Amazing dish! We had a last minute meal we needed with a very specific menu request and he NAILED it! Made the timing work and the dish was beyond incredible!

Chef Rosanna was wonderful. She arrived on time and was very engaging. We chatted with her about her chef journey that led her to ultimately be here in the Las Vegas Valley. She also shared lots of information about what she was making, the ingredients, and offered suggestions about how to make the food the best it could be. The presentation was outstanding, and taste was even better. She has our highest recommendation.

Kazuki ushiro was extremely professional and made an amazing meal. He also was able to accommodate for or requests and came to our extremely remote house. Overall it was an amazing experience and we will definitely work with him again.

Chef Laurence was excellent! He cooked a fantastic four-course meal for me and 3 very strong personalitied ladies. He designed a special menu for us that accommodated all our dietary preferences. His service was prompt, friendly, and professional. And the food was delicious. We would recommend him highly!

Ben was awesome! I highly recommend the Bama board. Everything we ate was top notch! What an amazing chef and experience

Unforgettable experience with Frederico. Every single dish was excellent. Frederico even made a beautiful cheese board with cheese that we had available. Would definately recommend, and we are happy to do this service again with Frederico when the time is right!

We were beyond thrilled with our experience with Chef Carlos Chubb. From start to finish, everything was seamless, professional, and truly special. Hosting a 50th birthday celebration at home could not have been a better decision. The food was exceptional—beautifully presented, thoughtfully curated, and absolutely delicious. Every course felt restaurant-quality, yet perfectly suited to a warm, intimate home setting. Our family still talking about how incredible the experience was. What truly set the evening apart was how effortless it felt for us as hosts. Chef Carlos handled everything with such grace, care, and attention to detail, allowing us to relax and fully enjoy the celebration. The experience felt elevated, personal, and perfectly executed. If you’re looking for an unforgettable at-home dining experience for a special occasion, I cannot recommend Chef Carlos Chubb highly enough. He helped make a milestone birthday truly memorable.

Ivan was amazing , he prepared everything so meticulously and he took the whole cooking very seriously , delighting us with different and tasty falvors . He cooked sea food, fish , soups , meat , desserts , all were delicious and we had everyday like 5-6 courses , making our Christmas a really special one Thank you for all

Chef Luis was absolutely amazing!! His food was absolutely amazing! We had our kids us on a Christmas trip, he was at our condo everyday cooking one meal a day for 6 days. Every meal was so good, and Chef Luis is such a sweet and very talented chef. I would recommend him to anyone. We will be in Tulum again soon and will hopefully be able to have chef Luis cook for us again. We feel very blessed to have been paired up with him and his food.

Chef Shannon did an incredible job and dinner was a big hit with my siblings and their spouses. Her advice on the menu as we planned and the recommended wines provided a fabulous experience. We all enjoyed the presentation and the flavors of her dishes. We highly recommend using her for your event.

Our meal was fantastic! Chef was very personable and we loved getting her local restaurant recommendations during our service. The steak was cooked to perfection as was the ravioli and I would definitely have her return for another event!
