We had a truly amazing experience with AfterToday Chefs! I planned a surprise 50th birthday party for my husband at our house for 10 people, and it was FANTASTIC! First of all, Chef Josh reached out to me almost immediately after I put out a request for a private chef. We set up a phone appointment and discussed menu options and pricing right away. It all sounded so good I had a hard time choosing! The chefs arrived right when they said they would, parked across the street to avoid spoiling the surprise, and started getting to work right away. They were friendly and accommodating, and the food was some of the best I’ve ever had! I didn’t have to do a thing. I got to just sit back and enjoy like I was a guest in my own home. The best part? They cleaned all the dishes and left my kitchen practically spotless. My husband and I are picky and we love good food, so when I tell you the food was outstanding you can trust me. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone!

I decided to surprise my husband with a personal chef for our anniversary. Chef Josh provided a beautiful menu to choose from ahead of time and we both were lost for words over how delicious everything came out! He replied almost immediately to every inquiry, arrived right on time, and thoroughly cleaned up before leaving. Being a bit shy and introverted myself, I was happy that he was content to cook quietly, or chit chat as I felt comfortable. We highly recommend using Chef Josh for any event (big or small)!

Josh and Lewis his sou chef both introduced themselves to all the guests. The food was amazingly delicious and presented beautifully. I would recommend Josh for any intimate event you would have.
