We recently hired Chef Tony for a special brunch to celebrate my wife’s birthday, and it was an absolutely wonderful experience. From start to finish, Tony’s attention to detail and culinary expertise were evident in every dish he prepared. The menu he crafted was both creative and delicious, perfectly tailored to our tastes. Each course was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. Tony’s professionalism and warm personality made the entire experience even more enjoyable. He handled everything seamlessly, allowing us to relax and truly savor the moment. My wife was thrilled, and we couldn’t have asked for a better way to celebrate her special day. We highly recommend Chef Tony to anyone looking for a top-notch personal chef experience. We will definitely be hiring him again for future occasions!

Chef Tony was absolutely phenomenal! His personality was infectious and his food was incredible! From start to finish Chef Tony was easy to work with: communicative, clear, collaborative. He made the entire process a breeze and more than delivered on our expectations. The experience was even better than I could have imagined. Chef Tony made our last day of vacation unforgettable- my only regret is that I didn’t have him come on the first day so I had time to hire him twice! 10/10 recommend hiring Chef Tony - My family will definitely be reaching out again!

Details: Brunch / dinner party • 6 - 10 guests • Breakfast / brunch • Standard (basic ingredients) • American - casual • Gluten free or celiac • Meal prepared onsite • Only once • At the pro’s location • My home, venue, etc.

Tony was amazing! My family had the best time celebrating my mom’s 60th birthday together. All of his food was incredible and creative, and he came up with a wonderful personalized menu. Tony also gave us recommendations for wines that we paired with each course. He was knowledgeable, fun, and engaging, and we had a fantastic time. Highly recommend!
