Chef SeaMonkey was amazing to deal with from the start. Very easy to talk to through booking process, menu arrangements and viewing of the villa to see our cooking facilities. His staff and him arrived on agreed time of booking, they did such an amazing job setting up on outside dining table and were straight into preparing our meals. Dinner was absolutely incredible, my friends and I couldn’t have been any happier, the chef and team made my birthday so much more special so Thankyou Chef SeaMonkey and team. Matthew Paull

Gio was firstly a great chef, but also a delight to have around. I would recommend him to anyone wanting a special occasion. Thank Gio

Chef Quiel was fantastic. All the food was delicious, especially the Pork Hock and oysters! He was friendly, and incredibly accommodating. He made it a truly memorable start to our holiday in Queenstown.

Everthing was wonderful. Enjoyed the whole experience

Pur chef and assistant were amazing. We will be using them again

Chef Pedro was great. Would definitely reccommend him to anyone I know travelling to Tulum.

Roberto Ortiz and Daniela Ortiz provided a superb experience for a 60th birthday party in our rented villa in the Loire valley. They arrived and served the meal right on schedule. Both Roberto and Daniela were friendly and very professional. Everything was beautifully plated and presented along with the story behind each dish and ingredients. They had provided wine pairing ideas in advance, and kept our glasses full throughout the meal. We didn't have to lift a finger, and felt very pampered throughout the experience. At the end of the evening, the kitchen was cleaner than when they arrived. Five stars for this amazing team! They exceeded expectations.

Chef Alejandro was amazing! His food was absolutely delicious. He used seasonal ingredients to make an incredible meal for our large group and catered for several different food requirements/allergies. We would definitely recommend Chef Alejandro!

Chef Kiel was very engaged in creating the meal as an experience for our group! The food was absolutely amazing! Highly recommend!

We submitted a request with Take a Chef for the following evening. Chef Ana promptly replied with a proposal and signed up to cook with less than 24 hours notice and did a fantastic job! She was such a pleasure to talk with during planning and very thorough on questions and updates up to her arrival. Most importantly this was our favorite meal in Portugal! The food was delicious and she was very fun to engage with. Thank you!

Le Chef Stanislas nous a concocté un très bon dîner. Il est très ponctuel, sympathique et communiquant. Il s’adapte à ses convives et fait en sorte que la soirée se passe pour le mieux ! Nous le recommandons vivement !

Chef Joe was brilliant. He was super responsive to the initial enquiry and truly understood what we were looking for. He developed a Mediterranean style menu for all, with careful consideration of the dietary needs of two guests who have been working hard to get type two diabetes into remission. Not only was the menu perfect for that, the food was beautifully presented and tasted sublime. We struggled to figure out our favourite dish as all were so good! Joe also cleared up fantastically. The kitchen might even have been cleaner after the dinner! We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Joe and if we were doing something similar again, we’d definitely reach out to Joe again. Thank you for making some special birthdays even more special (and keeping the blood glucose levels spot on!), Joe. It was an experience we’ll all remember for a long time.

Chef Juan Pablo was incredible. His communication made things so easy. We spent 2 weeks on vacation with another family totalling 5 adults and 5 children. The portions were perfect and every meal was a step above the last. His easy going manner made things so simple. We greeted him at the door and he did the rest! He even prepared some fish we caught locally for a wonderful meal. My children wanted to bring him home with us. Highly recommended and I will seek JP out on our next trip!

Chef Esh-Marie was wonderful! Both her food and her personality were amazing and we had so much fun with her! She was punctual, professional, and used fresh ingredients. We will definitely be asking Chef Esh-Marie to cook for us again!

We had the most wonderful experience with Chef Dylan. He prepared an exquisite four-course meal for a special dinner in our home, and every single dish was absolutely delicious — beautifully presented, perfectly balanced, and full of flavor. Beyond the food, he was professional, warm, and made the entire evening feel seamless and elevated. All of our guests were so impressed. Highly recommend — a true talent!

I can't recommend Chef enough. The dinner was 11/10 and it was such a fun experience. First time with a private chef it was an amazing event. Thanks again

Thank you so much Chef Turadot! Our first experience with a private chef was an amazing one! Our food was delicious and everything was beautiful! Looking forward to another event with you guys!

Première fois que nous testions le concept de Chef à domicile. Le chef Coutantic a été excellent. La communication est très bonne, les produits sont frais et de qualités, les plats à la hauteur de nos espérances avec des associations originales. Nous recommandons vivement.

Chef Will was amazing!! He showed up right on time, brought such a great vibe, and made some of the best food we’ve ever had. From apps to dessert, everything was seriously delicious—it was honestly hard to pick a favorite. The empanadas and tres leches were out of this world, but the roasted pork and salmón a la criolla were also incredible. And as if that wasn’t enough, he left the kitchen spotless when he was done. Such a fun, seamless experience from start to finish. 10/10 would recommend and definitely would book again if I'm back in PR.

Chef Leny was simply amazing! At the beginning of the process, communication was a little pedestrian (maybe it’s because of my “little” OCD ????????). But the chef reached out listened to the vision and purpose of the evening, provided suggestions, and shared his plan. He again reached out the week of the event to finalize the menu, and quickly made a change when I expressed a concern. Chef Leny is very personable and professional. My guests were EXTREMELY impressed and enjoyed the food!
