    What a FANTASTIC experience. If you are looking for a private dining or catering experience you don’t need to look any further. Joe and Kim planned the perfect night for my friends and I…and executed it flawlessly. Not only are they really cool people…they’re exceptionally talented. I can’t wait to plan my next event with them.
  • Avatar Jessica Steinberg ★★★★★ 2 weeks ago
    Kim and Joe were incredible and the whole experience was just fantastic. Highly recommend them for private dining experience. This was for a 50th birthday girls trip in Florida!
  • Avatar Meghan Wojewodka ★★★★★ 2 weeks ago

  • Avatar Amie Peterson ★★★★★ a month ago

  • Avatar Donna DelVecchio ★★★★★ a month ago
    What was supposed to be a family dinner for 6 people to celebrate my husband’s 60th birthday turned into an intimate dinner for 2 instead and Chef Joe was soooo accommodating when I had to change the amount of people! He worked with me to even change the menu! Four hours before he was supposed to come to our vacation villa in Disneyworld, I had to change the time and he was so nice about it! He showed up exactly on time, got right to work and made us feel like old friends that was there to make our celebration perfect and that it was! The food he prepared was incredible and he went out of his way to make the evening memorable! My husband said it was the best birthday he’s EVER had and having Joe there was an exceptional surprise! (I think the fact that we didn’t have to leave our villa was just a bonus!!) I can’t wait until my kids 31,29 & 26 can go with us on vacation next year because I am DEFINITELY calling Chef Joe again so that they can experience the magical evening and extraordinary cuisine that my husband and I were so fortunate enough to have! I NEVER write reviews but people need to know about the amazing time that Chef Joe gave to us! To say that it was beyond fantastic would simply be an understatement! So… if anyone out there in Googleland is looking for something different to do instead of going out to some restaurant to celebrate ANY occasion, I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend that you trust Chef Joe to make your celebration one that NO ONE will ever forget!!! EVER!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you, Joe!!!
  • Avatar Andrew Eureka ★★★★★ a month ago
    Wow! We had such an incredible experience with Chef Joe throughout the entire process. I reached out to Chef looking to do something special for my wife’s 40th birthday. We decided on a private event held at our personal home. After a seamless brainstorming session, we decided on an elegant 4-course menu. Chef made this process so easy but really took into consideration preferences but also made some great recommendations. Days before the event I added a couple more people to the invite and added a 5th course, a meat and cheese spread. Chef fulfilled this request with zero hesitation. The night of the event, Chef and his lovely sous chef prepared the most beautiful and tasty meal for our party of 12. The food was delicious, hot, and timed perfectly. Never did we feel rushed as our group enjoyed our wine and conversation. Chef read the room and slowed the meal. Hands down, one of the best events we have been apart of. I would most definitely use them again in the future and recommend them to family, friends, or anyone else looking for a one-of-a-kind dinner event. I can’t say enough. They are the best!

    I can’t recommend Joe enough! The food was amazing and he catered for a couple of our vegetarian friends. Party of 15 girls for my 50th birthday celebration where we travelled in from 3 countries. He was punctual, very responsive in the lead up, fabulous food, cleaned up and his wife was wonderful and friendly. Would definitely ask Joe to be our chef again in the future!
  • Avatar Stacey Fitch ★★★★★ 4 months ago
    Chef Joe took great care in preparing a wonderful menu to celebrate my sister’s 60th birthday. His attention to the four-course menu met all the needs of my guests and was absolutely delicious! Chef Joe and his staff provided everything needed to relax no and enjoy ourselves. Dishes and silverware were provided, his staff served each course with explanations of the food choices, and him and his team finalized the event by cleaning my kitchen to perfection. As the host, I was able to relax and enjoy and feel as spoiled as my guests.

