Our group consisted of two vegans and two non-vegans, and there wasn't a single crumb left on anyone's plate throughout the night - everyone agreed the meal was fantastic from start to finish. In addition, Courtney was very friendly, easy to communicate/plan with in advance of the meal, professional, and punctual. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her, and if I find myself in the market for a private chef in the future, would be glad to hire her again.

Courtney worked with me on a wine friendly menu and we came up with something nice. As you can imagine friends we have known for 25 years are all over the food map but I wanted something safe but not generic and Courtney delivered. All appetizers and courses were delicious. Bacon Jam with crostini Salmon with horseradish creme fraiche Speck and Lemon ricotta crostini Salad with really fresh lemon mint vinaigrette Pasta with Pepita basil Pork tenderloin with polenta Pot au Chocolat Guests especially loved the salmon appetizer, the polenta and the pot au chocolat all had nice surprise ingredient additions to them that made them unique. Courtney was on time, served everything at the time requested, presented each course and cleaned up after making it easy to spend time with everyone. Trying to think of another excuse to have a party and we can use her again!

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.

Every dish was absolutely delicious and plated with stunning presentation. Chef Charlie even provided printed menus for each of us, adding such a thoughtful touch. Beyond the food, he was warm, conversational, and engaging--clearly putting intention and heart into every detail. We would definitely use his services again and recommend him without hesitation.

The chef messaged me himself, gave me some sample menus, allowed me some flexibility, and quoted me over yelp messaging. After reviewing several offerings , Dyce was the most professional, catering to my palate and accommodating all of my guests needs. Price will vary depending on how you want your menu, I paid about $100 per person but I tipped well over 20% for the fantastic results. The chef hand picked the ingredients day of the service. He gave me live updates on the menu changes given the offerings at the market wasn't up to his standard. A little disappointed but I trusted the chef. You can see the images below, he food was fresh, well presented, and the taste was perfect. The chef himself has plenty of experience, and you can tell he was passionate of his products. He came by to introduce himself a little bit to my guests, described each plating in detail, and cleaned up after himself before he left. Amazing. I highly highly recommend Dyce Group, all my friends wanted his contact thereafter, we all had a wonderful experience. If I had to do it again, it would be an easy repeat business with me.

With no assistants and no separation between kitchen and counter, the chef runs the entire operation alone preparing, plating, and serving each course directly to guests. The result feels less like dining out and more like being invited into a chef's private kitchen. One particularly memorable piece was halibut nigiri topped with a small portion of its own liver. The liver added a quiet richness almost buttery in depth enhancing the halibut's clean sweetness while maintaining perfect balance. Another highlight was king mackerel prepared warayaki-style, briefly touched straw fire which add a subtle aromatic smokiness on top of the mackerel flavor. I brought the Raifuku Choseimai to paired with the omakase, this is an exceptionally Junmai Daiginjo with the rice polished down to just 8%, it shows exceptional clarity and finesse, with a hint of floral aromatics, subtle fruit notes, and a very silky texture. It paired beautifully across the meal enhancing the sweetness of delicate seafood like halibut while refreshing the palate after richer bites such as toro and wagyu. Watching Masuyoshi san execute every detail from slicing fish to finishing all dishes adds a deeper appreciation for the craftsmanship behind the experience, definitely will bring a more variety of wine and sake to do a full pairing.

She made my…read morerecovery as painless as it could be, and I credit her nutritious food with helping me heal faster. Before the surgery, I sent her my doctor-provided list of foods I could and couldn't eat along with my personal preferences. She immediately created a rough template for 3 meals a day, plus snacks. Each morning, she brought my food for the day, and at night after I had finished it all, we would talk or text so that I could give her any feedback. She would adjust the next day's meals, and we did the same process each day for about 10 days. Her food was delicious, made with quality ingredients and packed well. But just as important, she was so easy to work with and, frankly, so accommodating to my smallest feedback. She was also always so quick to respond. Literally, I could text her, see the Read notification, then see her typing within seconds. This happened most of the time. I don't think I ever had to wait more than 10 minutes to get a response. Amazing! Truly, the only thing I looked forward to each day was her food - it was that good! When I was in pain and depressed, that little happiness each day made all the difference to me. There were some dark days during those 10 days of recovery, but I'll always remember her and her food with fondness.
