Butterroot Private Chef Reviews

we’ve never been anything but blown away with her cuisine

We’ve had Tiffany to our office at least a dozen times over the last couple years to prepare meals for groups of 8-20 guests. She is professional, consistent, insanely creative and we’ve never been anything but blown away with her cuisine. Whether it be how she sources local ingredients, forages for edible flowers to top a salad, or searches the farmers market for just the right fruit to accompany dessert her passion for her craft shows in the quality of her dishes. As an organizer I particularly appreciate her cleanliness, ability to adapt to any dietary restrictions, and clear communication. I look forward to many more successful dinners with Tiffany 🙂

a perfect experience! her food is exquisite

We had Chef Tiffany cook a fabulous meal for my bachelorette group of 12 girls and had a perfect experience! She is laid back and professional, her food is exquisite (need that Carrot puree recipe, Tiffany!), and she was completely accommodating of food restrictions and allergies in our group. This was our second time working with Tiffany, and she’ll continue to be a family favorite whenever we’re in the Sonoma area!

creativity, presentation, quality of food and taste exceeded our expectations

We used Chef Tiffany twice for our family dinners while staying in Napa. The only mistake we made was not booking her for our entire trip. Her creativity, presentation, quality of food and taste exceeded our expectations and left a positively memorable experience for all diners. Would definitely use her again! 5/5 stars

personable, professional, and the food was wonderful

Fabulous night. Tiffany and her assistant Fletcher were a pleasure to work with and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this chef. Personable, professional, and the food was wonderful.

an amazing job

Tiffany did an amazing job!! The food was delicious and she prepared a feast that everyone loved. There were friends with allergies and she was also so flexible and worked around their needs. We'd highly recommend!
