday for Friday afternoon pick up. I could not place my order without selecting delivery or a specific pick up time. After placing my order I got a confirmation email that was somewhat confusing, listing under my first meal was for delivery, but then stating it was for pick up at my date and time. The other meals were listed as delivery. Since I did not pay for delivery I presumed this was just a default since I only had the chance to select pick up at the very beginning. It also said to expect a second email, which I never got. I went to pick up the meals today at the location I thought I was supposed to and it was closed. I called their number twice and was unable to leave a message. About 35 minutes after my scheduled pick up time I received a phone call from a third party vendor that apparently is the middle man for their online orders. They told me that they had not been able to get a hold of AZ tastebuds nor had they ever accepted my order, it was still pending, so they refunded me my money. This is very frustrating at a time when I am trying to support local businesses and make minimal stops out in public. Fast forward to Sunday when I get a text my meals are ready. I text back to verify seeing that I was told they were cancelled. They did have my food and I was able to pick it up that afternoon. So far just had the tacos and they were delicious. Once you get past the actual ordering logistics online, it's...
