Chef Mathias was perfect for our event! He shopped ahead of time, arrived when we agreed, and had an amazing meal served hot when the guests arrived. He was flexible as the situation on the ground changed and kept the meal service moving. It will be my pleasure to work with him again!

We celebrated our anniversary with a private dinner by Chef Mathias, and it exceeded all expectations. From the moment the table was set, we knew we were in for something special. Every detail was beautifully handled. We started with mini quiches and croque-monsieur for aperitif, then enjoyed a delicious spread of salmon and homemade charcuterie. The highlight of the evening was the Peking duck with orange, perfectly cooked and paired with amazing vegetables. After a lovely cheese course, dessert completely wowed us: an incredible Paris-Brest and classic crêpes Suzette. What made it even more special is that Chef Mathias has cooked for the President of France, and you can truly feel that level of excellence in his cuisine. All of our guests loved the experience, and the wine pairings were spot on. Highly recommend for a unique and elevated dining experience at home!

I recently had the chance to enjoy a meal prepared by Chef Mathias, and it was an amazing experience. Every dish was perfectly balanced, full of flavor, and beautifully presented. You can immediately tell he has a strong background and real expertise. The quality of the ingredients and the attention to detail truly made the difference. Beyond the food itself, everything was smooth, professional, and very enjoyable. It felt like having a fine dining experience at home. I would absolutely recommend Chef Mathias to anyone looking for a private chef in Los Angeles.

Mathias was fantastic to work with from start to finish. He was incredibly helpful and went above and beyond what we asked of him, taking initiative to handle things we hadn’t even thought of. His service and hospitality were truly excellent; he made the entire process feel easy and well taken care of. We’d absolutely work with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone reliable and thoughtful. Thank you Mathias!