  • Avatar Edward Asher ★★★★★ a year ago
    Amazing experience with Chef Joe! Our group of 16 guys used My Chef Orlando for a dinner and we were all very impressed. Food was spectacular but the hospitality provided in your own home was alap incredible.We had a pretty rowdy group, Chef Joe and crew rolled with it and added an exclamation point to a fabulous trip. The four course meal was well paced, diverse, and otherwise seamless.Can’t recommend this business enough.
  • Avatar jasmine zerjal ★★★★★ a year ago
    Wonderful experience. The team were super easy to communicate with, flexible and well priced.On the day they were even better. Food was delicious, couldn’t recommend enough 🙂
  • Avatar John Mager ★★★★★ a year ago
    Two of my children graduated from college and high school. We have been Disney Vacation Club members since they were children. Like their parents, they’ve become big foodies, so we couldn’t think of a better way to celebrate but with a private chef at our DVC villa. After much on-line searching, I found My Chef Orlando. Joe was wonderful to work with. For starters, our flight got canceled and we had to move him to another night. Not a problem for Joe. He rolled with our punches and rescheduled. Our kids have lots of dietary restrictions because of food allergies (peanut, tree nut, dairy and gluten). Not a problem for Joe, he crafted a luxurious five course meal that met all our dietary restrictions and was to die for. He and his assistant for the night (his wife, LOL) were attentive, doting, and engaging yet let us enjoy our celebration without being overbearing. In short, I would not hesitate to recommend My Chef Orlando. He even prepared printed keepsake menus for the night. While there is a cost, when compared to most other high end restaurants at Disney, his service and quality of food is a bargain. This is the way to treat yourself and your family. Thanks Joe, it was a night to remember!
  • Avatar Jack Garland ★★★★★ a year ago

  • Avatar Roy Fulcher ★★★★★ a year ago
    I travel internationally for business and have eaten at fine dining restaurants in London, Paris, Singapore, Madrid, Germany & Italy and have never have a better meal than what Joe prepared for our 50th anniversary dinner.
  • Avatar Kel T ★★★★★ a year ago
    Chef Joe came to our rental house and prepared a perfect dinner for 13 at a birthday celebration. Kimberly assisted with flawless service. Each plate was delicious and had incredible presentation from our crab starter to our mix berry cheesecake dessert. I highly recommend Chef Joe for your next celebration.
  • Avatar Ryah Wooten ★★★★★ a year ago
    Chef Joe and his amazing wife, Kim, made my mom’s birthday celebration one to remember. Chef Joe and Kim are incredible and went above and beyond the private dinning experience. I’ll be dreaming of his cheesecake! BOOK WITH THEM, you won’t be sorry!
  • Avatar John Mager ★★★★★ a year ago
    Incredible food, fun and inviting chef, personalized menu, great conversation, excellent service from both Joe and his wife. Very accommodating to dietary restrictions (gluten and dairy free for individuals without compromising the meal for the rest of the party).
  • Avatar Craig Mager ★★★★★ a year ago

    Joseph was incredible. The food was incredible. They curated the best menu for my friends and I. We had lobster, fillet, salads, deserts just about everything. We came to Orlando to celebrate my daughter’s birthday and we had a couple events going on and they were super patient and accommodating while we finished up our other activities before eating dinner. They served on us hand and foot the entire night and were so sweet. I cannot say enough wonderful things about them. I cant wait to come back to Orlando and book his Chef service again.
  • Avatar Tom Ferrin ★★★★★ 3 years ago
    This is the second time we have used my Chef Orlando. Joe and his wife are fantastic!

I can’t recommend them highly enough. You will not go wrong having My Chef Orlando cook for you.
  • Avatar Scott Stein ★★★★★ 3 years ago
    As a small business, we make it a policy to only recommend other small businesses that are of the highest quality.

  • Avatar Scott Mozingo ★★★★★ 5 years ago
    I can't say enough good things about Chef Joe and My Chef Orlando. I was planning a dinner for my husbands 50th birthday. I love to eat and the menu had so many delicious options it was hard to narrow it down. Chef Joe was super quick to reply to both email and phone calls and helped us craft the perfect menu for everyone and even had a vegetarian option for two of our guests. We had a delicious plated four course meal and by the end we were so full and happy we barely moved. If you're thinking about using My Chef Orlando, just go for it. You won't be disappointed!

If you are looking for a chef for an in-house party please give chef Joe and Kim your consideration. We had a small... (12 total) special milestone birthday dinner for my wife and when a couple of guests expressed reluctance to going out I researched private chef options and came across My Chef and I'm really glad I did. I couldn't have been more pleased with how the evening turned out.read more

The salad was Crispy oven baked goat cheese farmed arugula Anjou pears candied pecans Cherry jam & aged Balsamic , main course was Ale marinated Angus beef tenderloin wild caught shrimp with green garlic chimichurri, roasted heirloom baby potatoes & buttered brussels sprouts & rosemary Demi. He was so attentive to every detail. They made my day extra special. I would truly recommend Chef Joe to anyone that is planning a special event whether it be big or small. I will be definitely calling Chef Joe for my next event.read more

