Feedback from verified bookings on third-party private chef platforms.
Wow what an amazing dinner, Marco (chef) & Molly (waitress) delivered a 5 star dinner service. We couldn’t have asked for a better introduction to Take a Chef, my wife and I have pretty much ate at all the Michelin starred restaurants in Birmingham and more further a field and this is comparable and in some cases exceed some of those restaurants.

Marco was amazing. He gave us such a personal service, it was a lovely experience. His communication was great throughout. We hired him for a hen night for my sister in law and we all loved the food, the portions were really generous. We were spoilt for choice with the menu and we wish we could have ordered everything! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Marco to anyone. Thank you so much Marco!

Incredible isn’t a strong enough word to describe Marco. We had planned a meal for our parents 50th Wedding Anniversary and wanted something that suited their tastes, and Marco delivered that and more. He was professional, friendly and courteous. His waitress Molly was also amazing and helped make the experience perfect. The food was exquisite, cooked to perfection and presented beautifully.
