The seeded bread is outstanding as well as most of their other recipes. Unfortunately the food preparers seem to be in love with salt. Tonight my wife and I had to discard our “agrodolce delicata squash salad...” because the dressing and squash were incredibly salty. We should have tasted the dressing before mixing. I’m the one that picks up our meals from their Scotts Valley location and I have had the opportunity to request a reduction of salt in their recipes. I was told that most people like salty meals and that it is a fine line to try to satisfy everyone. I believe that customers should have the option to add more salt to their meals in order to improve flavor. Most nutritionists recommend a moderate-salt diet. We love the convenience of prepared meals and their recipes are awesome, they deserve five stars if you love salt as much as they do. I’m giving GRK a two star rating solely because of the salt issue and my personal preference for a moderate-salt diet. We plan to continue...
Read moreGolden Roots kitchen has been and continues to be the highlight of my eating life. Every week on Wednesday, I get to choose from this wild selection of dishes for breakfast lunch or dinner plus a lot of other goodies that I know hands-down I will enjoy. Then on Tuesdays I go and pick them up and the food is always fresh and delicious with amazing sauces and it just never disappoints. I often buy extra soups and put them in the freezer and then always have a crazy delicious homemade soup available for myself. It’s probably the easiest food ordering account that I’ve ever had. It’s super easy to skip a week or go on vacation. Everyone that works there is so nice and customer service is prompt. And, did I mention the farm to table organic gluten-free recipes with vegetarian options to everything as well as delicious meat dishes.
Seriously, my friends and I who use Golden Roots kitchen Have nicknamed them the golden girls because we...
Read moreI recently heard about this place and gave it a try this week. One word - Whoa! I found the website, which is used for setting up an account and ordering, very intuitive and easy to use. Each food option gave a brief description along with a list of ingredients used. Quantities are chosen when ordering, so it's easy to tailor the servings to your specific family size/needs. The delivery was right when they said it would be (it looks like there's an option to pickup in Scotts Valley, too). The food is quite amazing; very flavorful, very fresh tasting, not overly salted or heavy like a lot of restaurant prepared food can be. It's not listed on the ingredient list but I'm pretty sure I tasted some love in there ;). Kudos to a well conceived, well executed meal service. My family will be enjoying GRK meals...
