Nina and her sous chef were fantastic in EVERY WAY. We are all foodies and the food was AMAZING. We made minor changes and additions that were perfect. She was a true pro and the food was absolutely perfect. We got the sea bass and the short ribs and EVERY ONE OF THE 13 PEOPLE were thrilled with the experience. I would give them a 12 out of 10!
presentation was beautiful as well. We can't say enough good things.

Chef Nina and her Sous chef Demi were WONDERFUL!
They prepared a wonderful cocktail hour for us, their plating was amazing, and attention to detail was ON POINT! We hired them for a private dinner party of 16 and everyone was thrilled with their selections. And I must say they are VERY fairly priced. We will definitely hire them for future events!
