Private Chef in Santa Monica — Authentic Italian Dining at Home

Looking to hire a private chef in Santa Monica? I bring restaurant-level Italian cuisine directly to your home: cooked fresh, plated with care, and built entirely around your table and your occasion.

From oceanfront condos to hillside homes near Santa Monica Canyon, I've cooked in every kind of Santa Monica setting, including patio and outdoor dinners that take full advantage of the coastal evening air.

Between Ocean Park, Montana Avenue, and the Canyon, most requests are romantic dinners and small anniversary celebrations, so my menus for this area lean toward lighter, seafood-forward Italian courses that pair well with an ocean view.

Whether it's a one-time private dinner or a recurring personal chef service, every menu is authentic, seasonal Italian cuisine, prepared entirely from scratch with premium ingredients.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Absolutely. Many Santa Monica homes have wonderful outdoor spaces, and I'm happy to plan the menu and service around a patio, terrace, or oceanview setting, including a weather backup plan for the coastal evening breeze.

Pricing depends on the service: romantic dinners for two start from $145 per person, culinary parties start from $125 per person, large events start from $115 per person, and the weekly personal chef package starts from $115 per person per dinner. Food, beverages, and travel are quoted separately.

A private chef is typically booked for a single occasion, like a dinner or an event. A personal chef refers to an ongoing, recurring service, such as the weekly meal package. I offer both, with no obligation to commit to a recurring arrangement.

I'm based in Los Angeles and travel throughout Los Angeles and beyond, so Santa Monica is well within my regular service area. I bring everything needed to cook a full, authentic Italian menu at your home.
