From food to service Chef Adair's team was exceptional. Communication was open and any questions I had were answered promptly and professionally! As a hair and makeup vendor myself I decided after 15 years in the industry I would be excited to plan and coordinate my own wedding (spoiler alert it was amazing, but get the day of coordination AT least.) Katherine at Chef Adair was very clear and knowledgeable about how the day would go and I was happy to let the professionals take control. I had booked Chef in January of 2024 (wedding was May 2025.) We had a beautiful trial where we were able to try 10 different meal options that were all plated beautifully. My fiancé at the time wanted a Sit Down dinner for our 70 guests and chef chatted with us about all the pros and cons of this option. Initially this was his main request but after some consideration he was persuaded to have a Stations (buffet) option. He was very nervous about the quality of food and us and our guests were blown away by the quality and quantity of food. Additionally we added bread to our service which they sliced a variety of bread for each of the tables. Our meals included a detailed and customized meal plan. The salad originally was a Strawberry & Gorgonzola but we had them change it out with Feta and they created a beautiful salad with those ingredients and more. The groom is sensitive to onions so they created a menu without onions while still tasting amazing. The Chicken was roasted in duck confit and not dry at all. The braised beef fell apart and paired perfectly with the Broccolini, couscous and mushroom polenta sides. The food felt as though it was curated perfectly to all work together but also separately. My guests have been raving the last 2 weeks about how it was one of the best meals they had ever had at a wedding! They were on time and to my surprise set up all of my tables which they did beautifully. They were fully staffed and were able to use my home kitchen even though it was up a small flight of stairs. Their staff poured my guests their waters, wine and cleared their plates. They also washed all dishes that didn't go back to my rental company, left my kitchen spotless and put all rental dishes back into their spaces! My last rave is all the leftovers were packed beautifully and waiting for us in the fridge to feed my guests the next evening and even some frozen lunches left. They went above and beyond our expectations. I originally met the Chef at a Bridal Expo and glad I took a chance on them. I am excited to rave about them to my future brides and already trying to plan another party to showcase a beautiful sit down dinner in the future. They made our party full, happy and the professional atmosphere made for the perfect experience for my guests. read more

We recently had the pleasure of experiencing the incredible services of Chef Adair's team, and we cannot express enough gratitude for the exceptional care and attention we received. Special thanks go to Katherine, who took such great care of us in every aspect. Her dedication and attention to detail truly made our event unforgettable.

Every dish was a testament to the chef's expertise, showcasing a perfect blend of flavors, textures, and presentation. Our guests were amazed by the quality and taste of the food, and we were all left in awe of the chef's ability to adapt and deliver an outstanding dining experience despite the obstacles.

My friends and I had a fabulous experience with Chef Garrett Adair & his assistant Katherine. They tailored a menu for all four of us with ease and professionalism. Loved all 5 exquisite courses with the highest praise going to the yellowfin tuna & Osetra caviar tower followed closely by the filet mignon with black truffle. Oh, & the quality of the oysters made a fan out of someone who doesn't normally eat them. They were so fresh! Furthermore, I would put money on Chef Adair's gnocchi to rival that of any Michelin starred restaurant or the Italian homelands. The wine pairings were perfect and enhanced each course in the most delicious way. Delightfully surprised with all his selections from locally sourced wineries. There's just nothing like all those flavors coming together to dance on my tongue. The birthday celebration was one for the records books. Looking forward to having him tempt our taste buds again! read more

All we can say is WOW! Chef was the chef for our 100 person wedding at Arista Winery last weekend and we cannot say enough good things about the experience. He was professional to work with throughout, and he was very conscious of our budget and made sure he stayed within it, which we really appreciated. We worked together to design the menu and he was open to listening to our requests for different food items than he had originally proposed. We went with all of his recommendations except we decided to switch to a burrata salad for the first course and it was absolutely divine. Chef's entire team (Chef, 10 servers, a sous-chef, 3 bartenders, an event coordinator, and a few more) were a pure joy to interact with. Everyone was so professional. We'd recommend chef a million times over. Thank you so much Chef! -Kasia&Ethan read more

We hired Chef Adair's team to cater an 80th birthday celebration dinner for 10. Half the diners were vegan or vegetarian, and the other half were omnivores. We rented a large house that was perfect, except for a range with an unreliable oven and no hood. On the appointed day, Chef Garrett Adair and his daughter arrived and overcame the shortcomings of the kitchen to prepare and serve two parallel 5 course meals that were delicious and satisfied the dietary requirements of the delighted diners. We also had Chef Adair's team provide the tableware and linens, which relieved our group of cleanup responsibilities on the day before our departure. Chef Adair hit the ball out of the park, and we couldn't be more pleased. -Stephen R. read more

We just finished a Bridal Party where Garrett Adair was the private chef and we had the most lovely dinner and wine pairing event while in Windsor California. He was very accommodating and checked in with us when there was any slight menu changes prior to the event. He attending to everything from the delicious 5 course dinner to all the dish and glass ware. Plus he left the kitchen absolutely spotless. He also gave us all the left overs and we made an absolutely delicious breakfast smorgasbord the next day with all the fresh ingredients. Not only was the dinner 5 star delicious, but the price was also cheaper than attending any of the fancy restaurants found in wine country. We highly recommend him. read more

I don't know where to begin Chef Adair catered a dinner for us four years ago while we were visiting in Napa. The food was absolutely amazing and the service impeccable. The experience was something you can't describe, he offered wine pairing for each course served and it was just mind blowing. We have gone back to visit Napa every year since with the exception of this year, each time we have gone back we had made it a point to have Chef Adair cater our last night in the area with a five course meal and wine to pair with each course. We can't wait to come back in 2018, he has become family to us and a trip to Napa without Chef Adair isn't worth the visit! read more

The Chef Adair team prepared a four course meal for a dozen of us at a private home. The Chef Nancy and Katherine had a seafood tower set out for us on our arrival home which was quickly devoured.
