Hello and thank you for your interest. Welcome to Dining with Jason let's plan a great meal together. I specialize in customizing dinners that will exceed your expectations and creating lasting memories.

I have over 18 years of experience learning techniques from some of the best Michelin Trained Chefs and restaurateurs in the business. David Burke's Fromagerie was my intro to French classics.

My years of fine dining restaurants, in home private dining, 5 diamond hotels and catering special events have given me an appreciation for quality ingredients and elegant meals.

Chef Jason was outstanding. The food was incredible and he's company was very enjoyable.

Chef Jason was awesome. So easy to work with from beginning to end. Very friendly demeanor and willing to share insights or knowledge when we asked or when it was appropriate. He arrived right on time and got to work. First courses were amazing and unique. Main course was a traditional meal we requested and better than we could've expected. Desserts were next level. Time and preparation to make these desserts started a day in advance and was well worth the outcome. Cannot recommend Chef Jason Mayer enough. We will work together in the near future.

Jason is an amazing chef who clearly loves what he does! I encourage anyone considering chef proposals to talk with him, he is more than accommodating and willing to spend the time up front to make sure you and your group are happy with their menu selection. The food from presentation to taste was excellent, would definitely work with him again!

Jason was extremely accommodating and his food was outstanding. He seamlessly adjusted his plating to match our timing (we were doing too much talking and drinking) and executed exceptionally. Would hire him again in a heartbeat.

Jason was incredible! His food was fantastic and was great at answering questions and engaging with us while he cooked! Timely in terms of courses, flexible (if you have little ones), and was very thorough in clean up! Would highly recommend!

Chef Jason was incredible!!!! I can’t say enough great things about the chef and food. The food was phenomenal!!! The snapper dinner was delicious. We are still thinking about it. Chef Jason also substituted several ingredients for us. We will definitely use Chef Jason again.

Chef Jason made my mother-in-law’s 80th birthday a most memorable, enjoyable, and special event. The food and presentation, especially the calamari and crème brûlée, were spectacular and we will definitely call him again. Jason was flexible with the menu by accommodating vegetarians and customizing the menu to include requested dishes. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

Amazing! You MUST use Jason!

We had Chef Jason over for a surprise birthday dinner. First, he was early, which I appreciate, and he was nothing but professional, courteous, and of course the food was amazing! He accommodated a food allergy and even created a dessert off menu for the birthday boy. We will be asking him back for future events!

Jason was wonderful! He was very punctual, professional and kind. The food was delicious and he left the Kitchen cleaner then we be arrived! Highly recommend!

Chef Jason was an absolute delight to work with! We collaborated on a 5 course tasting menu inspired by favorite vacations my husband and I have taken. In addition to cooking, plating, and serving, he also served wine pairings with each course. The pace of the meal was perfect. I would absolutely recommend Chef Jason for anything from dinner parties to weekly meals for your family.
