Damian (and his parents) were amazing. I wasn't too sure what to expect when he told me his parents would be handling the first couple nights of our service, but we needn't have been concerned. His dad Fabio is clearly a passionate cook and eager to please, as well as a pretty funny guy. They did a fantastic job and I can see where Damian gets his talent! We had reserved Damian's services for 7 days during our week-long family trip, asking for breakfast and dinners each day. He was very accommodating of our diet restrictions, as well as our desires in terms of menu and timing. We pretty much just let him do whatever he wanted within our parameters, so most of the food was Italian with some Spanish/Mediterranean influences mixed in. This makes sense as he is from Italy and Spain and his parents are from Argentina (if I got that right!). So I can't speak to his ability to cook other cuisines, but we were happy with those, so why mess with it? Italian food in my opinion is best when it is done simply but with the best balance and quality of ingredients- Damian achieves that. He makes all the sauces from scratch and it shows. He takes great care in all of his work. Our family takes a trip with a chef all over the world every year, we have been to places in the US, Europe, the Caribbean, and Central America, and and the 11 of us agreed his food was one of our top 3 chefs. In addition, he was always punctual, communicated well, and left the kitchen spotless. His prices were very reasonable, and he even spent less on groceries than anticipated! I would absolutely recommend Damian to anyone looking for a chef in the area.

Giordan was awesome!

Chef Byron was amazing. Not only did he share his personal story he also shared about each dish and why he prepared it in a certain way. He was engaging and respectful. I needed a dairy free and gluten free meal and he created one that was delicious, which can be hard to find! I would recommend him to anyone!

Where do I even begin? From the very first conversation, Chef Patryk was professional, thoughtful, attentive, and an absolute master of his craft. He took the time to collaborate with me on a completely custom menu inspired by the places my then-girlfriend (now fiancée) and I have traveled and lived together, creating an experience that was deeply personal. Every detail was executed with incredible care, helping set the perfect stage for one of the most important moments of our lives. Beyond the food—which was exceptional—what truly stood out was Chef Patryk's genuine investment in making the evening unforgettable. He printed custom menus, brought the perfect tableware, and had an amazing assistant who took care of us the entire time. His creativity, precision, and ability to bring an idea to life exceeded every expectation I had. If you're looking for a private chef who not only delivers an extraordinary meal but also goes above and beyond to create a truly meaningful experience, I couldn't recommend Chef Patryk more highly.

Wonderful experience with Chef Trent and his team. We were staying at an AirBnB for a family reunion and they just made it such a memorable night for us all. Great menu options and importantly very tasty. Will definitely use again ????????

As part of the celebration of our 45th year class reunion, a small group of had the pleasure of having Chef Brandon Rodrigues arrange for dinner for us. Together with his assistants, Nathaniel and Tuk Tuk, we were treated to a wonderful gastronomical experience. The experience was seamless and the setup set an ideal tone for our intimate gathering. Chef Brandon's signature 6-course menu blended creative modern twists to classical local favorites. Beyond the phenomenal food, we enjoyed the theatrical touches to the evening - I won't say what it was as it would be a spoiler - but it made the meal feel even more special. Thank you Chef!

Superbe expérience ! Le chef Julien Lof était très sympa avec une petite attention pour nos enfants qui ont pu faire leur propre assiette de dessert ! Je recommande ++

Chef Marizza and her crew were wonderful. They were attentive, engaging and very kind! They also made the most delicious food and we were all astounded by how great it was! We would love to hire Chef Marizza again! She was amazing and you will not regret it.

We were very happy with Joel’s team, really good food and experience! I recommend!

Chef Rene was amazing for our dinner party, including children. He had great communication from the start. His food was excellent. It was exactly what we were hoping for as an experience. Highly recommend.

Chef James Zitz was excellent and the food was amazing; Would highly recommend!

We had a wonderful Mediterranean meal by Chef Andres! He worked with me on the menu and my preferences well in advance, and he was right on time. The food was absolutely perfect — from flavor to presentation — and the whole branzinos were stunning. He found his way around my kitchen with no problem at all, and I got to simply enjoy a beautiful birthday dinner. The best part is that it was completely hassle free for me. I got all the fun parts: choosing the menu and eating the food. Highly recommend.

We hired a private chef for our friend's stag party on Sunday, and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. The food was delicious, beautifully presented, and catered perfectly to the group. The chef was professional, friendly, and made the whole meal feel like a special occasion. It was a real highlight of the weekend, and we'd happily recommend them to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience.

I hired Oren with a couple days notice, for a very important business dinner meeting. He wrote a beautiful proposal, responding very quickly. The food was outstanding, the presentation impeccable. Oren went above and beyond my expectations. Will use him again for sure!

Kelsi was wonderful. She came in and did her thing, we were able to chill and relax at home and didn’t have to do anything. Each meal prepared was delicious and well presented. Kelsi was quiet but personable and very kind, attentive and friendly. We had a great time and will absolutely be using Kelsi and this service again!

Chef Chi is absolutely amazing. I’ve hired private chefs all over the world, Bahamas to Italy and from Mexico to Napa, CA and she quite possibly is the best. Our family of 10 travelled to Vancouver and met Chef Chi. She was so responsive and easy to coordinate meals with. She prepared dinner for us for 5 nights and offered such a wonderful variety of food. Each night was better than the next. From Italian to Korean to French. She gave us menu options and came up with the perfect menu. We chose family style, and every day she arrived on time, dinner was ready exactly at the time we requested and she cleaned up and left everything better than she started. The house we rented was rough and she made it work.We have kids and picky eaters and she made it all work. If highly recommend her.

Chef Giordan did an amazing job for our wedding night dinner. He was able to make modifications based on our allergies and dislikes. The quality of the food he picked was superb. The steak melted in our mouths and the fritters blew our mind especially with his roasted garlic and herb aioli. It was so flavorful and well balanced. Don’t ever skip the focaccia. It was one of the best I ever had. I wish I asked him what he used in the oil blend because it tasted amazing as well. For the main dish we had bone in ribeye steak, whipped potatoes, and asparagus. All of them were amazing. I wish the potatoes had a little bit more flavoring but they were still great none the less. For dessert he made us a cheesecake that was so light and airy along with homemade whipped cream. Over all the food was outstanding. He left behind some leftovers which was so appreciated. He was very professional and left the kitchen cleaner than he found it. His communication pre dinner was also excellent. He checked in on every step of the process. I would book him again!

Chef Timothy was AMAZING!!! His original dishes were delicious and his service was professional and attentive to details. I cannot recommend him enough. Amazing experience.

We had a lovely dinner with Lorenzo! Highly recommended.

Chef Oscar was amazing. The service was excellent he was on time and patient. Presented all the dishes . The food was delicious, ingredients were premium . Presentation amazing and price was fair. Communication was excellent
