We started with three founding partners — restaurants and chefs we know, trust, and eat from ourselves. We're adding more, but carefully. Every kitchen we bring on is one we'd send our own family to.
Local kitchens deserve better than what the big delivery apps take from them. We built DinnerSolved to actually work for the people cooking your dinner — fair terms, no games, no extractive middleman routine. When our partners grow, we grow. That's the deal.

Yes. Pick tonight, a few nights, or every weeknight in a single checkout — up to a week in advance. You can swap or cancel individual nights anytime up to the noon cutoff that day. We call it Dinner Autopilot.
No subscription, no monthly commitment, no automatic charges. Order one meal for a rough Tuesday, plan out the whole week, or skip us entirely for a while. You decide, week by week — that's kind of the whole point. We're here when dinner is hard and out of the way when it isn't.
Delivery apps solve the "I want food now" craving — individual portions, quick delivery, and fees that push the price up fast. DinnerSolved is built for the planned family dinner — family-sized portions from vetted local kitchens, preordered in advance, picked up on your way home. For a family of four, it's typically meaningfully cheaper and predictably easier.
Family meals are priced per meal (not per person) and feed a family of four — typically $50–60 depending on the dish. No delivery fees, no upcharges, no surprise math at checkout.
Meal kits still require cooking — you're unboxing ingredients, prepping, and standing at the stove for 30–45 minutes. DinnerSolved meals are already cooked by a local kitchen. You pick up, serve, and eat. Same price range, zero effort.
Net-new revenue during your off-peak hours with a 15% take rate (vs. 30%+ on delivery apps). You cook only what's been preordered, so there's no waste and no delivery logistics. Apply here.
Pickup-first to start — it keeps prices honest and kitchens profitable. Delivery is on the roadmap for select areas once pickup density is established.
