Not only did I get what I wanted everyone else enjoyed their food, positivity and amazing staff selection. I can not wait to hire them again it was truly lovely thank you Chefs you made my day exceptional

Merci beaucoup !!! C'était excellent et inespéré, la présentation des plats, le goût, le choix des produits et du menu et aussi l'adaptation à nos contraintes alimentaires, juste pour ça : MERCI !!!! Je recommande vivement Mattia, chef à l'écoute, discret, chaleureux et compréhensif Merci encore, je n'hésiterais pas à refaire appel à lui ! Mention spéciale pour le fromage de ricotta en entrée et le tiramisu en dessert, vraiment rien à dire !!!

We had an incredible evening with Mattia & Flavia! The food was outstanding and they were fun & engaging while still being professional. I would book them again in a heartbeat and highly recommend their services! Thank you!

We had the pleasure of experiencing a delightful dinner prepared by Mattia and his lovely assistant Flavia, through Take a Chef. The evening was nothing short of spectacular, as they expertly catered to a party of 8. The food was not only delicious but also beautifully presented, making for a truly memorable dining experience. Mattia's entertaining skills and warm hospitality added an extra layer of charm to the evening. It was an absolutely lovely culinary adventure, and I would highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a unique and personalized dining experience. Grazie mille :-)

Thank to Mattia and Flavia for this night We love all the dishes Everything was so good It was a great night !!

For our first visit to Italy, so I wanted to have a memorable first dinner, and Chef Mattia Maria Rossi was just perfect! To begin with, everything leading up to the evening was handled very professionally. Mattia was responsive to all of our questions/suggestions regarding the menu, and concerns about the lack of kitchen supplies in our guest apartment. Then, the traditional Roman dinner was wonderfully prepared and presented by Mattia. And in addition to being an exceptional chef, Mattia is a really nice person, who gladly shares his love of family, food, and travel. After visiting Rome, Florence, Montorosso, and Venice, this meal is still my favorite of the entire trip!

We are so happy with our chef Mattia Maria Rossi and his colleague! They really made the dinner a amazing experience with great presentations and incredible food! 10/10 !

We had a great experience with Chef Mattia. We scheduled dinner for three evenings and the entire experience exceeded all of our expectations! The main reason we wanted a personal chef was to make sure the food was safe for our 13-year-old son who has food allergies. Chef Mattia was incredible with understanding our needs and making sure all ingredients, without question, were safe for our son. We corresponded with Chef Mattia ahead of our trip via What’s app on numerous occasions to discuss the menu and various details. In addition to our text communication, we scheduled a 30-minute call to go over specific menu items, preferences, questions, etc. All of our communication went very well – timely, efficient, and we always felt like Chef Mattia understood all of our needs and preferences. Chef Mattia put together an amazing menu for the three meals! We selected three courses for each meal, with lots of classic and authentic Roman selections for appetizers, pastas, and main courses. The meals were incredible! Chef Mattia also spent time during his preparation informing us about the history, cooking techniques, and other interesting details about the various items he prepared. He was very engaging with our kids as well. Initially when we set out to hire a private chef, it was mainly for my son’s food allergies. By the end of the trip, this experience turned out to be the highlight of our entire trip. In addition to eating great food, we had the incredible opportunity to interact very closely and over several days with someone from the local culture in a way that was far different than simply going to a restaurant. After a whole day of site seeing and walking all over Rome, to be able to sit in the comfort of our apartment, open a bottle of wine and be served one incredible dish after another, was such a wonderful experience. For our kids (13 and 11), it was a great experience for them as well. They had a chance to try new dishes that they probably would have never eaten. Both my wife and I felt that their experience of eating brand new dishes in a foreign country and really enjoying everything will give them a newfound confidence as they continue to explore new foods going forward. I would recommend Chef Mattia to anyone visiting Rome, whether it’s a first trip or you’ve been there several times!

