Chef Nate made a beautiful and delicious dinner. We really enjoyed the experience and would do it again!

Chef Nate was amazing! We loved every single dish he made. He allowed us to really collaborate on the perfect menu. He was very generous with food portions. The flavor and cooking of each dish was spot on. He also was just a genuinely kind person. We would definitely request him again and were very impressed with the entire evening!

Nate was fabulous. He was easy to communicate with leading up to our reservation and was punctual. The food was incredible- best meal of our time in Canmore. He was so nice to accommodate the kids requests and each dish was delicious. Generous portions and his presentation and clean up was impeccable. Would book with him again and highly recommend.

We hosted an anniversary dinner for our parents hosted by Nate, and it was an incredible experience all around. He had a variety of menu options (we went for an Italian-inspired surf ‘n’ turf selection) and all dishes were delicious and presentable. Nate is very friendly and a true professional at what he does, as well as does an incredibly thorough and quick clean-up once finished. We would be happy to hire him to cater a meal again, and it was well worth the price!

Our family hired Chef Nathaniel to help us celebrate a birthday, and he prepared an amazing meal for us! He was accommodating of our dietary needs and easy to work with throughout the entire experience. The menu offered a great variety (we went with Italian food) and every dish had good flavours with generous portions that were larger than what you’d get in a restaurant. Nathaniel was kind, soft-spoken, and professional, and he left the kitchen exceptionally clean. The experience was really seamless and fun and we’d absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a wonderful dining experience!

Nate was amazing! The food was delicious. He served us and cleaned after. All in all, would recommend!

Out of our entire wonderful weekend in Canmore, dinner prepared by Nathaniel was one of our favorites. Nathaniel is a talented chef who prepared a wonderful multi course meal for us AND ensured it was 100% gluten free. He not only prepared delicious food, but also took care of all prep and cleaning so we could fully enjoy our night uninterrupted. If we are ever back in town we will 100% book Nathaniel again and recommend him to all family and friends. Thank you for an unforgettable evening!!

Chef Nate was great and made for a memorable family celebration

Chef Nathaniel was incredible. The food preparation and quality was excellent and every bite was enjoyed thoroughly. His presence was respectful and he had a nice demeanor. He cleaned up spotless and left the area more cleanly than it was before he arrived. Highly recommend.

Chef Nathaniel was everything we could hope for in a chef. Delicious food and professional.

It was great.

Nathaniel was very professional and the food was amazing. Would definitely recommend him to others!

Nate was amazing from start to finish. He understood my brief and provided a menu that was exactly what I was looking for. Nate’s food was tasty, well seasoned and the presentation was excellent. He used good quality ingredients and our entire party had leftovers.

Nate was wonderful, he let me know early on he might be a bit late but regardless, the dinner was served on time. The food was very good, and Nate was really great about everything. My only recommendation would be to serve the hot courses hotter. Presentation was excellent, we really enjoyed everything and were so impressed with how Nate left the kitchen, so clean and tidy! It was a fantastic evening! Highly recommend.

Chef Nathaniel was amazing. Communication, food, and clean up were all top notch!

We booked a personal chef for supper to celebrate my mother in laws milestone birthday (for her and 7 others). She hasn’t stopped talking about how amazing it was. She said “the arancini was perfectly done! The roasted tomato soup was thick and creamy and so tasty! The beef Wellington was a beautiful tenderloin in really great light pastry. Everything including the vanilla bean ice cream was home made!” There were zero complaints and everyone couldn’t believe how unbelievable the food was. Will recommend Nathanial. 10/10!

Nathaniel did a great job for our dinner party. The portions were very well sized, great ingredients and incredible flavor in his food, especially the sauces. He handled everything so it was very enjoyable as the host. He was super polite, self sufficient, and a pleasure to have in our home.

Our chef made us feel like we were in a 5 Star resteraunt every meal He joined us for a week and kept us all guessing if his next meal would outdo the last. He was so accomodating and by the end of our time together we had made a new friend. We will be using his services again and would highly recommend him to our associates and friends. The experience was cost effective as well and the food and assortment and preparation was off the charts. Kudos to our Chef Nathanial Davis, we now consider him a friend.

Chef Nathaniel was amazing. We hosted a meal for family visiting out of town which included very young children. Chef was punctual, arriving on time and the meal service began when we agreed upon. Food was delicious with very generous portions. He left our kitchen better than when he arrived. Would definitely recommend

I hired Take a Chef for clients who had recently sold their home with me. They told me that they had a wonderful experience and that the food was amazing!
