We had such a fantastic experience with Chef Mateus! The food was absolutely incredible, and we loved how traditional Portuguese flavours and dishes were incorporated with a creative modern flair. Every dish was delicious, and our whole party thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Chef Mateus was incredibly attentive throughout and went above and beyond to cater to all of our allergies and individual requirements, making everyone feel completely comfortable and well looked after. On top of the amazing food and service, the kitchen was left absolutely spotless afterwards, which was such a lovely finishing touch. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend Chef Mateus to anyone looking for delicious food, thoughtful service, and a truly memorable dining experience!

We had such a great time with Tárcio! He made us a special Portuguese dinner for my mothers birthday. We had a great time chatting with him while he prepared our dinner professionally. He was quick and organized! Made us feel like we were at a proper restaurant but with homemade feeling. His dessert was delicious! Thank you for the special dinner!

Gabriele was amazing. Very talented young man with a perfect feeling for the atmosphere. The food was incredible delicious.

Chef Ana was incredible! She prepared a superb hands on dinner for us and all of the ladies got to be involved in the cooking process which they enjoyed so much! 5 stars for this incredible chef! Highly recommend and look forward with her again.

Chef Isaac was brilliant. He came with everything we needed including tableware. The food was amazing - chef was also able to cater for food intolerances easily! The food was beautifully presented. Chef Isaac was also a pleasure to have in our home! Thank you so much for a wonderful evening

Marzia and Antonio were a pleasure to have in our villa. They were warm, funny and the experience of making the pasta was a lot of fun. The food was delicious.

Sehr zu empfehlen! Das Essen war super lecker. Chef Paul war sehr freundlich. Die Küche wurde sauber wieder hinterlassen. Würde ich jederzeit wieder buchen!

Chef Stefy was incredible! Her food was absolutely delicious and our guests were impressed! Book her!

Everything was amazing, best food we’ve had since being here. Chef Michael is very talented and I would recommend him to anyone.

I booked Chef Tyler to surprise my husband for his big birthday weekend with longtime friends and family, and he absolutely over-delivered! He worked around food restrictions, adjusted dishes and portions to make sure our group was more than full, and helped coordinate the courses so I could plan wine pairings. This is a picky group who knows their way around a good steak, and everyone was impressed! Tyler was easygoing, personable, and made the entire experience effortless. The ceviche was my favorite, hands down, and somehow the kitchen was cleaner than when he arrived! Would 1000% book him again.

Chef Oren was great from start to finish. It was very easy to work out a menu for our small dinner party. Chef Oren delivered an incredible time to us, with dishes that were truly memorable. He was very sociable as he worked and made it a pleasure to have in our kitchen. We would certainly use him again if we lived in Vancouver!

I want to say that Noreh nailed our reunion breakfast. She arrived at the arranged time, cooked, cleaned up and left with a crew of very satisfied customers. She had so many options for breakfast that it was hard to decide what to eat. Highly recommend this site as I had no idea where to look for a reasonably priced chef for this event. This was a fantastic way for us to wrap up our weekend and get to spend those extra few minutes hanging out being silly and talking all those old stories that you have at a reunion group. Thank you Noreh you nailed it and made this very very pleasant experience.

La verdad, que una experiéncia más que positiva, el chef encantador y muy profesional, el menú estupendo y cantidades generosas. totalmente recomendable. saludos gemma

Chef Stef was exceptional—prompt, professional, and highly dedicated. She engaged with the group and worked tirelessly, resulting in flawless service with no issues. Her dishes were outstanding and consistently praised by everyone. Additionally, she thoughtfully placed all plates in the oven before serving and cleaned up so thoroughly after each meal that it seemed as if she had never been there. I would definitely choose her again when the time comes!

Dericka put together a fantastic menu, was perfectly communicative beforehand (informative but didn't stress me out with a million questions), right on time and put up with all my guests wandering in and out of the kitchen all night, AND THE FOOD WAS SO PERFECT! My pickiest friend said it was the best lobster roll she's ever had. I would recommend her to anyone -- she made my husband's 40th exactly what we wanted it to be!

Dennis Cheek and his son, Jaden, did an awesome job for our French themed dinner party for 8. Communicates beforehand were quick and easy. Food and service and cleanup all spectacular!

The Chef and his waitress were excellent, they worked well together and the food was amazing.

Vi är väldigt nöjda med allt och Roland gjorde ett fantastiskt jobb. Otroligt god mat, genomtänkt och fint presenterad, allt höll en hög nivå från början till slut. Roland var dessutom mycket trevlig, professionell och bidrog till en väldigt fin helhetsupplevelse. Vi kan varmt rekommendera honom och skulle absolut boka honom igen vid ett framtida tillfälle.

Sakis was fantastic. The preparation, presentation, the food itself, and the clean-up were all second to none. Would highly recommend and would definitely book Sakis again!

Very tasty food very nicely presented!! The chef was very professional and discreet and not only took care of cooking and cleaning but also brought tableware and silverware to ensure the food is properly presented.