Chef Mattia and his wife, Flavia, magically executed our private chef dinner. We were a family of 10 with several food allergies and food aversions. Chef Mattia worked with us extensively beforehand to generate a menu that would accommodate all our dietary needs. At the start of the dinner when my son and daughter-in-law had to taxi to the Rome airport to retrieve luggage, Chef Mattia and Flavia continued cooking, served the remaining 8 of us, and held and served the remaining 2 dinners to my son and daughter-in-law upon their return. We couldn't have asked for more. But then we did! During the dinner we received word of a dramatic change in our upcoming trip outside of Rome. Flavia's mother was very familiar with the area we were going to and Flavia immediately contacted her for alternative suggestions. Mattia and Flavia stayed in touch with us to ensure we had a successful day trip. Bravo! You will have a wonderful meal and experience if you book with Chef Mattia!! Just do it!!!

From beginning to end, the service offered by Mattia was impeccable. We extensively discussed the menu before hand, he offered many choices for both kids and adults and finally landed on something to please everyone. He arrived right on time. He was knowledgeable about the food he's cooking, explained everything to the adults, entertained the kids, set up the table as good as it would be in a restaurants and turned out great dishes. We loved everything but thought his supli was quite special. At the end, he cleaned up thoroughly and even took out the trash. After he left, the kitchen looked like he never came. The whole experience was one of the highlights of our trip to Rome and would highly recommend it to everyone visiting Rome.

Chef Mattia and his wife were terrific! They were both very friendly and engaging and the food was awesome! Our main request when we booked the event was to have an evening in Rome that our family will always remember. Chef Mattia delivered on that promise! We exchanged several emails prior to the evening sorting out a menu. We had a couple of people in our party with allergy restrictions and Chef Mattia worked around all of that and developed a perfect menu. We were also a little concerned when we booked since we were in a rental apartment. They brought everything that they needed and left the kitchen cleaner than when they arrived. I would absolutely recommend Chef Mattia to anyone and if we have an opportunity to book an event like this again with Chef Mattia - we will. Thank you again Chef Mattia and your lovely wife!

Chef Mattia made us the best dinner we've ever had! we enjoyed every bit of it! I highly recommend him. thank you again Chef Mattia for this tasteful menu! you're a star ✨✨

Fabulous service, lovely presentation and delicious food. Mattia did a wonderful job. My small kitchen set up was not ideal and he made it work effortlessly. My favorites were the starters, the dessert and the pasta... soooo delicious! I highly recommend his service and his take on Roman cuisine. I will definitely book again!

We had the best meal with Chef Mattia. The food was delicious and he was so nice. I highly recommend!

Chef Mattia and his assistant Chef Flavia, planned and prepared a private meal for our wedding night and it was absolutely amazing! They worked with us every step of the way to ensure each course (and wine pairing!) was exactly to our liking; they also worked with us to accommodate one of our guests who unlike the rest of our party, required a special vegan meal. The food was precisely what we expected - fresh, interesting, carefully curated. We had a last minute request to add a Mille-Feuille to our menu which they executed perfectly. The two chefs were very professional, while also making time to talk with our group and ensure everyone was completely satisfied. Five star experience - highly recommend Chef Mattia!

This was an excellent experience. We were travelling as a family and having italian cooked meals prepared saved a lot of time and effort during our trip. It was great for the whole family to have the meals prepared with wounderful varied dishes and desserts with clean up afterward in our own apartment. Fantastic experience and a wonderful chef!

Estremamente professionale. Lo chef Mattia ha presentato un menu armonioso nei sapori con una presentazione molto curata. L’esecuzione dei piatti è stata molto fluida e con una tempistica eccezionale.

Mattia è stato estremamente gentile garbato e professionale. Ha voluto che ci godessimo la serata senza preoccupazioni, ci ha accontentato nelle nostre richieste di un menu particolare e ha lasciato la cucina uno splendore. È un professionista gentile e disponibile, e ha reso questa serata ancora più speciale.

Serata molto piacevole sotto tutti i punti di vista. Inoltre lo chef ci ha fatto sentire completamente a nostro agio.
