FAQS ABOUT PRIVATE CHEFS in St. Louis
How much does a private chef in St. Louis cost?
The cost of a private chef for a dinner party depends on the number of guests attending and the experience you choose. Prices range from $59 per plate to over $100, with a discounted menu for children. Once you select a private chef experience, enter your group size, and the cost will automatically adjust; local sales tax is included. Please note that modifying the menu and making special requests may alter the final cost. If you need assistance with booking your in-home chef for a dinner party, our concierge team is available to help and answer any questions.
What is included when you hire a chef for the night?
When you hire a chef for the night, a flawless dining experience is included. From selecting the highest-quality steaks to cleaning up afterward, your in-home chef handles every detail so you can fully enjoy the occasion and your guests. Each dish is prepared fresh in your kitchen, artfully presented, and served with care. If specialty cookware is needed, your chef will take care of that, too. Hire a chef for dinner and expect a gourmet experience in the comfort of your own home.
What are the most popular cuisines with private chef experiences?
Italian, Asian, and classic American fare like surf and turf are always popular with private chef experience. However, St. Louis chefs are masters at a variety of cuisines and the latest food trends. Your in-home chef will customize your menu whether you find inspiration from your favorite restaurant in Central West End or your favorite movie. Whether you like the roasted garlic and Calabrian chili-infused dishes served at Idol Wolf or the chops and seasonal veggies prepared at Vicia, your in-home chef will create a delicious menu with the flavors you love.
How do I hire a chef or rent a chef?
It’s easier to hire a chef in St. Louis than to share your plate of toasted ravioli at Mama Toscano’s Ravioli. Simply browse the exciting culinary experiences on the page and enter your event’s date, serving time, and guest count. Shortly after your booking is confirmed, your in-home chef will contact you to customize your menu and discuss important details. Need help with finding the perfect date or have any questions? Our concierge team is here to help you rent a chef near you.
How much should I tip my private chef?
Gratuities are completely optional and at your discretion if you hire a private chef for a dinner party. However, if you insist and would like to show appreciation for your chef's exceptional service, beautiful presentations, and mouthwatering dishes, such as their tender St. Louis-style ribs and gooey butter cake, we suggest a tip of 10% to 25% of the total cost.
Where do the experiences take place?
From Soulard Historic District to Lafayette Square and Forest Park Southeast, hiring chefs to cook at your home means no more crowded restaurants or fixed menus. As long as your private chef has access to a fully equipped kitchen, they will design the perfect menu tailored to your event, bringing gourmet flavors and exceptional service right to your doorstep. Whether you’re hosting an elegant affair in Lindenwood Park or a lively family reunion with three generations in Northampton, when you hire an in-home chef for a dinner party, it elevates the occasion to something truly unforgettable.
