Chef Mariani Romain

Private Chef in Monaco

Passionné de gastronomie, je pars seule sur Paris à l'âge de 20ans Londres, la Polynésie, la Suisse et la Chine ont été une source d’inspiration

Formé aux côtés de grands chefs tels que Pierre Gagnaire, Lilian Bonnefoi et Alain Passard, la pandémie de COVID a marqué un tournant dans ma carrière, me poussant à proposer une cuisine à domicile avec des menus personnalisés.

Ma cuisine repose sur une cuisine authentique, légère, saine et gourmande, mettant en avant des ingrédients d’exception.

For me, cooking is...

C’est l'art d'utiliser la cuisine pour créer du bonheur

We had a lovely meal, the food was very good and the Chef was great. Can realy recommend both the chef and the company????????

Chef Mariani is highly skilled. The menu selection was beautiful and delicious. He was very professional and anticipated all of our needs for our group’s celebration. We were in France for 10 days and this was the best meal we had on our trip. He came prepared with everything needed to make the event classy and memorable. He left the area looking better than when we came in. 10/10 for Chef Mariani.

We were a party of 8 adults. Roman was perfect from the first communication to the end of the meal, we couldn’t have been happier with his service. We highly recommend him and his cooking.

We enjoyed a delicious meal and all our preferences were taken in to account. The food was excellent quality and was presented beautifully. A perfect meal with the family.

Nous avons fait appel à ce chef pour un repas d’entreprise et l’expérience a été irréprochable du début à la fin. Le menu aux "saveurs de Nice" a été un vrai succès avec des assiettes aussi belles que savoureuses. Le chef a su gérer son intervention avec beaucoup de fluidité, de la préparation jusqu’au service, tout en étant très ponctuel, à l’écoute et attentif aux besoins des convives. Une communication simple, agréable et efficace aussi bien en amont que sur place.

Excellent service et très sympa! Je recommande

Our dinner with Mariani Romain was beautiful, delicious and the perfect authentic French meal we asked for. He is a fabulous chef! The kitchen was left spotless and he even brought his own serving plates with him for an extra touch. We were very happy.

What a wonderful experience! He was communicative and professional. We were able to put in the request, finalize the menu, and host our event all within a week. I was shocked at how easy and smooth the entire process went, and the food was exceptional!! He even put together a special menu for my 6 year old. We all agreed the entire experience was 10/10.

We booked Chef Mariani for a small girls trip in Saint Paul de Vence and this experience was the star of the show. The elegant menu he prepared along with the presentation was so well curated and diverse featuring a local fish dish and a delightful surprise in the dessert at the end. It was more food than even we were expecting - a great value for the cost ! He paired our courses using the assortment of wine we had in our fridge which only added to the ambiance. He brought all the supplies he needed, so not to worry if your rental kitchen is not well stocked and left our kitchen in pristine condition. Overall a delightful experience and Chef Mariani was the most kind and accommodating. We would highly recommend to anyone considering it!

Out of all the things we did during our recent trip to Antibes, having Chef Romain prepare a 6-course French dinner for our house was by far the most memorable. Booking the meal couldn’t have been easier, and Chef was very communicative and responsive to our questions. At dinner, each dish was unique and absolutely delicious, and gave our group of 10 time to just talk and visit together between courses, something impossible to find at a restaurant unless you want to rent the whole place out. His server was friendly and attentive and paced the meal perfectly. Chef Romain was happy to accommodate our request for two main courses - one fish, and one beef - because we couldn’t decide between the two, and the grand finale of the Mediterranean-inspired dessert of Fraîcheur citronnée included a delightful surprise. (Don’t question it, just order it!) To top it all off, cleanup is included, so all you have to do is open another bottle of wine and enjoy the rest of your night. We loved it so much we booked a second meal at the end of the week. I can’t recommend enough - just be sure to book at least 4-6 months in advance as he’s in demand! Thank you, Chef Romain & team, for making our trip to Antibes so much more special with your beautiful and amazing food.

