Our experience with NW Chef was absolutely flawless. Josh's communication and overall desire to make our small event perfect for my husband's birthday was amazing. He has a genuine desire to serve and to provide an experience that is stress free and tasty. And to watch him turn your kitchen into a 5 star restaurant in itself is an experience. The menu was gorgeous, colorful and absolutely delicious! And when we thought he was finished he continued by scouring my kitchen from top to bottom. WHAT A JOY it was to have both him and his wife Melody in our home. Thank you guys for making my husband's birthday one we will never forget!

Chef Joshua put together an unbelievable dinner for us! Our guests have been messaging us all morning commenting on how amazing the food was last night. He creatively used locally sourced, high quality ingredients putting together a gorgeous dinner that will be memorable for all of us.
Furthermore, we found Chef Joshua to be highly professional and just fun to be around. He brings a great deal of integrity to the process as well. He quoted us a certain amount and in the end charged less because he didn’t spend as much as he thought. I would have never have known the difference. The meal was overall a great value and we got to keep all leftovers!
The real icing on the cake was that Chef Josh pulled off an amazing meal after our oven went out on him. He didn’t flinch once and improvised with our grill. And the meal once again tasted amazing and was gorgeous.
Chef Joshua- Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! You created a memorable evening for all of us. And you are incredibly talented.
