The chef was amazing, she allowed us to make our menu day to day which we loved. She was flexible with her times when we knew we would be out later than normal. She explained every dish to us. She also was our tour guide to the best places in the air the food was great and we had dessert with every meal. She was easy and pleasant to work with

Chef Yashira was amazing!’ She did brunch and dinner for my husband and I. Everything was immaculate and bursting with flavor! She is very knowledgeable and her services are superb! I recommend her to anyone visiting or already staying in Puerto Rico. I hope when we visit again we are able to book her again for another time! Thank you for making our anniversary special!

Yashira was so accommodating to all of our dietary preferences. The food was delicious and she shared so much of her knowledge of Puerto Rican cuisine. Discreet and clean up was beautiful! I recommend her without hesitation! Wonderful!

Myself and my family enjoy our Chef. She provided everything we needed and beyond. Chef Yashira was very professional. The food presentations and the taste of the food was awesome . Every meal was A+. I would recommend her to you all and TakeAChef as well!

What an amazing meal! Best welcome to Puerto Rico. I highly recommend. The presentation, taste, and portions were incredible. Chef and her assistant were super friendly and relatable. They felt like family.

Chef Yashira was absolutely incredible. She went *above and beyond* to ensure that I had an outstanding birthday dinner. Her passion for food, family and people was so evident in her personality and her dishes. The dinner that she cooked for us was hands down the best food we had during our stay in Puerto Rico. I can not put into words how highly we suggest her. 10/10 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Chef Yashira went above and beyond. Not only did she meet our expectations and made the food she had promised, but surprised us by making some of my 5-yo daughter's favorite side dishes (outside the menu). Her food was delicious and authentic— absolutely recommend her!!

Celebrated my wife’s birthday with a private dinner on the rooftop with close friends/family. Had an amazing experience, food was delicious, Chef Yashira was accommodating to our parties dietary needs and she was very professional and friendly. Would definitely recommend and would book her again.

The food was great and she was highly professional. Well worth it!

Chef Yashira created a meal that was so authentic to Puerto Rico and so delicious! We were thrilled with her presentation and willingness to explain the ingredients to us. She was kind and professional and responsive to my questions and requests. You will love her food!

Chef Yashira and her assistant were wonderful! We hired her for 2 dinner services during our vacation in Rio Grande, PR. We communicated in advance about the menu and she was very helpful in selecting a nice variety of Puerto Rican specialties….coconut shrimp, snapper, ceviche, flan, pork, a beautiful salad with papaya. It was so delicious! She’s very friendly, organized, and flexible. I would hire Chef Yashira again in a heartbeat!
