Chef Adair – Private Chef Service

Chef Adair and his team were fantastic! The food was excellent and we all enjoyed his ability to fit into our group dynamic and add to the fun of our party. It was a great experience and I would recommend hiring Chef Adair for any private function.

One of Sonoma’s best chefs!
For my 50^th birthday I employed Chef Adair to create a 4 course menu for 13 people to be cooked and served at the house we rented. The menu was perfect from the delicate, delicious scallops to the amazing fresh filet mignon you could honestly cut with a butter knife. He also was very accommodating for our one vegetarian!
It was a great experience and I will hire him again when I get the chance!

When looking for private chefs, Sonoma county offers a wide variety of choices. I can say without reservation, that Chef Adair represents the best of the best. The food and service were absolutely exquisite. He utilized the existing kitchen perfectly, was informative and entertaining and made everyone feel totally at ease. The lobster and caviar could have been the highlight of our trip! Bottom line: If you’re looking for private chefs, Sonoma county’s finest has to be Chef Adair.

I’m still thinking about the amazing meal we had with Chef Adair more than 2 weeks ago. Course after course of high-​quality, decadent food was placed in front of us while he expertly described the ingredients and why he chose them.
He also knew about all the wines we’d picked up over the weekend and how to pair them with the food.
He and his assistant, Carrie, had us feeling like royalty while also chatting with us and seeming to truly enjoy our company.
I would love to try them again at different times of the year when different ingredients are in season!

Fantastic food. I found him through Unilocal and looked at his menu samples on his website and couldn’t find anything that didn’t sound wonderful. He and his assistant Carrie were very professional and kept the wine and food flowing. We had an amazing night. I would highly recommend them.

Had the most delightful and delicious dining experience with Chef Adair. He deserves 5 stars and beyond! He’s so engaging and obviously a master at his craft. Each dish was a symphony of flavors and paired perfectly with various wines from the region. His assistant Carrie was fantastic as well. If you want a very special evening to remember, go with Chef Adair.

We used Chef Adair several times when we lived in Marin, but this was the first time since we moved back to the City. Garrett and I met several weeks before our holiday party and he was unfazed by the fact that our home was still a construction zone. On the evening of the event, he arrived as agreed 3 hours before the start and he was ready to go! Garrett offers a full service dinner including stemware, decorations and very attentive servers. He is an entertaining chef and his food is very high quality, inventive, and incredibly delicious! The party was a success and ran late into the evening. Garrett and his team quietly cleaned up, filled the fridge with leftovers, and left the place sparkling. He and his team exceed expectations!

We used chef Garrett Adair for my husband’s 65^th birthday party in the wine country, and it was perfection in every way. Each detail was attended to, and the meal was beyond our expectations. One of my guests said that it was the best meal that he had ever been served, including Michelin-​starred restaurants in France!
If you want a magical event, just call Chef Adair…

When my original caterer was unavailable at the last minute, I got a recommendation for Chef Adair. This was a special surprise Birthday for my husband and I was a little anxious, never having used Chef Adair before. After speaking on the phone, he came to my house and we went over the details. He was delightful. The dinner party was a smash! By far the best catered dinner I’ve ever had or been to. It was like dining in your very own Michelin four star restaurant. They made it so easy and elegant.
I would use him for all future events…

Do you want a chef that will leave you high and dry? Go with this guy then. I hired Chef Adair, signed a contract, sent my deposit in and spent time emailing and talking on the phone to establish a menu. Menu is set, I’m happy. All of a sudden out of the blue, he says he can’t do my event anymore — weeks before the event date. Yes, I did get my deposit back. But now I’m scrambling to find a new chef at the last second when I have plenty of other details to worry about. The whole time I was talking with him he was scattered, forgot what we had spoken about, or that we’d even spoken in person — which should have been a red flag to begin with.
Don’t go through what I did!

This is the second time I’ve hired Chef Adair. First time was for a private dinner for 2 and the second time was for a party of 12. Service, quality of food, presentation and professionalism are top notch. Highly recommended. Garrett (Chef Adair) and his team take great pride in procuring only organic locally grown ingredients. You can tell they love what they do!

Great Staff, Great Food, so accommodating! Was a pleasure working with Chef Adair Catering. Very professional and I like their style!

Chef Adair and his staff are very professional– very attentive but not intrusive. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed the event he put on. The food was delicious, unique and each course had a wonderful presentation. The wine pairings worked extremely well, too. We certainly did not go away hungry and will use Chef Adair’s services in the future for our 10^th Wedding Anniversary, later this year!

Chef Adair was a pleasure to work with! He is very enthusiastic about he does! We had a small event (he does very large as well) and he took away a lot of the worry and stress. He offered off-​the-​menu items and allowed me to choose whatever I wanted from his website menu. He was very prompt and thorough with responses and feedback, as well as providing details for our special day. I was very comfortable working with him. I would highly recommend Chef Adair for his professionalism, understanding, warm personality, and amazing menu!

Great caterer! Everyone at our party loved the food, especially the braised short ribs. Chef Adair was great to deal with, very accomodating, detail-​oriented, and always happy. He made our event trully special. I highly recommend him and his staff.
