    Shrimp Cannelloni
    Holly S.

    Paco was our chef for my birthday party in Temecula. Every dish he made was excellent and he was such a professional! Highlights were the shrimp cannelloni and the steak with vegetable risotto! So delicious! Paco is charming and worth the investment!

    Had my 50th bday weekend in a beautiful chateau in Temecula and it would not have been as memorable if not for the AMAZING CHEF Paco and his culinary creations. He crafted phenomenal meals for lunch, dinner, brunch and dinner for 2 days. I have to tell you first, he is so kind, easy to work with, so accommodating, Professional, clean and of course gifted with cooking skills. He took us on a culinary journey that every single one of my 40 guests was raving about. The food not only tasted great, prepared and coordinated in perfect timing that all were served at the right time and temperature. The dishes were made with the freshest and best ingredients. We had salads, wraps, fruit salads, paninis, charcuterie, Spanish egss, bacon, bread, crossaints, pork tenderloin, steaks, tri tips, carbonara, seafood paella, shrimp risotto just to name some. Every single one was DELICIOUS! Successful event because of him!

    Fantastic dinner! Every course was amazing. Chef Paco was so talented and organized! The salmon tartare & beef carpaccio were especially delicious!!!

    Tarta de Chocolate with Berries and Ice Cream, perfect!

    Wow. Our party of five must have said 'wow' about a thousand times throughout our delicious and beautiful meal from Chef Paco. We were genuinely blown away with every single course. The taste was 1000/10 and the presentation was so beautiful and thoughtfully plated. We had the salmon tartare, spare ribs, garlic shrimp, caprese salad, filet mignon, and tarta de chocolate for dessert. Every single dish was incredible, I would highly recommend using him for your next event - you truly won't regret it. Thank you again for a perfect night, Chef, it was one of the best meals of our lives!

    Paco was absolutely fabulous! He came out to do a private dinner for my bachelorette party. He crafted a 5 course menu after I picked out a few items from a few of his menus that sparked my interest. Everything was delicious! 10/10 highly recommend

    Paco is the best chef! Every dish was made perfectly and served perfectly! One of the best meals I've had!!!

    We were lucky enough to get two meals, breakfast and dinner and both were fantastic. Flavor filled, beautifully presented and utterly delicious! Bravo Chef Paco you were amazing!

    Chef Gonzalez is absolutely AMAZING!!! All around, from beginning to end, his execution was perfect and his dishes were scrumptious! Easy communication, punctual and thoughtful, as one in our party had dietary restrictions, that he happily accommodated. Chef Gonzalez prepared 2 meals services for our party (breakfast and dinner) and did not disappoint. Often, dishes look great back lack in flavor, but not with Chef Gonzalez's dishes. Every bite was well seasoned with complex flavors shining through with our entrees. Even the salad was divine! Chef Gonzalez was a big highlight for our group getaway and it was a pleasure eating his food!

    Chef Paco in his element

    Fantastic chef. Had him for a dinner party and he made almost the best meal I have ever had--in or out of a restaurant. Every course he made was delicious and loved by our party of 12. He accommodated vegetarians in our group with wonderful substitutes. Also he's a lovely person and generous with telling us details about how he made our meal.

    Pasta carbonara appetizer

    We had an amazing experience with Chef Paco. We were a group of 7 in town for a bachelorette party. The food was amazing, Paco was easy to work with, and extremely professional. We had scallops, pasta carbonara, an arugula citrus salad, short rib with mash, and tiramisu. Everything was beautifully presented and delicious. Our group especially loved the scallops and accompanying sauce and were impressed with how tasty the salad course was. I would definitely recommend Paco for a private chef dinner.

    See all

    I was looking for a caterer for a small {50 guests}wedding. After talking to 9 different…read morecompanies, I chose Flavor Chef. during my first call I could tell the owner was all about making my wedding perfect and serving the food my guests would love. Well he did not disappoint, from the appetizers to the desserts, each course was a hit. I am still getting compliments about the food served. I guess the best part of my experience with Perfect Chef was how easy they were to work with, nothing was too hard or complicated. Their staff were efficient and polite and did it all with a smile. Did I mention their cost was less then the other catering companies. I guess my experience was like the other reviewers....EXCELLENT. I would use them again and definitely recommend them to family and friends.

    I can't speak to the quality of the product from this organization however I was just driving home…read moreon Rancho Bernardo Road on Sunday, August 23 at 1:40 PM. A service truck with all of the advertising for Flavor Chef Catering was driving extremely erratically, well over the speed limit, and was tailgating me to the point that I was worried they would hit me. I was turning into my residential area with my signal on when the driver of this truck tried to split the lanes and almost caused an accident. When you have all of your advertising on a panel truck, you need to understand that that's just as important as having a good or bad product. I would never use this company and I would make sure that if I ever have the chance I would let people know not to use them either. Driving so erratically that they almost caused an accident is more damaging than a bad meal.
