Strengths and trade-offs

Dietlicious

Structured calorie-controlled weight loss plans with every meal supplied

  • Full day meal plans at set calorie levels (800, 800 keto, 1200, 1500) with breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks packed by day
  • No contracts or subscription: order only when you want, with a $75 minimum
  • Up to three meal swaps per plan, plus a Build Your Own Plan tool for full control over macros
  • Delivery limited to Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Canberra and connected regional areas, not all of Australia
  • Plans are delivered as a single upfront box, so a 7 day plan is a $269 or more outlay at checkout
  • Delivery is charged on top of the food price and varies by postcode
Dietlicious reviewVisit site

Youfoodz

Busy households wanting fresh, no-prep meals with a big weekly menu

  • Large rotating menu with 40 to 80 items a week plus snacks, juices and desserts
  • Meals are fresh, never frozen, ready in about two minutes and keep up to 9 days in the fridge
  • Coverage across all states and territories, including a long list of regional centres
  • Per meal prices are not published upfront: you must enter a postcode and pick a plan size to see them
  • Marketing leans heavily on a 12 week introductory discount, so the ongoing rate is hard to judge
  • Tasmania and the Northern Territory get limited coverage and only one to three delivery days a week
Youfoodz reviewVisit site

Your Private Chef

Melbourne households wanting chef-cooked weekly meals alongside event catering

  • Fresh and frozen weekly home meals come from a working Melbourne catering kitchen, with the same chefs behind corporate events
  • Dietary labelling across the menu for gluten free, dairy free, vegetarian, vegan, halal and kosher friendly options, plus a special dietary individual box for complex allergies
  • Repeat orders can be set up at checkout, and pickup from the Caulfield kitchen is available
  • No published per-meal pricing, so you have to work through the ordering cart or request a quote
  • No calorie or macro information published, which rules it out for calorie counting or macro tracking
  • Weekly meals are delivered on Tuesdays only, with orders closing the Friday before

How to read this comparison

Prices
The ongoing price at a typical order size: per meal for ready-made meals, per serving for meal kits. First-order offers and delivery fees are not included. Prices checked 24 August 2026. Confirm at checkout.
Highlights
Green cells mark the lowest published price, the highest customer rating, the largest menu, the highest minimum protein, our highest score, and a Yes where the services differ. A row is only highlighted when every service compared has a value for it. Prices in different units and ratings from different review platforms are not highlighted.
Customer rating
Out of 5, with the review count and the platform the rating is from. It is a customer rating, not our score.
Our score
Out of 100: customer rating (35 points, weighted by review volume), disclosure of macros, calories and a real price (20), price against services of the same type (15), menu size (10), ordering flexibility (10) and delivery reach (10). Where a provider publishes nothing for a criterion, it is dropped and the rest are rescaled.
