One of the best things about Gil is knowing that he only uses ingredients he trusts as healthy (or the better option). He does his research and you can expect nothing less than top quality when it comes to his cooking! His dishes are one of a kind, and he can make dessert taste better than its' sweet and sugar counterpart. Diet restrictions are no challenge for him either, and you won't find any other meals like his! Get your tummy ready cause you'll be in for a treat!

Chef Ronnie came to our house with his assistant Lisa (I think - sorry!) and they were both just awesome. Ronnie is super down-to-earth and totally friendly. My friends and I were super obnoxious and loud and asking ridiculous questions and he seemed to have fun right along with us. Also, and maybe this should have come first, but his food was also absolutely amazing. He worked with my husband for almost two months coming up with a menu that I would love...and I did. Wow. The first course of a salad was amazing and it just got better from there to the pesto pasta, the shrimp dish, the steak and then two desserts! We were absolutely stuffed. He also left the kitchen cleaner than before he got there! I would highly recommend him. Definitely 5 stars!

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.

Working with and learning from Chef Marie was a 5 star experience! Marie did an outstanding job of helping us celebrate my wife's birthday by teaching our family how to prepare a delicious French/Vietnamese meal, and the entire experience was fun and delightful. She offered many options for the menu and helped me select a spectacular assortment of flavors! From beginning to end, working with Marie was easy, professional and wonderful. She was punctual, communicative, budget friendly, and provided great ideas for our menu and is an excellent teacher. We learned to cook shrimp spring rolls, gyoza, her magic delicious sauce, Seabass, mushroom risotto, and Creme Brule. Each item was fun to prepare and turned out perfectly! Marie was a pleasure to be with, our kids loved the experience, and she cleaned up everything to perfection.

From start to finish, the entire experience was seamless and far exceeded my expectations--especially as this was my first time hiring a private chef. Chef Marie was incredibly responsive and easy to work with during the booking process, which immediately put me at ease. On the day of the event, she arrived right on time and brought such a warm, kind, and professional presence into the home. The food itself was outstanding--beautifully prepared, thoughtfully executed, and absolutely delicious. You could truly taste the quality and care in every dish. What impressed me even more was how much she handled behind the scenes. She prepared much of the meal in advance, served everything effortlessly, and left the kitchen spotless. It allowed me to fully relax and enjoy the time with my family, which is truly priceless. This was a 5-star experience in every sense, and I would not hesitate to book Chef Marie again for future gatherings. If you're considering a private chef for any occasion, I wholeheartedly recommend her--you will not be disappointed.

We also enjoyed a delicious caprese salad with buttered toasted baguettes, followed by flavorful chicken masala served with rice, roasted veggies, and naan bread. For dessert, he made my favorite: yellow cake with chocolate frosting, made even more spectacular with fresh whipped cream and berries. Beyond the food, Daniel is so personable and fun--he created a warm, relaxed, and entertaining atmosphere throughout the evening. He even cleaned the kitchen afterwards, which was such a thoughtful gesture.
