I cannot recommend Bobby enough, but I'll try! I am a busy business owner with no time at all to cook, but I like healthy food and I like fresh food, and I was tired of DoorDash and other food delivery coming to me. It was also expensive and unhealthy. Enter Bobby! He comes twice a week to our home and prepares breakfast, lunch, and dinner. His food is delicious! His menus creative! His care and attention visible and taste-able! He has made the best white bean chili I've ever had, the best guacamole I've ever had (and I grew up right by the Mexico border in Southern California, so I like to think me and good guacamole know each other pretty well), his gumbo is to die for...I could just go on for a long time. You can't go wrong with Bobby. He cares. And he's also just a really nice person. And that's always a wonderful thing!

Bobby is very communicative and is always a professional. He always asks for feedback so he can adjust his cooking to your palette.

Bobby and Megan catered my daughter's bridal shower and helped make the event extra special for all of us. His gourmet, yet approachable personal style contributed to the warmth of our event putting everyone at ease. F rom the start, he responded quickly to my request for quote and communicated with me on a regular basis to set the menu and cost. I requested a special cake and he quickly found a source to bake and decorate the cake for me. The food he served was exquisite, offering the right amount of gourmet and simply delicious food. He cooked up some waffles topped with your choice of lavender infused syrup and/or blueberry compote or lemon curd. The asparagus frittata kept us all coming back for more. He came prepared with serving dishes, creating a visual masterpiece as well. Throughout the event Megan anticipated our every need enabling me to focus on hosting my guests. They left the kitchen spotless including rinsing dirty plates and loading the dishwasher I would definitely recommend them. My husband and I are already planning our next event with them!

Chef Bobby was the best. He and his assistant were nothing but professional and were exactly what we were looking for. We had them come to a house we rented while a group of girls and I were in town for a bachelorette party. He planned the perfect menu for a group of girls that had spent all day in wine country. We had so much fun and the bride said having a private chef was the highlight of her trip. Thanks for everything!!

The experience we all had with Bobby Greene was amazing from beginning to end. Throughout the entire process, he was very kind, accommodating, and, from what I hear, his food was divine. I would highly recommend him for any event. Frankly, if there were more stars, I would add them. But five will have to do. For my parents anniversary, I wanted to do something special. I ended up looking into private chefs and decided to put in a request to see what it would take to get this done. This option appealed to me as there is only one nice restaurant where my parents live and they go there every event. I wanted this to be something special for their 30th. Bobby Greene responded to my event request within hours with a bid and a very nice response on how he wanted to be a part of making their anniversary special. From that point forward, he personally helped me along the process and accommodated anything and everything I requested. I had never done anything like this before and had a lot of questions, all of which he answered readily. My mother was a bit picky when it came to the food, but he accommodated every request I had when putting the menu together. He was always very gracious and kind throughout the entire thing even when I thought I was being too pushy. He always made me feel welcome to ask questions and to make requests. I wasnt actually there for the experience, but I requested that my mother write a little excerpt about it so I could include in this review: Our youngest daughter surprised us with Bobby a private chef for our 30th anniversary. We found out when he showed up (we had the pre-warning of cleaning the house and wearing something nice). I felt very uncomfortable with the idea as we have an older home small kitchen and no dishwasher. But what was at first self-consciousness quickly gave way to Bobbys easygoing attitude. He made us feel at ease immediately with his warm, inviting personality. He let us set the ambiance. He could have stayed in the background for the romantic evening or be a part of it. He was so engaging though that we invited him into our evening. As he served each course, he explained what we were eating and how it was prepared. My husband and I met working in a restaurant 31 years prior so we were fascinated by the process. The food was delicious and I have to admit there were no leftovers! Though he is not a baker, he even made my favorite dessert a pineapple upside down cake and it was superb. My husband and I highlight recommend Bobby for any special occasion. He is truly talented; the food is prepared to perfection; and, he is very personable and engaging. We will always remember our 30th with great affection.
