Lean On Wheels

I love that I am finally able to pay for healthy and tasty food. Until now I would either cook myself or eat out and know I’m compromising on my diet. The fact that they deliver early in the morning is just a bonus!
I order my lunches and 4 extra meals that would make one family dinner.
I recommend this service very much.

I delayed writing my review until I had ordered 30 meals (three separate orders of ten meals each) just so I could have a very balanced opinion of what Lean On Wheels has to offer.
First of all, the meal prep/​fresh pre-​made meal industry is starting to really blossom but there still aren’t many option in the area (save for a few). It’s nice to have a great service providing healthy meals at a decent price for the bay area. Not to mention, the guys who work here are super helpful, friendly, and very nice!
Ordering is easy — go to the website, customize each meal, and add to your cart. Purchase your meals once you’ve added at least ten meals to your cart. Select delivery or pickup. Pay. Very simple. It also gives you a snapshot of your macro-​nutrients for each meal which is very helpful for a flexible dieter such as myself.
The meals are very fresh. That said, some items are better eaten right away and others can be frozen. I find that if I order asparagus or broccoli, it’s best only to order as many as I can eat within a few days since they don’t freeze well and they go bad quicker than some of the other veggies. Brussel sprouts are VERY tasty (they cook them in something delicious because I’m not a huge fan of them normally) and they freeze very well. Peas also freeze well so I tend to order more of those. Zucchini does okay in the freezer too.
The carb options are nice as well. I LOVE the brown rice pasta. They cook it in very delicious flavors.
My favorite meat options are the meatballs (omg, what is in these things? They’re soft and moist unlike any other meatballs I’ve had! And healthy? Can it get any better?), the stuffed peppers (seems to be the same meat filling that is in the meatballs — very good), and the steak (whatever seasoning they’re using is rocking my world). The chicken is very good too but I tend to like the other three I’ve mentioned a lot more. MY boyfriend tried the salmon and said it was outstanding.
I tend to mix and match my meals so that they come out to about $ 10 — $ 12 per meal and that works for me. It’s about the price of a median-​priced restaurant meal. I think the price is the only downside to the Lean on Wheels service as I wish it were a little cheaper (don’t we wish everything were cheaper?)… BUT you have to also realize there is no flat delivery fee and you’re paying for someone’s time cooking/​prepping, the fresh ingredients, the boxes the meals come in, and the delivery (gas, time, etc). AND you don’t have to shop, cook, do the dishes, or clean up after. What is that worth to you? $ 10 per meal? I’d say that’s a very fair price especially for how tasty these are. I enjoy my cooking but even I get sick of my own meals after a while.
Overall, I absolutely love Lean on Wheels. I’m addicted and healthy food is a great thing to become addicted to. :)

My 2^nd week using Lean on Wheels and I’m very happy with the food and service. The food is clean, well portioned, and tastes great. If you live in the bay area and you’re looking for a healthy meal prep service I would highly recommend giving them a try.

I have using been using Lean On Wheels for 3 weeks now and I feel great. All the meals me and my family have had have been delicious. I’m seeing real results and I have so much more time. Time to spend with my family since I don’t have to go grocery shopping as much and cook.

These guys are fantastic. They’re very friendly and accommodating to tailoring their meals to what I’d like (e.g. all veggies vs. rice). They are located outside of Ray’s Built Tuff gym so I only have to go outside after a workout to get their meals. Their turkey meatballs are mouthwatering and delicious. The flavor is great, and they are perfectly cooked. The veggies are a great medley combo and steamed to perfection. Their citrus chicken has great flavor and is often moist and tender.
These guys get an A+ in my book for making healthy eating taste delicious. Keep up the good work, and thank you!

Where do I begin?!! They are absolutely AMAZING! I was supposed to pick up my meals yesterday after 5PM at Ray’s Built Tuff Gym, but was stuck in traffic from 5PM-​6PM and still was no where close. I had to be in Livermore by 7:30PM so had to turned around head back towards the east bay. When I contacted Lean On Wheels and told them I would not be able to make it to pick up my meals, they offered to drive it all the way to my home in Dublin after I got home from my engagement at 10PM in the evening! If that isn’t AMAZING first class service then I don’t know what else! I got home tired and hungry and seeing the truck in front of my house and even a few minutes early put the biggest smile on my face. Thank you Lean On Wheels for making sure I was able to have my healthy meals for the day and rest of the week! You guys ROCK! I will never go anywhere else except for Lean On Wheels for all my meals! Thank you AGAIN!

This truck has always been on point. Perfect size portions and always a good variety of meals. And a perfect healthy alternative after a gym session when you don’t feel like cooking after.

This is a really good food truck and these guys are super friendly and easygoing… they have a variety of shakes and supplements and then also lots of good healthy «food». You will be amazed how great something can taste without all that fat or added sodium, msg, etc., try the turkey meatballs special,. w/​veggies n rice if you don’t like red meat like me… i am taking a star away only because portions are not so big and it would be great for somebody losing weight but just not me «bulking» where I need every calorie. I add stuff dough then not too bad. But i think they are more calorie conscious so there ya go. – ;). Decent prices make this a good place to eat after or before the gym and get your macros in as you get a great ratio of protein, veggies and carbs or whatever you make it… Keep up the good work!

4 stars because I love that healthy food trucks are out and about and these cats are super friendly :) –1 star for lack of vegan protein options. I do wish there was a bit more for the vegan crowd. Maybe some cashews with the veggies, lentils or baked tofu? Don’t get me wrong. the seasonal vegetable plate was great on it’s own. The veggies were perfectly steamed and the brown rice was tasty. They do have lots of options for vegetarians and all of the sriracha!

A food truck where you can not go wrong. Everything is calorie conscious and nutritious. Lets not forget taste great! I received a sample of chicken and they had me. I decided to buy a $ 8 chicken meal, which came with broccoli, asparagus, brown rice, and some of the juiciest cooked chicken I have ever tasted (370 Calories Total). The veggies were cooked just right, and you can not beat a meal under 400 calories when you are on a weight loss journey. Right portion, and after leaving the gym at 730pm it hit the spot. (The truck parks outside of City Sports Gym on Coleman on certain days).
The brain-​child of the operation is a man that is on a weight-​loss journey himself, he persuaded a chef and a fitness trainer to join him on bringing healthy food, shakes, and supplements on the go in a Mercedes Sprinter Van. Not your typical roach coach! lol. They are all very friendly and willing to answer any questions that you may have.
After speaking to them, they also offer meal prep plans. They request that you email them (email address on website) and inquire regarding plans/​prices. It is not advertised that they provide meal plans n the truck (I suggested they do). Cost for 10 meals start at $ 120 bucks, but certainly worth it. I struggle with finding time to go to grocery store, prepare & cook the meals, and finding storage to transport my food to work. (Always missing a lid lol The struggle is real).
Couple girlfriends at work and myself plan to try a meal plan for a week and see how it works for us. I will provide an update very soon!
It is amazing that no one has came up with this concept before, and if they have, I have never seen it.

Health alternative to the regular food trucks, Lean On Wheels parks outside of gyms to offer healthy foods. Work out and eat healthy!!! The peanut butter protein shake is excellent!!! Made ninth almond milk and whey protein!
