She listened to our requests and added her creative flair and culinary experience. The result was epic and left all guests very impressed and absolutely ecstatic. In addition to the quality of the ingredients, and the fantastic flavor, the presentation was pure art. Highly recommend chef Francesca for catered events.

I've happily eaten at all her restaurants in San Diego but to be able to have her curate an at-home or in-venue experience is a delicious treat that I would recommend to anyone without hesitation. Plus, I always keep some of her yummy filled gnocchi in my freezer when I need a homey meal in a pinch.

There are no shortage of great things to say about Chef Josh. We've used him twice now for…read moredifferent celebrations and he has knocked it out of the park each time. In fact, after his latest visit we all agreed we needed to start bringing him in quarterly. Chef's cooking style is best described as transformative. He takes ingredients you'd never dream of being the star of the dish and makes it the most delicious thing you've ever tasted. Our last dinner we reqested to be completely vegetarian and he did not disappoint. Even the non-vegetarian at the dinner was blown away and left being the perfect amount of full. My husband avoids certain veggies in our day to day (texture) and the way Chef Josh cooks - well we've never left a plate bare, I can tell you that much. And when Chef Josh isn't looking.. we may have licked our plates clean. Pickling, crisping, pureeing, caramelizing - everything he puts in front of you "WOWs". Besides the food he serves, which is well worth the money, Josh's service is unparalleled. He is prompt, friendly and wonderful to chat with. He brings everything in and does all clean up as if he was never even there. Whether it's a date night, an intimate gathering or a group to impress - I would recommend hiring Chef Josh 110%. If you're even considering a private chef, look no further because there truly is no better!

4.999 stars. Chef Josh made my 40th birthday party memorable and amazing for 22 people at my home…read more We asked a few questions to start and knew he was the right chef for us right away. He doesn't have a set menu, but sources the ingredients the morning of depending on what looks good and what's in season. We had three or four passed appetizers, a salad course, a grouper / risotto course, and a caramel bar for dessert. Everything was so delicious and all of the guests raved. I have no idea how he was able to cook all of that food for that many people in our home kitchen and make it so flavorful. To keep all of the food at a perfect temperature must have been extremely challenging. Chef Josh was such a cool person also, entertaining, always happy, and so respectful of our home. Thanks so much, Josh. We hope to have you help us out again at our next event.

Karen and Will are an incredible team: Attentive, professional, warm, and exceptionally talented in the kitchen. From the very beginning, they made the entire process seamless and stress-free, helping with planning, menu customization, and ensuring every detail was thoughtfully handled. They completely took the pressure off hosting my wife's 40th birthday celebration, allowing me to actually enjoy the evening alongside our guests. Most importantly, they made my wife feel incredibly special, celebrated, and pampered throughout the entire experience. The food was beautifully presented, perfectly prepared, and genuinely memorable. Our guests are still talking about it. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and will absolutely be booking them again for future celebrations. Highly, highly recommend!

Now that I have your attention- Chef Monique created a fabulous dinner menu for 8 people for my 40th birthday in a San Diego AirBnB! We easily customized a Cali/Italian Fusion menu for dietary preferences (ex: steak vs shrimp, vegan guest) and she made it happen! Everything was served fresh, tasted delicious, each course was lovely, and we've all been dreaming of her dishes since. She was beyond easy to work with, reasonably priced, very friendly, professional, and left the kitchen spotless WITH extra leftovers in the fridge!

Chef Monique was responsive, professional, and creative in customizing a menu to suit all of us and her food was amazing. The biggest hits were the sliders and chicken and waffles but my personal favorite was her Caesar salad dressing which I wish I ordered a gallon of! Chef was open to cooking onsite or doing drop off catering and we went with the latter as we can be a chaotic bunch :) Definitely will work with Chef Monique again!

We were able to make a reservation quite easily online. As soon as we arrived, we were able to find parking without any hassle. Once we were at the restaurant, we were seated quite promptly. Since I was craving for pizza I got the Bufalina pizza. My husband got the white sauce, Italian sausage pizza. We both were really hungry and couldn't wait to dig in. The pizzas came out pretty quickly. The presentation was great. I did request for some marinara on the side. My pizza was absolutely delicious and authentic just like the pizza that I tried in Naples. My husband liked his pizza too, although the ricotta was a little bit sour. For dessert, we got the tiramisu and split it amongst ourselves. Overall, this was a great experience and if you're looking for some authentic Italian pizza, this is the place!

The space is very homey and the staff is very nice. The space looked small but if you turn the corner, more tables! We started by listening to their specials and the watermelon salad caught our attention. As appetizers we ordered the salad and calamari. The salad was refreshing and the watermelon was sweet, just what we need during this heat! The calamari quality cooked perfectly and not greasy at all! Now for the stars of the show..the pizza! We ordered the Giordanina and the prosciutto pizza! I want to say I dont usually eat the crust when I eat pizza I am not a fan but today..I was proven wrong! I ate every single piece of that slice. The bread was cooked right and every single ingredient was fresh and you can taste it all! If you are in the area, or not because honestly the drive is worth it, stop by I promise you it won't disappoint!
