Meagan Inspyredcreations2024-04-02Grill master indeed! Great food, even catering to picky eaters. Wonderful couple. A delight to have cook for us!
Gianna Doyle2024-04-01We had an amazing experience with Diana and Hernan. The food was incredible and we really enjoyed their company. We had beef empanadas, stuffed avocado, snapper, pork ribs, sautรฉed vegetables, salad and brownies and everything was amazing. We had such a nice time chatting with the chefs. The night was so relaxed and fun. I canโt wait to come back and book them for another meal!
Lance Hudson2024-03-18We had them out our first night of vacation. Worked perfect after traveling for 16 hours. Food was amazing and the chefs were so nice and accommodating. Also, they make a great margarita!!
Kristin Martinez2024-03-06If you're looking for an unforgettable, private dining experience in Tamarindo, Costa Rica, youโve come to the right place! Everything about this meal was truly exceptional โ from the lobster tails and tomahawk steaks to the apps and side dishes and preparing fresh fish that our boyfriends caught on their fishing trip earlier that day, the chef really knocked it out of the park. Our party of 10 people all agreed that this meal was our favorite of the whole trip! But it wasn't just about the food; it was about the experience. Diana, the head chef, not only blew us away us with her delicious food but also charmed us with her warmth and genuine hospitality. She was such a pleasure and added an extra layer of connection, making us feel right at home. The attention to detail and amazing service provided by Tamarindo Grill Masters surpassed all expectations. From grocery shopping to prep and cleanup, everything was taken care of for us! We didn't have to lift a finger. Diana and her team even went above and beyond by arranging grocery shopping for our Airbnb rental for the week (completely unrelated to our private dinner groceries) since we didnโt have a rental car to go ourselves. To sum it up, our experience with Tamarindo Grill Masters was nothing short of phenomenal. If you're considering booking a private chef experience in Tamarindo, do yourself a favor and book with Diana.
Alyssa Stampone2024-03-04Truly an incredible experience from start to finish! Diana and Hernan were super responsive over email which made the planning a breeze. They even cooked the fish we caught during the day!! Menu is extensive and they are very flexible with requests (even picked up some groceries for us for the week!). We were a large group of 10 people, and everyone wanted them to come back for dinner the next night. 12/10!!!
pat hensley2024-02-29Diana and her partner did a great job creating such a wonderful meal as we celebrated my wifeโs birthday. They are very attentive to all the details. Every item was delicious and when the night was done, they left the kitchen and dining area spotless. We will certainly use them again. Pat
Rodney Grebe2024-02-19We had Dianna and Hernan to our rental house and cook for our large group for 2 nights. Everyone was very happy with the quality and yumminess of the food. Further, they were incredibly responsive and communicative during hiring, planning and "day of" logistics. We even had an unforeseen delay in our schedule, and they were VERY understanding and accommodating. I highly recommend and would definitely use them again.
Anna Smith2024-02-16Diana and Hernan cooked multiple meals for my family of 8 during our recent trip to Costa Rica. All the food was amazing! They were super accommodating with requests and had great recommendations. We loved everything that was prepared, especially the arepas. Would definitely recommend!!
Elizabeth Weddington2024-02-13Our family of 22 recently spent a week in Costa Rica. We hired Tamarindo Grill Masters to prepare several of our meals. Not only were they the nicest people you would ever want to meet, their food was incredible! They were very patient with our 10 grandchildren, while they were busy cooking they had to listen to โbaby sharkโ fifty times at least! They had such a wonderful assortment of food that even our pickiest eater had plenty of options. The only draw back was they wouldnโt return home with us!
Sarah Wilgers2024-01-14All around AMAZING! Ceviche, beef empanadas, and another Costa Rican dish I canโt remember the name of were by far the best food we had all trip. The whole meal was fabulous and we highly recommend! So good that we wanted to have them come cook for us again but our trip was too short. Have them cook for you!!
