Sarah was just wonderful~ we had such a wonderful time. The food was great but Sarah her self was the best treat her self!^^ highly highly recommended.

Damian was excellent. He communicated in advance, updated us on his progress the day of service and cooked a fantastic meal. I’ve had the privilege of eating at some very nice restaurants in New York and other culinary centers and was pleasantly surprised what Damian was able to do in a kitchen he just walked into for the first time. He hit the mark. The taste was excellent and presentation was phenomenal. Would highly recommend

Chef Cody was bigger than life in the most positive way. He appeared comfortable with us immediately, was engaging and informative about his food preparation and presentation. The 3 hours sped by and we would certainly recommend Take A Chef to our friends and family. What a FABULOUS evening❣️

Cristian was phenomenal! His dishes were intricate and awesome. He was very open to working with me on menu ideas and he was very flexible with multiple different dishes. All in all I highly recommend Cristian. He was fun, positive, educational, very professional and his food was delicious. Thanks Cristian!

This was my first time using Take a Chef and it was a seamless experience. Chef Omar was friendly and communicative and handled everything. My kitchen is not well equipped but that didn’t matter as he brought everything he needed including plates and cutlery! Great experience, tasty food and my guests loved it.

An exceptional experience for a romantic dinner at home. As a first-time experience, it exceeded all expectations, and I would highly recommend Chef Emrys’ services. The presentation was outstanding, and the overall experience was truly memorable. I would not hesitate to book again in the future.

I hired Chef Felipe for a hen do dinner and everybody was so impressed with the entire dinner from start to finish. He was on time, polite, said hi to everybody and got to work right away. Before he even started cooking, he cleaned all of the counter spaces that he was going to use. We started with an amazing spread of appetizers that I swear could have been our full meal. Then we had a first course, main course and dessert. Everything was so delicious and one of our group members was pregnant and he made sure to accommodate her, making sure to not use anything in the dishes that she couldn’t eat and also made sure to cook the steak appropriately for her. He was observant and made sure we got everything we needed. I would highly recommend this chef and now I want another private chef experience!

Anna May made this experience 10/10 for us. Her attention to detail was top marks along with the food & her bubbly personality. The scallops, Steak, White Chocolate cheesecake (along with all the sides) was the absolute business. A great experience made even better by a top Chef. ????????

Chef Warren is amazing! His dishes were very tasty and his demeanor so friendly and calming...it made for a very nice evening - everyone had a great time! He was also very flexible when I had a possibility of a few more guests. His menu was simple but elegant and the way he prepared everything...so delicious! The Charred octopus was my favorite! And the filet was like button! Love him and would recommend him as well as use him again!.

Chef Yasuaki was extremely warm and friendly. His food was great, the taste exceeded our expectations. Overall, this was an incredible experience.

Chef Cilla was professional, accommodating to various dietary requirements and very responsive. We would highly recommend her! She gave good information on the Balinese dishes she cooked which kept us engaged. Thankyou!

Chef Miguel absolutely crushed it for our event. He executed the exact menu we wanted perfectly—everything came out tasting amazing and looked great too. He was on time, professional, and incredibly easy to work with throughout the entire process. Made everything seamless and stress-free. Highly recommend him for any event!

Incredible seafood feast by Chef Ignacio! Our group is still talking about the tuna tartar and bouillabaisse. Thank you chef for making my Miami birthday weekend special!

Amazing. I did this service several times and Paul is on a different level. So impressed. The food was delicious and homemade every part.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Michelin-starred experience in your own living room! I wanted to share my fantastic experience with Chef Francesco, who accomplished a nearly impossible feat. Despite my last-minute notice, Francesco accepted the challenge with timeless professionalism and availability. Here's why I highly recommend him: Ability to adapt: Organizing a dinner at home in such a short time is not for everyone, but he didn't bat an eyelid, taking care of every detail as if we'd been planning the event for months. Food quality: Simply sublime dishes. You can taste the exquisite selection of ingredients and impeccable technique. Each course was an explosion of flavors, presented with an elegance worthy of the finest restaurants. Service: Francesco isn't just a "cook," he's a true host. Discreet, meticulous in his work, and capable of conveying his passion for cooking while explaining the dishes. He was truly brilliant: he transformed an ordinary evening into an unforgettable event, saving the day with a unique touch of class. We also tried his cooking school in San Casciano dei Bagni, a wonderful cooking class immersed in nature, making pasta and enjoying excellent drinks, followed by a beautiful dinner. Thanks also to Villa Vetrichina, the property where the cooking school is located. Thank you, Chef, see you next time for sure! We'll be in Tuscany again in October and will definitely come visit you or call you for another wonderful dinner.

Chef William De Jesus was truly a pleasure to work with. More than his exceptional professionalism he was careful, thoughtful and very passionate about his craft. Every meal was delicious, meticulous in its detail and came with great lessons about the culture behind the dish as well as the ingredients. He’s top notch!

Chef Tielmann was beyond great. The food was delicious and he made our anniversary perfect! I highly recommend him.

Excellent chef who prepared daily meals for my family while in Bali. He was both friendly and talented, catering to our individual preferences as adjusting based on our requests. The food was delicious! It was highlight of our week.

Merci bcp à Gérard pour sa prestation. Ce fut une première pour nous, a l’occasion de l’anniversaire des 40 ans de ma compagne, où j’ai également fais ma demande en mariage. Le repas était succulent et ce fut un plaisir d’échanger avec le chef. Tout le monde a adoré. Nous recommandons Gerard.

Chef Morgan was great. I highly recommend hiring him
