We hired Chef Craig for my best friend's bachelorette weekend in Palm Beach and it was truly one of the highlights of our trip! From the moment he arrived to our Airbnb everything was beautifully set up. The table décor was elegant and made the evening feel so special. The food was absolutely incredible. Every single dish was fresh, flavorful and cooked to perfection. Everyone in our group couldn't stop talking about how delicious everything was, from the herb chicken and pasta to the salad and the amazing lemon cheesecake for dessert. It was all outstanding! The service was just as exceptional. The server was so kind, attentive and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the evening. She was wonderful and added so much to the experience. Chef Craig was professional, easy to communicate with, and offered great value for such a high quality private dining experience. If you're celebrating a bachelorette, birthday, anniversary, or any special occasion, I cannot recommend him enough. He truly helped make our weekend unforgettable and I would book him again without hesitation. Thank you for such an amazing evening!

I booked Chef Craig for my husband’s 20 person birthday dinner. We couldn’t have been happier. He was so easy to work with, the food was elevated and delicious, and the tables were beautiful! It was so good that our guests were passing plates so that it didn’t go to waste. I’ll definitely call him again if I have a need.

Details: Special occasion (birthday, anniversary, etc.) • 11 - 20 guests • Dinner • I'm flexible • American - formal • Nut allergies • Meal prepared onsite • Only once • My home, venue, etc.

Chef Craig made a delicious dinner for my family of 10. He perfectly catered to 7 adults and 3 children. His crab cakes were absolutely amazing. Highly recommend Chef Craig!
