Chef Matty provided meals for our three day company retreat, and not only did he come through with…read moresome really good cuisine throughout (don't miss out on his Mediterranean!), he delighted with some really nice surprises along the way (no spoilers here). He also made sure he took good care of the one vegetarian in our crew, as well as being very attentive to some food allergies we had in our group. His pricing was fair, and he was super prompt and flexible. Our comms were a bit hit or miss as we dialed in details a couple months before the event - but once we got to within a week or so, and certainly as we were going through the event, his comms were on point. He provided a bartender on our first night, and that was probably the only place there was room for improvement, as the bartender wasn't very personable, and left without saying goodbye or cleaning up after himself. We'd definitely use Matty again next time we're out in the desert!

The chicken was chicken legs covered with (bottled) BBQ sauce, the baked beans tasted like they were out of a can. the ribs were tough, not fall off the bone good. No clean up, though he said he would be by the next morning to clean up. The chef is a bit crazy....I did not want to write this knowing he could retaliate. If he shows up at my door again, I am calling the police.

It was easy to email, setup what we wanted, and book. Chef was on time, very professional, and made a delicious and impressive meal. Chef and his CDC were great. They came in, assembled the gas grill paella setup (indoors and it worked great, not smokey). His assistant offered to make us all a cocktail with ingredients we had on hand which was really nice. They even brought fancy ice cubes for our drinks. When the paella was ready, chef brought it out for us to see and take photos, it was like art! The paella pan was HUGE for 11 people! We got the just the paella dinner, and it was a lot of food. They served us bread, a salad, and then the paella course. We got the classic seafood paella and it was delicious! SO MUCH seafood. We each got a lobster tail, 2 scallops, clams, mussels, calamari, octopus, shrimp..... it was incredible. The whole night felt like such a great value and the presentation was so impressive. I wouldn't hesitate to have chef William back for any future getaways to Palm Springs!

The food was abundant, delicious, and beautifully presented. The variety of choices was exceptional, and the made-to-order omelets were truly a highlight of the event. The wide selection of fresh ingredients allowed everyone to customize their omelet exactly to their liking. One especially thoughtful touch that impressed everyone was that, after placing an omelet order, the hot dish was personally delivered to guests wherever they were seated. Trevor and Ethan arrived promptly at 8:30 a.m. for my 11:00 a.m. party and immediately began preparing everything from scratch. They carefully cleaned and plated fresh fruit, arranged an assortment of breads, and created a stunning brunch display. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and organization made the entire experience seamless and stress-free. At the end of the event, they left my kitchen spotless. My friends were so impressed that several are already planning a BBQ gathering just so we can have Trevor cook for us again!

Jacob and his team are very flexible and will accommodate any dietary restrictions.

For serving, they were able to find everything in the kitchen at our Airbnb with ease. They cleaned up the kitchen and loaded the dishwasher leaving us with absolutely no clean up. Jacob even went as far as to taking a baby scorpion, that happened to be in the kitchen, outside for us. Highly recommend Your Sous Chef for your next event!

He brought all of the ingredients and the cooking equipment, occasionally entertained us while the food was cooking, and cleaned up after himself. I mean spotless.

We didn't think we could finish the large dish but I may have had three portions. Definite 5 stars for Chef Ray.

I interviewed several private chefs to cook a dinner for 14 and knew almost instantly that Ray was my guy. As the dining table and kitchen are in close proximity, I knew chef would necessarily be part of the evening and I wanted someone whose personality would vibe with our unruly, irreverent, straight/gay tribe of bff's. What was served was superb. The food was yummy, scrumptious, delectable. All the words. And it was a real challenge to devise a menu that accommodated numerous personalities and dislikes. So, rest assured Ray is creative, resourceful and very skilled. But HOW it was served - with gregarious warmth and humor - truly made the evening special. Everyone totally fell in love with Ray and swooned over his culinary offerings. Days later, I was still receiving gushy texts about the food, the chef and the magical atmosphere. Thank you Ray, for helping turn a potentially crappy moment into a lovely, unforgettable one. I will take a little credit for having the common sense to choose you :)
