Chef Giordan was great! He was punctual, friendly, and of course made us a delicious brunch! We were happy to have him and would highly recommend him and Take A Chef for any occasion. 5/5 stars for sure

Our experience with Chef Giordan was exceptional! He was informative, friendly, courteous.. food was outstanding! Making plans to have him back for a dinner party! Loved the experience! Thank you Chef!!

Chef Giordan exceeded all of our expectations. He crafted a wonderful menu that met all of our requests. We had a butternut squash and miso soup that I haven’t been able to stop thinking about! He engaged while cooking with pleasant conversation. Clean up was amazing and he even packed up the leftovers. We would hire Chef Giordan again and again!

We had an absolutely amazing experience with Chef Giordan Toledo. We hired him for a bachelorette dinner, and he catered exactly to our theme and personalized the menu to just what we wanted. His communication was great, he was punctual, and the presentation of the food was great. The kitchen was left spotless, and everything that was left over he packed it up perfectly for us. I absolutely would recommend him and look forward to hopefully hiring him for future events.

Our chef exceeded every thought, hope, expectation we could think of. Food was incredibly fresh, cooked to perfection and everything from start to finish was beyond incredible. I very much plan to use Giordan many more times in the future. Highly recommend

I wanted to surprise my vegan, Food Network loving wife with a proper chef prepared meal in our home. Giordan is the first chef we’ve ever hired, and we were blown away. He arrived on time, and kept me posted of his progress, thus facilitating the surprise. He showed up with his cooler of culinary magic. After orienting himself to our kitchen, engaged with us in pleasant, entertaining conversation throughout the evening. As the courses came out, we were thoroughly impressed with how Giordan took some calculated risks, and nailed every dish. My wife is still talking about the evening that Giordan made so very special for us. Thank you.
