    I already ate a piece of the fried goat cheese before I could snap this picture. Edible flowers!

    I can't say enough good things about Chef Sebastian. He is incredibly professional, great spirit and makes his food with love! The portions were big, he did all the dishes, packed up the leftovers for us to keep. He made our dinner an amazing experience we will never forget. I highly recommend Sebastian for your next dinner party!

    Traditional Waliser Geschnetzeltes (sliced veal strips, white wine, cream, and demi glace and mushrooms)

    We ordered all three entrees for this past weekend (couldn't choose just one). This was our 2nd time ordering because we were very pleased with the first order. And I'm glad we did because the food did not disappoint! The veal was very tender and the sauce perfectly seasoned. The ribs and bbq sauce was also done very well. I'm impressed with Chef Sebastian's ability to cook a wide variety of foods so well. Food was packaged well to pick up and eat at home. Looking forward to the days of being able to have parties so Chef Sebastian can cater for me!

    Sauerbraten! Generous portions!  Authentic German dish made to perfection!  Can't wait to try other culinary delights!

    Thank you Chef for this amazing authentic German meal! Packaged beautifully and delivered to my front door!! I cannot wait for more culinary delights! Thank you!

    Salmon

    Chef Seb was absolutely incredible! He came out to Riverhead to cook for my friends and I celebrating a bachelorette party. The food was to die for, we had the 3 different types of bruschetta, along with a poke bowl for apps. Then we had either steak or salmon for our main course, both were out of this world, he topped off the night with creme brulee which was a perfect end to a perfect night! Chef Seb cleaned up like he was never there but left us with full and satisfied bellies! Will definitely be booking him again soon! CHEF SEB, THANK YOU!!!

    Tiramisu - Sebastian learned how to make my brother's favorite for his birthday!

    Chef Sebastian is incredible!! He came to our rental house during COVID for my brother's birthday. He was very safe and wore a mask the whole time. He incorporated all of our requests and even learned how to make tiramisu for the occasion, which was AMAZING (we were fighting for more)! Sebastian was so personable, the food was incredible, and we appreciate how careful he was during these crazy times. Looking forward to having him cook for us again!!

    Delicious dessert !

    Chef Sebastian was amazing! He cooked for my brother and his now fiance on the night of their engagement. My brother has not stopped raving about how amazing the food was, and he can be pretty critical about his meals. The personalized menu was an adorable touch. He was not at all intrusive and the kitchen was cleaner afterwards than it was when he got there! We highly recommend using Chef Sebastian.

    Chef Sebastian's menu

    I had the pleasure of having Chef Sebastian cook us a private meal for my Mom's 60th birthday and it was so delicious! He has very prompt and accommodated one vegetarian in our party without issue. He was amazingly easy to deal with and kept in contact with us regularly leading up to the event. He described each course in lovely detail but was not at all intrusive, and afterwards the kitchen was spotless. I would highly highly recommend!!!

I've met, mentored, trained, worked along side of, for and with amazing groups of individuals all encompassing this world of creatives. So this brings me to this...how did I not discover Jason's Kitchen until recently? Where has this Chef been and why has he not blown up bigger than he has?!?! Jason is actually a classmate of mine from my hometown in New Jersey. I've followed him lightly on social media platforms through his culinary journey from birth of his unfathomable determination and skill to break out on his own - a self taught Chef running a full service catering company. Encompassing Private and Personal dining experiences in the luxury of your private home or event space, Chef Jason brings not only his complete professionalism, but also a mind blowing culinary exploration of perfectly balanced ingredients that not only touch each of your five senses, but envokes a feeling of complete bliss. Each dish is thought out with culinary precision and executed beautifully. You can taste each ingredient as it rolls around your mouth and tongue. Balanced with the simplicity of what brought this dish to concept. This culinary journey his menu takes you on is unreal. I have never worked for or with a more talented Chef, who's personal energy is calm and humble, and confident not cocky. We had a dinner party to celebrate a birthday and a divorce with 9 close friends. Chef Jason, his Sous Chef June, and our lovely servers Karl and Cara really made this evening special. Everything flowed seamlessly. Any anxiety I had walked out the door as soon as this team went to work. It was a quiet calm and focused energy. They also didn't mind me being in the kitchen watching and tasting and asking a million questions. I can not recommend enough Jason's Kitchen for your next event. Exceptional! Thank you Chef Jason and Sous June. You blew our minds away!

