Best Matzo Ball Soup Sold on Goldbelly

I know this is probably a long shot. I'm hoping someone here has ordered some or has been to some of the delis listed and sampled some.
Last year, we ordered from Russ and Daughters and gifted those. The recipients didn't care much for it, but it was highly rated online and on Goldbelly. We kept one to taste and it was just sort of okay. The broth was pretty weak. The matzo ball was a bit heavy.
I've been trying to run the names of some of the vendors online to get some reviews. It's a bit tedious.
Thanks for any help!

I know Katz's Deli ships. It ain't cheap, but it's good.

Maybe try Katz and Kenny and Ziggys? Matzoh ball soup isn't my thing, but both of them are good locally in Houston for other stuff.

Thanks to you both for the Katz suggestion. It's not on Goldbelly, but it looks more reasonably priced and there's free shipping for $100. Goldbelly claims free shipping, but it's built into their prices which are very high.
I saw Kenny and Ziggy's on GB, but since it was in Houston, I didn't look at it. I'll take a look. Thanks

Friend,
The three best matzo ball soups we have tried in New York are Sarge’s, Liebman’s, and 2nd Ave Deli, in that order. And if Goldbelly sells their items, it is in that order that I would purchase. Katz’s is decent and if it’s a choice between Katz’s and Russ & Daughters, Katz’s is much better. I have not had a single thing from Russ & Daughters, from bagel to soup to black and white cookies, that I can recommend. I also do not think Kenny and Ziggy’s in Houston is better than an Einstein Bagel, that is how bad that deli is.
Yours,
