What sticks out for me was Michael’s professionalism. From our very first contact, through helping organize menu, he did what he said and said what he did.
During meal preparation, he was like a great ref in a sporting event. He stayed out the way, prepared the dish and allowed us enjoy the moment

Michael prepared the most wonderful birthday dinner for the four of us. He was highly responsive and professional right from the start and helped create the perfect multiple course meal. He went above and beyond incorporating items we liked ie foie gras and fresh truffles.
Each course was sumptuous and elegant and we also enjoyed the delicious appetizers. He worked with us as our schedules altered due to a snowstorm. We highly recommend him and will definitely hire him again.

Meals by Michael was a great experience from beginning to end. Getting a bid done was quick, getting the menu set for our group of 15 was painless and the food offered was fantastic!. It was as if he knew my culinary tastes. When they arrived they were almost invisible with how quiet and quickly they worked. Everything was spotless when they left. Overall it was a wonderful time for my guests and I and the food was top notch. My husband said the dessert was one of his top 5 of all time. I also loved all the local food they sourced. We highly recommend Meals by Michael for any event big or small.

Michael cooked our group an amazing dinner during our weekend in Tahoe. He was easy to communicate with on the menu, a pleasure to work with and the food was fantastic. I'd high recommend Meals by Michael.
