We reserved this experience as a gift for my parents (celebrating their 50th anniversary), and it could not have gone better! They absolutely loved it! They said the food was delicious, and Josh was incredibly talented, personable, and fun to talk to! I would definitely recommend Cozymeal and Chef Joshua Elias to anyone that asks.

Booked the menu Exquisite Seafood Soirée with Chef Joshua Elias in Arvada
Chef Joshua was SUCH a pleasure to have in our home. The night flew by via an onslaught of excellent food and fun conversation. Chef shared cooking tips and tricks (in addition to what we were making) and entertained us with many stories of his adventures in the field. The food itself was outstanding - we could tell the ingredients were fresh, the recipes were unique and everything was truly made with love. I would recommend Chef Joshua to anyone interested in this type of experience.
Booked the menu Elevated Plant-Based Cuisine with Chef Joshua Elias in Boulder
We had a totally plant based meal; an interesting olive tapenade over sourdough bread, delicious soup, roasted vegetables over mashed celeriac, an a coconut creme with red plums and pistachios. I learned many things about how to bring out flavors and how to mix flavors. There were four of us and we all had an outstanding time. Chef Joshua was a brilliant, kind and interesting teacher.

The cooking class was great! My wife and I really enjoyed learning from Chef Joshua about how to make pasta. We were curious students of the game and he answered all of our questions about the pasta-making experience.

There was a mixup with scheduling. My daughter set up a lesson for 1/5/24 and gave it to me for Christmas. When I tried to redeem the gift card, I couldn’t find the scheduled lesson. I did online chat and explained I was to have chef Elias on 1/5 at 6pm. They sent me a link and I confirmed appointment but I didn’t notice that they changed the date. He showed up on 12/29 when I was out of town. My wife explained that it was supposed to be 1/5 and he said no problem, I will return next week. Except he did not show. My daughter paid $200 for nothing. I have to pay again to get lesson. I am very disappointed and would never recommend this service to anyone!!!
Reviews Chef Joshua Elias received outside of Cozymeal
The food is incredible, I’ve been telling everyone how much easier it’s made my day to day life and how the variety has definitely made me enjoy eating again. The meatballs are incredible! And that bacon cooked Kale is insanely delicious!
The coconut shrimp was delicious—can I get more of that?! Also really liked the almonds paired with the salmon! So good!
Josh! The meals are great. I like the consistency and the minimal aspect of it. The fajitas are great! they are flavorful and delicious.
Hey Joshua, I was totally impressed by your culinary skills at our holiday team lunch at Andy and Catherine Burgess’s house last week. Great job man!
