    Chef Eric B - Heirloom tomato and burrata salad

    Chef Eric B

    (52 reviews)

    This review is long overdue!…read more Eric was a joy to work with. He was prompt with communication, and provided perfect recommendations for my private, birthday party dinner. His menu selections were top notch, and my husband and I were thrilled with the outcome. We did 3 appetizers before the 4 course meal began. We did the elote (street corn) appetizer, tuna tartare, and lamb chop. Of note, I don't eat lamb at all, but Eric's Lamb chop was AN AMAZING FLAVOR BOMB! I appreciated that him and his server showed up prepared with all of their supplies (and small plates for serving). For dinner, we had the heirloom tomato and burrata salad, followed by the char grilled octopus, then the Australian Wagyu steak with creme brûlée to finish. The menu was superb, Eric presented his gorgeous plates with detail and attention, and (of course) they cleaned up everything after! This was a PHENOMENAL experience, and we are already looking to book Eric again for my husband's birthday! Eric, you are an artist and amazing chef! Thank you for offering this wonderful experience and making my birthday memorable!

The food was absolutely incredible with generous portions. I highly recommend also upgrading to the server, who served, refilled our glasses, and made us feel like royalty. Eric and his server were great to talk to, executed flawlessly, and left our kitchen spotless before leaving. One of the best meals of our lives, hands down.

    After a major health setback and a sudden serious surgery in our little family, we came to find…read moreourselves in a predicament. The predicament involved having the joy sucked out of food due to a VERY restricted diet. What does 2 informal foodies do with a new lifestyle that consists of staying under 15 grams of saturated fat per day, under 1500 mg of salt per day (that's under 1 tsp), kicking out cholesterol-high foods like shrimp and red meat and other general un-fun new rules? We looked for help! We ate pretty healthy to begin with...but with so many new rules, we went looking for culinary expertise. I tried meal services but was amazed at how limited those are to diets like Keto that are the exact opposite of what the Cardiologist was telling us to do. Enter in Whole Health Everyday which I found right here on Yelp. Chef Rebecca Club, the owner, spent time with me on the phone and in a short period of time, was able to assess exactly what I needed. She matched us with Chef Robert, a culinary genius that literally brought sunlight back to our dreary diet. On Thursdays, Chef Robert would cook for us for the week, in our kitchen, wearing a mask because of our immunocompromised situation (check with Chef Rebecca if you have this issue b/c not all Chefs will do this) for the whole week. He would make family meals in my own large casserole tupperwares that we could then assemble for breakfast/lunch/dinner. I need a whole paragraph to describe Chef Robert's special dishes. He makes a tray of ground turkey and black bean enchiladas in a verde sauce that will make you cry! He makes egg white bites that are better anything I've ever had before and these are NOT made with heavy cream! I could literally go on and on but maybe I'll just leave you with some of my fave dishes... *Ginger chicken breast bahn mi with jalepenos, picked daikon and carrots *Tilapia tacos with cabbage, pico de gallo, and yogurt crema *Japanese chicken meat balls with sweet potatoes and brussel sprouts *Tuna Poke with mango and avocado served with cucumber slices and low fat/salt chips *Chili con turkey, kidney beans, peppers, avocado and cheese I can only imagine what Chef Robert could do if he could cook with as much salt and fat as he liked! The process for our weekly sessions looked like this: 1) Chef Robert would email us over the weekend with meal suggestions 2) We choose what we want, or ask for more suggestions until we finalize the meals for that week 3) He sends us a shopping list by Tuesday night 4) We order grocery pickup for the things on the list and have everything in our fridge by Thursday morning 5) Chef Robert comes Thursday morning, cooks like crazy (sometimes using the grill outside, our Vitamix etc) 6) Chef Robert shows us where everything is, what sauce goes with what, how to assemble a sushi handroll (yes he would make us sodium light sushi and taught us how to roll it) etc. 7) Chef Robert would clean the kitchen so it looked perfect before he left 8) I would receive an invoice from Whole Health Everyday for that session, it would hit my credit card and I would repeat the next week I really cannot recommend Whole Health Everyday enough. I'd give them 10 stars if I could!

If you're looking to have professional food for dinner so you never have to cook, this is where it's at. I used to spend so many hours agonizing about cooking and cooking myself but now, it's done and I have more time back for myself and less mental load.

