Private Chefs in Abu Dhabi

The cost of a private chef for a dinner party usually ranges between 216 AED ($59) and over 367 AED ($100) per person. However, several factors can impact the final cost. Experiences near the Yas Bay Waterfront often command different rates to those in Al Zahiyah, for example. Also bear in mind that key public dates and holidays generally command stronger demand, and that experience prices are tiered based on the number of guests in your group. The starting price listed on your chosen experience page should give you a rough idea of what you’ll pay to rent a chef. Alternatively, you can reach out to our helpful Concierge team for more information about pricing.
