Restaurant-Quality Dining at Home – Chef Tyler Delivers!
We had the absolute pleasure of having Chef Tyler cook for us last night, and it was an incredible experience from start to finish! He prepared two delicious meals—BBQ-seasoned roasted salmon with homemade mashed potatoes, and a peppered beef dish with fresh broccoli—that were both bursting with flavor. He also made a fresh Caesar salad with hand-chopped lettuce, seasoned croutons, and a homemade dressing that was out of this world.
Chef Tyler was not only punctual and friendly but also extremely clean and professional. He used all of our utensils, pots, and pans, and—here’s the best part—he washed, dried, and put away every single one of them! It was like we had a five-star restaurant experience in the comfort of our home, minus the cleanup.
The food was amazing, and we couldn’t have been more impressed with his attention to detail and care. Highly recommend Chef Tyler for any occasion!

CookinGenie made the process of having a chef come to our home incredibly easy! We were also very impressed with the chefs that came, Cayla and Chris. They were amazing - as was the meal they prepared. They showed up on time, were incredibly organized and just a joy to have in our home. We ordered the lettuce cups, bruschetta & dumplings. During the process, they explained their plant based, alkaline approach and that their goal was to show how flavorful it could be. They were right! Everything was so unique in the best way. The combination of spices they used were incredible. We would highly recommend them!

Absolute best private dining experience…
Absolute best private dining experience we’ve ever had! Chef George is a consummate professional, who brought a five star dining experience right into our Airbnb to celebrate a big birthday milestone. The kids even got to enjoy a toddler friendly meal before we sat down to our four courses. The food was impeccable, the plating superb, and the advanced cocktails and appetizers set the tone for what was a lovely night. Would highly recommend him and the cooking genie services!

Cookingenie in DMV area
I was excited to learn that cookingenie is now in the DMV area. I had previously experienced this in my friend's place in Ohio.
Registering on the app, viewing the menu and placing the order was super easy.
I decided to try chef (Dashawn Toppin) last weekend. He was extremely professional and food was all freshly cooked in our kitchen. We ordered Thai salad, Fish tacos and Blackened Salmon. All the food was excellent. My friends were amazed at the quality of food, personal chef-like experience at such a nominal price. I thought I would have some left overs, but I was wrong. We are looking forward to experience more of Dashawn's and other Chef's food.

Amazing Brunch Experience!
We got the pleasure of having Isaiah Mcatee come to cook an amazing breakfast for us this past Sunday. Not only was the food seriously delicious, but Isaiah was extremely friendly, proud of his work, and answered any and all questions we had along the way. The Spiced Bacon was to die for, and funnel cake waffles were truly one of a kind. I’d never had bread wings before, but this may be a new requirement for any brunch. I would highly recommend Isaiah and CookinGenie to anyone!

I loved having Daniel Meadows come into our kitchen with groceries and his professional knives in hand. He needed very little help from me; he knew just what to do. The only prep I did was set the table ahead of time. The food was delicious and there were left overs for our dinner the next night.
