My wife and our friends were treated to an exceptional birthday dinner by Chef John, who surpassed our expectations. We were devastated to learn of his impending retirement, especially since we recently discovered him. Not only does he carry out his work with excellence, but he even took the time to tidy up before his departure. Words cannot express how thrilled we were with the entire experience!

Our family's birthday dinner, serving six people, was planned, cooked, served, and cleaned up excellently by John and his team. He assisted me in selecting all of my wife's preferred cuisines and curated a flawless menu. Recommending John to our acquaintances and colleagues goes without saying, given their impeccable service in leaving our kitchen spotless!

Collaborating with Chef John, we devised a four-course dinner menu for a group of ten individuals. John's affability and effective communication fostered trouble-free planning. He adeptly navigated the constraints of several dietary requirements and fabricated a menu bespoke to our party. Arriving punctually, John and his son delivered superb service in outfitting, preparing, serving, and clearing up. All in all, it was an exceptional experience!

Chef John and his team exceeded our expectations. We enlisted their services for a private dinner and were blown away by the delicious multi-course menu that garnered rave reviews.
The phyllo-wrapped scallops with parmesan cream melted in our mouths, and the grilled shrimp cocktail with fresh peaches and herbs from Chef John's garden was a standout.
It was clear that Chef John is passionate about using the finest ingredients in his dishes. He consulted with us on potential menu changes to ensure the seasonal offerings were at their peak, a level of care that was greatly appreciated.
Furthermore, his team was punctual and maintained a clean and professional work ethic. Communication with Chef John and his team was fast and easy, and Chef John's friendly and easygoing demeanor added to the overall experience.
Overall, we highly recommend John Fravel Private Chef & Catering for your next special event. The level of professionalism and care for the quality of the food is unmatched, and the experience is second to none.
