Kevin and his Sous far exceeded my expectations! They were professional, courteous, personable, attentive and classy. And, for the food… beyond delicious! Everything came out in perfect order and timing.

Have confidence in Kevin!

Chef Logan was outstanding hosting 7 women for my sister's bachelorette! He showed up on time with everything he needed to execute without any interruptions. I was concerned about the stove in our VRBO, as the vent was very low above the stove, but he made it work perfectly because each dish was... chef's kiss!
The planning process was simple and easy; we chose our dishes based off of his menu and we were also able to modify selections based on dietary restrictions within our group. He even accommodated our eating location change as we were enjoying the outside patio so much we decided to take the first course out there in the gorgeous San Diego weather.
Each dish was plated perfectly, and the portions were larger than I imagined; we were all very full and enjoyed every bite. I've attached photos of our food, however, we failed to get one of dessert as we were so excited for it (hazelnut panna cotta with pistachios) that we devoured it without a photo opp, lol.
Thank you again so much Chef Logan, and we're so happy we were able to have you as part of an epic bachelorette weekend!
