Chef Maximiliano (Chef Maximiliano) Di Castri

Chef A Domicilio en Santo Domingo

I started my career in a Restaurant in Milan (Italy) as a Chef assistant where with a lot of effort and sacrifice but delighted with my work I learned to manage a real kitchen, successively after 5 years taking advantage of my experience

I decided to transfer to the Dominican Republic, opening a Restaurant where with great success and expanding my knowledge I decided to expand my dishes.

Now after 16 years I want to offer my recipes also as a Private Chef, Chef at Home, Personal Chef. I have knowledge of Italian, French, Spanish, and International Cuisine.

Para mi la cocina es...

Chef Maximiliano and his team were great! Super communicative beforehand and throughout the dinner. Food was great and his entire team was so friendly. Would definitely recommend!

Chef Maximiliano is amazing and the food beyond exquisite - all fresh ingredients, great plating, an all around stellar dining experience. His team, Chef Yeraldine and Mr. Ricardo, a veteran fine dining server, are just as attentive and engaging, not to mention highly efficient, as Chef Maximiliano. They work seamlessly and are guided by strong hospitality values. Chef Maximiliano's level of care and gracefulness is impressive. Our group raved about their favorite part of their meal right after the Classic Tiramisu. And last, but not least, we would have been more than happy to clean up after ourselves, but the kitchen was left better than they found it. Thank you for making my 40th birthday dinner party a moment to remember. Best, Indi

Valencia was wonderful

Massimo, a born Italian, is a really enjoyable chef. Very friendly guy, also his staff. Quality of the food was OK.

This was a first-time experience for us. Ours was a big group but Chef Maximiliano was very professional and attentive to our needs. The food was delicious and he used high quality ingredients.

I hired Chef Max for a surprise Valentine’s Day dinner for my family. He was incredible and everyone loved the food. The quality of the food was amazing and he went above and beyond to give a first class experience. I would highly recommend hiring Chef Max.

Having Chef Maximiliano cook for our family of 10 was a great idea and incredible experience to add to our trip to Miami! We highly recommend using his services!

Excellent meal and experience. The food was delicious and the kitchen was spotless afterward. Definitely recommend for a great night. Well worth it!

From the moment Chef Maximiliano arrived, our private chef transformed our dining experience into something truly extraordinary. His punctuality was just the first hint of his professionalism, setting the stage for an evening of culinary delight. His kindness shone through in every interaction, making us feel not just like clients, but like guests of honor at a special event. His creativity with the menu was a high point of the evening. Each dish was not only delicious but also a work of art, showcasing his exceptional talent and passion for food. What truly set him apart was his willingness to accommodate our dietary restrictions. This level of attention and care ensured that every guest could indulge in the fantastic flavors he created, worry-free. The entire menu was flawless, with each course outshining the last. It's rare to find such a perfect blend of taste, presentation, and nutrition, but our chef achieved this with apparent ease. The dishes were served beautifully, further enhancing the overall dining experience. He exceeded our expectations in every way, adding thoughtful touches that turned a simple meal into a memorable feast. His dedication to his craft was evident, and his ability to create such a harmonious dining experience was truly commendable. In conclusion, we would not only love to hire him again but also highly recommend him to anyone seeking a private chef who is the epitome of professionalism, creativity, and culinary excellence. His service was more than just a meal; it was a gastronomic journey that we were privileged to embark on.

I highly recommend chef Maximiliano for an authentic and delicious Italian dinner experience! Every dish was elaborated with care and aesthetically plated. The flavors in each dish were carefully combined, and each bite was a delight to our palates. We were a group of 7 and all of us were delighted with the menu and service. On top of this, the chef was extremely friendly and very easy to talk to. I would definitely hire Maximiliano again if I ever have another event in the Miami area.

Sublime!! Everything from pre-booking questions til desert was communicated and presented perfectly. The food and service was amazing, Chef Max was very flexible and attentive, offering a welcome cocktail apéritif and additional staff. All of our additional requests were met and Chef made great suggestions where we needed them. Kind and fun atmosphere. The food was a hit with everyone, it was a great night. Hope we get to meet again! Thank you, Chef!!

Chef Maximiliano gave us an experience to remember. He made the menu I requested to perfection! He is very knowledgeable, pays attention to detail and executes his dishes excellently. Our birthday celebration was truly one for the books. We look forward to welcoming him again in our home. He is joined by his talented wife and assistant Carolina. Thank you to both for an amazing meal!

I am at a total loss for words but I have to give credit where credit is due. This was such a beautiful, unique and absolutely unforgettable experience! The food was beyond amazing, just absolutely perfect! Chef Maximiliano and his assistant were absolutely divine! The level of professionalism, attention to detail and personalization was impeccable. Thank you for making my mother’s birthday a very special one, we look forward to visiting your restaurant and booking events with you in the future

The experience exceeded our expectations. The food was amazing. We were able to customize the menu based off of the selections offered. We had four courses including a starter and dessert. Our kitchen was small so we didn’t help out with cooking but i was able to stand in the kitchen and watch closely. The chef and his wife were very professional, prompt, and courteous. Definitely a 5/5 experience.

Food was amazing and the company was even better
