I had Chef Craig from Chef Rich’s company. He was so accommodating and nice and made my parents anniversary super special.

We were very impressed with Chef Craig and his assistant. They were punctual and provided a fantastic meal. They cleaned everything and left a spotless kitchen which was amazing! Overall would highly recommend to anyone.

Awesome experience!

Chef Richard was phenomenal from the moment he walked in. He was friendly and engaging - he spoiled the whole family with his amazing food (including our dog, with our permission!). Chef prepared thanksgiving for us and it was easily the best thanksgiving meal any of us had ever had. Chef plated, served and cleaned up everything before he left. We would absolutely recommend Chef Richard - and hope to use him again in the future. Thank you, Chef!

We had a wonderful time ! The food was amazing and the chef was great !

Craig was wonderful!

Chef Craig was absolutely incredible. Super engaging and very funny. We loved talking to him about life and music and having him as our Chef for our first year wedding anniversary! As soon as he left my husband said “we need him every year!” And I couldn’t agree more! The food was sensational! Thank you so much!

Amazing meal!

This was an incredible experience with amazing food!

I hired Chef Mancini for my future daughter in law bachelorette party held at a VBO. Everyone love the experience and claimed it was the best dinner they had ever had. He chose an excellent menu and provided outstanding service. I would definitely recommend Chef Mancini and use him in the future.

Chef Craig was sent from the team and he was wonderful to work with. Skilled, kind, and lovely, I would ask him back any day. The food was top notch, the preparation perfection, and it really made my parents anniversary super special. If you are considering working with Chef Richard, be aware that there's a team of chefs he works with. We didn't know that he would be sending someone else, so that would be one piece of feedback that's important to know when booking.

Chef was stupendous! Loved every dish and every moment. Highly recommend.

This was an extremely unique, fun, and delicious experience. Would highly recommend it and hope to do it again in the future

Chef Rich was engaging and very talented. He obviously loves what he does and is incredibly experienced. We had a great night and would definitely hire him again.
