What Our Clients Say

Real experiences from real dinner tables across LA.

We booked Chef Rohan for our anniversary and it was the best dining experience we've ever had — and we didn't even leave the house. The tasting menu was incredible, and he left the kitchen cleaner than he found it.

Anniversary Dinner · Santa Monica

Used Chef's Pick for a team dinner with 12 people. Got matched with Chef Sofia — her handmade pasta was unreal. Half the team has already asked me to book again. The whole process took 5 minutes.

Team Dinner · Venice

I've used three different private chef platforms. Le Chef Privé is the only one where I felt like the chef actually cared about MY event, not just getting through a booking. The portal kept me informed every step of the way.

Birthday Party · Brentwood

Chef Marcus did a backyard BBQ for 20 people and it was the highlight of the summer. Brisket that rivaled any spot in Texas. Our neighbors are still talking about it.

We do weekly meal prep through Le Chef Privé now. Chef Sofia comes every Sunday, preps the whole week. It's replaced our Uber Eats habit entirely — healthier, cheaper per meal, and actually delicious.

Booked Chef James for an omakase night with 6 guests. He brought a portable sushi station and sourced fish from the Santa Monica market that morning. Michelin-level experience in my dining room. Worth every penny.
