We had a wonderful time with Chef Mert celebrating my boyfriends birthday. We did the private pizza cooking class and it was so fun. We learned so much and got to eat delicious food. He was so kind and welcoming. Highly recommend!
Davone D.
Great food, Great service, really space.. Very knowledgeable and has easy to follow instructions. All the food was amazing! Would definitely use him in the future!
Eduardo M.
Mert was polite, knowledgeable and patient. He was thoughtful to us as his clients and fun to chat with about his life experiences inside and outside the kitchen. We would absolutely work with him again.
Chef Mert was great. Pleasant and interactive with us. We learned about him as a Chef and as a person outside of cooking. We did a focus on homemade dough. Great meal and fun to do a few of the things Chef Mert had us do. He is excellent.
Danielle D.
So great! Chef Mert is a very talented, hospitable chef who made the experience fun and easy to follow (even for my husband who’s not the best of cooks…). He arrived early, prepped the kitchen, and left it the way he found it. The bread, pizza, and apple pie were all so good, we couldn’t stop eating. We’d definitely take another class with Mert!
Kirsten F.
We had a fantastic time with Chef Mert! We learned a lot about homemade dough, and made a delicious meal. Huge bonus that we had dough to make more pizzas and focaccia right away to cement the skills we’d learned.
DJ M.
We had a great time with Mert, and learned a lot. He was right on time, and well prepared, and had thorough printed recipes to follow along with. Because two of his doughs needed proofing, he brought some pre-made doughs which we baked, and then he had us make fresh doughs that we could bake off later. There were lots of opportunities for hands-on experience, which was something I was hoping for. Overall, it was a great experience, and I would recommend Mert's classes, and look forward to taking another class in the future.
Julia S.
Chef Mert was fantastic! Mert has an expansive knowledge of food and various cuisines and was an amazing teacher. He was also so friendly and the food was absolutely delicious. I would recommend this class to everyone and will definitely be signing up for another of Chef Mert’s classes!
Marcy K.
Chef Mert was wonderful! He arrived on time and made setup a breeze. My husband and I had a great time. You can tell Chef Mert is SO passionate about food and cooking and loves sharing his knowledge with others (and feeding others!).
Jeff P.
Mert was a pure delight and was the perfect balance of personality, quality food, and entertainment. I hosted a 12 person team dinner at my house and everyone sang praises for his food and the overall experience. Would definitely book again for any occasion.
Joel F.
This experience with Chef Mert was fantastic, I couldn't have asked for anything better. His communication was clear at every step, he was very accommodating and conscienscious of food allergies, and he was well-prepared to cover an incredible amount of topics in only a few hours. We all really appreciated his approachable teaching style and eagerness to involve us throughout the process, as hands-on learning only works if you get in there and get your hands dirty! We were especially interested in how his lessons would translate to using our Ooni pizza oven, so Chef Mert had us set up the oven and we cooked all the pizzas on the patio. He not only showed us great new techniques, but new and better ways to approach the things we've done a dozen times. We highly recommend this experience- Chef Mert is a wonderful teacher, has excellent stories to share, and his passion for good food cannot be beat!

