Wow, there is not enough amazing things I can say working with Chef JaQues and his crew. First, he was easy to communicate with and has an amazing menu to choose from. Second, the event was with some very particular people and he blew them away! I heard nothing of the actual event, only about the food and service. Coming from this group, that says A LOT! I would highly recommend InGenious Elegance Cuisines to anyone who wants awesome food and great service.

Chef Jacques and server Simone provided THE BEST experience for my husband's 40th birthday dinner. I wanted to create a special experience for my husband, our parents, and our closest friends- and it was just a dream!!! The appetizers (scallops, crab cakes, tuna tartar, and buffalo chicken) were AMAZING- we had a fun cocktail hour before a 3 course meal with desert at the end. Each course- starting with a bisque, then focaccia, then surf n turf dinner-- and then THE BEST CRÈME BRULEE of all time!! It was such an amazing experience- top notch service and food. They bring all the necessary equipment down to every detail- water pitchers, decor, candle lights, even trash cans- they even clean all the dishes and tableware at the end!! It was so nice to wake up to a clean house after such an event. Jacques and Simone were SO FUN AND KIND. We loved them and every second of this experience. If you're looking for a fun and special night to share with others- you HAVE to use them. All of our family and friends had nothing but great things to share about our time. We will definitely use them again and recommend to all our friends!

Details: Special occasion (birthday, anniversary, etc.) • 6 - 10 guests • Dinner • Premium (high end ingredients) • American - formal • Meal prepared onsite • Only once • My home, venue, etc.

Wow! Chef JaQues and his staff did a fantastic job of making our party a special experience! Chef JaQues and his staff came to our house and prepared a delicious feast for everyone. The food was all prepared perfectly and cooked onsite. The staff also set up and created a gorgeous table display from which the food was served. The food was delicious as was the desserts. They showed up promptly and began preparing and cooking the food and it was served right on time. Not only did they do an outstanding job with the food, they inspired us and our friends with their charming personalities. What a fun group to work with!

Details: Special occasion (birthday, anniversary, etc.) • 21 - 35 guests • Dessert • Cocktail hour / hors d'oeuvres • I'm flexible • American - casual • I'm flexible • Only once • At the pro’s location • My home, venue, etc.

We loved having Chef Jacques to make our meal for our very intimate wedding. From the very first moment he was very responsive and understood my needs and requests for the menu. He arrived on the agreed time and was very friendly. food was DELICIOUS!!! And the presentation was amazing. We also had the butler service and I also wanted to thank Chelsea for her kindness and assistance during the evening. Would definitely hire again and recommend everyone to do so! You won’t regret it
