6 pm Changes Here

I mean, we love our people, but how is it that we have to feed them 3 meals a day? Every. Single. Day.

It’s a heavy load. Just Table It was built to help carry it. The planning, shopping, cooking, the cleanup.


Real food, made well, every week. Walk in the door, and dinner is handled. All you have to do is Just Table It. ‍ ‍

FOUNDER, JUST TABLE IT

Chef Ali Payne

In culinary school, while everyone else dreamed of cooking in restaurant kitchens, Ali dreamed of cooking for families. Ever since, her experience as a mom, a business owner, and someone managing food allergies has not only shaped what JTI has become; it has made it better. 

Today Ali leads a team of carefully selected chefs who bring that same standard into homes across Raleigh and Charleston.

    “This has made my life so much easier. We usually have your meal on nights when both kids have activities. Plus, I know that the ingredients are all fresh and it is homemade, which I love.”

  • E.S.

    “I think we talk about you at least three times a day about how delicious everything you have made is and how this improves our lives so much. We are very grateful!"

  • James M.

    "Our chef's work in our kitchen has been seamless. The quality has been excellent, and everything has been really tasty."

  • Christina M.

  • Lauren S.

    "I just want say thank you SO MUCH!! When I got home, the house smelled amazing. The kitchen was so clean and all the food was organized so neatly. My 3 year old asked for seconds of her chicken satay!"

  • Jackie B.

    “Literally - incredible. Just sitting down for lunch and diving into the Salmon dish. I actually do not care for salmon but didn't want to say anything because I am forcing myself to try it from someone who knows how to cook - wow wow wow. the mix of flavors are amazing thank you! “

  • Hallie K.

    “Everything has been amazing! We are so grateful to Chef Abbi. The girls are finding good stuff too, even with all of their pickiness. I appreciate y'all so much!”

  • T.L.

    “We are so pleased!!!  Brandon’s food is delicious; he leaves my kitchen spotless, and we are over-the-moon happy!  We have already seen a reduction in our weight, which is fabulous.  He made the BEST filet mignons we have ever had…ever!!!  Last night he made a blueberry bbq sauce for our ribs!!  The reheating instructions are very clear and makes dinners a snap to get on the table.  I really like how he sends the menu over early to review and make changes, that flexibility is really nice!

    My husband and I so very pleased and so grateful that we found your wonderful company!!!”
