Shrimp Cannelloni
Holly S.

Paco was our chef for my birthday party in Temecula. Every dish he made was excellent and he was such a professional! Highlights were the shrimp cannelloni and the steak with vegetable risotto! So delicious! Paco is charming and worth the investment!

Had my 50th bday weekend in a beautiful chateau in Temecula and it would not have been as memorable if not for the AMAZING CHEF Paco and his culinary creations. He crafted phenomenal meals for lunch, dinner, brunch and dinner for 2 days. I have to tell you first, he is so kind, easy to work with, so accommodating, Professional, clean and of course gifted with cooking skills. He took us on a culinary journey that every single one of my 40 guests was raving about. The food not only tasted great, prepared and coordinated in perfect timing that all were served at the right time and temperature. The dishes were made with the freshest and best ingredients. We had salads, wraps, fruit salads, paninis, charcuterie, Spanish egss, bacon, bread, crossaints, pork tenderloin, steaks, tri tips, carbonara, seafood paella, shrimp risotto just to name some. Every single one was DELICIOUS! Successful event because of him!

Tarta de Chocolate with Berries and Ice Cream, perfect!
Patricia B.

Wow. Our party of five must have said 'wow' about a thousand times throughout our delicious and beautiful meal from Chef Paco. We were genuinely blown away with every single course. The taste was 1000/10 and the presentation was so beautiful and thoughtfully plated. We had the salmon tartare, spare ribs, garlic shrimp, caprese salad, filet mignon, and tarta de chocolate for dessert. Every single dish was incredible, I would highly recommend using him for your next event - you truly won't regret it. Thank you again for a perfect night, Chef, it was one of the best meals of our lives!

Carbonara

Paco was absolutely fabulous! He came out to do a private dinner for my bachelorette party. He crafted a 5 course menu after I picked out a few items from a few of his menus that sparked my interest. Everything was delicious! 10/10 highly recommend

We were lucky enough to get two meals, breakfast and dinner and both were fantastic. Flavor filled, beautifully presented and utterly delicious! Bravo Chef Paco you were amazing!

Paco is the best chef! Every dish was made perfectly and served perfectly! One of the best meals I've had!!!

Chef Gonzalez prepping Chilean Sea bass entrees.

Chef Gonzalez is absolutely AMAZING!!! All around, from beginning to end, his execution was perfect and his dishes were scrumptious! Easy communication, punctual and thoughtful, as one in our party had dietary restrictions, that he happily accommodated. Chef Gonzalez prepared 2 meals services for our party (breakfast and dinner) and did not disappoint. Often, dishes look great back lack in flavor, but not with Chef Gonzalez's dishes. Every bite was well seasoned with complex flavors shining through with our entrees. Even the salad was divine! Chef Gonzalez was a big highlight for our group getaway and it was a pleasure eating his food!

Chef Paco in his element

Fantastic chef. Had him for a dinner party and he made almost the best meal I have ever had--in or out of a restaurant. Every course he made was delicious and loved by our party of 12. He accommodated vegetarians in our group with wonderful substitutes. Also he's a lovely person and generous with telling us details about how he made our meal.

Pasta carbonara appetizer
Monica M.

We had an amazing experience with Chef Paco. We were a group of 7 in town for a bachelorette party. The food was amazing, Paco was easy to work with, and extremely professional. We had scallops, pasta carbonara, an arugula citrus salad, short rib with mash, and tiramisu. Everything was beautifully presented and delicious. Our group especially loved the scallops and accompanying sauce and were impressed with how tasty the salad course was. I would definitely recommend Paco for a private chef dinner.

See all

From start to finish, the experience was seamless - communication leading up to the event was clear, friendly, and super reassuring. I did some other research on different companies in the area and this was the easiest to order from and get estimates. Day of, the chefs showed up early, got set up quickly, and were ready to go right on time. The food was fantastic and there was so much of it - we were still enjoying leftovers for many meals afterwards. Beyond the food, the entertainment really made the night. The chefs were hilarious, engaging, and kept the whole group laughing with plenty of surprises sprinkled throughout the evening. This is such a great option for a big group and made the celebration feel extra special without having to leave the house. Highly recommend booking two chefs if you can - it keeps service moving quickly and doubles the entertainment value. Would absolutely book again and recommend to anyone looking to do something fun and memorable.

Not sure how we didn't think to do this sooner, but everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves and we plan to use them again. For reference our grouped from age 5-83 and everyone was happy with the entertainment and food. They went above and beyond to make this a special event for our family. Thank you Hibachi catering!
