Absolutely 5 stars! From start to finish, the experience was amazing. His response time was quick, professional, and made the whole process easy from the jump. Even when we pivoted our menu, he was able to accommodate us on site without missing a beat.
The food was top tier — fresh, flavorful, and you can tell he really takes pride in what he does. Everything tasted incredible, and the quality really stood out. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a personal chef who is reliable, talented, and truly delivers.
We will be using him AGAIN!

We used Kency Catering Plus on December 23rd for our family Christmas, and I honestly cannot say enough good things.
This was an especially meaningful gathering—ten people, including our two sons and their wives, three grandchildren , and my 95-year-old mother. Making memories mattered deeply to us, and Kincy Catering Plus delivered in every possible way.
They arrived not only on time, but fully prepared and ready to go. The food was absolutely incredible and exactly what was promised! Every dish was delicious, beautifully prepared, and enjoyed by everyone. Beyond the food, the kindness and warmth of the people made such a difference.
Their communication leading up to the event was impeccable, thank you Chef!!! which gave us complete peace of mind.
They truly made our Christmas fantastic. We were able to relax, enjoy each other, and focus on what mattered most. Best time ever and delicious!
We are so grateful and highly, highly recommend Kency Catering

We hired Kincy Catering for our son and daughter in law's wedding rehearsal dinner. The food arrived warm and on time and all of it was delicious! My personal favorite was the home-made scalloped potatoes, and all was a hit with our guests! Emani was quick to respond, professional and friendly. I would highly recommend Kincy Catering for your next catering need!

Talk about an awesome meal prepared on such a short notice. I reached out to Kincy on a Tuesday and had everything set up for that Friday which was Valentine’s Day. Such a great guy to work with and the meal he prepared for us after choosing from his menu was one of the best meals I have had in years. Recommend to anybody looking for a private chef kincy is go too!

Although I didn’t end up booking this time, I still wanted to share how great the experience was communicating with Kincy. He was super responsive, patient with all my questions, and really worked with me to explore different options. You can tell he genuinely cares about what he does and about creating a good experience for his clients. I truly appreciated that and would absolutely reach out again in the future. Thanks, Kincy!

What a customer should know about my pricing is that it’s a competitive market and I love to serve so more than likely I’ll do my best to give the lowest quote.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
My typical process for working with a new customer is first off I don’t have customers I have family members so I typically like to make them feel like family.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I’ve been cooking for 20 years and I have a degree in culinary arts and business.