WOW pretty much sums up our experience with My Chef Orlando! Joe made us the most delicious meal and Kimberly helped... with the ambiance to make it THE most perfect date night IN possible! For anyone looking for a 5-star restaurant meal and service, but in the comfort of your own home, definitely go with My Chef Orlando. From the stellar communication beforehand to the wide range of delicious menu choices, this experience was top notch from start to finish. I truly do not know if I ever had a better filet mignon!! I especially loved the polaroid keepsake photo they took of us at evening's end. This was a night both my husband and I will never forget! Thank you, Joe!!read more

We had friends of over 20 years visit from out of town and they surprised us with this amazing meal. Chef Joe gave us... an incredible experience. He was so accommodating as we had several people with dietary restrictions. We had cioppino, coconut shrimp, chicken in an herb butter sauce, salad, flatbread, beef wellington, lentils and a chocolate flourless cake. Every dish was bursting with flavor and with great ingredients. We definitely recommend Chef Joe if you are looking for an amazing meal in the comfort of your own home.read more

If you want to impress, this is who you must call. Chef Joe far surpassed my expectations. Eight of us were staying... in a beautiful home on a golf course in Orlando and wanted to do something a little different than the norm. It was great to not have to think about going out to a restaurant after a long day on the links. Joe and Kimberley arrived on time and began to prepare the gourmet feast that would put any chef to the test. While dinner was being prepared, they put out an ample spread of a variety of cheeses, nuts, and spreads to enjoy as the house filled with the aroma of brewing meal. We started with a delicious and spice vegetable verde soup made with tomatillos and garnished with sour cream. It was a delectable starter. The endive salad followed and it was a great experience of textures and flavors which included apples, cheese, dried cherries and mixed greens with a scrumptiously light dressing. We could have stopped at this point, but the best was yet to come. We chose a non-traditional surf and turf dinner that was highlighted by a perfectly cooked Filet Mignon paired with a pan seared Tilapia that literally melted in your mouth as it was so tender, flaky and light. The accompanying veggies were brussel sprouts, baby yellow carrots, and roasted purple potatoes. To heighten our decadence we were offered a duo of mousse (chocolate & vanilla) garnished with some fresh fruit and a delicious down home versions of a fresh baked apple pie thingy with Ice Cream. Multi Yums on every course. We chose to do wine pairings with the meal and Kimberley, who is quite well versed in her wine knowledge, made for an interesting presentation and explanation with each pairing. The pair then proceeded to clean the kitchen and the dishes and left us feeling like royalty. If you are that someone that likes to do things the right way...this is the private chef experience for you.read more

Chef Joe & Kimberly provided one of the best dinners I have ever had. The flavors in everything made was so delicious!... Our company normally goes out to restaurants for our Holiday parties but this year we decided on a personal chef instead and it was such a great choice! We had such a great time being able to talk and play games without feeling constricted to a table in a restaurant. Chef Joe & Kimberly set everything up so beautifully AND even left everything spotless afterwards. Thank you so much for such an amazing dinner. It was a pleasure to meet you both.read more

Chef Joe came to our rented house while we were on vacation. The meal was a great experience for all 14 of us, ranging... in age from 57 to 16 months. Everyone was delighted with the evening. For the adults he made a 5 course tasting menu, one course better than the next! My favorite was the spring pea risotto. For the kids, chicken and mac and cheese. They loved it! Then when we were finished everything was totally clean like it never happened. We will surely do this again!read more

Last Christmas, I received a gift card toward a dinner in my home prepared by Chef Joe Pannulo. It turned out to be an... amazing evening and an extraordinary dining experience.
Joe let me know he had brought everything he needed to prepare the dinner including cookware, utensils, etc. and that I should feel free to entertain our guests. He wasn't kidding! I was able to enjoy myself the entire evening while he took care of everything.
The table was beautifully set and included fancy menus to describe each course at each of our places. When serving us the courses, Joe poured our waters and wine, told us a bit about our food and made sure we were relaxed and enjoying the meal.

The food was so delicious! Each course was something new and inventive to us.
We started with a light endive salad, had a delicious grouper and polenta entree and ended with the presentation of blazing pan of bananas flambé that was then served to us with ice cream.

After dinner, before I could blink, Joe had loaded all his supplies in his car and my kitchen was spotless. He was very professional, gracious, efficient, knowledgeable and talented and provided us with an unforgettable evening.

The next time I need to cater or wish to have a chef cook in my home, I plan to hire the My Chef team again.
