Deniz was FANTASTIC! We hired him for a “Girls’ Trip”. He came to our AirB&B, prepared the table, presented the meal beautifully and cleaned up after himself when he was done. He does take a bit to answer messages though. But overall, we had an awesome dinner.

This was an unforgettable dining experience. chef Deniz created an exceptional menu that felt both creative and indulgent. Every dish was perfectly executed, and the service was attentive without being intrusive. It made our special occasion feel truly elevated. The guests loved king prawns , raspberry dessert. Worth noting he was very flexible and went extra mile accommodating/cooking again for few guests who were late. He also responded patiently to every food question..
Deniz was very easy and wonderful to work with! Made the birthday dinner of 13 very special with great food, and the best part was everything was clean and tidy afterwards with none of our effort!
We hired chef Deniz for a bachelorette event in Sebastopol. He did an amazing job especially with the bride’s specific dietary restrictions: gluten, dairy, and meat-free. 10/10 would hire chef again!
Chef Deniz cooked for my birthday dinner in Napa. Everything was delectable, and everyone enjoyed their meal. He was even able to cook delicious vegetarian options for the vegetarians in our party. I would hire him again and highly recommend him.
Hired Chef Deniz to cook for a surprised 70th birthday party at home for 10 adults and 5 children and couldn’t be happier. Chef was very professional and willing to work through the menu to accommodate a children menu in addition to the adult menu. Food was delicious and everyone was very pleased and impressed. Thank you Chef for the great meal!
This was an amazing experience- Chef Deniz arrived on time - was so professional- went about his work and served us an AMAZING meal - the tenderloin was perfect - so tender and cooked just right/ all dishes delicious!!!! I wish I could have him all the time !!! He is a 5 Star Chef!
Second time booking chef Deniz. Food is great and so is he.
Chef Deniz was wonderful. Him and his partner catered to 18 girls and did a great job considering I didn’t give him a lot to work with. He was professional and went beyond expectations. He left the kitchen so clean after. The entire process was so easy. I’d recommend him to my friends
Chef Deniz was so beyond our expectations! Not only was the food so incredibly delicious - he was a delight to spend the evening with. He was very professional and also let the kitchen cleaner then he found it! It was effortless from our end which is exactly what we were looking for! He even jumped in and took photos of the group for us when he saw us struggling with the self timer. 10/10 recommend to anyone!!
