Reviews Chef Dwayne received outside of Cozymeal

Kiersten Kiersten

Hiring Chef Dwayne was the best decision of the entire trip. Genuinely one of the best meals we’ve ever had, and he made it so fun and easy. He made a three course vegan meal that all party members loved, vegan or not. If you want an impressive meal with excellent presentation, Chef Dwayne is your guy.

Carly Carly

Dwayne was very professional and delivered excellent food. All guests really enjoyed his menu.

Chef Dwayne did an amazing job for my husband's 40th birthday. All my husband wanted was a private chef, ideally in the sushi realm, but he'd given up looking. I'd never hired a private chef before, especially in a smaller city, so I was thrilled to find Chef Dwayne. He took my all-over-the-place prompt and came back with three great menu options. Everything was absolutely killer, beautifully presented, and spreading the three courses into smaller bites made the night feel even more decadent.
