What a spectacular and memorable evening! I had read the previous reviews for Melissa and was pretty impressed. She shared the menu up front with me which was spot on with what I wanted for a very special birthday celebration. She showed up on time, was very engaging and we had a delightful dinner. Food was very innovative and tremendously tasty. We all enjoyed every bite and were excited to have some leftovers as well. Melissa and Emily worked hard preparing our meal and left the kitchen immaculate. They were kind enough to box up all the leftovers for us as requested. I am so happy that Melissa was our chef and I would recommend her to anyone and everyone.

Chef Melissa is a delight- in person, and for the impeccable quality of her food and presentation! We had a group of 13, and she customized a menu that everyone was excited about- and then completely exceeded expectations. She is clearly a pro, arrived and got right to work quietly preparing an elegant feast for us, all plated beautifully-- though it was so delicious we devoured it all without dallying to compliment how lovely it all was. Quotes heard during dinner: "I don't even like beets and I would eat another whole plate of that appetizer!" "I could drink an entire vat of that soup." "This pasta is so fresh, best ever!". Highly recommend Melissa, I would (and probably will) hire her again in a heartbeat.

Chef Melissa was incredible from start to finish! She created a wonderful menu that everyone enjoyed. I can’t stress enough how delicious everything was. She did an excellent job making last minute adjustments that ended up coming up. My family and I cannot thank her enough! I know the guest of honor was especially excited as there were some leftovers (that she later hid from the rest of the family). We hope to work with Chef Melissa again in the future!

Chef Melissa provided us with an absolutely unforgettable dining experience at our Airbnb. She prepared a stunning six-course meal for 18 people, and every single dish was crafted with care, creativity, and the freshest ingredients straight from her garden. Every dish was so well-balanced, fresh, and beautifully plated. Melissa’s attention to detail and passion for her craft truly shined. Not only was the food phenomenal, but her service was impeccable. After the meal, she left the kitchen spotless, which was the cherry on top of an already perfect evening. Melissa is also incredibly personable, warm, and professional. She made the entire evening feel special and effortless. We would absolutely love to have her cook for us again and can’t recommend her enough for anyone looking to elevate their event or celebration.

I cannot give enough praise to Chef Melissa. She was so kind and engaging and she wow’d us with every dish. The flavor was incredible as was the presentation. We unanimously agreed it was the best and most beautiful meal we’ve ever had. And they cleaned everything up! We didn’t have to do a thing. She is incredibly talented and a lovely person!
