Super amazing! The food was probably the best Indian food we’ve ever had. Very authentic. Chef Rishika also was incredibly friendly and personable. Cleaned afterwards which was such a treat.

Alicia was wonderful - warm, charming and interesting. The food was good, and the overall experience a ton of fun. Cozymeal was incredibly difficult to deal with. It took more than a year to book our dinner, which was very disappointing.

Chef Mat is absolutely amazing. He is so kind, personable, and funny—he also taught us some great tips and tricks! The food was incredibly delicious. Every course was prepared beautifully and we couldn’t believe how yummy everything was. Just perfect flavour combinations. We also have so many amazing leftovers!!!

I wanted to surprise my fiancee with an exclusive chef experience and Chef Jeff was absolutely amazing. The food was absolutely delicious and Jeff was also very conversational - which made it a delightful event. My fiancee loved it and so did I. I highly highly recommend Jeff for events like this and I am sure I will use his services again. P.S. The creme brulee that Jeff made for us - I can honestly say it's the best I have ever had!

We loved our experience with Chef Mat! The meal was excellent and some of the best Indian food we’ve had. Chef Mat was easy going and very knowledgeable. We would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a new experience or something different for a typical “going out to eat” date night. We will definitely be booming Chef Mat again. Thank you!!

Absolutely amazing experience! Highly recommend to anyone looking for a private chef for any event. Chef Jeffrey came on time, took over the kitchen and prepared the most delicious Italian meal for our group of 8. He also left the kitchen spotless! We couldn’t have asked for more. We are already planning our next Cheff Jeffrey event!

Charlene was absolutely excellent! Phenomenal class, she did a great job of explaining the dishes (along with great stories!) and keeping both of us occupied while we were cooking. Neither of us felt left out of the experience of the cooking class! The food was absolutely excellent and will be trying to make the recipes again! 10/10 Experience

We had a great dinner party (9 in total), and overall Charlene was very good; very professional, well organized, and the food was very nice. We especially liked the crabless cakes. The group was not all veg or vegan, but everyone enjoyed the food.

What a great experience, Chef Jeff was awesome! The food and presentation was fabulous. Jeff was extremely personable and friendly, he arrived on time and handled all the clean up! The best part of this experience was when Jeff explained the dishes in detail, also the portion sizes were very generous. Jeff checked in on us multiple times throughout the meal. Overall fun experience with some very tasty food! Can't wait to book again.

FAQS ABOUT PRIVATE CHEFS in Toronto

How much does a private chef in Toronto cost?

The cost of a private chef for a dinner party in Toronto depends on your group size and which culinary experience you select. Prices start at $59 per person and can exceed $100, with a discounted rate available for children’s menus. Simply choose your preferred experience, enter your guest count, and the cost will adjust automatically. Local taxes are already included in the price. Please note that changes to the menu and special requests may impact the final cost. For any questions or help with booking an in-home chef for a dinner party, our friendly concierge team is here to assist and ensure everything runs smoothly.

What is included when you hire a chef for the night?

When you hire a chef for the night, you’ll enjoy a five-star meal, from appetizers to decadent desserts. Your in-home chef will manage every detail, from hand selecting the freshest produce from the St. Lawrence Market to cleaning up afterward. Each dish is expertly prepared on-site, beautifully presented, and thoughtfully served. If your menu calls for special equipment, like a grill for a fun hibachi experience, your chef will handle that, too. Whether you’re hosting an intimate get-together or a formal engagement party, when you hire a chef for dinner, a bespoke menu and exceptional service are included.

What are the most popular cuisines with private chef experiences?

Toronto chefs are world-class, mastering cuisines as diverse as the city itself. From Little Italy’s homemade pastas to Chinatown’s bold Asian flavors and locally inspired Canadian dishes, your in-home chef will craft a menu tailored specifically to your occasion. Whether you’re hosting a family reunion with comforting dishes like smoked duck poutine or throwing an elegant affair with a multi-course, locally sourced tasting menu paired with Ontario Icewine, your private chef experience will be nothing short of extraordinary. Expect exceptional service, impeccable presentation, and a menu that showcases the very best of Toronto’s vibrant food culture.

How do I hire a chef or rent a chef?

It’s as easy to hire a chef in Toronto as it is to grab a peameal bacon sandwich at St. Lawrence Market. Just pick one of the tasty culinary experiences on this page, enter your event’s date, time, and group size, and the hard part is over. Once your booking is confirmed, your in-home chef will reach out to personalize the menu and say hey. If you need help to rent a chef near you or have any questions along the way, our friendly concierge team is here to make sure everything goes smoother than a fresh batch of butter tarts.

How much should I tip my private chef?

When you hire a private chef for your dinner party in The Six, tipping is optional and completely up to you. However, suppose your chef knocks it out of the park with their stellar service, impressive presentation, and mouthwatering dishes, like perfectly grilled pork tenderloin, sautéed seasonal greens, and a show-stopping Nanaimo bar for dessert. In that case, we suggest leaving a gratuity of 10% to 25% of the total cost.

Where do the experiences take place?

When you hire chefs to cook at your home, your culinary experience can unfold in the venue of your dreams — from a sleek condo Downtown to a charming Victorian in Cabbagetown. Provided your private chef has access to a clean and fully equipped kitchen, they’ll whip up the city’s tastiest dishes right where you are. Whether you’re indulging in grilled Atlantic lobsters lakeside in Harbourfront or planning Japanese hibachi and sake on a lush lawn in the Annex, booking an in-home chef for a dinner party lets you savor the best of Toronto’s world-class food scene without ever leaving your neighbourhood.
