What are your experiences with home food delivery? The only thing I've ever ordered was pizza, but now I'm interested in high quality meals delivered that I don't have to prepare. I want to make a list for myself. So, if you have a list, please share w/contact info. Also, delivery fees and tips? Does the food arrive hot? This is an adventure for me, it's on my 2018 "to do" list. Thanks!

Restaurant Connection sb and SBMenus are great delivery options. Restaurant connection has CPK and a bit better, but pricier option. SBMenus has a vast option for deliveries, but does lack customer service and occasional wrong orders. But I use the both.

I second those comments. Food is almost always hot and tempting - depends in part on how quickly a driver gets to the restaurant of choice and whether the food has already been sitting for awhile. The drivers usually use a very well-insulated or heated box of some sort. Also, there are occasional small screw-ups like getting mashed potato instead of baked for example. Not usually a big problem. Go ahead - give it a try and enjoy!

P.S. - Ye, tip is expected. And, of course, only you can decide if the delivery fee is worth the convenience. To me it is.

I order whatever, whenever, and wherever I want. The trick is to use your favorite cab driver or two. For example, if I want a steak dinner from Harry's or the Tee Off: Call in my order, ask cabbie to pick up the order and deliver it to me. I often have asked that the driver stop by a liquor store to pick up beer, wine, whiskey....whatever. Easy peasy, and I know the food will be delivered to me pronto, plus I get the booze without driving. Oh yeah, I tip the driver PLENTY.

I have used both, definitely prefer SBMenus (now owned by Groupon) for most. The few times I've had issues with my delivery, they have been quick to fix, usually with a credit to my account for use later. Depends on what you are looking for - Restaurant Connection also closes earlier than SBMenus.

I love Doordash. Food always arrives warm. Website is easy to use and their service is spectacular!
