We were celebrating our 35th anniversary, and we were so excited to have a private chef for our dinner. However, our experience was not that great. First, communication is difficult and was only by email. The night of our dinner, they said they would be there an hour before we wanted to have dinner to allow for prepping and setup, but showed up 45 min late. I tried calling, texting and could only email and wait for a response. The two chefs that finally came, were friendly but not very interactive. I wished they would have explained more about each course. They were very quiet and didn’t seem like they wanted to talk. Our first course were meatballs and those were delicious. Our crew loved those. We had lobster bisque for our second course, and was a little different than a traditional lobster bisque. It was good but not great. Our dinner was lamb shank, braised vegetables and a celery purée. Honestly, the way it was plated did not look appealing. The lamb shank was good, but the celery purée, which non of us liked was cold. At first I thought it was just my plate but it was supposed to be chilled. The braised vegetable was not to my liking and also cold. They tasted sour and nobody liked them either. Our dessert was bananas foster and I think when it came to dessert we all ate that since we didn’t like our dinner. I wish they would communicate better either via text or call. Not sure if they chefs were experienced but I think it’s nice if they could talk about what they are making. Also I tried to reach out about wine, and got no answer. Overall, I was disappointed in our whole meal.

Shaun and Tyler catered my wedding for roughly 90 people. I was blown away by their level of quality and attention to detail, especially for the price they charged. Their cost was comparable to other vendors which seemed to have a much lower level of quality. Both these guys are also incredible individuals and we’re a pleasure to work with. Throughout the entire process they were highly communicative and willing to work with all requests I threw at them. I cannot recommend them enough and all of my guests kept telling me how great the food was! Thank you Shaun and Tyler for helping to make my wedding such a success!

OH MY GOSH! The food was AMAZING!!I planned an elopement at Glacier National Park and The Chef Guys delivered!! We had a four course meal at a campsite; bison tenderloin meatballs and bruschetta, seasonal harvest salad, bison tenderloin served with broccolini and whipped potatoes, and pie. We also ordered kids meals and vendor meals. And I'm almost certain every single plate was cleared -- it was that delicious.Since we were eating at a campsite, The Chef Guys had to bring all their own stuff to cook with. They also made personalized menus, dish/flatware and napkins. They were also super understanding when we were running late due to a bad accident that stopped traffic for a bit.If you're questioning hiring a private chef for your wedding, vacation, or just because then rest assured because this was money well spent! Can't wait to be back in Montana and use them again!

Get the lobster bisque! Fresh made and to die for. Great set of guys and left the place spotless.

Shaun's cooking is fantastic - so clean and nourishing. He accommodated all our food preferences with ease. His sauces, dressings and dips were next level. This guy is the real deal, highly recommend.

Chef Shaun was great to work with and made our vision for our daughter’s wedding come to life. It was great to meet him and Chef Tom in person. The food and service were great! Highly recommend The Chef Guys!

Cannot recommend the Chef Guys enough (Chef Tyler). We had dinner for 6 people at our rented cabin and it was fantastic from start to finish. Service was excellent and the only thing better was the food (we selected the 4 course meal). Everything was truly delicious and beyond our expectations (and no dishes to clean up at the end either). We would use them again without a doubt next time we are in the area.

We had chef rafer. He was amazing in every way. We had the best time. We loved chatting and having a intimate 2 party dinner with the chef cooking. We were on vacation and he was able to cook in our air bnb that had a rather off stove. We had the beef Wellington. It was amazing can’t wait to come back!

We hired the Chef Guys for my brother’s bachelor party (breakfasts, a few bagged lunches/sandwiches, and a dinner). These guys absolutely crushed it and we’re unbelievably easy to work with. Best decision of the trip, hands down.

We had a special birthday party at a rental house last night. The Chefs were fun without being obtrusive into the party. The food was outstanding. They left the kitchen spotless and everyone happy. With two small children it made it a relaxing evening, with great food.

Sarah Broughton

Top rate experience from start to finish. Chef Erik and Chef Tim made the planning easy, and special to our group; the communication and expectations were professional and efficient; the experience was fun and easy for us all. They treated us all, even the kids, with the absolute best service. We will definitely hire them next time we are in town.

My wife and I had The Chef Guys cater just the two of us the night of our wedding. I couldn’t be more impressed! We had Chef Tom and he was professional, social, and definitely a talented cook! If you’re looking for a great experience and meal in the comfort of your home, Airbnb, or wherever, request Chef Tom and you will not be disappointed.
