We celebrated our 20th Anniversary and Chef Don and his crew were the best part of the celebration! No words or photos do our experience justice. From the moment we had our first phone call meeting, to the minute he stepped into our home, to the moment he left... it was all perfect!! The experience, the set up, the service, the ambiance they created, the personal feeling we received from Chef Don and his crew, it was beyond our expectations! The menu was spot on and delicious (delicious doesn't even seem like enough to describe it.) We cannot wait to have him back in our kitchen!

Chef Don was incredibly proactive in curating a menu. We needed vegan options, catered to multiple allergies and Chef planned six amazing meals. Chef came on time with fresh, delicious food. He explained the provenance of the cuisine and beverages. The dishes were beautifully prepared and absolutely delicious! We had multiple courses every night and my family fought over the leftovers the next day. The kitchen was left spotless each night and by the end of the week, Chef felt like a dear friend. Would HIGHLY recommend. GREAT EXPERIENCE!!

Chef Don exceeded my expectations. He was a host as much as a chef, and his team created an ambiance in our home that was far above what I had envisioned. He's clearly a member of the food and beverage community on the central Coast and it shows, both in his meal and his storytelling. 5/5, would recommend to anyone.

Chef Don and wife Wendee were absolutely wonderful to work with! Engaging, friendly, and professional. This was our first time hiring a chef and they made the whole process seamless and comfortable — from the initial call to get a feel for us and our group, to being onsite and present with out guests. Everyone enjoyed their company in addition to the food and fabulous display. It was a very special memory, and they made the whole thing just perfect. Thank you!

We hired Chef Don for a bachelorette party and it was the highlight of our trip! Chef Don was so kind and attentive and made every one of us feel so special. The food and drinks were beyond delicious and the presentation was impeccable! We had the best time and an amazing meal. I highly recommend Chef Don for anyone who wants a chef that not only puts effort into the food but to connecting with his guests. We ended the night very full and satisfied and feeling like he was part of our family.

We were looking for a private chef in Paso Robles and found Chef Don. His team, food, drink and hospitality blew our minds.
