Chef Esh-Marie provided an extraordinary experience my girlfriend and I on our special occasion. From the joyous conversations to the amazing food, Chef Esh-Marie exceeded any expectations I had. Chef Esh-Marie was courteous, thoughtful, and easy going. I would book Chef Esh-Marie again, and I plan to for my next special occasion.

Had an office party of 11 Saturday night. Chef arrived exactly on time however appetizer was not served at 7:15 as promised, came at 7:45. Didn’t get main entree until 9:15. Chef had told me she would be bringing a sous chef, but she came alone. Guest had told help her clear plates. When she left, the flowers she brought were on the kitchen counter next to the vase, she never got them to our dining table. Lobster was good, Caesar salad and steak just mediocre. Chef was quite pleasant but could not serve us efficiently, disappointed evening especially at $135 per person, not including tip.

Chef Esh-Marie was amazing! She exceeded our private chef expectations. Chef came early and stayed late, the dinner was delicious and she was very accommodating. She left the kitchen cleaner than it was when she arrived and was super friendly and fun to talk to. Thank you Chef!

Oh my Goodness! We had the most awesome experience with Chef Esh-Marie. Our expectations were met a thousand times over. My family and friends were impressed by the presentation of each and every course. Chest Esh-Marie was on time and very professional. The charcuterie board was especially exquisite. We loved the portions and the quality of our meal. We thought the chef was extremely pleasant and would recommend her to everyone. She made this a very special 60th birthday celebration for my brother.

Esh- Marie put together a fantastic meal for my dad's 70th birthday. She was able to adjust the menu to fit our needs, came on time and left everything spotless. She was a joy to have at our house and really made us feel comfortable during the dinner. I wasn't sure what to expect this being the first time we've used a private chef for an event, but I would highly recommend Esh-Marie for your next dinner party.
