Chef Kirby's food was delicious. Setup was scheduled at 3:30 for a 4:00pm event and Chef arrived at 4:17pm. Chef contacted me at 3:30 to let me know they would arrive at 4:30 and I had them remove an item from the menu so they could arrive sooner. In doing so, the 2 bags of ice requested did not get purchased. I had assumed plates, napkins, & cutlery would be provided, but they were not. I keep a bag of those items as a backup for events and all beverages had been chilled prior to the event. Chef was only requested to setup, yet stayed to make sure all needs were met. All attendees raved about the food and those things are what changed my review from 3 to 4 stars. I will use Chef Kirby again and will make sure to specify exactly what items are needed and be explicit about setup times and punctuality.

Chef Kibby was great! She made a beautiful meal and was very understanding when our 20 month old daughter got sick while she was preparing our meal. She knew being a parent comes first and was able to pack up everything up for us. Will definitely work with her again!

Chef Maria was absolutely wonderful to work with and I highly recommend her. The food was prepared perfectly and the presentation was beautiful. She’s a true professional and a really nice person as a bonus.
