Chef Anil provided a fantastic Dinner for our Birthday Celebration. Our guests were very impressed at the meal that was served, which all tasted fantastic and was served as we were ready, allowing us to enjoy the experience at our own pace. The kitchen was spotless after they left, which made for a relaxing evening with our company. Chef did accommodate some special requests for the kids that were present and was able to work around nut and gluten allergies, however there was one minor cross contamination. We would definitely use Chef Anil again and had a great overall experience.

Our dining experience with Take a Chef was wonderful. Anil made great food and was engaging and interactive. We loved chatting with him. Especially good was the amuse bouche, which came in a little wooden box filled with shells and stones. It was surprising, inventive, and delicious. I would definitely recommend this experience to anyone who wants a night to remember.

Chef Anil and his partner far exceeded our expectations. They were polite, kind and amazing chefs. This duo made our night amazing!

This was our first experience and Chef Anil made it a memorable one. Thank you and we will recommend him to our friends and family.
