This was an amazing dinner! We had a moderately sized group for a family vacation and with 4 small children, we opted to have a dinner in home. This was absolutely amazing! I can’t emphasize enough how much our family enjoyed this and how incredible the food was! Chef Luke was very informative (which we loved), the food was tasty, served quickly!! There was plenty of food for everyone with a large menu to choose from. I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a private dinner or event. We are hoping to book them again this year!!

West Hartford Events were amazing and really made our wedding day special. We chose to do a really small ceremony in the backyard of an air bnb, and this team was recommended by our hosts. They showed up to prepare a private dinner for us while we were taking pictures and prepared an outstanding three-course meal for us and our guests. Their menu was fantastic. The options were all appealing and the items we went with were truly fantastic. Their timing was on point and as soon as we finished the ceremony, Chef Luke already had our appetizers ready for us to eat. We ate like kings and queens that day.
We were so lucky to have this team by our side. They made our day special.

We were celebrating a family birthday and we used Luke as our personalchef. He was excellent. He responded quickly, provided us with an impressive menu with many different options. He came on time and brought everything he needed. All prep was done on site with high quality products. His price was all inclusive and extremely reasonable. We ended up with a delicious meal and were able to enjoy the entire evening with family. I would highly recommend Luke!

We hired Luke and Sasha for a surprise Father’s Day dinner and they were wonderful. Luke was so helpful from the beginning and worked within our budget to find the best menu for the event. They did a beautiful job creating tasty dishes, and didn’t mind when my sisters dog poked his head in a few times to check out the grub in the kitchen. They even cleaned up the dishes as they went. The chocolate lava cake was my personal favorite, but everything was so delicious. We would definitely hire them again!

Luke (and Sasha) were excellent! We hired him for my Mom’s 60th birthday for 8 adults. We had a charcuterie board and crab cakes for appetizers, and for dinner we had stuffed lobster and short ribs with mashed potato’s and Brussels sprouts as sides. The food was amazing, they were on time, cleaned up and also were very good with my 4 year old twins who were very interested in watching him cook. We would definitely hire again!