Chef Mert was great. We had a lot of fun and learned lots too.
Mackenzie G.
Chef Merry was great! He talked us through every step and gave us helpful tips, plus made extra dough with us so that we can make more pizza and focaccia on our own in a few days. He was very friendly and interesting to chat with, and accommodated our request to use our new Ooni pizza oven (although a conventional oven would work just as well). Would highly recommend!
Jacques M.
What a fun experience and so simple and easy! Chef Mert was great to chat to and showed us many tips and tricks for a perfect result - which brings me to the pizza and focaccia we made! Absolutely delicious! The best homemade doughs ever! Looking forward to doing more classes with him going forward! Highly recommend this experience!
Melissa H.
This cooking class experience and Chef Mert were both 5 out of 5 stars! From the communication with me prior to the class, him showing up on time with all ingredients prepped and ready to go, and the deliciousness of the food... were all amazing. This was a surprise for my boyfriend that is an avid pizza maker but still had a few issues with his dough making and when Chef Mert walked him through the whole process and showed him a few tricks it was all worth the money. It's these types of experiences that last with you forever because it was interactive, it was fun, and it was something different than the regular date night ideas. We made a focaccia bread (I'm drooling thinking about it now), a chicken bbq pizza and also a veggie pizza, and a delicious apple pie. The recipe for the pie and the pan he used to make it were handed down to him from his grandmother. It was those little intricacies that made this night so special. I would definitely refer Chef Mert to all of my friends and family and my boyfriend even said he would hire him for our wedding catering lol. This was an amazing experience through and through... Thanks Chef Mert!
Christine H.
Chef Mert is WONDERFUL!!! He was on time, very organized, passionate, great sense of humor, and most of all excellent at what he does. He went above and beyond. He is very knowledgeable and has a lot of experience. Everything we made was delicious and made with joy and love. We had an amazing time. I recommend Chef Mert for any occasion and for different occasions. We will be contacting him again for different classes and for events. Thanks, Chef Mert, we loved our class :)
Cindy C.
The meal that we prepared was excellent. I would definitely be able to re-create this again and again. We learned valuable kitchen skills. The rustic apple crumble will become a family favourite for our home.
Sheryl B.
Chef Mert was amazing! He was very prepared and professional. Great personality, great food and great experience!!
Akaansha G.
Great experience creating many different types of dough. He offered good tips and a lot of food! I wish it was maybe a little more hands on but with the amount of food we were making I don't think there would have been enough time for all that. Overall a worthwhile experience.
Charity L.
Chef Mert provided my friend and I not only a plethora of food, but also many memories to remember the experience by. All the food was delicious and fun to make! There were definitely leftovers and plenty of opportunities Chef Mert gave us to be hands-on with the experience and truly take part in the cooking experience. Definitely recommend and would book again!
Brooke L.
Amazing experience, and LOTS of food. Really fun and interactive. Chef Mert was great!
Ray K.
We were very happy with Chef Mert. He is a true professional, very personable, and clearly has a passion for teaching and feeding others delicious meals. He answered our many questions and gave us bonus cooking tips, all while making high-quality Foccacia, pizza, and his unique apple crumble dessert. We give him the highest recommendation possible!
Cindil A.
We had a lot of fun with Chef Mert last night. He was polite, friendly, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond. He accommodated our dietary restrictions and even showed me how to sharpen my knives. The dough making instructions was quick but not hard to follow and we even have some dough proofing in the fridge to bake later. The food tasted great. We had a great variety of dishes and a delicious dessert. It was clear he used top quality ingredients and very professional methodology when cooking. Highly recommend him!
Debbie B.
We had a wonderful experience in our pizza, focaccia, and apple crumble class with Chef Mert. He was well prepared, friendly, helpful, creative, talented and an excellent teacher. Everything we made with him was beautiful and delicious.
Sarah H.
My husband and I had an incredible time learning how to make three different types of dough. Chef Mert is an amazing teacher and even knew how to quickly handle an oil spill left in the oven from a prior meal. Can’t wait to schedule another lesson but next time with friends to join us!
weston z.
Great chef! Very nice, professional, & informative! It was a great time and the 4 of us would definitely use Chef Mert again!
Justin W.
We had a great experience with Chef Mert! He came well-prepared and was a great teacher. Everything was delicious, especially the apple pie, and best of all, we have lots of leftovers and extra dough. We would definitely highly recommend this class and Chef Mert.
We had a wonderful experience with Chef Mert, and all of the food was delicious. He was very personable and made the evening a lot of fun for my family. His Apple Pie is also the best I've ever tasted. 10/10!

