Laura and Ana cooked dinner for a small group of 4 at our air bnb in Cabo. The food was AMAZING and overall was such a great experience!! My boyfriend caught mahi while fishing on our trip and Laura and Ana were able to prepare and cook it for us. If your thinking about booking a private chef experience I would highly recommend Laura and Ana. Best meal ever !!

Wow!!! I can’t think of enough words to describe truly how special this experience was. Chef Laura and Eduardo were simply amazing as they loving prepared an exquisite meal for our family at our AirBNB rental during our Los Cabos vacation. The communication between us was perfect leading up to the date and the meal was out of this world. Do yourself a favor and book Chef Laura to make a meal for you. Going out and experiencing the great array of dining options in Cabo is great but having one night at your place to kick back and let someone prepare a fabulous 4 course meal for you and then clean up afterwards was one of the highlights of our trip. I would do this again without any hesitation. You should do it too!

One word ..AMAZI NG! What a great experience! Loved it all ..the food was outstanding and they were super friendly and accommodating.

True professionals. Their food was incredible. I hope to enjoy their exercise in the future!

This is a must do experience! Laura and Ana were amazing! From accommodating meal preferences, time, and location to absolutely incredible food and presentation. Thank you Laura and Ana! I highly recommend to anyone desiring a unique and unforgettable experience in Cabo!

A must experience! Food was amazing and their service was a luxury. As the primary cook for our family, it was a treat to be able to sit back and enjoy the whole family without doing anything for a night.

What a phenomenal experience. Laura's menu was fabulous and truly did not disappoint. 4+ courses. We overate because the food was so great. We couldn't help ourselves. Highly recommended recommended.

We arrived at the Cabo airport about noon and scheduled Chefs Laura and Anahi at our Airbnb for 6 pm. We could not have asked for a better first night experience and excellent meal. It was a great way to unpack, relax and kickoff an excellent vacation. We loved the experience!

they were great food was delicious

The food was excellent and an overall great experience

Anahi was wonderful! She came rite on time and the food was delicious. Service was also quick!

110% recommend using Ana & Laura for your personal chef experience. I cannot say enough about them and the food they prepared! Our dinner was absolutely delicious...so flavorful and fresh. They were so kind, pleasant and friendly. Very nice conversation. Their preparation & presentation of the food was exquisite. Do yourself a favor and BOOK THEM for a memorable meal. We will most definitely book them again on our next trip to Cabo!

Was such a lovely experience overall! The chef was right on time, cooked everything perfectly to our specifications, and left the house perfectly clean after she was done. Overall would book again

The food was amazing! Would definitely use the service again.

I absolutely loved this experience. Anna came alone because there were just two of us. She made a delicious tuna tartare appetizer that she taught us how to make, a beet carpaccio salad, and a main course with steak and grilled vegetables and a scrumptious corn soufflé. Dessert was lavender infused crème brûlée. She cleaned everything up and left us the leftovers.

Really enjoyed our dinner and the experience was great. Learned some cooking techniques as well! Definitely recommend.

Incredible service and even more incredible food! The shrimp appetizer and the churros were especially unforgettable.

What a delightful and delicious dining experience! Both Laura and Ana were professional, fun and charming. Put this experience on your bucket list, you won’t regret it. Their menus are a fusion of Mexican and Argentine flavors.

Amazing experience! Laura and Ana were such wonderful chefs that blew our expectations out of the water. So pleasant to chat with and learn about their passion for food and enjoy an exquisite meal. Super professional. Highly recommend.
