I hired Chef Anna for my birthday dinner celebrated in Topsail. And, while you never know whether or not to trust reviews...I'm so glad I did. All of our communication was via email and was done in a timely manner. She arrived at our rental when she said she would and promptly went to work. The aromas coming from the kitchen were but a preview of what would dance upon out tastebuds. We are still talking about the salad made from the simplest ingredients but packed a major punch. And, the grits were the smoothest ever. Chef Anna was as pleasant as her food. She conversed easily with us and welcomed questions. A great meal and no clean up-winning!! It was a wonderful evening. Thank you. read more

Anna was a great chef. She prepared everything in our kitchen with the freshest ingredients. The food was delectable; I had a ladies weekend and all 12 women were foodies, and they absolutely loved the tuna wontons, encrusted goat cheese salad, the salmon with creamy jalapeño sauce, and the ginger carrots. Anna was so sweet, kind, easy to work with and communicated well. Her husband was a great help and left my kitchen so clean-even the messes they didn't make. I will definitely use her again. read more

Chef Anna is the most fabulous chef on the planet! 5 stars simply aren't enough to quantify her amazing talents. Chef Anna and her team catered our wedding reception and open house. Her creativity and ability to execute delectable food is outstanding. There aren't enough adjectives to describe her gift. The food and presentation left everyone wanting more. Her desserts were out of this world. No brownie or cream puff can ever measure up to hers. Ever. All of our guests loved the entire experience and savored every bite. They are still talking about how fabulous it was. We are forever grateful. Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, Chef Anna! read more

I hesitate in telling you how awesome Chef Anna is to have as your private chef mainly because you might believe me and hire her, which will make it more difficult for ME to schedule another event with her!! :-). Chef Anna has worked with us for two different private dinners at our home. Both were SPECTACULAR! In addition to being a superb chef, she is super friendly, engaging, creative and a sincerely good person. She listens to what you're looking to do with your event and then creates it for you including creative personal details to make you're event that much more special. Chef Anna is the very best!! read more

Chef Anna exceeded my expectations! Starting with great communication throughout the process and making a great impression by being early for our dinner for 30! The food was excellent, but what was most enjoyable was how she interacted with the group and especially the children. The kids loved watching her and her awesome assistant Bella prepare our meal! One of the kids said they felt like they were watching the show "Chopped." From set-up to clean-up, they had fun while we enjoyed the fruits of their labor and their company. Wouldn't hesitate to engage her services again!! Thanks, Anna!! read more

10/10 experience. Highly recommend. Chef Anna delivered an extraordinary dinner for our crew of 20 adults and kids in Topsail celebrating a 25th wedding anniversary. Organized, on-time, kind, efficient, clean, and, most importantly, high quality and fresh ingredients cooked to perfection (we had burrata and beet salad, cioppino, chicken piccata, heirloom vegetables, and Italian cake). Our group was delighted and left talking for days about her unforgettable dessert. Thank you to Chef Anna:) read more

Chef Anna provided the food, drink and dessert for my sons first birthday. All of the party guests were raving about the food. Communication with Anna was easy, even with organizing the party from across the country. Thank you Anna! read more

We have had Anna and her team cater two separate events for us at the house. One was a large holiday party. She was easy to work with, price was fair for the high quality, service prompt, presentation excellent and the food was delicious. She tailored it to what we liked, everything was fresh and high-quality, and guests raved. She also catered a smaller party during the pandemic and was nice enough to portion everything in plastic containers for us to avoid communal table/platters. Super convenient. Highly recommend! read more

Wonderful experience catering for a family celebration of my parents 50th wedding anniversary! Extremely professional, delicious food!

Got Ghosted after we spoke on the phone a couple of times. Kinda sucks because she seemed to know what we wanted.

Chef Anna was a true professional from the start and was so accommodating considering our last-minute plans. She fed 8 grown men a delicious surf & turf dinner, and they loved (and devoured) it! She is super nice, and it was a pleasure! read more

Chef Anna Masteller - Surf & Turf Dinner at the beach - Caterers Near Me

Chef Anna is wonderful! I contacted her just 3 weeks before our annual family Thanksgiving reunion and she was able to work with me to provide a delicious dinner for 32. Prepped, wrapped, and delivered all the way from Wilmington to Sunset Beach. We loved all of her food, but the Rosemary Bread Stuffing was the biggest hit! She was so pleasant to work with and everything was exactly as we had discussed on the phone. We look forward to working with her again. Thank you Chef Anna! read more

Thanks Anna! read more

We hired Chef Anna to prepare 4 evening meals for the week of a family reunion on North Topsail. We ordered 5 course gourmet Mexican Fiesta and dinner A la Ina (Beef Bourgignon), and 3 course Italian Feast plus one night of pies: chicken pot pie, quiche, and hash brown casserole. Everything was DELICIOUS! Fabulous. It was delivered to our house in the late afternoon and we heated it up the hour before dinner. We had very few leftovers to put away and no dishes to clean!!! Such a brilliant way to feed 10 adults so well. We'll definitely use Chef Anna again the next time we have energy for another reunion! read more

My fiance and I were supposed to be getting married yesterday but due to the health crisis we had to postpone our special day. We rented a home in Oak Island NC to get out of New York for this week. We searched and searched for a private 5 star dining experience and came across Chef Anna. She came to the house and delivered the most amazing 5 course 5 star dining experience we could have ever experienced. We are so greatful for her, and highly recommend her. She will EXCEED your expectations. Thank You so much Chef Anna!! When we come back to NC you will be receiving a call from us :) read more

Anna made our elopement reception such a wonderful event. She took the time to listen to us discuss the foods we love, the intolerances we have and crafted a menu to remember.

