Thanksgiving To-Go in Orange County: Whole Foods or Marie Callender's?

We're thinking of Whole Food or Marie Callender's for our Thanksgiving Day meal. Does anyone have any thoughts on these? Any other recommendations for pre-cooked meals in South Orange County? Thanks!

    Try Zov's

      If M/C is on your radar screen, why would Whole Foods or any other qualitative name even be an option?
      M/C has not done anything good in about a million years, give or take!

        I'd also consider Lucca in Irvine. They're doing a to-go menu on T'giving. I have not had their T'giving turkey meals, but based on the strength of the dinner we had there last week, I would feel good sending you there.

        EDIT - it might be too late. I think you missed the deadline for pre-ordering T'giving day meals. Call and confirm, though.

          Consider Mimi's. We've been getting our dinner from them for several years and it's very good.

            I like Lucille's. Marie Callender's is going to be basic old school, while Whole Foods will be maybe a bit more upscale, and probably more expensive.
