EXCELLENT 17 reviewsPosted on Megan FarrJune 5, 2025 WOW!!! 🤯 This home cooked meal from Sara Kep’s kitchen is fantastic!! It’s hitting the spot as I’ve been down and out with a broken foot. Flavors are fantastic— and what a blessing that I don’t have to cook and do the dishes. A HUGE THANK YOU SARA!!!Posted on Tack mowdyJune 3, 2025 recently tried the new vending machine out front and can say I am very happy with it. Tried the key lime bar and the Italian sub. Both were amazing and at pricing you cannot beat. Will be my new daily lunch spot 😋Posted on Shykind FamilyDecember 16, 2024 An absolute pleasure to work with. Sara catered a private event at our home for 30 people several months ago and this week a birthday party for 6 guests. The quality, taste and presentation of the food was impeccable. She is a highly skilled chef and has an eye for detail. She worked with us to create fabulous menus. Both events were completely different; the large event was buffet style and smaller event a served multi course dinner. We highly recommend her!Posted on Kelsey WetheraldAugust 7, 2024 Sara took all the stress out of meal planning this week. The food was delicious and fresh and easy to take to work! Well worth the moneyPosted on Janice HauverMarch 4, 2024 Sara Kep's Kitchen has been a staple of our family's meal weekly meal planning for more than 6 months. We appreciate the portion sizes and the variety but most, her attention to detail when we make special requests. For example, one person in our household is allergic to kiwi. It was an ingredient in fruit salad one week and we knew we could trust that our fruit salad was prepared separately (so no kiwi or juice even touched our food). We have had 2 order errors but they were both corrected swiftly and we were more than happy with the result. Our family also asked if we could order a "special project" -- a Thanksgiving charcuterie board for the Thursday and the Friday night shifts at FC Animal Control. Sara put together a gorgeous, overflowing board AND a container of "refill" items so the tray would stay full for these essential workers that had to be at their jobs on a holiday. We can see ourselves using her services for a long time into the future. Tasty + easy prep + reasonable cost = repeat customers!Posted on Jeanie CroninJanuary 31, 2024 Dinner was delicious. We have loved all the dinner meals that we’ve had.Posted on Jamie FraunhofferJanuary 31, 2024 Every single dish is outstanding!!! Appreciate the convenience of home delivery!Posted on Randy SheridanJanuary 22, 2024 I have tried many meal delivery services to help make weekday meals easier on our hectic schedule. The difference with those mail order services and Sara Keon’s, is Sara food you actually look forward to eating. The meals all taste amazing, huge portions and even include a dessert. Far and above an amazing service. I would give them 10 stars if possible. Highly recommend.Load more
