Reviews for Private Chef Dining Experience

We wanted to surprise my parents for their 40th anniversary with a unique and fun experience. I was referred to Twisted Tines by a friend who had recently used them for a birthday celebration. Wow- what a treat! Chef Travis delivered an unbelievable meal for my family. Communication and ease of booking was top knotch from the start, he made menu suggestions and ensured our dinner was perfect- arrived on time and was prompt to begin our dinner at our preferred start time . I will definitely be using Twisted Tines and Chef Travis again! Thank you!

We had an AMAZING evening with Chef Travis, Katie, and their Twisted Tines team. We hired them to cook and serve our private dinner party and I can’t say enough about how great they were. The food was first class, the service was elegant, the attention to detail was perfect - and to top it all off, they are such kind and wonderful people. Our family was blown away by the experience. We will absolutely use them again and would HIGHLY recommend them to everyone!

Chef Travis and his wife are the SWEETEST people!!! Not only will you receive wonderful and personalized service, you get to eat some truly delicious hand-crafted food! And I don’t mean that lightly. Quite literally EVERY SINGLE DISH was delicious! You could really tell how passionate Travis was about his food and cooking. They are such kind people and we had a great experience. Travis shared each dish with us and explained how he prepared it which was very unique. It was a very special experience to say the least. We booked them for my parents 40th wedding anniversary dinner and it was a lovely evening. They served 5 courses to my family, they would present the dishes to my parents first (the guests of honor), and next would serve the women at the table followed by the men! Such a classy little detail that was added without even asking! 10000/10 would book again for literally any event. They cooked, cleaned, and left everything spotless. Thank you for an unforgettable evening! We loved you! ❤️

The Twisted Tines was absolutely fantastic! We hired them to cater my husband‘s birthday brunch. The communication was excellent. The menu was awesome. The food tasted amazing. And the service was stellar! Our whole group was so impressed with everything. They came to our Airbnb, set up, cooked ,and cleaned up. I would highly recommend for your catering needs!!

Twisted Tines blew us away from start to finish! Over two full days in Nashville, we had the chance to enjoy breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and every single meal was a highlight of our weekend at Masterminds. Each dish was healthy, balanced, fresh, and absolutely delicious. You could taste the care and quality in every bite—thoughtfully prepared meals that left us feeling great without ever compromising on flavor. Whether it was a vibrant, energizing breakfast or a light yet satisfying dinner, the consistency was incredible. Twisted Tines nails that rare balance between creative, exciting flavors and wholesome, feel-good food. And then there’s the team—truly the heart of the experience. Every single person we interacted with was friendly, attentive, and full of personality. They made us laugh, made us feel welcome, and created an atmosphere that felt relaxed but effortlessly polished. The service was just as memorable as the food, and that’s saying something. If you’re looking for a place that delivers high-quality meals, good vibes, and top-tier hospitality, Twisted Tines is it for private events. Whether you’re just passing through or planning an event in Phoenix, Nashville, or any other major city, this is the kind of team that turns a meal into an experience. Can’t wait to experience it again!

Chef Travis and Chef Rob were amazing! I couldn't have asked for a better experience for our group. Their food is a work of art! We rented a house for an 8 person Scottsdale golf weekend. We had Twisted Tines out twice to cater the dinners & breakfasts for the group. Everything was first class. The food was amazing and so well prepared and presented. We planned a seafood night and then a steak night with lots of great complimentary courses. Everything was homemade including the pasta. The meals were the talk of the trip and definitely a highlight of the weekend for everyone. Can't thank you guys enough for such an amazing experience! Can't wait for the next time.

I hired Twisted Tines for my 60th Birthday evening with Girlfriends and cannot express my gratitude enough for the experience that Chef Rob provided for the event. Working with Chef Travis to select a wonderful 5 course extravaganza was also top notch. Katie was such a great assistant in helping us through out the night. They are all very professional, cleaned up as if they were never at your home. Can accommodate dietary needs. I give them a 10+++. Thank you Travis, Rob and Katie for adding to my Birthday celebration.

