We liked her a lot and the food was amazing :)

TL;DR - Imagine being welcomed home by a cousin you didn't know you had. It's like that. Hadi put in a proposal for my brother's birthday, which was a small affair for my immediate family, that I was organising at a friend's house because he has more space than I do. From the start, Hadi was responsive, attentive, professional and clear. He was open to ideas, he was respectful, he seemed like he knew what he was doing. I felt like we were in good hands. On the day of the event, he was punctual, friendly, calm, an excellent host, and had done a huge amount of preparation. He engaged my entire family in conversation while simultaneously serving us generous amounts of absolutely fantastic food, including extra dishes he knew we'd like. His specialities are Middle Eastern and Mediterranean dishes, and although I'm quite familiar with them, he had some excellent interpretations of them which elevated the flavours and textures. He was unobtrusive, charming, respectful and knowledgeable. To be honest, we all felt like we'd somehow stumbled into a long-lost cousin who'd invited us into his home. That's how convivial it felt. And then after the meal, after he'd tidied up and hung out with us a bit, he left. We got a load of leftovers to take home, a full stomach, and a warm feeling like we'd been in the presence of a friend and a true professional. If you are lucky enough to find him available, book him without a second's hesitation. I promise you won't regret it.

An impeccable experience from beginning to end. The chef’s expertise shone through his menu descriptions, and the table setting by his wife was simply elegant. If you're looking for perfection, I can't recommend them enough

This event was a wedding-gift for my brother and his wife. They are really satisfied, everything was absolutely incredible. I do recommend the Takeachef service and personally Dexter for everybody!

Un garçon très aimable, discret, arrangeant. Je le recommande chaleureusement

C'était la première fois que nous faisons appel à un chef à la maison, c'était une surprise a l'occasion d'un anniversaire. Cette soirée en famille a été parfaitement réussie grâce au talent et au professionnalisme de notre sympathique chef. Préparation parfaite en amont et prestation impeccable le jour J, un régal. Nous recommandons Laurent Coutantic!

Amrul prepared two amazing dinners for us while we were on holiday in our villa. He was super easy to work with, responsive on WhatsApp, listened to all our preferences and delivered delicious dinners both nights. The first night was my birthday and he went above and beyond setting up the room with balloons, candles and confetti and a candle for desert. It was such a lovely surprise coming home to the space nicely set up! He is very skilled and all the food was really tasty. We loved his take on traditional Indonesian dishes elevating them but keeping the traditional flavours and roots. Highly recommend!

Chef Jasmine was beyond amazing! We booked her for Valentine’s Day and she exceeded our expectations. She was prompt and ensured our dinner started at the requested time. Everything from the appetizer to dessert was delicious and the portion sizes were perfect. I am still thinking about the crab cake and the peach cobbler (soooo good!) I also can’t forget to mention how beautiful the table decorations were! We definitely plan on booking Chef Jasmine again in the future. Thank you so much again for making our evening so special!

Thanks my chef Marco. He is very good in terms of food preparation, dish presentation and servicing. You will not be feeling awkward as Marco is such a cheerful and friendly person. Talking to him while he is preparing the dinner is such a pleasure. This is my first time using takeachef service, and no regret. Highly recommend Marcoto those who wants to try home chef fine dining service. Macro, you are excellent!!

Chef Katrina was excellent. We collaborated on a Caribbean menu from her roots. She was very responsive and told me what to expect, how much time she needed. She was prompt and very professional. We retired for cocktails and she went to work. She gave us a bonus starter that wasn't on the menu - a Caribbean lobster bisque that tasted incredible. Then panko coconut shrimp -crispy and tasty. Next was pork belly that was out of this world with flavor. Finally a sea bass curry that was tender and scrumptious. To top it off was a home made Caribbean chocolate layer cake with home made jam. I didn't expect even the dessert to be home made. Katrina left everything spotless in the kitchen. I highly recommend her.

Incredible and delightful!! We had such a lovely time and the entire dining experience was outstanding! Thank you, Gabriel! 5*

Chef Peter Sieracki is very professional. We had a very impressive Valentine's dinner with 6 adults and two kids. Even we had a very small kitchen in the resort, he still managed to get everything cooked well above our expectation. We enjoyed all the dishes. Everything is very smooth from booking to cleaning.

We worked with Chef Isis to cater breakfasts and lunch for four days for my husband's 50th birthday celebration. Chef Isis was so engaged in advance - working with me on menus, accommodating multiple dietary restrictions in our group and adding on cocktail support for the birthday celebration. If the prep was any indication of what was to come, Chef Isis far exceeded our expectations. She was prompt ever single day and worked late into the evening ensuring that she left our rental spotless! She was thoughtful to be sure that every meal has variations for our gluten free, vegan, vegetarian contingency. She had the best attitude even though our rental kitchen was not sufficient (very small, no stove, minimal cookware) - bringing in additional supplies when needed to keep everything on track. And she was so fun to be around - we truly enjoyed her company. Oh, and the food was the BEST - our group of 15 raved about every dish - especially the kids, who are the most discerning customers! :) I'm so glad we found Chef Isis - she made our vacation truly amazing.

Solicité los servicios de Luis para una velada en San Valentín, y superó las expectativas. A pesar de tener unas opciones de menú predeterminadas, se preocupa por personalizar la experiencia de acuerdo a tus necesidades. Comida, presentación y limpieza 10/10. En caso busque hacer un evento similar, no dudaría en requerir sus servicios de nuevo. Totalmente recomendado.

Juan Carlos and his sous chef, Maricela, were amazing! The food was incredible and we learned so much about local techniques, spices, and cooking methods. This was the best meal we had in Baja and such a fun experience for our whole family. I highly recommend Juan Carlos!

Chef Jaxson was fantastic! My wife and I had a wonderful evening and enjoyed our personalized menu.

Chef Tye was wonderful. A good communicator throughout the planning process and very nice & accommodating. He was punctual, professional, friendly and easy to have in our home, along with his sous chef Sarah. The food was delicious and everyone enjoyed it. Leftovers were packaged up for us in the fridge and clean up was quick & efficient. All of it was a treat.

Layla and Diego were very professional. We had a last emergency and they prepared for the food for us to enjoy the next day. We hope to have dinner with them soon

La experiencia con Alejandro ha sido de 10. Cocina exquisita y presentación de los platos excelente. Muy cercano y agradable. Repetiría 100% con él.

We booked chef Marius for a hen party and honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From start to finish, he went above and beyond to make the evening special for everyone. The food was incredible — the gyozas to start were absolutely delicious, and the duck main was cooked perfectly. Everything was beautifully presented and full of flavour. He was professional, friendly, and made the whole experience feel relaxed and effortless, which was exactly what we wanted for the celebration. It really made the night feel extra special. We couldn’t thank him enough and would highly recommend him for any event. Truly outstanding service and amazing food!
