Reserve a chef, not a table.

ChefM8 books professional chefs into your kitchen for a restaurant-caliber meal — a real menu, real plating, your table. No reservation, no dress code, no drive home.

How it works

Three courses, start to finish.

Booking a chef follows the shape of the meal itself — you browse, you reserve, then you just show up to your own dinner party.

Course One

Browse

Search chefs near you by cuisine, price, and open dates. Every listing shows real menus and real reviews.

Course Two

Reserve

Pick a menu, set the headcount, lock the date. Your chef confirms and handles the shopping list.

Course Three

Host

Your chef arrives, cooks, plates, and cleans your kitchen behind them. You just sit down to dinner.

For hosts

A private chef, without the private-chef price tag.

  • Book by the night — no retainer, no subscription required to dine.
  • Filter by cuisine, budget, and dietary needs before you commit.
  • Pay one bill: the chef, the ingredients, the experience.
For chefs

Your menu, your price, your schedule.

  • Set your own menus, pricing, and availability.
  • Get matched with hosts already looking in your area.
  • Keep the tips and the relationship — ChefM8 takes a booking fee, not your client.