I surprised my boyfriend with a cooking class for Valentine's Day gift and he absolutely loved it. Chef Mert was very welcoming, on time, organized and prepared for us to take his class. His directions were very clear both with his location and his cooking steps. It was our first cooking class and we were a little nervous but he gave us so many information about cooking; for example how to cut properly and tips for a meal to taste much better. We absolutely enjoyed the class and my boyfriend loved it! Menu was great and the food we made was delicious and very filling! Definitely go in hungry :) Thank you Chef Mert!!!!

Chef Mert was extremely fun! Not only was he super hands on with each cooking step but he also made sure to answer questions along the way no matter how off topic they were. He taught us some tips and tricks we will be using moving forward while cooking at home. The pasta was so fresh and easy to make with simple ingredients which was the biggest win.
Jeffrey P.
Booked the class An Italian Date Night with Chef Mert in Los Angeles (Central LA)
This cooking class was phenomenal from start to finish. Chef Mert is wonderful in every sense. Every minute was a blast from the hands-on cooking to the eating…obviously… to the overall vibe, which was relaxed, fun, and perfectly paced. The food was incredible. It was restaurant quality, but somehow approachable enough that we left feeling confident and inspired rather than intimidated. In fact, we were so fired up afterward that we bought our own pasta-making machine and have since made the dish multiple times, including for friends and family… and it’s been a huge hit every single time. That’s the real mark of a great class: not just a great time, but skills and memories you keep using long after. Total success. Highly recommend for anyone whether its a date night, hanging with friends, or just a love of amazing Italian food. We’d do it again in a heartbeat!!

This Italian Date Night cooking class with Chef Mert was phenomenal from start to finish. Everything was thoughtfully planned, welcoming, and genuinely fun. Chef Mert is an excellent teacher. He explains each step clearly, keeps the class engaging, and creates an environment where you feel comfortable asking questions and getting hands-on without feeling rushed or overwhelmed. The food was outstanding. The crostini were packed with flavor, the homemade pappardelle carbonara was rich and perfectly balanced, and the tiramisu was the ideal way to end the night. You walk away not only having eaten an amazing meal, but actually feeling confident you could recreate it at home. This was a fantastic date night experience and easily one of the best cooking classes we’ve taken. Highly recommend

This was so much fun! It was an intimate cooking class with 5 of us at his place. The place was very spacious and had a great balcony. It would be amazing when the weather is warmer. Chef Mert was very patient and helpful and showed us all new tips and ideas on how to be better cooks. The pasta was really good and we had a variety of different crustinis, which were very tasteful. We were able to bring our own wine which made it super easy. I would say the only downside was it was kinda difficult to find, btu Chef Mert was super communicative and helpful to guiding us to his place.

This experience with Chef Mert was fantastic. When I booked this class to celebrate my husbands birthday, I wasn’t sure on what to expect but it was pleasant and enjoyable every step of the way. Chef Mert was very kind both through communications and in person and was extremely helpful re: directions and accommodations. His home was warm and inviting which added a nice touch to our private lesson. We learned a lot of great tips and are looking forward to putting them into use on our own. All of the food came out delicious as well! Thank you Chef Mert

Mert made my husband’s birthday unforgettable! He was not only an excellent cook delivering one of the best meals we’ve ever had in or out of a restaurant but was also a super interesting person who taught us so much about how and why he was cooking the way he was. If you’re at all interested in how the magic happens at restaurants this experience is far more than just a meal. More importantly he modified the menu to accommodate to any dietary restrictions and we couldn’t believe how good the gluten/low lactose alternatives were - most restaurants don’t have options this good for gluten/dairy free. Book Mert and you are guaranteed to have a time you won’t forget!

Chef Mert and his pasta class was amazing!! I attended his 3 course cooking class with 3 other friends and we all had a blast. While cooking, my friends and I each took turns implementing our newly learned techniques from chef Mert, like rolling out the dough and using the pasta machine. Chef Mert made us all feel very welcome and comfortable. We learned new things and recipes that we can try at home. Our next Cooking class with Chef Mert will be sushi!! Thanks Chef!