If you want your special event to be memorable, delightful, fun, and, most importantly, DELICIOUS, you 100% need to book Chef Travis. I hosted a Scottsdale Bach where the bride was looking for a unique menu with Asian flavors. Multiple chefs in the area flat out refused to deviate from their standard to accommodate our requests, but Chef Travis was immediately up to the challenge. Every single interaction we had with him was nothing short of wonderful— from intro and planning phone calls going back 4 months to the day of the event, he genuinely makes you feel like you are an important, valued friend instead of simply another booking. Other than being one of the most pleasant planning experiences I have ever had, the food BACKS IT UP. Our group has very high standards and multiple people are “foodies” but this meal was truly out of this world. More than one person finished saying that it was the singular best meal they ever had. I am personally still dreaming about the tempura Brussels sprout which was good enough to eat about 49 of alone. Bottom line— please book Chef Travis/Twisted Tines and have the dinner of your dreams. I wish I lived in Scottsdale so that I could book him for any and all special events in my life, but I suppose I’ll just have to pay for him to travel to Dallas instead.

We had Travis and his team cook for a bachelor party. It was definitely a 5 star experience worth trying. The food and service were amazing! Travis has a true passion for food and you can taste it through his dishes!

I had my bachelor party in Scottsdale this past weekend, and hands down one of the best decisions we made was to hire Chef Travis and his team for a private dinner. The service was exquisite from beginning to end and the food…THE FOOD, my friends, was top notch. Worth every. single. penny. All weekend all 14 of us talked about how incredible the meal was. Chef Travis and his crew were professional, extremely knowledgeable, and let’s not forget fun and engaging. If you’re looking to have a memorable dining experience, look no further than Twisted Tines. If you don’t want to take my word for it, see pictures attached! Cheers, Eric

Had Travis and his party for our man’s 15 person Bachelor party over at our AirBNB. Hands down better than a dinner out at a restaurant. Delicious and wonderful experience for a 5-course dinner. Do it!!

I was a guest at a bachelor party recently where we hired a private chef to cook for us. The chef was amazing! He was very accommodating and took the time to get to know our dietary restrictions and preferences. He also created a custom menu and willing to accommodate our dietary restrictions that was perfect for the occasion. The food was absolutely delicious! The chef used fresh, high-quality ingredients and took the time to cook everything perfectly. Chef Travis took great care in preparing each dish, and it showed. The food was beautifully presented, even though it was being cooked in a home kitchen. The chef took the time to make sure that each dish looked its best. Chef Travis and his team were able to cook the food in a timely manner, prepared dinnerware, and even though we had a large group always made sure we were okay. Chef Travis and his team was also a lot of fun to have around. He was friendly and engaging, and he made sure that everyone had a good time. Overall, I had a wonderful experience with Chef Travis. He is a talented chef who provides excellent service. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a private chef for a special occasion.

We had Chef Travis prepare a 5 course dinner plus appetizers for our group of 12 last night and it was absolutely amazing! The service from his team was exceptional and timing of all plates was right on. Our entire party was blown away by the flavors and he made for a memorable evening for my wife’s 50th! Thanks Chef!

If I could have Chef Travis cook for me every day, I would say I've died and gone to heaven. His food is exquisite. We gifted a 5-course meal as a Christmas present to my family and when I say all six of us were gobsmacked, I am not exaggerating. Not only can Chef Travis elevate the basics to an ethereal level, he has an uncanny ability to pair flavors that would otherwise be left to their lonesome little selves. His culinary knowledge and technique rival a Foodnetwork chef and he takes tremendous pride in every ounce of goodness that makes it on the plate. And bonus...he's so much fun to talk to. There is no doubt, we will be repeat, local patrons.

6/5! We hired Travis for NYE dinner with family and friends in Scottsdale. Travis was great to work with leading up to the event and was able to accommodate a couple food allergies seamlessly. Not only was the meal incredible, but Travis was very engaging and a great host. Definitely will work with him again!

I booked Chef Travis to cook dinner for my bachelorette party. He was so incredible to work with from start to finish! During the menu planning process he was quick to respond every single time and was super helpful in locking down a menu that would work for all my girls (including a dairy-free diner). On the day of the party he arrived at the set time and was so friendly and personable. He was respectful of our space and left it cleaner than he found it! Each course was served seamlessly and the evening couldn't have flowed better. The food was next level delicious and the plating was beyond beautiful. This was such a special night with my friends that I will cherish forever. I would recommend Twisted Tines to anyone and everyone! 10/10 on quality & service!

Booked Travis for a friends bachelorette weekend. He worked with me closely on the menu to make sure we were meeting any dietary restrictions and coming up with a cohesive meal. The food was absolutely delicious and Travis was a pleasure to work with. Would definitely recommend.
