Raving reviews from everyone! Chef Drew and his Sous Chef both truly made my 50th bday paired tasting menu special and everything I dreamed it would be. My favorites of the night: The Hamachi Crudo inspired me to explore raw fish! Life changing. The bacon whisky reduction was delicious. This dish was the culprit for why I couldn’t finish the main course of dessert. I couldn’t help but go back for thirds. It was a total crowd favorite. The Gazpacho was so perfectly balanced. You nailed it. The Molasses & Pomegranate sauce work was superb. I wanted to drink the sauce!! The whole dish was beautifully plated and the caramelized onion mashed potatoes and honey glazed carrots were the perfect accompaniment.

Amazing experience with excellent dishes served

Punctual, great food, quietly got on with the meal and food enjoyed by all.

The food was amazing. Nikos was very knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. He made our evening truly special.

Chef Dylan was fabulous in every way. Delicious meal, prepared on time with little fuss and leaving the kitchen immaculate.

Chef Jason was fantastic to work with. He prepared a great variety of appetizers along with a few late-night snacks, all of which were delicious. He handled all the prep while we were out at an event, and everything was ready and perfectly timed for our return. Jason was professional, organized, and punctual. The experience was seamless from start to finish, and we would absolutely use him again and recommend him to others.

Our experience with Take a Chef was great. Our chef, Fabio Simone, was on time and very professional. His food, presentation, and service were exceptional! A+

Chef Maro and Anna were absolutely incredible. Each course was prepared and presented with the utmost care. We have dined at many top restaurants and never experienced the quality, taste, originality, and enjoyment of a meal like this! I highly recommend Chef Maro if you want to experience a meal you will never forget.

We greatly appreciated Chef Lionel and his team and will keep him in mind for future group dinners. A+

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Lerato & Team - Private Chef, Langebaan We booked Lerato through TakeAChef for my good friend Brad's bachelor weekend in Langebaan. A house full of loud guys, big expectations, big appetites - she nailed it from start to finish. Friday night was a full traditional braai - lamb chops, marinated pork belly, peri-peri chicken, sharing steaks, boerewors pinwheels with chakalaka, braai'd corn ribs with cream cheese and chilli, peri-peri chicken livers, pap with relish, braai broodjies, and an Amarula malva pudding to finish. Almost the entire menu was her own concept and inspiration - I just tweaked a couple of things when we chatted it through. Genuinely some of the best food I've eaten at any event. She came back Saturday morning and did a full cooked breakfast - eggs every way, bacon, boerewors, hash browns, corn fritters, fruit platter, coffee, a DIY mimosa station and a Bloody Mary bar. Perfect for the state most of us were in by that point. She brought her daughters along to help and honestly the whole team were just such lovely, kind people. Warm, happy, totally unfazed by a rowdy group of guys - you could just tell they genuinely enjoy what they do. The girls were amazing and everyone loved them. The bachelorette party actually got jealous when they heard about the food. That says it all really. Outstanding value, incredible food, brilliant people. I'd use Lerato again without hesitation and recommend her to absolutely anyone. Thank you Lerato - it's one of the highlights of the whole weekend and people still talk about it now. ????

Chef Steve was absolutely incredible. From start to finish, the entire dinner experience exceeded our expectations. Not only was the food amazing, but he was funny, personable, and made everyone feel comfortable in our home. We had two little ones here, and he went out of his way to include them — letting them help and calling them “chef,” which meant so much to us and made the night even more special. The food he prepared was outstanding, thoughtful, and beyond what we imagined. I would recommend Chef Steve to anyone without hesitation and would absolutely book him again.

After being let down last minute by another chef, chef Jana stepped in and did an amazing job. The food was delicious couldn’t have asked for anything nicer. She also cleaned the kitchen fully.

Chef Rafaela Castilho prepared an incredible dinner for our group at our Airbnb in Funchal. She was punctual, incredibly kind, and a fantastic communicator throughout the entire process. Every course was thoughtfully prepared with fresh local ingredients, and the presentation was beautiful from start to finish. Everything was absolutely delicious, but the passion fruit dessert especially deserves its own mention — truly unforgettable. You can tell she genuinely cares about her craft, and it made the entire evening feel so special. Highly recommend if you’re visiting Madeira and want a memorable private dining experience.

We really enjoyed the evening that Steve and his wife created for us. Not only was the food absolutely delicious, it was also beautifully presented. The whole atmosphere felt relaxed and personal as well. Everything was arranged down to the smallest detail and you could truly taste the passion and care that went into it. Steve and his wife were also incredibly friendly and open. We enjoyed it so much that a few days later we used their service again, where they prepared dishes from their own culture especially at our request. We would without hesitation recommend them to anyone looking for a special culinary evening :) Thanks again for everything!

My husband & I enjoyed our meal tremendously! It was our 29th Anniversary & Chef Jason did not disappoint! We would request him again! Wendy & Norman King

Amazing team, food, professionalism and all in all AMAZING! I booked this for my bach and everyone is still raving about it!!
