Words cannot describe the awe I felt when I saw the spread Sarah prepared for our group trip. I was off running around watching a sunset hike and when I came back to meet everyone for dinner, I was seriously blown away by the incredible food set up. Every single element is expertly executed. The food is f***ing phenomenal. The attention to detail with the forks, plates, flowers. SARAH IS A GOSH DARN GENIUS. YOUD BE A FOOL TO NOT HIRE HER. read more

Two years later Sarah has done it again. I love working with a chef that you can give boundaries and say go. I let her choose the menu. That way it's seasonal and makes sense for this time of year. Also by giving her the freedom to choose I know she's passionate about the food she is cooking. And it was incredible. This time around she did Mediterranean. I couldn't be more happy with the overall results. read more

Sarah is an incredibly talented chef and provided an overall culinary/design/dining experience I'll truly never forget. Coming from San Francisco, I've participated in several small and large events catered by personal chefs and Sarah is among the very best I've had the pleasure of trying. I appreciate that she checked in with all 25+ invitees to ensure she was customizing her menu not only based off potential allergies, but preferences and favorited alternative options. I'm still unsure how she was able to have so many dishes prepared/served simultaneously with the right consistency/temperature, but she pulled it off perfectly and I can confidently say that many of us concluded our dining experience uncomfortably full! (Because we literally couldn't stop trying every dish / going for seconds). Thanks Sarah! read more

If I could give Sarah 10 stars I would. She was exceptionally professional but also approachable and relatable. She read the room perfectly and responded accurately knowing whether to leave us be, joke around, or tell us a story. The table decor and presentation was jaw dropping. My friends planned this dinner and hired her for my 40th birthday celebration at our Airbnb and I was floored at the table set up when I came out of the bedroom. This gal has many MANY talents! She was able to accommodate both meat eaters and vegetarians, but also gluten free and vegan. We started with a charcuterie board with all the fixings that satiated both the meat and cheese eaters, and the dairy free-veggie crowd. Dinner started with a plum salad and then jeweled rice with roasted chicken or mushrooms and seasonal roasted veggies, and ended with an olive oil and thyme cake topped and layered with grapefruit (all gluten and dairy free). I can't even find the words for the entire meal. Just book her! It was beyond!!! She somehow cleaned up and did all the dishes in the open kitchen without us even realizing. She genuinely is such a cool person that has crazy talent at what she does. Thank you Sarah for making this celebration one to remember. So grateful you were a part of it! read more

All I can say is wow, wow, wow! We hired Sarah to prepare three meals for my extended family of 14 over the holidays, and boy did she deliver! She accommodated my niece's nut allergy, my nephew's pescatarianism, and my father's immunosuppression, and prepared three very different types of meals that we all heartedly enjoyed. I appreciated that she was super careful with Covid precautions, and also that her estimate was right on target,. No surprises at the end! She was really great with our kids as well, and the presentation of her meals was fabulous! Not having to think about, prepare, and clean up after our family dinners was definitely a highlight of the trip - thank you, Sarah! If you are on the fence, just go ahead and pull the trigger. Chef Sarah and her tasty creations are absolutely worth it! read more

I hired Sarah to be our private chef for a night for my sister's bachelorette. She brought in EVERYTHING! This included beautiful place settings, utensils, drinkware, and the most beautiful flowers. She curated a delicious meal and was so efficient with her time. She also packed up all the leftovers so we could enjoy the rest of the weekend. She created a luxurious experience for all of us and it was a highlight of the weekend. We loved her and would definitely recommend her!! read more

Sarah was incredible to work with from start to finish!

Our whole group loved her, and her dinner was the highlight of our bachelorette weekend! Would strongly recommend her to anyone! read more

Sarah did an incredible job for a private dinner that I bought as a gift. She was helpful in nailing down the menu, the food and ambience ("desert boho chic") were raved about, and her cost estimate was spot on. @Sarah - thanks again for your help crafting a memorable night. read more

Sarah was a surprise from my family for my 30th birthday. The first time I have ever had the honor of experiencing a personal chef. Sarah was awesome from her personality, her presentation with decorations and the food; I mean I am still dreaming of the food. I have never had a perfect steak or asparagus in my life. She made us a dinner with four courses and sides along with a brunch in the morning. Some of the comments from my group were "I'm going to be dreaming about this meal on my death bed" and "If I ever need a last meal this would be it". I wish I lived closer to Sarah so I could experience her awesomeness more and more. My family and friends will definitely continue to work with Sarah in the future. thank you Sarah!!!! read more

I had a small event out in the desert, and had the pleasure of tasting chefs Sarah's amazing dishes. Everything looked wonderful, smelled delightful and tasted delicious. My friends and I marveled at how beautiful each dish was set up and prepared, and could not wait to dig in. The salad, the chicken dishes, Mac and cheese were phenomenal... I may have had several servings, but was glad that I saved room for dessert, some of sort of berry cobbler which everyone loved. I'm so happy, we found Sarah and would highly recommend her and I'll definitely be coming back to her. Thank you for an amazing culinary experience Sarah! read more

There aren't enough great things to say about Sarah! She is spectacular and so so talented. We hired her for my boyfriend's birthday dinner party and it was the highlight of the weekend. Not only was the food amazing (truly one of the best meals I've ever had!), but the table decor was stunning and Sarah was just the nicest human! 10/10 would hire her a million times over! read more

I'm always a little skeptical when a single chef is catering a large group- mostly because quality sometimes gets lost within the logistics of such a big undertaking. This was definitely not the case with Sarah! Quite the opposite in fact. Sarah miraculously managed to prepare some of the highest quality dishes I've very tasted to more than a dozen of campers who were similarly impressed. I can honestly say that many of the flavor profiles and food pairings were a first for me. On top of the excellent food provided sarah was a very gratuitous host and completely went out of her way to make sure we were comfortable and we'll take care of while visiting her beautiful property. Thanks Sarah! read more

Chef Sarah is amazing!! My husband and I had booked a chef that ended up canceling on us last minute. I then found Sarah who stepped in, even though she was already booked that weekend, and made us the most incredible dinner and provided beautiful decor. That other chef cancelling was the beat thing that could've happened because we found Sarah!! Anytime we visit Joshua tree in the future, we will be using Sarah's services!! read more

Sarah was so wonderful to work with from beginning to end! She made the process of choosing a menu so easy, providing options and guidance along the way. Her calming and professional demeanor made it so easy to coordinate with her from afar! And on the night of the private dinner she put on for my wild bunch of 10 girlfriends in the desert, she was so awesome! She came to our AirBnB and set up the most beautiful table with dishes, fresh flowers, candles, napkins, and more --all of which she brought herself -- and made the most gorgeous grazing board with cheese, meat, veggies, and little beautiful surprises. The Mediterranean meal she created was phenomenal. We enjoyed every bite! She was so kind and good-humored while being surrounded by all of us gals who were in party mode! She cleaned and packed everything up at the end of the night and made it so easy for us every step of the way. I would recommend Chef Sarah and her incredible cooking to everyone!! read more

Sarah is simply amazing. Not only is she an absolutely versatile and fabulous chef, but she is incredibly easy to work and plan with. I found myself standing in the kitchen (6 feet apart of course!) chatting with Sarah about life and all things food. This is the second time I've worked with Sarah and I cannot recommend her enough! It is clear she knows exactly what she's doing and is committed to satisfying every client she works with. I can't wait for my next party. read more
