We had a very nice professionally prepared dinner. The chef was easy to work with and I would highly recommend him.

Chef Chris was great! We had so much great food, it was incredible! A crab deviled egg to the most juicy skirt steak - everything was great. He topped it off with our favorite banana foster dessert. We were very full and had leftovers. Chris was fun and engaging. He brought everything he needed which made the service easy for us. Glad we used take a chef to find him!

Chef Chris did a wonderful job providing a great meal, and a first time private chef experience for my birthday dinner, for my family and I. He was engaging, and asked any questions we may have had along the way. I’d recommend Chef Chris, and takeachef to others.
