I recently hired Chef Steve to prepare a private dinner for my husband's birthday. From start to finish, the experience was seamless and absolutely incredible. The menu Chef Steve created was tailored perfectly to our preferences, and every dish was both beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. Chef Steve took care of everything, from set-up to clean-up, allowing us to simply relax and enjoy the evening. It was truly a stress-free and unforgettable experience. My husband was blown away by the entire evening, and we’ll definitely be hiring Chef Steve again for future special occasions. If you're considering a personal chef for your next event, don't hesitate Chef Steve will exceed your expectations! Wasn't able to get pictures of all the dishes as we enjoyed them quickly! Menu was: Sushi Grade Salmon lime cured with avocado and pickled red onions on crispy rice Wagyu Sliders with caramelized onion, truffle cheese and lemon aioli Seared Tuna bites Seared branzino & chicken with lemon butter sauce, lemon broccoli & Parmesan Rissoto Lemon Raspberry pound cake with lemon curd

Chef Steve was incredible! I hired him for my wives birthday party for her and 5 friends. He was extremely responsive throughout the process, and super easy to work with. He showed up on time, and the food was served exactly on schedule! He’s also very clearly a kind person who is deeply passionate about cooking! He sent me a proposed menu a month before the event and it was perfect. He was also able to accommodate two gluten free guest. The food received amazing reviews- every course was unique and delicious. He did a great job presenting the food, but did not interrupt conversation or interject. A true professional! I would highly recommend Chef Steve to anyone reading this!

Terrific experience! Chef Steve wa so easy to work with and made our anniversary dinner so wonderful! We had some scheduling challenges on our end (Steve was on time and stayed in touch!) - so Chef rolled with the punches and made dinner for us to enjoy when I (finally!) made it home. We loved everything - a few photos here, not of everything. I’m sure Chef’s plating would be 10x better (at least), but I’m so grateful for this wonderful experience. I definitely recommend!

We hired Chef Steve for an evening on our girls trip. Not only was the food spectacular, the overall experience was incredible. He was very accommodating when curating the menu for the evening. Each dish was thoughtfully put together, plated, served & explained to us. Our expectations were exceeded!

I hired Chef Steve to prepare a four-course meal to surprise my husband for his birthday, and everything was absolutely amazing! Not only did he craft a delicious menu, but he also went out of his way to cater to my gluten allergy, which I really appreciated. My husband raved about how tender and juicy his steak was, and my fish was cooked to perfection. Everything was absolutely delicious! We had such a wonderful experience, and I’m already thinking about hiring him for my mom’s upcoming birthday party. Highly recommend!
