Chef Aaron and his assistant did a fantastic job catering my event. The food prep was fantastic and everything was delicious. My guests raved about it!!! He arrived hours early, was increadably responsive and a great value, and made my party a hugh hit. I can't say enough great things about him and his assistant. I'd absolutely use him in the future.

I was so pleasantly surprised by chef Esquibel! His punctuality was perfect, his food was so delicious that all my guests couldn't stop talking about the food, he gave me exactly the food I wanted and he was very down to earth. Oh and the communication was great! I'm definitely hiring him again for other events!

I hired a chef Aaron for a bachelorette party, and it was absolutely amazing! The chef was timely, the portions were generous, and the food was outstanding! They provided excellent service, even going as far as opening the door for us while we enjoyed the party in the back yard and guests arrived. I highly recommend this chef and can't wait to book them again in the future!

I have NO WORDS! Chef Aaron is absolutely all that. He prepared the most remarkable Spanish-style dinner for my family, everyone was blown away (including those w/ food sensitivities that he catered to wonderfully). You can tell (& taste) the care he puts into his craft. He was also a delight to work with & I can't wait to call him for the next event.
