My meal was marked as delivered to my…
My meal was marked as delivered to my address, but the delivery driver did not leave the box at the building entry or the usual delivery location. Instead, it appears to have been left somewhere else entirely. The photos provided as proof of delivery were so unclear that I could not even identify where the box had been left.
What I find particularly amazing is MMC’s position that, because the parcel was technically delivered to the correct address, they are not taking any liability. That policy makes little sense to me. If a driver can leave a box anywhere on or around a property and the company can simply say “it was delivered to the correct address,” what protection does the customer actually have?
I contacted customer service expecting them to investigate or take some responsibility, but instead I was essentially told that it was not their problem. For a meal delivery service, where the contents are perishable and customers are paying for delivery to a specific location, I find this unacceptable.
I cancelled my subscription. There are plenty of meal delivery services out there, and I would recommend considering alternatives where the company actually stands behind its deliveries.
Very poor customer service and an extremely disappointing approach to delivery issues.

Melted Food Dumped on the Street!
After my last order arrived half-missing, customer service promised it wouldn't happen again. Today, while I was sitting at home, the driver dumped an open, ruined box on the pavement outside my building. The ice bags had clearly been melted for hours—everything was completely soggy and dripping water everywhere.
Yet the driver still decided to deliver food in that disgusting condition and had the audacity to take a photo of the wrecked box as "proof of delivery." Unacceptable service and a total health hazard. If you don't know how to package and deliver food properly, you shouldn't be in this business.

1 star
1 star. Ordered ten meals. Binned every single one.
I wanted to believe the hype. I did not get it. What arrived looked nothing like the photos and tasted like it had been microwaved twice before it even reached me. Sauce everywhere, meat nowhere. Portions so small they felt like a garnish, not a meal.
The texture alone was enough to end it. Mushy, watery, grey where it should have been golden. I tried three different meals thinking maybe I got a bad batch. Same result every time.
For the price point this should be restaurant quality. It is not even close. I would rather eat cardboard with seasoning on it.
Save your money. Cook your own chicken and rice, it will taste better and cost half as much.
Zero stars if I could.

New meal range landed in the bin
Generally I am a big believer of Muscle Chef, with consistent quantity and quality, overall tasty and nutritious meals. The last three times when I tried the new product range, I was extremely disappointed. I think the person who designed these meals never actually tasted them. This quinoa pesto chicken and the pot pie landed in the rubbish bin. Bad choices of taste mix, texture, overall delivery. I don't think I will every try again.

Hi there,
Firstly, we wanted to sincerely apologise for the delay in response and for the frustration caused regarding your delivery experience.
We can see that you attempted to call us multiple times around the time you had posted this. Our team did also try calling you back and responded via live chat but we completely understand how frustrating this situation would have been, especially without any delivery updates or communication.
At this stage, we unfortunately cannot see that the couriers reached out to us regarding the delay, however we have now contacted them directly to investigate this further and obtain an update on your order as soon as possible.
Again, we are very sorry for both the delivery delay and the difficulty you experienced trying to contact us. We truly appreciate your patience and support.

I wanted to share some feedback
I wanted to share some feedback regarding the menu. I was genuinely shocked to see that out of around 75 different meals, only 1 includes pork.
To be honest, that feels quite ridiculous and extremely limited compared to the variety offered for other meats.
Very bad marketing system.

Well I didn't even get to meal one
Well I didn't even get to meal one. Rang them and left a message, 5 hours later no one had called. Went to the website and spoke to the 'Chat' icon, was as useless as two men short. First thing it did was ignore my question and give me payment options! I then rang again and got the same automated response so gave up. Instead of bragging about you Canstar award on your recording, how about picking up the phone to cutomers?

Hi Axel,
Thank you for your review and we are so sorry for the delay in getting back to you.
We can see the delivery unfortunately failed due to the business being closed for the public holiday. We can also see this was raised with management, and a redelivery was successfully completed on the 23rd of April.
We are so sorry once again for the inconvenience caused and appreciate your patience and understanding throughout this process.

Taste good. Horrible packaging sustainability.
Out of all the frozen meals delivery, I would say muscle chef is definitely one of the better tasting ones but it is also one of the pricier ones so keep that in mind.
The app can use a bit of work - it can be pretty messy to navigate. Most of the menu are either chicken or beef. I usually just go with the bundles to save some dollars and time, but because I can't eat beef, I have to reselect everything again on my own. Wish the app will give me the option of excluding beef to make my life easier when selecting meals.
Can use more pork options. Their pulled pork is surprisingly really good.
Lastly, my major gripe with muscle chef is the packaging. It is very much NOT sustainable despite whatever the website says. After the RedCycle plastics collapse, soft plastics can only go in general bin but muscle chef most of their packaging are from soft plastics especially the gigantic aluminium foil insulated bag. It is so unnecessary as there are already ice packs inside. Major waste every week. I hope muscle chef can revise their packaging and stop making use of large plastics. Youfoodz doesn't use it and their food stay nice and cold. Lite n easy probably the best when it comes to sustainability as they recollect their boxes and packaging every time they deliver. Wish muscle chef can do something like that.

