To assemble this list of keto meal delivery services, we looked for services that are entirely keto-friendly as well as ones with dedicated keto-friendly meal plans or filters. We also consider:

  • Cost: The cost of the service’s meal servings plus shipping and delivery prices.
  • Customization: If it accommodates different lifestyles and dietary needs to provide variety and flexibility.
  • Ingredient quality: Where its ingredients are sourced and the quality of those ingredients.
  • Nutritional information: Whether nutrition labels are compliant with the keto diet. We also prioritized services that feature healthy fats, plenty of nonstarchy vegetables, and minimally processed ingredients.
  • Quality and safety standards: That it uses trusted shippers to handle food products; is compliant with food safety and manufacturing regulations set by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA); lists ingredients, allergens, and nutrition facts on a website or product packaging.
  • Vetting: The services on our list have been vetted to ensure that they align with Healthline’s brand integrity standards and approach to well-being. You can read more about our vetting process.
  • Personal experience: We’ve tested most of these services ourselves and have included our feedback on how we felt about the ingredient quality, flavors, delivery, and more.
  • Is it keto-friendly? The most important consideration in choosing a keto meal delivery service is whether it offers keto-friendly options. Many meal delivery services offer paleo or low carb options, but these are not necessarily low enough in carbs to suit a keto diet.
  • How many keto options are available? While some services offer a dedicated keto menu with several options to choose from, others simply offer a few keto recipes each week. Which one to choose depends on how important variety is to you. You’ll also want to choose whether you want fully prepared meals or delivery kits where you assemble and cook the meal.
  • Does it fit your budget? It’s important to find a service that’s available in your area and suits your budget. These services range drastically in price, from $9 per serving to $15 or more per serving. Make sure to factor in shipping costs as well.
  • Does it require a subscription? If you need flexibility, consider choosing a service that doesn’t require a subscription.
  • Does it accommodate other dietary or ingredient preferences? Check whether the service can accommodate your dietary preferences and whether the ingredient quality is up to your standards. Many options on our list use high quality meats and some organic produce.

The keto diet is a high fat, moderate protein, low carb diet. Most people on keto limit their carb intake to no more than 25 g of net carbs per day. The goal is to enter a metabolic state called ketosis, where your body is burning ketones from fat as its primary source of fuel, rather than glucose (sugar) from carbs.

Keto diet may be advantageous for weight loss and blood sugar management as well as for people with epilepsy, and may also help prevent muscle mass losses that often accompany weight loss.

However, to enter ketosis you must strictly limit your carb intake, avoiding:

  • sugary beverages like sodas and fruit juices
  • carb-rich dairy products, like milk, yogurt, and ice cream
  • cakes, cookies, pastries, candy, and other sweets or desserts
  • bread, pasta, and rice
  • honey, jam, jelly, syrup, and sugar
  • potatoes and sweet potatoes, and foods made from them
  • starchy vegetables like corn and peas
  • breaded meats and vegetables, like fried chicken with the skin on or tempura broccoli
  • carb-rich fruits, such as bananas, mangos, apples, and grapes

Pros

  • Research shows that keto can be helpful for weight loss and blood sugar management.
  • A high fat, low carb diet may make it easier to feel full and satisfied on fewer calories.
  • The diet may help prevent losses in muscle mass.

Cons

  • The diet is extremely restrictive and difficult to follow.
  • No long-term safety data is available.
  • The diet can be high in processed foods if not well planned.

Yes! All of the services on our list deliver keto meals. Some of them have specific keto menus, while others offer keto-friendly meals in other menus.

Factor wins our vote for best keto meal delivery overall. In addition, there are great options for meal kits, including Sunbasket and Green Chef.

You can also get prepared keto meals, from services such as Snap Kitchen.

Factor wins our vote for best keto meal delivery overall. We also love Sunbasket for its keto meal kits, and HelloFresh for family meals where one or more people eat a keto diet.

But you can’t go wrong with any of the keto meal delivery services on our list.

Many keto meal delivery services offer fully prepared meals that are ready to reheat and enjoy.

For example, Snap Kitchen provides keto-friendly meals designed to save you time in the kitchen, earning it our pick as the best prepared keto meal delivery service.

Factor, Pete’s Real Food, and The Good Kitchen are a few other alternatives that might also be worth a try.

It depends. Fresh N Lean offers a large selection of keto meals, which earned it an honorable mention on our list. And it sources high quality ingredients. But our tester didn’t love the flavors of the food.

You can read more about Fresh N Lean in our full review.

The low carb, high fat keto diet is a great option for many people, but it can require a lot of cooking. Using a keto meal delivery service can save you some time in the kitchen, allowing you to focus on other things while still meeting your dietary goals.