Chef Anna has tickled my tastebuds for the last few years. I can not rave enough about her incredible creations. The first thing she ever made for me haunts my dreams. It was a raw taco. "Refried beans" made from sunflower seeds on a romaine leaf topped with fresh mango salsa and sour cream made from cashews. If that doesn't get your motor going, maybe you should check yourself. Cheers to Anna and her wonderful soul!!! read more

I contacted Chef Anna about having a private chef for a small engagement celebration for some of our closest friends. Her colleague Chef Allison came and we could not have been more impressed. The food was absolutely amazing, they were very reasonably priced, she was so nice and professional, and she left our kitchen even cleaner than she found it. We couldn't recommend this company enough and we can't wait to come up with another reason to have them back. read more

Chef Anna came to Topsail beach for a 50th birthday celebration !! This was a girls trip to celebrate 2 very special friends. Every time I emailed Anna she was prompt at returning my messages. She showed up on time and very prepared. The food was amazing and the presentation beautiful! I can't say enough wonderful things about this experience!! We will be visiting again next year and will be requesting her again!! read more

We had Anna and Rob for our 50th(really 51st because of COVID) from college. They were fantastic. From the time we signed the contract till the very end with dessert of limoncello cake with marscapone blueberry raspberry frosting. Prosciutto wrapped shrimp appetizer, salmon mussel and scallop pasta and an unbelievable green salad. There were 17 of us and it was fabulous. We would hire them again in a minute. read more

Fantastic experience for the family! Great food, great service! Will definitely be using Anna agai.

My husband, my best friend and her boyfriend and I had the EXTREME pleasure of having Chef Anna Masteller create an unforgettable Valentines Day dinner for us. We were staying at the lovely Dreamers Welcome, and were able to request her services. I have been vegan for almost 11 years, and have eaten in restaurants all over the world, both before and after I started eating this way. I can honestly say that ANYONE would love Chef Anna's Magic (I keep avoiding the word "cooking" because it seems like it would minimize the fabulous things she does). I requested French food as she is a classically trained French chef, AND because I hadn't had real French food since going vegan.. no one really does it! Chef Anna blew us away. My one specific request was creme brûlée because I missed it so much. When she brought it out and I cracked the perfect crust, I almost cried. When I tasted it, I think a tear actually slipped out. All of the food was too good for words. I am already trying to figure out my next trip to see Chef Anna! read more

Chef Anna provided the most delicious and beautiful arrangement of food for our wedding dinner! I have some dietary restrictions... and we love to eat healthy, high end cuisine. Chef Anna made wonderful suggestions for us. She prepped much of it on-site so it was super fresh and was flexible on our moving of our "start time". Our overall experience was amazing. She is top notch and professional! Thanks!! read more

Chef Anna has graced Southern Pines with her talent for fine cooking and healthy food. And we are so lucky to have her here! Everything she makes is fantastic!

She is a fine addition to our small community in North Carolina. read more

Chef Anna is amazing! She was able to cater our wedding on short notice as well as cook for our brunch the next morning. She is nice, easy to work with and her foood is delicious! She put together a wonderful and thoughtful menu that suited us perfectly and she was open to changes/suggestions. Her langostino ravioli was the best seafood ravioli I have ever had! She provided vegan meals for some of our guests and they were amazed by their meals as well. The bartender & staff that came with her were helpful, nice, and easy to work with as well. She was a big part of providing us with a beautiful and stress-free wedding! read more

Had a very special occasion to celebrate and wanted to mark the evening with something other than the standard, "go out to dinner." Chef Anna came to the house and prepared what was perhaps one of the best meals we've had, quite literally, all within the confines of our dietary restrictions. We were quite simply blown away and can't wait until the next time! read more

Best food I have ever eaten. Took a chance. Did not know Anna. She served 21 people at our family reunion for 4 nights. This food was like----made in heaven. So healthy. So tasty. I'm gonna book her for next year. Please Anna. Come again! read more

Anna definitely worked some magic for our event, a 5-day long silent retreat at a local retreat center--the third such event that Anna has catered for us. The food was fabulous--wholesome, hearty, delicious and well presented to boot! It was a pleasure working with Anna on fine tuning the menus beforehand and in making minor adjustments as the retreat was in progress. Anna and her staff did a great job being ON for three wonderful meals a day for 5 days running, and they did it with kindness and grace! read more
