Private chef in Napa Valley — common questions

Do you have private chefs in Napa Valley yet?

We are now taking requests in Napa Valley. Send yours with your dates, group size and budget, and we match you personally with a professional private chef who can cook at your rental. You only pay once you have picked a menu you like, so there is no risk in asking.

Can the chef pair the menu with our wines?

Yes. List the bottles in your notes and the chef builds courses around them.

Can we book a chef for a wedding weekend in Napa?

Yes. Welcome dinners and rehearsal dinners can both be requested.

How much does a private chef cost in Napa Valley?

You set the budget on the request form, per person or for the whole group, and chefs send menus built to fit it. Price depends on group size, the number of courses and the style of service, and family-style dinners cost less per head than plated ones. Taxes and fees are shown before you pay.

Does the chef clean up afterwards?

Yes. Shopping, prep, cooking, serving and full kitchen cleanup are all included, so the kitchen is left as the chef found it. That matters in a rental where you are on the hook for a cleaning deposit.
