The best food experience we have ever had by far. I’m certainly not a food critic, or an expert but I’ve eaten at some of Melbourne’s best restaurants such as Vue de Mende, Rockpool, Chin Chin etc etc and the quality of food plated by Marco Dazzan was best we have ever had. In addition, Marco, was our waiter and food orator, providing a background to each meal, the ingredients and method of cooking. He presented in a very professional, friendly and engaging manner, and when he left the kitchen was spotless. For an incredible food experience you would be hard pressed to find a better Chef, and person than Marco.

We had a wonderful dinner for my partners birthday. David was amazing. Highly recommend!!!

Chef Ritchie was phenomenal from the very beginning. His communication was prompt and thoughtful, clearly explaining the menu options while remaining flexible and accommodating throughout the process. The food was truly Michelin-star quality - especially the rosewater crème brûlée, which was unforgettable. Beyond the incredible cooking, Chef Ritchie was friendly, professional, and engaging, making the whole experience feel effortless and special. He also organised a fantastic drink wait staff member for the evening, and together they worked seamlessly, including leaving the kitchen spotless afterwards. We had an amazing night where we didn’t have to lift a finger. We couldn’t have been happier with the experience and can’t wait to book another evening with him.

Chef Claudio is phenomenal. From the canapés right through to the starter and main course, the food was absolutely delectable — and he even worked seamlessly around our own birthday cake. The presentation was beautiful too; he's not just a chef, he's an artist! His passion for food shines through in everything he does, and his professionalism is second to none. He paid careful attention to our brief, made sure every guest's dietary needs were taken care of, and my whole family loved every moment (puppies included!). Beyond his incredible talent, Claudio is also a genuinely warm and friendly person. He makes you feel cared for. You can tell he truly loves what he does — and that joy comes through in every dish he creates.

Is there a maximum number of guests for a private chef service?

While there's no strict limit on guest count, private chef experiences are designed to create a more intimate atmosphere, perfect for gatherings of friends and family. Since most homes have limited space to accommodate large groups, parties typically don't exceed 15 people.

Drinks are not typically included, but you can discuss adding them to the menu proposal with the chef.
