The Monday before your delivery, you will receive a text with a reminder about your upcoming delivery. In the text we will let you a smaller time frame for your delivery based on the delivery route. Although we try our best to be as accurate as possible, some things are outside of our control (ie traffic, weather, etc) and your delivery may be slightly outside of the estimated window. Please feel free to give us a call or text for an updated time. Mahalo for your understanding!

Please note that we are unable to schedule deliveries for a specific time. Our delivery time window is based on many factors such as when we leave the kitchen, the route based on orders received and traffic.  If you have a specific need in regards to your delivery time, please contact us before ordering and we can see what we can do to accommodate your request. Otherwise, we suggest leaving out a cooler with ice packs or asking a trusty neighbor to receive the meals. You can also purchase a cooler bag with ice packs during check out.

Disclaimer: We are not responsible for meals that are delivered and not refrigerated after delivery. If you think you may not be home during the delivery time, we recommend leaving out a cooler that will fit your meals with a few ice packs. Please let us know where the cooler is located. Your meals will be delivered cold and should be kept cold until you’re ready to heat them. Foods left out at room temperature for longer than 2 hours are unsafe to consume. Safety is our priority!

Yes! We offer both one time ordering AND subscriptions. You can create a subscription with any of our weekly meal packs.

Every week you will receive an email with the updates to your subscription. Since our menu rotates, the meals in your package will change. The number of meals will always stay the same. Each week, your items will be replaced with the similar item from the new week’s menu (steak with steak, salmon with salmon, etc). If you like the meals that are in you subscription update- then nothing is needed on your part. If you would like to change which meals are in your updated package, log in to your account anytime before Sunday midnight and change them out for different ones using the drop down menus.

All of our meals are cooked to safety guidelines. As long as they are properly refrigerated, they may be consumed within 7 days. For best quality, we recommend consuming within 4-5 days. We suggest to eat any seafood first. Most of our meals are freezer friendly. Any meals you wish to enjoy later in the week, we recommend freezing asap to lock in freshness. They are best when frozen in a vacuum sealed bag. Or place the container in a ziplock bag and freeze. Take the meal out the day before you wish to eat it and let it defrost in the refrigerator.

Malama means to “respect” or “take care”. We want to do our part by not contributing to single use plastic waste. So we use only compostable, sustainable products for our packaging.

You can customize your meal by ordering a “build a meal” item. You can customize the following:

-Picking the size (regular vs. large)

-Choosing your protein

-Choosing your veggie (or eliminating the veggie if you only want a starch!)

-Choosing your starch (or 2nd veggie for low-carb)

– adding on additional sides such as sauces, tortillas, cheese, etc.

If you have another substitution you would like to do, please contact us and we will see if we can accommodate you. We will try our best! Please just contact us before placing your order.

We only use pink Himalayan salt and only add it to a few dishes that we feel will help bring out the flavor of that dish. We use very minimal salt, if any. Some ingredients already contain sodium, such as the organic chicken stock we use (for example). We try our best to make our dishes flavorful without increasing the sodium when possible, so with that said, most of our meals are lower sodium.

For our labeling purposes, we consider a meal to be “lower sodium” if the total sodium for the meal is 600mg or under. All meals that meet this criteria are labeled as a “lower sodium meal” on the product listing. We have recently added the sodium, sugar and fiber content of all meals to our website, including the Build-a-meal options to help in decision making when looking for a lower sodium diet.

Please note that we are not a registered dietician and our labels and listed nutritional values are for informational purposes only. Please consult your personal dietician for guidance if you are on a very strict diet.
