Chef Luis did an amazing job helping me bring my family together for the love of cooking. We did the Cuisines of the World, and my Dad, brother and I joined Chef Luis in learning some of our favorite dishes. Having Chef Luis in your home is like family being there. He makes you feel comfortable and does a great job of managing us all through the recipes. And the foodâ€¦.it was outstanding if I do say so myself!

Booked the menu Elevated Thanksgiving Dinner with Chef Luis

Chef Luis made our Thanksgiving absolutely exceptional. He started the evening with a beautiful charcuterie board and a perfectly prepared shrimp cocktail that immediately impressed all of my guests. Dinner was even betterâ€”the turkey was incredibly juicy, and he prepared about six different sides, each one full of flavor and cooked to perfection. On top of delivering an unforgettable meal, Chef Luis handled all the cleanup and left my kitchen spotless. It made the entire holiday effortless and enjoyable for everyone. I canâ€™t recommend Chef Luis highly enough. His professionalism, talent, and attention to detail turned our Thanksgiving into a truly special experience.

Chef Luis was amazing! This class was great. I wanted a fun experience for my birthday with a group of us and this dude not disappoint. With 12 of us it was kind of crazy and wild, but Chef Luis kept it going with such a great attitude and helped us learn some new and wonderful things about making food. Speaking of food, these recipes were phenomenal and well enjoyed by all!!

Chef Luis was fantastic. He is so skilled and knowledgable, and a fantastic teacher. My partner and I had the most fun learning to cook something we never thought we could and picked up a lot of important tips that will make many of our other meals so much better. Highly recommend this experience (or any of his others!)

Chef Luis was great!. We purchased this for a family event and it was everything we hoped it would be. What a great experience. Will definitely do again.

This is the second time we have had Chef Luis out and Iâ€™m so happy we did. I feel so nervous cooking things I have never tried but with Chef Luis there, I feel confident enough to try anything! He is kind, professional, patient and just fun to have around. The bananas foster alone is mind blowing and the seafood puff pastry is going to be a new favorite in our house. Canâ€™t wait until our next class with Chef Luis.

Chef Luis helped us create one of the best meals we have ever personally made or had made for us! We were so impressed with this experience and highly recommend it to anyone wanting to learn how to make an incredible meal.

Kelly N. April, 2021

Booked the event Authentic Mexican Cuisine with Chef Luis

I was so excited to see that Chef Luis has moved to Salt Lake City and I sure didn't want to miss out on the opportunity to have him visit. This was so much fun and we will definitely be having Chef Luis back. The food was amazing and we learned a ton. Chef Luis was patient and friendly and organized. He kept us moving through the menu but he was still a lot of fun to have with us in our home. I absolutely recommend the dishes we tried. I particularly loved the shrimp ceviche and the sauce he uses on the fish tacos is simple to make and absolutely amazing. I think this would be a great opportunity for a team building experience and I am going to suggest it with my work next. Thank you so much!

Chef Luis cooked up the perfect evening for our family girls night in, with a beautiful and delicious 4-course Italian cooking class for 5 people in my home! Chef came prepared for us to learn & cook some fun new recipes, laugh together, and just have a great time. He's extremely enjoyable to be around. I highly recommend Chef Luis and Cozymeal to anyone looking for a fun and intimate experience, topped off with AMAZING food!

Had a great time with Chef Luis! One of the best ribeyes have had in Vegas. Made our quarantine anniversary dinner a big success.

Kay B. July, 2020

Booked the menu New England Style Surf and Turf with Chef Luis

Chef Luis prepared a wonderful meal for my husband's birthday! As New Englanders now living in Vegas, his clam chowder was amazing, and I have very high expectations for my chowder! The ribeye steak was grilled to perfection, and the lobster tail was seasoned perfectly, allowing the sweetness of the lobster to come through. Dessert was the perfect ending to a delicious meal. Chef Luis was friendly, professional, and even did all the clean up and had our leftovers ready to be put away. We will definitely use this service again! Thank you, Chef!

Food and experience was great, but wish we got the recipes and photos that he said he would email to us. If we would have gotten the recipes, then it would have been 5 stars.

We came in not knowing what to expect with a private cooking class but Chef Luis made this an incredible experience. The food was super good and the class in general was tons of fun. We will definitely be booking more classes with him in the future.

Our group of 8 people had a great evening with Chef Luis. He was ready for us when we arrived at his home. He was attentive giving us directions on out meals and answering our questions .We had a Greek meal and it was great. Chef Luis has also been kind enough to even answers questions about the recipes since our evening which I have really appreciate it. His wife was talking pictures of us during the evening which was a nice touch. I can not recommended enough how all of us truly enjoyed our cooking class and dinner. A company who is a client of mone had done a evening with him the week before and they were the ones who told us about cozymeals and Chef Luis. We were so happy that we listen to their recommendation. This was one of the high lights of our trip to Vegas. We are not be gamblers so this was a fun way to enjoy either other company as well as having a great time.

I can't say enough about our team building experience with Chef Luis! We chose the Greek Fare menu and it was incredible. From learning how to prep the rack of lamb to spanokopita, it couldn't have been more fun and engaging. If you're looking to do something interactive with those you work with, or with friends outside of work, LOOK NO FURTHER! Aside from being a gifted chef, Luis is just a lot of fun to be around. You'll leave feeling like you've made a life-long friend! Every single one of my colleagues raved about how much fun they had! Book NOW! You won't be disappointed.

