I ordered a meal for my daughter through Uber Eats and the food was horrible and cold. I don’t know how this restaurant has over 4 stars.

Excellent all around. The salad was a bit more ordinary, but the kale salad was really nice with a mix of flavors and hearty greens. The jerk chicken was moist and tender, and nicely seasoned. The chipotle chicken might even be better! Small flavorful tender bits all around. The mac and cheese was a bit lacking - with there was more cheese flavor to go around. The beans and rice was delicious. The nicest might have been the plantains; they were really not too sugary, but had a nice sheen on the outside and cooked beautifully. So good!

The jerk chicken and chipotle chicken with Kale Salad + plantain was delicious and hit the spot. Servings were huge for what you're paying for. Looking forward to trying something else on the menu. Thanks for the delicious meal!!

We stopped here for lunch today and it was delicious! We got rice plates with the oxtail, jerk chicken, and curried lamb. Most of the meats and sides for the plates are gluten free. The ginger coleslaw was a standout. There's an adorable patio next door for warmer days and it's BYOB after 5pm.

Food is delicious and very well prepared. I also love that they use compostable containers for take out. Definitely check it out!!

Absolutely DELICIOUS!!!!! I was introduced to their catering service & decided to try the restaurant! Not one single complaint. The arugula salad with salmon was the best salad I’ve had. The staff is amazing! They are currently my weekly healthy splurge!

We hired Fresh Food Generation for an 80-person party this summer. Their catering staff (shout out to Berit!) was phenomenal - detail oriented and amazing at troubleshooting in the planning. The food was also a total hit with everyone - young and old, from Boston or afar. Amazing selection and attention to dietary needs and preferences within a very reasonable budget as well as an eye towards being as environmentally friendly as possible. I am so glad we went with FFG and highly recommend them to cater your next Boston area event.

The food here is very bland and flavorless. While it could've been an "off" day, I wanted to delineate my observations nonetheless: 1. The food is nicely presented. My meal of jerk rice and beans and plantains and a side of Mac and cheese was very well presented and looked visually appealing. The portion sizes were also very hearty. 2. There was no saving the meal from the lack of flavor. Every single item I received was bland and flavorless. There was no "kick" to the jerk chicken, it was under seasoned and dry and was coated with a spice I could not discern but found very unpleasant (ground clove? All spice? Nutmeg?) 3. The accompaniment of the Mac and cheese was not enjoyable to say the least. While it boasted an appealing buttery crumb topping, it was very dry and pretty flavorless. There was no hint of cheese in this dish at all which made for a very lackluster culinary experience. 4. The greens were under seasoned and equally underwhelming. I had to add my own spices in order to make it semi palatable. In summary, I would not order from this establishment again. While they use fresh and locally sourced ingredients, it is evident they know little about piquing the palates of those accustomed to bold and delicious food flavor profiles.

I've been to Fresh Food Generation a few times and haven't been disappointed yet. My favorite thing on the menu (for now) is the burger and fries. The quality of the meat, well done, but still juicy.....and hand cut fries?. Not to mention the price. Thank you FFG for great food, clean space, and amazing customer service.
