Chef Johnny was amazing! Right from the start, he was responsive and flexible with our menu choices and budget. We opted for a 4-course Argentinian dinner, and he delivered beyond our expectations. What impressed us the most was Chef Johnny's multitasking skills. He cooked up a storm, served us at the table, and magically cleaned up the entire kitchen without us even realizing it. He came prepared with everything he needed, and his attention to detail was spot on. Chef Johnny's food was absolutely delicious, and his presentation was beautiful. We couldn't have asked for a better private chef for our bachelorette party. We highly recommend him to everyone!

I asked Chef Johnny to cook for my parents as a surprise date night, and he was amazing. He was responsive, very professional, put together a creative vegan menu that was innovative and delicious, and was entertaining company. We will definitely be hiring him again, especially for larger group gatherings.

My wife and I worked with Chef Johnny to host a dinner party for 8 guests for her birthday. It was a 3 course menu - 2 appetizers, salad, and main course. We were first struck by his creativity with menu suggestions, combining interesting ingredients in new ways. From initial preparation to last bite, the results were superb! Chef Johnny provided a seamless experience that made for a truly joyous event.

Details: Special occasion (birthday, anniversary, etc.) • 6 - 10 guests • Cocktail hour / hors d'oeuvres • Dinner • Premium (high end ingredients) • American - casual • American - formal • Meal prepared onsite • Only once • My home, venue, etc.

Chef Johnny made my husband’s 40th birthday so special! He arrived on time ready to get cooking and was great with my two young kids. My husband was very touched by this surprise birthday breakfast and was blown away by the Mushroom Trio Tartine. Chef Johnny made the best Bloody Mary I have ever had. Everything was so delicious!! I would recommend him in a heartbeat! Thank you!
