Tried Namken Nutrition out for the first time this past week and every meal and snack I got was so good! I recommended it to a bunch of my coworkers and family already. The convenience is everything! Will definitely be a frequent customer.
I cannot say enough good things about Namken Nutrition!!! My family has been long time supporters of their Decatur location and I was thrilled when they opened an Urbana location a few months after we moved here! I am a busy mom of 3 little kids and it is SO helpful to have Namken meals in my fridge every week that I can grab to have for lunch during my workday or to have to feed the whole family on those busy sports nights when I don’t have time to cook and we’re on the run! Pop in the microwave for about 2 min and you’re ready! No fuss. All of the food is absolutely delicious — we love the grab n go meals (creamy shrimp Tuscan bowl, steak fajita burrito bowls, smoked brisket and smoked chicken, fall harvest chopped salad, and anything Big Mac are my faves), homemade yogurt and granola bowls (the cookie dough is my fave), protein bars (the sea salt cashew butter and chocolate is to die for), breakfast burritos, protein smoothies (chunky monkey is my favorite), protein coffees, and more!! The daily lunchbox is also such a nice offering. You get a nutritious, delicious, filling lunch for about $10 — comes with a side of fruit — and you can grab a protein coffee or smoothie to go with it! The salmon salad wrap, tuna salad wrap, and bbq pork wrap are my favorites, but they’re all so good. I also keep their frozen breakfast burritos in my freezer for when we have overnight guests and we always get rave reviews! BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY, go in and meet the Namken team! The owner, her husband, and daughter are such kind, good, hardworking people and they have an amazing, fun, energetic staff who go above and beyond to make customers feel welcome and informed!! (Also be sure to give their pup, Avocado, an ear scratch, too if there!) You can tell how much everyone loves being there as soon as you walk in the door. Follow them on Instagram or Facebook for menus, pre-order info, and behind-the-scenes in the kitchen. I hope the C-U community supports them and they are as successful here as in Decatur! Also, if their Urbana location is too far, there is also a PICK UP LOCATION IN MAHOMET!! I take advantage of that weekly since that’s where I live. Check them out! You will not be disappointed!! (Added a few photos from their social media for some examples).
So happy they opened a Champaign area store!!
Perfect lunch or mid morning stop after apts and I always get the chunky monkey shake with protein! Awesome healthy options!!
Highly recommend! Their food is absolutely delicious, and so many healthy options. It's really great for stocking up on several meals to have in the fridge at home or work, makes it so easy to choose good food over fast food. The grab and go items you can get at the store are amazing, a lot of variety to choose from. Some of my personal faves: blueberry lemon cheesecake overnight oats, spinach artichoke chicken casserole, raspberry protein bar and the yogurt/granola parfaits are to die for. Ingredients and nutrition labels are on every item. The staff is always super cheerful and welcoming, too!
I can't say enough good things, definitely would recommend as a weekly food option.
