    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.

    We wanted something special, but not too over the top, for our one-year-old's birthday party, so I…read moretook to Yelp to find a catering service. Since we had relocated to LA, but were still planning the party in San Diego, we wanted to support a local business, particularly in the Mira Mesa area if possible. Of the many I found, Elaine stood out to me as approachable but still very professional. She worked with me on creating a menu for the event and continued to allow me to add to it as our guest list continued to grow, which helped assuage the many stressors that come with planning a party for about 100 guests. The food itself was amazing and we're still getting feedback about how great (and unique!) it was even 2 months later. Despite my concerns, we had more than enough to feed everyone and our family was fighting over the leftovers :-) "You have more chicken than me!" I honestly can't thank Elanie enough for helping make our event memorable and would gladly use her services and recommend her again and again.

    Chef Elaine was an absolute treat!!! She was an excellent chef at our small dinner party. Her…read moredemeanor, candor and chef talents were absolutely incredible. My husband and I are big foodies.... 100 plus Michelin restaurants, etc. by our standards, Chef Elaine is awesome. Our very personalized menu consisted of caviar, various appetizers, beef Wellington, risotto and more. She spoiled us dearly and we had a fabulous time. She even gave our guests a bit of caviar education--wow! Thank you Chef Elaine, you were amazing! Can't wait to have you back.

    Chef Jillian made the perfect ending to an already incredible family reunion week in Temecula. We…read morehad heard so many wonderful things about her from the sommeliers at the wineries we visited--every time we mentioned that Jillian was coming to prepare a private dinner for us, they would absolutely rave about her. After experiencing her food ourselves, we completely understand why! Jillian created a beautiful four-course Spanish-inspired dinner that was truly unforgettable. Every dish was delicious, thoughtful, and made with so much care. But beyond the incredible food, Jillian & her staff brought such a special warmth to the evening that made it feel personal and memorable for our entire family. It was the perfect way to celebrate a wonderful week together, and we will be talking about that dinner for a long time. If you're considering booking Chef Jillian, don't hesitate--you will be in for a very special experience!

    Chef Jillian Fae provided the most incredible dining experience of my life. Even before she…read morearrived, the amount of intricate detail that went into our menu proposal. It means a lot when a chef really cares about what they do. Now... the food... almost indescribable how impeccable it was. We cut the filet mignon with a butter knife and it melted in our mouths. My favorite moment was the creme brulee in a fresh cold peach with a cherry compote crumble... chef jillian, i will not stop thinking about this experience until we see you next time. Thank you.