Booked the class Classic Cooking Techniques 101 with Chef Mert in Valley Glen
We had a wonderful birthday celebration dinner prepared and served by Chef Mert, who is easy-going, personable, and professional. I had asked Chef Mert to teach us knife skills which he prepared for by choosing a menu that required slicing, dicing, julienning and knife sharpening! We made a delicious vegetable soup (thickening secret = plain Greek yogurt with some flour mixed into it!) and a flavorful ratatouille with a pan-cooked chicken breast, cut up and tossed with the vegetables. Melt in your mouth goodness. Prior to that, Mert preheated the oven and prepared a whole chicken with plenty of garlic, pepper and salt, lemon and rosemary, rubbing the chicken liberally with olive oil. And while it cooked and we helped him prepare the soup, we opened and shared a bottle of wine. Mert cut up a panoply of fresh fruit, tossed in their own juices and refrigerated. While we enjoyed our soup (there was enough for seconds, and thirds on the next day), Mert plated the chicken and ratatouille. A perfectly roasted chicken, moist, tender and flavorful. We had enough left for 4 more meals. We were so happy and impressed that Mert cleaned up the dishes, counters and sink so well, and left our kitchen as clean and neat as he found it. He arrived shortly before 6pm to set up, and left a bit after 8:30. We helped ourselves to the fruit salad which tasted even better than expected, after half an hour in the refrigerator. The evening was great, as was Mert’s company. He is from Turkey and learned to cook from his grandmothers. Chef Mert has worked in first-rate kitchens but says he never went to cooking school. Shows you that good cooking is an innate talent. It would be fun to have him back to cook an authentic Turkish meal! Kudos to Chef Mert and CozyMeals. P.S. We gave Mert a tip in person.

My girlfriend and I signed up to attend an event with Chef Mert at his home for a pasta making course. It was a terrific experience. Chef Mert provided excellent directions ahead of time and clearly answered any questions we had about the upcoming event, which was very helpful. He was an extremely gracious host, and made us feel right at home. Being taught a new dish from a professional chef in person can be an intimidating experience, but Chef Mert made the techniques and recipes entertaining, and easy to follow. It was an evening that was both educational and relaxing, all around, plus, the food was excellent. We would be interested in taking another course with him in the future, and would certainly recommend him to any friends.

This was an amazing experience! Chef Mert is a master at his craft, and he helps you take a few steps closer to doing the same with cooking. His class is very well prepared, he had everything pre-measured and an agenda to make sure everything was seamless (he also gives a booklet with the instructions on how to cook the meals you cooked that day). He is extremely knowledgable and explains why things are done a certain way, gives some background on the history of the foods, and even goes into a little bit of science! He also gives recommendations for alternative ingredients you can use, and why he chose what the specific ingredients we cooked with. We are huge pasta fans but had never cooked or eaten pasta from scratch, and i never want to buy store bought again. The meal came out DELICIOUS and he made it very simple and approachable for us. The bruscheta crustini recipes were so simple but so fresh, they make for perfect healthy snacks. And the tiramisu was the perfect ending to the food coma. He is also very personable and gave us some background on where he started, and his entire journey to where he is today, and where he wants to go. Overall, i was extremely impressed with his professionalism and personability, along with his ability to make what is intimidating be very simple. We will definitely be taking another class and bringing friends along!

My partner and I booked “An Italian Date Night” with Chef Mert for our 8 year anniversary … and we’re so glad we did! Chef’s home was easy to get to and parking was no issue. He was warm and welcoming, and certainly wow’d us with his mixture of “teaching” and “dining.” My partner and I differ on taste palate and even experience level in the kitchen, so it was great when Chef accommodated us accordingly (example: knife and cutting skills that he focused on). Highlight of the meal for me was the delicious artichoke and feta. For my partner, it was being hands on and making our own pasta. Thanks to Chef Mert, we celebrated our anniversary in a unique and fun way that was better than just a regular dinner out. He even emailed us the recipes we worked on! Highly recommend booking!