We couldn't have asked for a better chef for our wedding! The quality of the food was outstanding, everything was perfectly prepared and beautifully presented. Communication was always fast and smooth – every special request was handled with care and flexibility. He worked seamlessly with his service staff, who was equally professional and attentive. Absolutely flawless from start to finish – highly recommended!

Chef Mariano did an amazing job! We booked a private dinner for 8 at our Airbnb and he adapted when the apartment did not have all the equipment needed. He was very professional, even arriving with his own plates and dishware. And the food was incredible!! A great menu that he helped build ahead of time. My friends were so impressed and we would book again!!

Très bon chef et excellent repas. Juste un peu déçue qu'il ne soit pas venu avec sa vaisselle, comme prévu dans le prix et heureusement que nous en avions assez dans notre villa louée mais nous avons dû ranger le lave-vaisselle et en remettre la moitié une 2ème fois au lavage tant c'était entassé.

Chef Romain Mariani is a very polite and professional chef who prepared a wonderful meal with appetizers and three delicious dishes for my 60th birthday celebration in Southern France. I can totally recommend chef Mariani. Five stars ⭐️

Chef Roman was amazing in every sense of the word, I cannot say enough good things about him. He was communicative, promo, professional, personable, and so much fun to work with! I would highly recommend having chef Roman at your event! Thank you so much Chef! -Ashley and Anna

I recently hired Romain for a birthday party for a close friend, and I couldn't be happier with the experience! From start to finish, he was amazing to work with—so responsible, professional, and incredibly attentive to detail. The food was absolutely delicious, with each dish perfectly prepared and beautifully presented. Our guests were raving about it all night! He also left the kitchen cleaner than I gave it to him in! What really stood out was his ability to cater to various dietary restrictions without compromising on flavor or quality. It was clear that he truly cared about creating an enjoyable and inclusive experience for everyone. The whole process was completely stress-free, and I would definitely work with Romain again in the future. Highly recommend!

Book this! I do not send reviews normally but I could not wait to share a review of our chef and our dinner experience tonight for our party of 6 in Antibes. From the start, Chef Mariani’s proposal was very accommodating and paid attention to the details of my request due to our mixed dietary restrictions. He was thorough and thoughtful in his communication. Chef arrived with full equipment, food and serving ware in beautiful form, organized and inviting with a happy demeanor making us all excited. Chef was informative and seamless in his preparation and presentation. He explained all ingredients of each entree well and some special equipment he had for his preparations. Each entree was perfectly timed to fully enjoy and savor the moments and flavors. His special attention to everyone’s needs was well executed and still so delicious for each person (vegan). Ingredients were fresh, home made and perfectly paired and balance. Portions were generous. He showed the utmost professionalism and warmth in his service. You could tell this was ans important to him as it was to us, every detail was special. And he cleaned up the kitchen with such efficiency and grace! Even though we were in the same room, he was silent as a mouse. But most of all in our compliments, our meal was absolutely delicious and is the highlight of our trip. I would HIGHLY recommend him to even the most hard to please guest! If you are lucky enough to get him as your chef, there is no way you will regret it!

We had a wonderful family meal with Chef Romaine. He arrived at our rental home on time, brought everything needed, was incredibly professional and delivered an outstanding meal. Highly recommend!

Our chef was helpful with designing our choices on the menu. We had 4 choices for starters, mains and dessert. Lots of correspondence explaining the process. We had the food delivered punctually. Everything was boxed and labelled. Instructions were given on how to heat up. (We served ourselves by choice) All food was presented well. All 13 of us really enjoyed the taste of the food. Very fresh and seasoned well. I had the vegetarian lasagna which was very tasty. A friend said it was the best raspberry dessert she had ever had. All dishes were completely finished and everyone said the food was delicious. I would thoroughly recommend and would use Chef Mariani again if we visited Cannes again.
