Karla is amazing. I hired her for a private dinner for 2 for a surprise proposal to my now fiancée and I could not have asked for a better chef than Karla. She worked with me to craft the perfect menu for us and she showed up and did everything. She was able to work with the kitchen at the airbnb and did absolutely everything for us. She cooked a wonderful meal and cleaned up after, leaving the kitchen spotless. And it cannot be understated how amazing her energy is. It was a genuine pleasure working with her. She was so friendly, kind, professional and warm spirited. It was a truly wonderful experience getting to eat the food prepared by someone of her caliber and training. Each course was beautiful and delicious and formed a cohesive meal. My fiancée and I absolutely love her and plan to hire her again for the bachelorette weekend. 10/10 recommend for anyone of any/all party sizes.

I can’t say enough great things about Karla and her team! They made our wedding amazing! Throughout the whole process Karla kept this nervous bride at ease and was extremely communicative every step. Her team showed up and prepared the most amazing 4 course dinner for my family and I. Everyone was blown away by the food and service. Her team cleaned up the entire kitchen going above and beyond! You must hire Karla for your next event. She is a wonderful chef and person.
