"I have been watching the menus and posts from The Unseen Chef for a long while and finally jumped on the bandwagon when he posted a Cuban inspired meal for this week's offerings. I cook and bake daily so, when I have the opportunity to not cook dinner for six, I want it to be worthwhile. Cuban is a family favorite and when he said Mojo and plantains, I ordered immediately. We received generous portions of pork, plantains, and rice for six FOR LESS THAN I SPENT BUYING SANDWICHES FROM A LOCAL CHAIN THIS PAST WEEKEND. I tried it the minute I picked it up and it's amazing, flavorful, and truly worth the experience. Ordering from the website is easy, pickup is easy as well, and they have gained a repeat customer based on quality and price. The choice between having a chef prepared meal in my home or going out—it's easy for me. I will take quality ingredients and expert prep without leaving my house over a restaurant experience. This is a night off that's stress free. I'll keep doing it."

"We had salad with chicken, salmon patties and fruit for dinner. It’s probably the best meal I’ve had at home in as long as I can remember. I loved the pickles, it reminded me of my trip to India. I’ve never had fresh figs before. I had literally tried to figure out where to get fresh figs last week. It’s going to be a good week. Thanks."

Everything was fresh, delicious, and beautifully presented, with a great variety of options that everyone enjoyed.

Great service - Chef John has been very flexible with work and life schedules. We are super thankful for the Unseen Chef!"

"I had a knife skills class. The Unseen Chef came to my house and brought all of the chef and food supplies which I greatly appreciated. He is kind and patient and never made me feel embarrassed about my skills. If you are interested in 1:1 or group classes, I highly recommend The Unseen Chef!"

"This is hands down the best meal prep service I’ve ever had. The meals are high-quality, restaurant-style dishes made fresh just for you. Chef John takes the time at the beginning to ask about your likes, dislikes, and any dietary needs."

"Love that the meals are fresh and really brings diversity that a lot of meal prep doesn't. Also had Chef John do some private events for me and my friends and I couldn't be happier."

"I’m just finishing one of the 6 dinners John prepares for me each week. I’m so happy I’ve signed up with him! His experience as a professional chef shows in every bite I take. The meals he prepares are flavorful, just the right balance of flavor and texture. The presentation of each meal is appetizing and so appealing! He has given me the gift of more time in my life."

"John made amazing and creative crepes for us for the holidays. It's so hard to find good crepes here, and I thought it was cool that these ones were made with local ingredients."
