Private Chef for Hire in San Francisco, CA: A Personalized Dining Experience
Welcome to Capitola Garden Feast, where I, Chef Martin, bring a fine dining experience at home in San Francisco, CA that’s both refined and personal. San Francisco is a city known for its culinary culture, but nothing quite compares to having a Michelin Star Chef in the comfort of your own space, your home, garden, or private venue, including VRBO, Airbnb, and vacation rental properties.
Cooking has always been more than just a profession for me. It’s a form of storytelling. Before founding Capitola Garden Feast in 2017, I spent years working with world-renowned hospitality groups, crafting menus that delighted royalty, celebrities, and global icons alike. I’ve had the incredible honor of preparing meals for Pope John Paul II and Tonino Lamborghini, most notably at the Palace Hôtel Bristol Paris, which the Michelin Guide awarded as Best Hotel In The World and Best Hotel Restaurant In The World.
My journey took me from Egypt to Kuwait and across the U.S., including luxury properties like the Hilton Waterfalls Resort, Gallery One Hotel, and Hotel De Anza. Every experience sharpened my vision, now realized through Capitola Garden Feast.

From sourcing local ingredients to plating each dish with care, my goal is to offer you more than a meal, it’s a curated event.

Whether you’re hosting a romantic anniversary dinner or planning an intimate gathering, my team and I offer a luxury lifestyle dining experience that will stay with you and your guests long after the last course.

From being your private chef for birthday parties to preparing unforgettable meals for your anniversary dinner, I ensure every bite is unforgettable.