Chef Mert shared modern techniques with his classic family recipes for a Mediterranean feast unlike any we have experienced.

This was our first Cozymeal experience and it was AWESOME! Chef Mert was fantastic and really found the perfect balance between making the private cooking class interactive yet instructional. We felt like we had enough time to relax yet felt involved enough to learn new technique. His place was clean, modern, and in a great location with parking across the street. I'd highly recommend Chef Mert and we want to take more cooking classes from him in the future. This made for a great birthday surprise for my fiancé- make sure to bring wine like we did from the nearby Trader Joe's!

Chef Mert was such a clear, kind communicator leading up to the dinner and made us feel so at ease while he cooked up legitimately some of the best food us east coasters have ever had. 10/10 would recommend for anyone looking for a charming, easeful, and tasty dining experience.

I had the pleasure of attending a pasta making and cooking class with Chef Mert last night, and I must say it was an incredible experience. From start to finish, Chef Mert's passion for pasta making and cooking was evident, and his expertise was truly impressive. Not only did Chef Mert teach us how to make delicious homemade pasta, but he also shared his secrets for creating the perfect sauce to pair with it. His guidance and attention to detail made the cooking process feel effortless and enjoyable, even for someone like me who is not a natural in the kitchen. What stood out most to me was Chef Mert's warm and welcoming demeanor. He created an atmosphere that was both educational and fun, and he was always available to answer any questions we had. Overall, I highly recommend Chef Mert's pasta making and cooking class to anyone who loves good food and wants to learn more about the art of pasta making. His passion, expertise, and welcoming personality make him an exceptional teacher, and I cannot wait to try out my new skills in my own kitchen.

Could not recommend Chef Mert and the Italian Date Night course enough! Chef Mert comes fully prepared with everything you could ever need. Additionally, he takes the times to not just show you how to cook your meal but other hands on skills (knife sharpening, etc) that really made the class feel like a class. The meal came out delicious and Chef Mert took great care of us.

Booked the class Four Courses of Elegant French Cuisine with Chef Mert in Torrance
Chef Mert was punctual and friendly. The meal he prepared for us was extraordinary, truly every course was special. Our only disappointment was in the service - every course was very rushed - we would have liked to savor each course for longer, but almost minutes after we had begun one course he was ready to bring the next one. We got the sense that he was in a great hurry. He also didn't really engage with us - he did of course introduce himself briefly, but didn't ask if there were any special occasions (it was my birthday). The food was undeniably delicious but the whole experience was perhaps 30 minutes. He left partially cleaned dishes in the sink before leaving. Again, the food was tremendous but we had hoped for a dining experience, not the fastest four course meal possible. Perhaps Chef Mert has outgrown Cozymeal and is on to bigger and better things. We didn't feel very important to him.

Chef Mert, thank you so sooo much for the beautiful buffet you created for my birthday. Everybody thought it was delicious and it made the whole event so much more special. I will highly recommend Chef Mert for any culinary experience, he is calm and professional and have everything under control which truly helped me on a stressful day of planning and hosting a big event!

If you are a fan of vegan cuisine, it was a menu you should try without hesitation for a second. Every single item in the menu was literally nutritious and tasty, especially the taste of amuse-bouche with vegan caviar is still on my palate. It was a pure pleasure to have a passionate and incredible chef like him. Thank you Mert!

This guy, man! It's been a long time since i've eaten such a delicious meal. He is really dominant on duty and so professional. In addition to a magnificent menu, all the evenings were very successful in taking care of us. It won't take me long to hire him again. Yes chef!

I hired Chef Mert for my dinner. Not sure how he made it happen to cook for so many people in my little Venice beach kitchen, his fine dining menu was incredible.
