Excelente servicio los recomiendo 100% amables todo muy rico

What an incredible experience. I’m so pleased with our choice of chef. He was accommodating, we had 11 adults and all of the food was delicious to our party as far as selection. The team was punctual and they cleaned up perfectly. I would come back and hire the same chef and recommend this service to anyone traveling.

It was really fantastic experience with Chef Jace. Everything was so fresh and very tasty. He came very well prepared and didn’t even need one thing from my kitchen . From start to finish he was very professional and cleaned up so good after too … highly recommend him ….

Nous avons passé un super moment grâce au chef Sébastien ! Rien à penser pour un repas de qualité et bien réalisé. Je recommande vivement ce chef qui a été aux petits soins pour notre groupe. Merci beaucoup pour cette soirée

Bravo au chef François. Nous avons passé une excellente soirée et surtout profité d'un diner dont chaque plat a été apprécié par tous nos convives. François a été très réactif en amont du diner puis ponctuel, sympathique et attentionné en termes de service, de timing, de présentation des plats. Nous referons appel à lui à la prochaine occasion.

I hired Juan to prepare the meal for my wife's 45th birthday and he did an amazing job. We hosted 12 people and it made for a very memorable night allowing him to handle everything from appetizers to desert. I would do it again.

Chef Aura Maria was incredibly polite, always wearing a warm smile. Her attention to detail and accommodating nature were truly impressive. Her professionalism and thorough preparation made planning and executing my husband's birthday surprise effortless and seamless.

Chef Ronda Salvert was phenomenal and made a very special night of mine incredible. The quality of her cooking paired with her engagement and attentiveness shows she truly is passionate of her work. If you are in Puerto Rico, I couldn’t recommend her enough. She was fantastic

Everything was great!

Thanks you Chef Trinity for such a great experience!

Ale was an incredible chef. From the first interaction to the very end, everything was phenomenal. She customized the menu to meet both my partner's requests and mine. The food and presentation was absolutely incredible. I would definitely recommend her. Overall 10/10!!

Chef Yana was absolutely amazing, friendly, punctual and just wonderful.

We hit the jackpot with Chef Will. From the moment he arrived, he brought ease, and serious culinary magic to our vacation. We hired him for three meals a day over five days for our group of eight, and let’s just say… every single meal was an experience. Will didn’t just cook for us—he transformed our trip. He gracefully handled every dietary request (from meat-lovers to vegetarians to dairy-free), accommodated picky eaters with a smile, and still managed to WOW every single person at every single meal. The food? Out-of-this-world. We were literally silent most nights at the dinner table—too focused on the flavors to talk! Beyond his culinary skills, Chef Will was an absolute delight to be around. Always polite, always smiling, always going the extra mile. He saved the day more than once, making our vacation smoother and more memorable than we could’ve hoped for. By the end of our trip, Chef Will wasn’t just our chef—he became a true friend. We’re already hoping he visits us in Detroit someday (and yes, we’ll be ready with open arms and empty plates)! Chef Will, you’re the MVP of our Puerto Rico getaway. Thank you for your kindness, your professionalism, and most of all—your incredible food. You made this trip unforgettable. If you’re even thinking about hiring a private chef in Puerto Rico… stop thinking and book Chef Will. You won’t regret it.

My Chef Edgar was amazing. I'm a professional bodybuilder in training so I had some serious diet restrictions and my daughters were able to eat anything. I realize it was a LOT of work getting my ZERO fat meals done properly and at the same time making extravagant meals for my girls. Chef Edgar pulled it all off effortlessly. He was so accommodating with all our needs. I felt bad for having so many requests but he took it all in stride and nailed it perfectly. I highly recommend this Chef and I can't wait to use him again!

Thanks Arnault. We had a great dinner and enjoyed the meal.

Great experience!!

Chef did a wonderful job. Everything he cooked was incredible. He was also kind & left the kitchen clean. I would definitely recommend him.

Everyone enjoy the food very much

Chef Nico made my Father's 80th Birthday special. Food was exceptional. Portions more than generous Wine pairing excellent

Chef Francesco and Marie-Blanche were a delight to have in our home to help make our evening special and appropriate for a milestone celebration. They were kind, helpful, affable, and polite. The food was delicious and locally rooted. We highly recommend his services!
