Chef was amazing. The entire experience was top notch. I highly recommend Chef Tharren.

Chef Tharren and his su chef were absolutely incredible. His food was delicious, he was amazing and everyone enjoyed it so much! We would love to hire him again. Everyone is still raving about him and his food this morning.

Chef T made my mom’s 65th birthday a night to remember. The food was incredible from start to finish. Everything was delicious and Chef T was so wonderful and explained each dish thoroughly. Thank you so much to Chef T! 100/10 experience!

Book Chef T now! Just a world class experience start to finish!

Chef Tharren and his associate were fantastic. The food was delicious and exceeded our party of 10’s expectations. Everyone enjoyed every dish. It was for my brother’s 40th birthday and he absolutely loved it. We all would highly recommend the stuffed mushrooms, seafood stew, filet mignon, and crab cakes. The clean up was spectacular and it was definitely nice having everything taken care of. When I come back to Hilton Head, I would hire Chef Tharren again.

Chef Printup exceeded our expectations for our girls beach vacation! It was an incredibly unique and special experience! He was informative and personable, while also giving us our space to enjoy the food and each other’s company! The food was delicious, paced nicely, and he did an excellent job with cleanup! We would definitely hire him again for another experience!

Chef Tharren worked with me advance to mix and match dishes to design our evening. He was on time, even a bit early, and served eat delicious and beautiful dish with an explanation of what it was. At the end he sat with us for a bit and shared his story with becoming a chef, influences, and some fun facts we asked about. He is super personable, and when he left, every spec of dirt and dish in the kitchen was clean and put away. We loved our chef experience!

Chef Tharren and his sous chef were fantastic. They jumped right into gear when they arrived and confidently led the way through the evening so that no one had to worry about a thing. They were incredibly flexible and professional. It really did feel like going to a restaurant in our own home. The food was delicious. Our only complaint was that we didn't have enough room in our stomachs to eat every last bite! (But they boxed up all the leftovers!). Next time we might go for the 3 course rather than 5 course meal. The food was gorgeous and delicious. They knew just when to introduce a new course. They kept our glasses full. Chef Tharren told us a bit about each dish, and we enjoyed every interaction we had with him. We were totally amazed to find that all of the dishes were cleaned and put away after the meal. Unbelievable! Thank you!!

Incredible experience! Chef and his team made my daughters 21rst birthday a true experience to remember.

Chef Tharren was fantastic!! We had him on back to back nights. He made incredible dishes, was very professional, described every dish and the kitchen was spotless each night when he left. Would have him again in a heartbeat. 5 stars!

Chef T and and the whole experience was amazing! I would highly recommend him and wouldn’t hesitate to use his services again. The food was delicious, he was professional and just the right amount of interaction with the group that made the meal feel personalized and special but not intrusive to the celebration. First time having a private chef for a special occasion and couldn’t have asked for a better experience!

Chef Therran was absolute best! His food was amazing... everything from the lobster deviled eggs, to the salad, to the steak and grouper and finishing with a tiramisu! Still dreaming of it all! And he was so friendly and such a joy to be around! Highly recommend using him!

Chef Tharren delivered a culinary experience that was as creative as it was delicious. The execution of each dish was flawless with each course being even more extravagant than the last. His vibrant and professional personality was such a pleasure to have in the kitchen. He was excellent in communicating with me in advance and came prepared with everything down to the place settings. I highly recommend him to anyone in the area! You will have an incredible meal that you will never forget!

Chef Tharren was amazing. He arrived on time and ready to go to work. The food he prepared was amazing and each dish had a story behind it which was amazing. I recommend Chef Tharren to anyone who wants a great dinner prepared for you. I will be using his services in the future.

Chef T was absolutely fantastic! From my first conversation with him to our goodbyes after our dinner, he was fantastic! All six of us enjoyed every moment of our delicious dinner. And at the end, everything was impeccably neat and tidy. I highly recommend Chef T.

Outstanding experience. Would invite back again and again!!

Chef T was amazing. Very gracious and humble. He made our first experience unforgettable. The food was amazing! The lamp chops were my favorite.

Great service and great food, wouldn't change anything about the experience

Could not recommend it highly enough. Was professional and on point throughout the entire process. Highly communicative and flexible with the menu. A delight to have in our home and the food was DELICIOUS. We will hire again.

Chef Tharren (T) is absolutely amazing!!!!! He provided an incredible dining experience for a VP and her direct reports for the holidays. The comments from myself and the attendees were "this was the best I've ever had", "we need his contact information for our personal events". One person commented that other crabcakes and stuffed mushrooms will live up to what Chef T prepared. I could not have asked for anything better. He was communicative, professional, and a delight to interact with while he cooked for us.
