Chef David is fantastic. The meal was obviously great, but he was just a fun addition to the evening. He gave us concise explanations of each course and posed in photo op's! We'll be using him for our next event.

We were totally impressed!!! Valentina was so professional. While we enjoyed time in our garden, Valentina cooked. She called us in for our first course of beef tartare; what a great start! The chicken cordon bleu was the best I’ve ever had! The multi-ingredient salad was perfect with the rest of the meal. The little cake with vanilla ice cream and sauce topped off the meal. We asked Valentina to join us at the table for a little while and got to know her a bit. She cleaned up the kitchen and washed all the dishes, leaving the kitchen spotless which I really appreciated. Valentina is a true French chef! Best of luck to her success and her lucky next patrons! M

Mert was professional, gracious, and a phenomenal cook! Our group so enjoyed his dinner and welcoming him in our home!

Jessica P.

Mert made my husband’s birthday unforgettable! He was not only an excellent cook delivering one of the best meals we’ve ever had in or out of a restaurant but was also a super interesting person who taught us so much about how and why he was cooking the way he was. If you’re at all interested in how the magic happens at restaurants this experience is far more than just a meal. More importantly he modified the menu to accommodate to any dietary restrictions and we couldn’t believe how good the gluten/low lactose alternatives were - most restaurants don’t have options this good for gluten/dairy free. Book Mert and you are guaranteed to have a time you won’t forget!

Max B.

Chef Pierre and his assistant made my wife's surprise birthday dinner party the most memorable and special evening! The food was delicious but we were particularly impressed with how they served our guests (pouring for everyone throughout the evening and cleaning the table after each course) + how clean they left our kitchen! We will certainly be having Chef Pierre over again! Truly a special evening because we chose Chef Pierre :)

Chef Mert shared modern techniques with his classic family recipes for a Mediterranean feast unlike any we have experienced. We learned so much about flavors, and seasoning combinations which add depth and finesse to Mediterranean favorites like hummus and kebabs. An elevated dining experience from a warm, friendly and knowledgeable chef

I got this as a gift for my boyfriend for Christmas, and we loved it! Chef Mert was great. He showed up early to get started on the meal so that we could eat at our desired time, and he was a lot of fun during the process as well. My boyfriend and I love to cook, so we watched him and asked questions at all the various steps in the meal. Every course was extremely delicious as well and incorporated so many new flavors! We’re already thinking of more occasions to use him again for group events. Thanks Chef Mert!

Chef Ashley was AMAZING. She communicated with me to keep me updated before the session. The food was DELICIOUS and the set up was just beautiful. She cooked with love and we could really taste it in the meal. She also did a great job with the dining experience, walked us through the meal, and made sure we were well taken care of. I loved that she also cleaned up great after she was done. This was one of the best birthday experiences and we totally enjoyed it. I will definitely be engaging her services again. I HIGHLY recommend Chef Ashley’s excellent cooking.

Chef Santiago was amazing -- food was tasty and he was professional. We didn't tell him to keep to himself but he kept his focus entirely on the food and the experience. The Greek cuisine food was so good and so filling. The appetizer board was beautiful and so yummy! The lamb was great, too. I wish I wasn't so full. And the cheesecake was SO GOOD. He served it a bit warm which I had never had before but turned out it was better than I could have imagined. I hope to use his services again in the future! Thanks, Santiago!