I wish I could give Chef Luis 6 or 7 stars out of 5! Every aspect of this corporate group event was handled with friendly care, exceptional precision and amazing foresight. The entire experience was not only engaging, entertaining, relaxing and fun, but the Chef also worked with us to achieve our organizational goals! Each of my customers were able to develop lasting relationships with peers from other industries in an atmosphere that was conducive to social and professional conversation. The entire planning process was so smooth and seamless and Chef Luis and his staff bent over backward to make sure everything was taken care of, down to the smallest detail. His home is so warm and comfortable, all of my customers were immediately set at ease and able to relax away from the chaos of The Vegas Strip. Here are a few quotes from the event: "Thank you so much for this activity! Was very fun and insightful, inspiring. My favorite activity so far, at this conference" "I made new, real connections that will sustain past conference! It reinforced my ... belief in the power of the relationship my company has with ... our joint desire for mutual success!" "This was an amazing event that is a welcome break from the normal hustle and bustle. I hope these events continue in the future." "This was a great way to get away and build more meaningful connections and share experiences with others in a similar role. By cooking together you also immediately have something in common with the person next to you. Great experience." "The whole evening was an absolute lovely event." We have been asked to host this event again next year with zero changes by all of the attendees! We won't even bother looking for a different Chef or venue, only that Chef Luis duplicate this extraordinary evening again.

We absolutely loved our cooking and dining experience with Chef Luis. We learned some great new techniques and canâ€™t wait to try to make the amazing crab cakes again on our own! We are hoping to plan another soon to learn even more.

Meeting Chef Luis at his home for an Italian cooking lesson was an excellent experience. He made my wife and I very comfortable. He was an excellent host, fantastic teacher and all around great guy. The food was delicious. For less than the cost of most dinners on the Strip, you get a lesson, activity, and dinner all rolled into one. I highly recommend this Cozymeal experience.

Chef Luis was EXCELLENT!!!!!! Very nice house with great ambiance. Perfect for 2 or 12+ people. He was very welcoming and nice. He made sure my date and I felt at ease even though we had no idea what we were doing. He showed us basic knife skills and different cooking techniques. Explaining everything as we went. He gave examples of how to prepare the dishes and then stepped back so we could get our hands right in there and cook. To say the food was FANTASTIC is seriously an understatement. The feta crusted lamb was cooked to perfection. Juicy, well seasoned and he even made a wine reduction sauce to go with it. The cucumber yogurt flavorful. Literally the best i have ever had. I'n normally not a fan of orzo until his. It was creamy and was like a light mac n cheese with spinach in it. The spinach stuffed pastries were flakey and moist. I honestly wanted to lick my plate. By the time we got to the greek donuts for dessert, i was so full but i couldnt walk away without sampling it. Next thing i know, that plate was clear too. I almost had to be rolled out. The portion size was large. So much so the leftovers was another 3 meals. It was beyond worth the price and time. I would highly recommend. An added bonus was he gave us the recipes to every dish we made. His wife was very nice. She took pictures of us cooking to commemorate the experience and sent them to us before we even left. The next time im in Vegas i will book him again without a doubt. Thank you Chef Luis for sharing your home and giving us the best meal we had in Vegas.

What a concept, I celebrated my birthday with 12 friends at Chef Luis' home. It could not have been more perfect! Initially, I thought it would be a little odd entering a stranger's home for dinner, but Chef and his lovely wife made us feel very comfortable. Chef Luis directed us to an amazing 4 course meal. His wife captured beautiful photos of the entire cooking experience which was also a treat. Chef Luis is the BEST! Can't wait to use him again. Thank you Chef Luis and Cozymeal's!

Chef Luis was fantastic in his teaching, hospitality and recipes! We did the big "Global" dinner that he offers and every course was phenomenal. We couldn't believe that we made it all. I highly recommend going to one of Chef Luis' classes, but make sure that you wear makeup because there will be pictures!

Chef Luis was incredible. His knowledge and easy going personality made for a perfect evening. Our menu includes lamb and I don't eat lamb but was willing to give it a try. It was delicious and I ate the whole meal. We had the best evening and time with chef Luis as he shared his home with us. Can't wait to do it again. 5 stars Pam Dechief :)

Chef Luis was amazing! He came to our home, cooked for us and with us, and made the whole experience incredibly fun and educational. He was friendly, patient, and took the time to teach us new skills in the kitchen. As a foodie with allergies, I especially appreciated how knowledgeable and accommodating he was. Highly recommend him for a personalized, delicious, and unforgettable culinary experience!

Having a private professional chef preparing a gourmet meal in your home is the best. Entertaining our guests is so much more enjoyable when Chef Luis does all the work. Thank you Chef for an wonderful evening.

Chef Luis is the man! We had a 12 person dinner and everyone was so pleased with the meal that was made. Chef Luis was kind and patient while instructing us on how to make our own pasta and also delicate chocolate mousse for dessert. Donâ€™t hesitate to book a night with him!

Booked the class Romantic Italian Favorites with Chef Luis

Having Chef Luis over to give us a lesson was so much fun! We really enjoyed the evening and learned some great new tips, along with new recipes. He made it work at the Airbnb we were staying at by bringing a few of his own tools so we had everything we needed. We were a little nervous, not sure what to expect (we may have watched to many Hellâ€™s Kitchens, where chefs yell a lot), but he immediately walked in and made it a relaxing night. He was just like inviting a friend over and cooking together. We would highly recommend this experience to everyone!

We enjoyed the class and food. Chef Luis was easy going and down-to-earth which made the experience easy and enjoyable!

Chef Luis was accommodating, prompt, and professional. Despite our lack of office kitchen essentials, he had us covered. He guided us on how to correctly hold and handle extremely sharp knives, sharing valuable cooking tips and tricks along the way. The food we prepared was both simple and delicious. As a bonus, he took videos and pictures during the event and sent them to us later. The team-building exercise was the perfect conclusion to our two-day Product Leadership marathon. Sure beats the standard axe-throwing or Escape Room schtick! Thanks, Chef Luis!
