Received a response to my inquiry within minutes from Chef Josh. We were given many menu options for our home dinner for 6, and those with very restricted food preferences were accommodated. Since Chef Josh was not an available for our desired event date, he arranged for 2 other chefs to cook for us that evening. Chefs Adam and Steve arrived 2 hours early for prep and had the meal ready on time. They handled the serving and clean up as well. Food was very tasty and we were all quite pleased with our special night.

Details: Special occasion (birthday, anniversary, etc.) • 3 - 5 guests • Dinner • I'm flexible • Dessert • American - formal • Meal prepared onsite • Only once • My home, venue, etc.

Chef Josh, Steve and Lewis are a talented and spectacular team. They planned and beautifully executed a meal for 12 for my husband's birthday. From the charcuterie board to the dessert, the food was flavorful and delicious! Highlights included the pan seared scallop appetizer and the beautifully seasoned and tender ribeye steak. Each course was a hit and the wine pairings Chef Josh suggested were wonderful complement to the unique flavors of each dish. It was a really fun and enjoyable experience for everyone. Chef Josh was wonderful to work with from meticulous planning the menu, to meeting needs of special food requirements for some of my guests, to responsive communication through the process. He and his team were professional, arrived on time and left my kitchen looking better than they found it. Thanks again for a great night!! I highly recommend Chef Josh.