    Personal Chef Peter - Perfect Egg Toast with Kaluga Hybrid Caviar on Top

    Personal Chef Peter

    Chef Peter is the real deal. I contacted him to cater our firm's holiday party this year. From…read morefirst contact to the two months leading up to the event, he was responsive and kind. He worked with me on a menu and he delivered my vision. Even with extreme circumstances (another vendor broke our garage door 24 hours before the event) Chef Peter and his crew took it in stride. They were on time and hauled their heavy equipment in and got straight to work. He was basically cooking/grilling on one side of our building (back patio), having to run back forth to the interior kitchen and sink. He and his crew worked SO hard that night. They are very professional. Every plate was perfect, they cleared the tables and made sure everything was spotless when they left. I also hired Jacob the Bartender (he works with Chef Peter) and WOW! Crafted cocktails and excellent service. Every person who was late to my party was sat and had a drink in their hand in less than a few minutes. Jacob was a pleasure to work with. Great bartender. I could not ask for a better duo for the night. Also big thanks to Tomas and Erick - their waitstaff. Amazing night they pulled off. I'm a perfectionist. Type A host. I'm very particular on how I throw my parties and Chef Peter surpassed my expectations & more. My entire firm will not shutup about how amazing the food and service was. The party was a hit and I believe it was because of the food & bar. I will 100% hire this team again for future events.

    Exceptional service, easy to work with and very responsive. Everything you look for in working with…read morea private chef for an event. The food and presentation were outstanding! So glad I was lucky enough to find Chef Peter. Our event couldn't have gone better!

In our case, she cooked in our home on Tuesday, making a beautifully plated hot meal for us all that evening, and filled our refrigerator with fresh food for the rest of the week. Most weeks Gina prepped: Fresh cut up fruit & veg for snacks 1 make ahead breakfast item (breakfast burritos, smoothie packs, etc.) 1 hot lunch I could re-heat for school lunches (like pasta dishes & Mexican beef & rice bowls) 2 additional complete dinners with sides 1 prepared marinade that I could use to marinate a protein later in the week, as well as veggie sides prepped and ready to grill or roast quickly 1 "treat" snack, dessert or quick bread Our family goes through a LOT of food with teenaged boys and athletes, and Gina made feeding them all healthy food throughout the week possible without completely overwhelming me. She adjusted well to allergies and other dietary restrictions (we are a gluten-free household and eat a LOT of protein), and was always open to suggestions and trying new things that worked well for us. Truly, I don't know what we would have done without her during that period. Her food is delicious, nutritious and was well loved by our family. Try her for yours...you really can't go wrong!

    In today's busy world, finding time to grocery shop, meal prep, and cook is very difficult for our…read morefamily. We always seem to order out more than anticipated just for ease and convenience, but are left feeling guilty due to the fact that take out is less than ideal for the healthy lifestyle we want to lead. Enter Chef Gina and her amazing company Quality Thyme. She takes the time to understand our nutrition needs, cuisines we love, and custom prepares meals for our family that fit all of those requirements. She is personable, punctual, extremely professional and the food she makes is amazing!! Every dish is full of good nutrients, fresh ingredients, and the whole family loves it. I would recommend her to everyone!

Joe, Laura, and Sergio were incredibly professional, warm, and attentive from start to finish. They made everything feel seamless and special -- not just a dinner, but a true experience. The curated menu was outstanding. Every single dish was beautifully prepared and absolutely delicious. We were completely stuffed by the end but kept going back for more because it was just that good. Beyond the incredible food, what really stood out was how special they made the evening feel. It was relaxed, celebratory, and truly memorable -- exactly what I had hoped for. I'm so grateful we chose The Branded Chef for such an important milestone. We would absolutely book Joe and his team again without hesitation!

From the moment they arrived, they brought a calm, professional, and genuinely warm energy to our home. It always feels like we are being hosted by longtime friends who just happened to be incredibly talented chefs when they are serving. Every single dish was perfection -- beautifully presented, thoughtfully prepared, and bursting with flavor. Beyond the food, what truly stood out was their kindness. They were attentive yet never intrusive, and they handled everything effortlessly: setup, service, and cleanup. It allowed us to sit back, relax, and enjoy our celebration without lifting a finger. If you're considering hiring a private chef for a special occasion, look no further. Joe and his wife, Laura helped make this milestone birthday unforgettable, and we are already looking for an excuse to book them again!
