Our Chef Chris was amazing. We were in Palma, Spain and she made us 4 delicious dinners. She was extremely accommodating and so nice. We felt spoiled and enjoyed everything she made for us. Thank you!

Chef Hugo was simply outstanding. The was food was stunning and we could not recommend him more highly. You won’t be disappointed!

Used this for the first time for our anniversary. Enjoyed every moment. Would recommend and use again.

Chef Fabio was wonderful! The dishes he prepared were so good!! If we ever find ourselves back in Italy we will look Fabio up again.

I decided to take a private chef experience on a very short notice due to various circumstances and I was pleasantly surprised when Vasilis responded with a very relevant options, quickly adjusted to my needs and showed amazing professionalism throughout our interaction. He was attentive to our special requests, kind, entertaining and truly passionate about food and making us feel welcomed and relaxed. In fact he went above and beyond, taking care of our kid’s meal as well, offering wine recommendations and leaving us with some treats afterwards. I enjoyed the dinner and the vibe, and I would definitely recommend Vasilis! And yes - the food was amazing.

Fantastic chef, delicious food, very good experience! We look forward to hosting our next experience with Cintamani!

Franco and Mia did a superb job. We had an amazing evening with great food and zero stress. 10/10 would highly recommend

The food was the best we have ever eaten. Everything was fresh and presesented with professionalism.

It was a great experience with wonderful food and service

Chef Ben provided an incredible Italian meal for our 7-member family at the end of our first day of vacation. He was engaging and very friendly and won rave reviews for all 7 of us. We will certainly be using him again.

Angie is a pro and lovely to work with.

Chef Carlos provided a truly special, personalized experience for my family reunion dinner. At my request, he included the kids in the prep work, which made the night fun and interactive for them. The food was amazing and well presented, and Chef left the kitchen spotless.

Amazing experience!

Chef Onyi had great energy. She was very informational about her food, and she had engaging conversaition.

Absolutely fantastic experience. The food was exceptional, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. Every dish exceeded our expectations, and the chef was professional, organized, and a pleasure to work with. Our guests were incredibly impressed, and we would gladly book again. Highly recommend!

Damien is een fantastische kok die luistert, begrijpt wat we willen en hoe we het willen; hij voelt dat haarfijn aan. Oftewel: hij heeft ons een onvergetelijke avond bezorgd.

Our experience with Take a Chef, specifically Chef Joel and Chef Alba was incredible. Joel was very attentive, accommodating and very quick to reply when I had questions. Alba was lovely! She was very professional, kind, and had great attention to detail. The meal she prepared for us was delicious and the presentation was gorgeous. I would highly recommend Chef Joel and Alba for all your catering needs!

I celebrated my birthday with a private dinner, and my friends and I had the most incredible evening. Claudio was absolutely amazing. The way he presented and served each dish was exceptional, and every plate looked stunning. The menu was outstanding, and my friends even said it was the best food they have had in Australia. Beyond the food, we truly enjoyed Claudio's company and the warm, welcoming atmosphere he created throughout the evening. Thank you for making my birthday so special and memorable. It was a truly wonderful experience that we will all remember for a long time. Highly recommended!

Anna was great. Showed up right on time, prepared a great meal for us, and cleaned up the kitchen completely. Really enjoyed the variety of food and the cadence of the meal. We had a group of 13 and they managed to time everything perfectly.

The Chef was very professional, answered all questions and the menu was exactly as described. The food was delicious and great quality.