    Never have I ever been more disappointed... that Yelp doesn't let users give more than 5 stars…read more Because Jason's Kitchen deserves at least 100. My now-husband and I were searching for chefs to cater our small, intimate wedding of 13 people in our home. We found Jason on Yelp and from his first friendly email and sample menu, we knew it was a perfect fit. Thank you, Yelp! It is not hyperbole when I tell you that Jason's Kitchen is some of the best food you will ever eat. Jason and June are phenomenal chefs; to eat their Michelin Star-worthy food in your own home feels like a decadent privilege reserved for royalty. A few of our favorite dishes were the yellowtail crudo (to die for), tuna tartare (floated up to heaven), mini french onion soup bites (became reincarnated), burrata salad (was reborn), paella (lived a full other life), and rack of lamb with pesto sauce (found enlightenment). They worked with attentiveness, diligence, and grace, but what was most impressive was the down-to-earth, calm, and good-natured attitude throughout the night. The spectacular food AND their presence was truly an amazing addition to our day. Special shout-out to Jason for being a fellow Petty fan. The server, Marybeth, and the bartender, Anthony, carried the same good-natured, relaxed, and kind presence. Marybeth was gracious and friendly, and I swear my kitchen was cleaner at the end of the night than before. I only had a vacuum and small dustpan and brush on-hand and Marybeth used that little brush to clean everything because she didn't want to disturb us with too much noise with the vacuum. The small things! Anthony prepared copious amounts of cocktails with a smile and a good laugh throughout the day and evening. The drinks were as smooth as his pours and I am fairly certain every family member personally bonded with him in a way that I wouldn't be surprised if he is invited to another family wedding. Or a golf match. Overall, my husband and I agree that Jason's Kitchen was the best decision we made on that day, as well as deciding to spend our lives together. I'm now scheming other events we can have just to work with Jason's Kitchen again. 1 month wedding anniversary? And then again for our 2 months? Jason, we'll be in touch. In all seriousness, I would like to extend the most heartfelt thank you to this team. We are beyond grateful for your help to make our day the most special. For everyone else, why are you still reading this? BOOK NOW! You won't regret it!

We called Olivia after speaking with many caterers about about approach, cuisine and budget, and we were honestly getting a bit defeated. My first conversation with Olivia was so incredibly refreshing in that I told her we are trying to decide between tacos or barbeque and she responded with a very effortless, "why choose?". This immediately put me at ease as we started to brainstorm together. All other caterers were now subpar. She crafted a beautiful menu for us that included mini (single-bite) sized tacos as part of the hors d'oeuvres and an upscale barbeque with hometown roots for the entree. Our guests have not stopped RAVING about our food (strong accolades for the BBQ still rolling in from our Texas and Tennessee-native guests, so you know it was great!). We received a truly personalized experience with Olivia. She even stepped in to work with us directly when we had questions and get saleswoman was unavailable! From the first conversation through the tasting and our wedding, Olivia was one of our top vendors. Her saleswoman, Christina, was excellent at offering advice and ideas as well as suggestions from other events they'd catered (either at 501 or otherwise). On staff, Olivia also has a food design team member who created the most instagram-worthy displays! Definitely an added bonus. Would 10/10 use and recommend Olivia!

    I hired Chef Aless for my husband's birthday on 1/26/21 - as indoor dining was still closed in NYC,…read moreand way too cold for outdoor dining, I opted to have Chef Aless come by so we could have the restaurant experience at home. From the first time I got in touch with her, Chef Aless was always prompt with her responses - as it was my first time ever doing anything like this, she helped curate a menu for my husband and I based on our likes/dislikes. I had also gone back to her to switch up a couple items, which she had no problem with either - really appreciate the flexibility! On the day of, she came by a bit early (which was a non-issue for us considering we were idling by at home), and was very efficient as soon as she stepped in - we were served some delicious hors d'oeuvres (fig and brie crisps were divine!), an appetizer (truffle burrata and arugula, with a delicious pomegranate molasses dressing), second course (crab cakes with mango slaw, always a favorite in my book), main course (a perfectly medium rare Pat LaFrieda steak), some sides (a decadent sauce for the steak, creamed spinach and potatoes lyonnaise; if you coudln't tell, we wanted to replicate the NYC steakhouse experience), and lastly, chocolate mousse for dessert (needless to say, it was amazing). And best of all, she left the kitchen spotless, which was much appreciated. I also want to note that it's important to clarify what you're looking for when hiring a private chef, especially as a first timer (like me) - I thought Chef Aless was going to cook everything from start to finish at our apartment, however she actually came by with everything mostly prepared, and left the finishing touches for last. Granted, not everyone has a fully equipped kitchen so I totally understand her coming pre-prepped, but considering my husband and I both love cooking and have a nearly fully-equipped kitchen, we would've loved to see her in action and use the opportunity to pick up some pro-tips. All in all, Chef Aless was an absolute pleasure to work and speak with, and I'm so happy to have found her. If indoor dining is still closed off in the future, I will definitely be keeping her in mind for more special occasions.

The food is authentic and you can tell the chef who I believe is also the owner takes so much pride in her food and it shows.

What an amazing experience and the staff made us feel so welcome we even booked our Christmas party there! Amazing hospitality please keep the good work and we will see you again in December!
