Betti and her team absolutely blew us away. From accommodating our dietary quirks to obsessing over every last detail, they turned dinner into an event. She made gluten-free dessert that was mind-blowingly delicious. Add in gorgeous tableware, friendly faces, and fresh incredible tasting food, and you’ve got a private-chef experience that’s hard to top. Highly recommended!

Details: Special occasion (birthday, anniversary, etc.) • 11 - 20 guests • Dinner • Dessert • I'm flexible • Dessert • American - casual • American - formal • Italian • Mediterranean / Middle Eastern • Gluten free or celiac • Nut allergies • I'm flexible • Only once • At the pro’s location • My home, venue, etc.

Bettina and The Kitchen Door were fantastic for our wedding! The team arrived early to get familiar with our venue and helped with planning, even assisting with shopping lists. They ensured the buffet-style dinner ran smoothly, with desserts timed perfectly, and put together a delightful coffee bar for guests at the end of the night. The Kitchen Door team’s attention to detail and top-notch service made our celebration unforgettable!

Details: 76 - 100 guests • Wedding reception • Upbeat / lively • Private residence • Beer • Wine • Liquor / mixed drinks • Non-alcoholic beverages • I'm flexible • I'm flexible • Setup / cleanup

We had a fantastic dinner thanks to kitchen door! The food was beyond amazing and she was so kind and helpful, answering all sorts of questions, and even teaching and explaining the tricks and techniques she used. My group enjoyed every second, from before the beginning and hearing her explain and teach, until well past the desert where we all were in a food coma and she handled clean up. Overall lived the experience

Details: Brunch / dinner party • 3 - 5 guests • Dinner • Premium (high end ingredients) • American - formal • Italian • Southern • Mexican / Latin American • Mediterranean / Middle Eastern • French • Asian • Meal prepared onsite • Only once • My home, venue, etc.
