  • I cannot thank Chef Kisha enough! While I’d been a guest at friends who had arranged a chef to come in and prepare a meal, this was our first time. I could not have made a better choice than Kisha to celebrate my husband’s milestone birthday! The process of going through proposals and making decisions for me was a bit stressful, but once I’d selected Chef Kisha and spoke with her, I was instantly at ease. That did not change even when traffic delayed her arrival, and her sous chef was not available – Kisha was calm throughout, and made herself right at home in my kitchen. I opted to have the appetizers served family-style as our guests mingled and relaxed, and they were a meal all by themselves. When we sat down to dinner and the plated entrees were served, everyone was thrilled. The presentation was beautiful, and beef and chicken entrees were both a big hit. She had no problem accommodating one guest with gluten sensitivities. The dessert was perfect and also gorgeous. And as promised, the kitchen was spotless when Kisha packed up to leave. I recommend Chef Kisha for her skill, professionalism, and cheerful attitude. Dinner was a bit later than planned, but it really did work out great.

  • Chef Kisha was incredible. We had the pleasure of hosting Chef Kisha for a dinner in our home, and it was an extraordinary culinary experience from start to finish. Not only was the food absolutely amazing, but Chef Kisha also went above and beyond to accommodate our allergies and dietary restrictions, ensuring that every guest could fully enjoy the meal without any concerns.

    What truly impressed us was Chef Kisha's professionalism and communication. From the initial planning stages to the final execution, she maintained clear and prompt communication, making the entire process seamless. Even when we had to change the date, she was flexible and accommodating, making sure everything still fell into place perfectly.

    As for the meal itself, every dish was a masterpiece. From the appetizers to the dessert, every course was a delight, leaving us completely satisfied and thoroughly impressed.

    Overall, we cannot recommend Chef Kisha highly enough. If you're looking for a talented chef who not only creates exceptional dishes but also provides top-notch service and attention to detail, look no further. Thank you, Chef Kisha, for an unforgettable evening.

  • We worked with Kisha for a party of 6, celebrating a late birthday and Galentine’s Day. Kisha was excellent and very accommodating to all dietary restrictions! She cooked a delicious farm-to-table 3-course meal for our group. My favorite dish was by far her chocolate raspberry tart - which she was able to make gluten and dairy free! Kisha showed up right on time, and was extremely communicative leading up to and during the dinner. Would highly recommend and I definitely plan to work with her in the future!

  • Chef Kisha knocked it out of the park, despite some tricky food restrictions.
    Instead of a choice of fillet or fish, I asked for surf and turf. She adapted the menu without changing the price and she made the best version of fillet and lobster that I’ve have ever had.
    The flavors and presentation were on par with a five star restaurant. My guests were absolutely delighted.
    Finally, she has a very outgoing and engaging personality which adds tremendously to the whole experience.

  • Chef Kisha was awesome and made our event very special. The meal was top notch, tasty and artfully plated. From start to finish Chef Kisha was professional, accommodating and kind when presented with the company of my daughter’s Standard Poodle that I am sure She wasn’t expecting.

  • Chef Kisha was awesome from start to completion. She ensured the menu was to my liking and asked if I needed any substitutions. I had one last minute change and Chef Kisha adapted very professionally. On the day of the event, my family was late, but Chef Kisha was on time as scheduled. The meal was fantastic! I knew it was going to be good, but WOW!!! Not only did she serve a great meal, she also washed the dishes...which threw me for a loop. Chef Kisha left business cards and I will definitely be giving them out to friends.

  • Chef Kisha came and prepared dinner for my 50th Birthday Dinner Party. This all came together a bit last minute because of COVID. Kisha provided a wonderful proposal and was open to adjusting it based on my feedback. She and her mom (loved watching them work together) arrived on time and worked quickly. Our first course was ready at 7:30 as planned. Every bite of all 4 courses was delicious. Kisha and her mom were delightful, and they left my kitchen cleaner than it was when they arrived. I’ll definitely use her again!

  • The first course was delicious, but easy to fall down from the bread.
    The second course was perfect.
    The third course, seared sermon was good, but the root of asparagus was solid.
    The vegan chocolate cake was excellent.
    Overall, the four course was very delicious and satisfactory.
    Thank you very much and I would like to ask Kisha again next time.

  • We had a wonderful culinary experience. Chef Kisha and her team provided a 7-course meal with wine pairings that exceeded all of our expectations. While mingling with our guests we were provided with a wonderful display of appetizers. Upon sitting down to dinner we were met with a beautifully presented scallop creation as course two, followed by crushed tomato soup, lobster ravioli, pallet cleanser, and entree of salmon and filet mignon. Every course was fabulous and the entree portions more than ample for us and our guests. The dessert was a delightful berry and chocolate creation that left our pallets well satisfied. The timing between courses was also excellent as we were not rushed and looked forward to the next course. This was a wonderful experience and we look forward to doing it again. Thank you ... this was money well spent. What a great service!

  • The dinning experience could not have been any better. I was able to speak with Chef Kisha a few days before the dinner and we worked through all of the details. On the day of the event Chef Kisha ensured to communicate updates regularly. She arrived with everything she needed to prepare what turned out to be one of the best meals I have ever experienced. She plated the meals very well and the presentations were excellent.
