Personal Chef Reviews

We absolutely love having Chef Ofir! His recipes are incredible, and every meal is delicious, fresh, and something our whole family looks forward to. He has made our lives so much easier by taking the stress out of meal planning, grocery shopping, and cooking.

What we appreciate most is how accommodating he is with our food allergies. He takes the time to understand our needs and makes sure every meal is safe without sacrificing flavor or variety. His attention to detail, creativity, and amazing recipes have truly made such a difference for our family. We couldn’t recommend him more!

Chef Ofir has been a big help in alleviating the stress of meal planning and prep, grocery shopping, and clean up. It has been a huge relief to not have to worry about meals during the busy week.

We just love working with Manny! He makes the most healthy, delicious, restaurant quality meals each week that help us reach our health goals. We save so much money because we no longer have to order take out, plus we get hours back each week to spend time with our children and doing family activities vs grocery shopping, cooking and cleaning. Friend that cooks is the best kept secret in Houston!

We hired friends that cook during the busy school year and sports season. Our cook Ofir helped prepare meals that the whole family enjoyed, even for our most picky eater. The service helped take the stress out of shopping and cooking during really busy weeks.

We have had such a great experience with Friend That Cooks, and Chef Louis has been incredible. I always look forward to coming home from work after he has been there, and seeing what meals we get to enjoy that week. It took him no time at all to learn our family’s preferences, and he regularly outdoes himself. We couldn’t be happier with the service!

I had the pleasure of trying Chef Marcos’ food while visiting a friend, and I was genuinely impressed. Everything was delicious, beautifully presented, and clearly made with quality ingredients. What stood out just as much was the care he puts into his service and how attentive he is to the family. You can tell Marcos takes pride in both his food and the experience he creates. It was a wonderful meal and an even better experience!

Chef Marcos has been great to have around Annette and her family. What stands out most is how much he genuinely cares about taking care of everyone. He’s professional, attentive, and always makes sure the family is well taken care of without making it feel over the top. And of course, the food speaks for itself. Everything I’ve had has been high quality, full of flavor, and presented extremely well. You can tell he takes a lot of pride in his work and pays attention to the details. Between the food, the service, and the way he takes care of the family, Chef Marcos is someone I’d definitely recommend.

Chef Louis has been working with our family for just over a year, and I honestly have a hard time picturing life without him! From the first bite of our first meal, we knew the investment would be well worth it. Everything is so flavorful and fresh, and we regularly say, “Ooo, no, this is my new favorite meal he’s made!” 90% of the time, we have him make whatever he’s inspired to make, and we know we’re going to love it! But he’s also always happy to repeat our favorites when requested. We’re wasting considerably less food, our kids are trying new things, and our lives absolutely feel more balanced with the time and mental energy we save. As a bonus, Chef Louis is just the most easygoing, respectful, and fun person to have around each week!

What really stands out about Chef Marcos is that he goes far beyond simply preparing an incredible meal. He genuinely cares about taking care of Annette and her family. His level of service, attention to detail, and commitment to making everyone feel comfortable and well taken care of is truly exceptional. Every meal feels thoughtfully planned and beautifully executed, from the quality and freshness of the ingredients to the presentation of each dish. You can tell that he takes great pride in what he does, but more importantly, he takes pride in creating a wonderful experience for the people he’s cooking for. The combination of outstanding food, beautiful presentation, and personal, attentive service makes Chef Marcos truly special. Annette’s family is definitely in great hands with him!

Chef Louis is an incredible chef! I always look forward to his cooking when I visit my sister. When she asks what I want him to prepare, my reply is "anything" because it is always delicious. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for great meals!
