If I could give 10 stars, I would! I searched for several weeks to find a chef to prepare a meal…read morefor my 30th birthday dinner party, and I am so glad that I found Chef Joe. Every other chef I spoke with would only do a 5-7 course menu, which is not what I was looking for. Chef Joe was happy to do 3 courses for us, and all of them were amazing. Coordination of the evening (menu, services, price, location, etc.) was seamless from start to finish, and he was very responsive and flexible any time I had a question or needed to make a change along the way. He left the kitchen of our Airbnb better than he found it, boxed up each person's leftovers if they had any and labeled the boxes for us by name, and even washed our plates and flatware when we were finished with dinner so that we would have them for the cake we planned to eat later in the evening. Not only was the food absolutely delicious, Chef Joe was also very personable and kind to our whole group. Reasonable prices, above and beyond service, and amazing food...I cannot recommend Couch Potatoes enough. Thank you, Chef Joe, for a wonderful meal and for making my 30th birthday better than I could have imagined!

There are no shortage of great things to say about Chef Josh. We've used him twice now for…read moredifferent celebrations and he has knocked it out of the park each time. In fact, after his latest visit we all agreed we needed to start bringing him in quarterly. Chef's cooking style is best described as transformative. He takes ingredients you'd never dream of being the star of the dish and makes it the most delicious thing you've ever tasted. Our last dinner we reqested to be completely vegetarian and he did not disappoint. Even the non-vegetarian at the dinner was blown away and left being the perfect amount of full. My husband avoids certain veggies in our day to day (texture) and the way Chef Josh cooks - well we've never left a plate bare, I can tell you that much. And when Chef Josh isn't looking.. we may have licked our plates clean. Pickling, crisping, pureeing, caramelizing - everything he puts in front of you "WOWs". Besides the food he serves, which is well worth the money, Josh's service is unparalleled. He is prompt, friendly and wonderful to chat with. He brings everything in and does all clean up as if he was never even there. Whether it's a date night, an intimate gathering or a group to impress - I would recommend hiring Chef Josh 110%. If you're even considering a private chef, look no further because there truly is no better!

4.999 stars. Chef Josh made my 40th birthday party memorable and amazing for 22 people at my home…read more We asked a few questions to start and knew he was the right chef for us right away. He doesn't have a set menu, but sources the ingredients the morning of depending on what looks good and what's in season. We had three or four passed appetizers, a salad course, a grouper / risotto course, and a caramel bar for dessert. Everything was so delicious and all of the guests raved. I have no idea how he was able to cook all of that food for that many people in our home kitchen and make it so flavorful. To keep all of the food at a perfect temperature must have been extremely challenging. Chef Josh was such a cool person also, entertaining, always happy, and so respectful of our home. Thanks so much, Josh. We hope to have you help us out again at our next event.

Very nice place. Food was yummy. Since I have only been here once I will give it 4 stars.read more

I love that their meals are organic and Marcella (the owner) is an amazing chef and will even cater events if you want to feed a group of people.

This was a Once-in-a-Lifetime Culinary Experience!!!…read more Hiring Chef Julia Shelley of French Chef at Home was truly one of the best decisions I've ever made.From the moment she arrived, her energy, professionalism, and attention to detail set the tone for what would become an unforgettable evening. I knew the menu I selected would be challenging, but for Chef Julia it was handled with effortless precision. Every dish was executed flawlessly, presented beautifully, and layered with flavors that genuinely changed the way I interpret food. It wasn't just dinner, it was an experience. Her artistry and skill level are unmatched, and the passion she brings to her craft is evident in every bite. This experience completely elevated my perception of what a private chef can be. If I could have her cook for me every day, I absolutely would. I'm already looking forward to the next opportunity to work with French Chef at Home. Thank you, Chef Julia, for a night we will never forget. Please come back soon.

It had it's own unique taste and it wasn't TOO hot which I liked. The empanada was great. Extremely tasty, well seasoned beef. I hope I run into Chef on the streets again soon so I can buy another! Also, he has several different variations of empanadas. I tried the original beef.

Holy Empanada!!!!!…read more Major Events hired Ched Delano to provide his freshly made empanadas for a 120 person tailgate we were hired to cater. All I can say is....they were a hit!!! Numerous guests commented on the punch of flavors these little flaky guys provided!!!

I was entertained by Chef Daniel. He was born and raised in Italy in the Lazio region. I had talked…read morewith him a bit while he prepared a 36" Paella from scratch in the back yard of a dear friend's promotion ceremony. Although I have heard of Paellas being made by personal chefs or other 'specialty' catering companies, I thought it extremely challenging for Daniel to make it for a client, especially since there was going to be a Chef (me) attending the celebration. He even questioned me as to my credentials . . . I did the same with him. I think it's slightly a Chef thing. I figured Daniel caught on to me at that point when I was very curious as to his final product since Paella is one of the most technically difficult dishes to pull off. Since I had participated in a similar Paella party at one of my camping adventures in our RV, I knew the sequence that Daniel was following. He executed perfectly. I think Daniel also provided a bit of charcuterie as an appetizer, but it was the Paella that stole the show. Daniel even brought me a plastic fork (culinary school all over again) to test the creation as the rice was cooking to sample the flavor, consistency and doneness. BTW, Daniel even had a nice crusty bottom on that paella. Super nice guy. My five stars represents my hope for this company, although this was certainly not a five-star meal; it was however, a skillfully executed dinner party with Chef Daniel at the helm.
