We were so impressed with Chef Will’s menu and preparation. We hired him last minute for a dinner party of 17 and he did not disappoint! We had a tomato themed dinner and he utilized tomatoes in nearly every dish. Everything was delicious. Highly recommend his services!!!

Is it possible to give a 20/10? Will was absolutely amazing and a pleasure to work with. The food and presentation were phenomenal, and multiple guests told us it was probably the first wedding they’d attended where they ate every single bite of everything on their plate!
We were running a bit behind throughout the day, and Will handled it seamlessly, everything still came out fresh and perfect. We truly enjoyed working with him and can’t wait to hire him for future events. Highly, highly HIGHLY recommend!
