30a Private Chef - Chef Nick putting the finishing touches on the rum cake

30a Private Chef

(4 reviews)

We had the best dinner with Chef Nick! It was so much fun to watch him prep all the food and see…read moreeverything come together. This is our third time hiring a private chef and this was hands down the best meal we've had. Everything was truly unique and something we could have not made on our own. Nick puts a lot of time, energy and thought into everything he prepares. It was a pleasure interacting with him and he made everything look easy (we know it not!!) Could not have had a better evening celebrating a couple birthdays with friends. If we are ever back in the area, he will be our first phone call. HIGHLY recommended!!

How do you summarize our amazing evening in a simple review?…read moreChef Nick was incredible! He worked his tail off and the entire meal was amazing. My personal favorite was the kabobs and the dips. So flavorful! I am so thankful for having him at our party. There is no way I could have lived in the moment had an amazing time with our Daughter and Son-in-law without him. I am forever grateful! He is worth every penny. I also want to share what some of our guests had to say: SO GOOD! delish!!! wish i could have that meal again right now Everything tastes delicious, I liked the amount of variety but everything went very well together and they were all so kind and accommodating Very professional Chef and staff! Very accommodating and able to adjust on the fly. Presentation was on point and beautifully displayed. Great overall experience! Five Stars! Everything was a 10!!! Absolutely loved everything he made and I have already given his name to 2 of my friends that live in Pensacola! I wished he lived in CO.! The charcuterie boards were beautifully arranged and delicious. All the kebabs were very tasty though the beef and lobster were my favorites. The wedding cake was very good. Probably my least favorite thing were the beignets, but I was so full at that point they were overkill! The chef and team were all very friendly and attentive. I thought the timing for everything seemed on point and they were well organized and worked neatly. Just WAY TOO MUCH food! Either we ate less than what was foreseeable or they overestimated. the chicken was pretty good and the chickory coffee dip for the beignets was amazing Chef nick prepared an amazing meal for our wedding. I couldn't imagine a better chef or meal for our special night! The food was absolutely delicious and thoughtfully prepared. It was so amazing getting to see him work and the presentation of the food was just as amazing as it tasted!!

Chef Shaun gave my coworkers and I the best personal dining experience at…read moreour workplace. Chef Shaun was very professional while cooking tacos with all fresh ingredients. I've never had a private meal prepared right in front of me and ready to eat right off the grill, it felt special and very accommodating to our schedule. If you're looking for a private dining experience with great food and professionalism, Chef Shaun is the way to go!

We love to eat out and this past year has been take-out rather than eat-out. Let's face it, eating…read morefreshly prepared food presented properly is just not the same as the alternative. We have never had the experience of a Personal Chef and for our 41st Valentines Day it was a past due experience. Luckily I made a great choice when I contacted Chef Shaun Michael. He sent several menu examples. I chose one, asked for and received approval for a couple of changes that would personalize the menu even more.for my wife. As advertised Chef arrived on time and brought everything needed, prepared the meal as we watched and carried on a great conversation. We were given detailed explanations of all the ingredients. Shaun shared his culinary education and past positions with us as well. The meal was fantastic, Shaun was as personable and interactive as could be and we had perhaps the best Valentines Day dinners, yet. I'd recommend Chef Shaun Michael to couples or families who are covid weary and want a great meal prepared by a fun (qualified)) Chef. I can't imagine you would be disappointed. We will do this again, for sure.

Jekyll - A Private Chef

Jekyll - A Private Chef

Bottom line up front: hire Chef Jekyll, he is a fantastic chef with an even better sense of…read moreprofessionalism and poise. When I say Chef Jekyll set the bar for private dining, I mean he set the bar not just as a chef, which he certainly did, but also as a host, waiter, clean-up staff...everything. I hired Chef Jekyll as a surprise for my wife's birthday--he worked with me for weeks on the menu (my wife has lots of dietary restrictions) as well as the planning for the actual day. He also helped me keep it a surprise and when serving the actual meal--I mean this, he is the GOLD standard for how this should be done--he was both part of our meal and, at the same time, not. He was charming and present when in the room, but also made sure we felt we had plenty of privacy to enjoy each other's company and the meal (this was not a particularly easy task, given the meal was prepared and served in a 1.5 bedroom airbnb). Finally, he cleaned up everything and left the kitchen better than when he arrived. I would absolutely--no reservations whatsoever--hire him again. He also hosts experiences on his boat--would do that in a heartbeat next time we're in Destin. BOOK CHEF JEKYLL.

I had inquired about meals and was planning on hiring the chef. I had questions regarding his menu…read moredifferent services because my friends have two different completely different taste pallets as well as all allergies. I sent over the chef exactly what he said which was two entrées and I also asked if they could provide I said if they couldn't buy dessert that was fine. He was completely rude and told me to go to a restaurant instead where I would be served better because I don't understand "the effort" it takes to provide meals for three people. Clearly, I understand which is why I was offering to pay for set service. I cannot believe that this man would talk down to someone so poorly Edit: responding to the owner. Do not be dishonest full story has been shown in the images. Clearly this shows you can not provide good customer service let a lone any. Report away, this is factual, based on m y experience and provided documentation
