Chef Jonathan (and Rachel) provided an excellent bite size appetizer spread for our New Year's Eve party. He also was flexible with the menu choices to meet our budget. All the guests loved the items we selected, especially the ceveichi! Would definitely use them again.

Called Jonathon 5 days before my wife's surprise birthday looking for help...he was awesome in coordinating the menu and getting everything organized. Then the food! I was looking for a heavy appetizer menu and he delivered. The poke, carpaccio, salmon and salads were amazing...I asked him to do a potato dish for my wife and she was super happy with the stuffed potato skins he made! All raved about the food and presentation.

We had Chef Barone cook for a party of 15 for our 20th anniversary: it was fantastic! Communication with him prior to the party was seamless and he was very accommodating to our wishes. He showed up on time with his staff and all that was needed for a feast. The food was absolutely delicious; The steaks were tender and perfectly cooked, the scallops were excellent, the chocolate cake heavenly. Our guests were raving about the food. Johnathan and his staff were professionals, friendly but not imposing. Highly recommended.

Chef Jon is so passionate and thoughtful about creating the best culinary experience for you and making the best memories you'd like to create. We were lucky to have Chef Jon help my 40th birthday party at home in Palos Verdes. We had 30 guests (including 8 kids) and Chef Jon designed a special birthday menu my husband and I liked. A few days before the party, Chef Job called me and offered some special dishes as a courtesy to make my party extra special. On the party day, he and his team showed up at my house early enough and stayed late to ensure an effortless experience for me and my guests. We loved the food, the creativity, and the level of care and attention to detail. Our guests were impressed by it and enjoyed the party. I would highly recommend him to anyone who's looking for an elevated culinary team to make your day more memorable!
