What is included when you hire a chef for the night?
When you hire a chef for dinner, all of the details are handled for you. Once the menu is finalized, you can relax as your personal chef gets to work sourcing all of the ingredients, from the freshest oysters to the finest-quality Mexican chocolate. Your menu is prepared on-site, guaranteeing the freshest flavors and beautifully plated presentations, whether it’s an elegant sit-down meal for four or a relaxed buffet for 44. If your menu requires specialty equipment, like a hibachi grill, your chef will provide it. The best part? When you hire a chef for the night, they take care of the clean-up, leaving your kitchen spotless.
What are the most popular cuisines with private chef experiences?
Private chef experiences are unique, and Scottsdale chefs will design a menu that satisfies your cravings or embraces the latest food trends. While classic options like Italian, Asian, and steakhouse favorites remain popular, your in-home chef can craft anything from a cozy, casual meal to a luxurious five-course dinner. Craving a Southwestern brunch for a dozen friends in Cenpho? Rent a chef to whip up dishes like huevos rancheros and tamales. Fancy The Arrogant Butcher’s modern American fare? Hire a chef to indulge in salt-crusted rib-eye steak and classic crème brûlée at your Biltmore home. Dietary preferences like vegetarian, vegan, keto, or gluten-free are easily accommodated for a truly personalized experience.
How do I hire a chef or rent a chef?
It’s as easy to hire a chef as it is to enjoy a sunset over the Sonoran Desert. Simply browse through the curated selection of culinary experiences listed on this page and choose the one that best suits your style. Select your desired date, serving time, and guest count, and click “BOOK NOW.” Once your reservation is confirmed, your personal chef will reach out to discuss menu options and finalize the details. Please contact our helpful concierge team to rent a chef if you need any assistance with finding a date or have special requests.
How much should I tip my private chef?
When you book a private chef for a dinner party, tipping is entirely optional and up to your discretion. However, if you'd like to show your appreciation for the chef’s exceptional service and five-star dishes, like their prickly pear margarita or mesquite-grilled steaks, we suggest a tip of 10% to 25% of the total cost as a kind and thoughtful gesture.
Where do the experiences take place?
From Scottsdale to Downtown Phoenix, when you book an in-home chef for a dinner party, the dining experience comes right to you. Whether you’re craving the drama and flair of traditional Japanese hibachi in Arcadia or tamales and churros at a Mexican fiesta on your Paradise Valley rooftop, you’ll savor a gourmet meal with impeccable service. As long as your chef has access to a fully equipped kitchen, hiring chefs to cook at your home means your culinary experience can unfold in your favorite room, under the stars, or even with breathtaking views of the Desert Foothills.

Chef Francesca was fantastic! She came to our house to cook dinner for my wife’s birthday and we enjoyed every moment of it. From the preparation of the meal to the delicious food she served, it was all incredible. I would recommend her to anyone and look forward to having her back to our home again very soon!