Very disappointed by the lack of care
Very disappointed by the lack of care, delivery and customer service by MyMuscleChef. Yes, the product works however my partner has now had 2 deliveries in three 2 weeks that have been complete and utter messes.
For context we have both used MyMuscleChef at 2 different locations so they have knowledge of where we are and hae the photo evidence to prove it.
First delivery, 3 weeks ago...it didn't even leave the loading bay. It got left there. Solution offered was oh we can resend that box out - unacceptable as no way to determine food safety or quality at that point. Would have been on the dock for 24 hours. So their remediation was they would give 3 weeks free with Guarantees there would be no issues.
So we got 2 deliveries fine then this week. Meant to be delivered Saturday - no communication or notification. Home all day - didn't arrive. Contacted them on Sunday - it was delivered to a completely wrong address and group of units (single vs double story). They sent photos and asked us to prove it was wrong. After sending photos and getting them to reconfirm previous photos and successful deliveries they agreed wrong address. Option was a another free delivery (not worth the risk now, right) or a refund.
So, yes, muscle chef meals are good BUT there is no guarantee you will ever see the food so my advice, just go to the shops if you dont want to have to spend extra money and actually eat for the week.

I’ve tried a lot of meal prep services over the years, & My Muscle Chef is hands down one of the best.
The quality is consistently excellent — real ingredients, proper portion sizes, and meals that actually taste like food (not bland “diet” trays). The protein content is solid, the macros are clearly labelled, and the variety makes it easy to stay on track without getting bored.
From a performance and recovery perspective, it’s incredibly convenient. Whether you’re training hard, trying to lean down, or just want structured nutrition without the prep time, this takes the friction out of eating well.
Delivery has always been reliable, packaging is clean and practical, and the menu range covers everything from high-protein staples to comfort-style options that still fit your goals.
If you value convenience, macro accuracy, and quality ingredients — My Muscle Chef delivers. Highly recommended. 💪

Well, second time unlucky
Well, first I tried the Massaman last week and it was awful mush. I thought I'd give it a second chance tonight with the Thai red curry.....mush. Both times I had difficulty actually finding meat. Both were very disappointing. Won't be buying it again.

screw my muscle chef
EDIT: MMC has gone downhill big time. Absolutely no love in the meals. Little things like chefs cant be bothered peeling carrots. They just get chopped, steamed and lugged into the red boxes. Same with chicken. Its just steamed and some sauce thrown on. Trash. These meals are worth no more than $3-5 i realise now im getting ripped off. Most of the high protein meals claim to have 40-50g protein. Thats lies. The portions are tiny and the actual serving of meat couldnt be more than 50-100g max. With the size and the contents of the meals there is no possible way the high protein ones could consistently hit 40-50g protein unless they were fortified with a protein source and there isnt anything suggested in the ingredients. False advertising on the labels surely. Delivery drivers are morons. Twice in 3 months my order has been left at the wrong house and once in the bin compartment of unit complex. Incompetence at its finest and rubbish food. Im done here.

🚨🚨WARNING FOREIGN MATERIAL…
🚨🚨WARNING FOREIGN MATERIAL CONTAMINATION!!!🚨🚨
Purchased Garlic Chicken Risotto on 06.08.2025. Two thirds through my meal and started chocking. Something was lodged side to side at the bottom of my throat.. took a minute or so to cough this item up to where I could reach it with my long fingers. ( eyes watering/ very panicked) This item appears to be a blue wooden splinter off a wooden pallet over an inch long!
Contacted company and all they are interested in is obtaining the meal ( advised not to supply by food safety authority)
Notified company id would return meals to woolies to then be offered an insulting 25% off more potentially contaminated meals by My Muscle Chef customer service
Who would think after choking on a product that you'd want to support and purchase more!!

Beef Stroganoff with Spinach Fettucine
First time I have tried this brand and definitely the last. When removing the cling film I found myself staring at a seriously unappetising brown sludge. After 2 mouthfuls I binned the remainder -dry, flavourless and gristly. Do you guys actually try the stuff before pushing it out the door? I cannot imagine how this could have passed any quality or taste control.
