What People Are Saying

“Chef Dean was so easy to work with for my birthday dinner. He and his wife responded to all my messages immediately. They helped me design the perfect menu for my group. They showed up on time, served the best, most elegant dinner and cleaned up the kitchen afterwards. Everything was amazing but the crab cakes and the creme burlee was my favorite! Would 100% use him again for another party. Thank you Chef Dean for make my 50th so special.”

“Chef Dean was excellent! I booked him for a bachelorette party and we have a LOT of allergies between us all and he was able to accommodate everyone’s. He sent over some sample menus and then I was able to pick and choose items to create one for our event. He was super friendly and responsive and we all had a blast chatting with him while he was cooking and the food was really good despite a lot of ingredients that weren’t able to be added. I would definitely recommend him!”

“I hired Chef Dean for our daughter's bachelorette party of 13 young ladies. They raved about the fresh, light mediterranean dinner and his overall professionalism. It was very easy to arrange this across country. I would highly recommend him!”

“Chef Dean is absolutely amazing! He recently cooked for my fiancé and buddies for a bachelor party and they would not stop talking about how much they loved him and how delicious the food was. He responded very quickly to my message and made everything extremely easy. He gave us menu options to choose from after hearing what the groom would want to eat. He showed up on time and made an amazing dinner! My fiancé also said he was just an overall great time to have in the house. We highly recommend Chef Dean and if we are ever back in Scottsdale would hire him again in a heart beat. Thank you!!!”

“Chef Dean and his sous chef were absolutely amazing! The menu that I requested was for Easy Italian themed- comprised of truffle an arugula salad to start (delicious), mushroom risotto (heavenly), Italian meatballs, everything seasoning flavored roasted eggplant (a massive hit), roasted asparagus, and a berry cheesecake. Not only were they so prompt in their timing, but all of the dishes were prepped and ready to go with minimal input by our group- they were so self sufficient, prepared, and TALENTED. Everyone in our group absolutely LOVED Chef Dean’s culinary skills and we’ll 1000% request his services again when we’re in Scottsdale next! Thank you!”
