In House Chef

Thank you Chef Jose for the amazing meals at Villa Tuscany. You went above and beyond yet again. We loved the appetizer guacamole, pico de gallo, and ceviche with handmade plantain and tortilla chips just as much as the red snapper, empanadas, deep fried pork, rice and beans, and salads. It was so wonderful to wake up to the smell of delicious breakfast being prepared as well! I am always so impressed with what a fantastic, thoughtful chef you are. Like it or not, you are now a member of the family. Hope to see you again next year!

Chef Jose treated our large group so well last year (Jan 2015) that we booked our Jan 2016 company retreat around his availability! Each time we stayed at Villa Tuscany (Wyndham Rio Mar) and Chef Jose served up perfection at each meal. We had breakfast and dinner each day and it’s impossible to pick a favorite dish. He purchased all groceries for the house as well, such a great time-​saver! We would not hesitate to recommend Chef Jose to anyone needing first-​class Chef services in Puerto Rico. His creative, beautifully-​plated and delicious creations were once again the highlight of our vacation. And we’d highly recommend his bartender Frank. Frank made several unique local cocktails as well as alcohol-​free versions for the kids. They are both kind and very hard-​working men. See you next year, my friends!

Jose and his staff prepared 3 dinners and a brunch for our party of 40 for our wedding weekend, and every morsel of food he cooked was delectable! Our guests raved about Jose and his meals all weekend. He is professional, organized, friendly and leaves the kitchen spotless. I definitely recommend the Jose and his team, and we will dine with the In House Chef again!

Professional, yet personal. Quality foods with attention to detail. Our group of 30± enjoyed brunch and dinners. We highly recommend In House Chef and will engage them again upon our return.

Chef Jose Angel catered a friend’s 40^th birthday. From the appetizers to the dessert, everything was so delicious! And both Chef and Albierto were extremely gracious and personable. Thank you for a great dinner!

Chef Jose is so amazing!!! Hubby and I visited Puerto Rico and on a last minute thought, decided we wanted a personal chef for my birthday and as busy as this man is and since it’s only for «2», he came through and literally «spiced» up the night!!! Definitely one of the things to remember from this trip. His food is excellent and his personality is oh so nice and accommodating!

We have used Chef Jose twice so far and can’t say enough wonderful things about him and his food. On the first occasion, we decided to try him out for my boyfriend’s birthday party for about 20 people. We had a particular vision for the food, and we wanted to specify each dish as well as the kind of service we wanted. The results were superb. The food was outstanding, and the experience stress-​free.
Since then, we have recommended him to guests of our vacation villa business, The Collection at Rio Mar, and our guests have had nothing but great feedback. He is able to cook for large and more intimate gatherings and has a very wide and capable culinary range. We recommend him.

My family travelled to Puerto Rico for a two week trip over Christmas. José and his staff did an excellent job, especially considering all the dietary restrictions of our large group! The food was always delicious and exciting. We especially appreciated the traditional Puerto Rico dishes. It’s always fun to try new things! The whole team was professional and easy to have around. We would highly recommend using José as your In House Chef!

I organized a weekend in Puerto Rico for my boyfriend’s 30^th birthday. We were a group of 17 and booked Chef Jose to prepare breakfast, lunch and dinner. His meals were DELICIOUS!!! From the omelet station to the filet mignon, it’s impossible to choose a favorite dish. Everybody couldn’t stop raving about the food during and after each meal. It was so nice to not have to worry about cooking meals during the vacation, and Chef Jose is the warmest and most kind-​hearted person. I highly recommend him!

My husband and I traveled to Puerto Rico with our entire family for our wedding and stayed at Villa Tuscany. Jose was a pleasure! Every meal was prepared with detail and absolutely delicious. I am waiting for the day we go back just to have his «avena» first thing in the morning.
Our experience at Villa Tuscany with Jose was exceptional and we look forward to seeing him in the near future!
Gracias Jose!

The best food I have EVER had, hands down! Best part of our trip. And a joy to be around, as well!

We used Chef Jose for our group trip to Puerto Rico. The food that he prepared was amazing. We had a party of 18 and we had him prepare breakfast, lunch and dinner for 4 days which was no easy task. There was nothing that he prepared that wasn’t absolutely delicious. I have a 10 and a 12 year old child and both of them love what he prepared. My son requires a special diet and chef Jose went out of his way to prepare incredible meals for him. I wish we could take him home with us.

Angel (Jose) catered for our StarBrite Dental group trip at Villa Sophia. He catered 6 of our meals over 3 days– breakfast, lunch n dinner. All guests of our party aging from 9 years old to 50 were simply impressed with every single meal.
From bacon, quiche and ceviche to lobster risotto and fillet Mignon– he did it all and did it 5 stars. He out chef’d the local restaurants hands down.
He was also very personal, friendly and accommodating if we needed any spec items added to the cuisine. His assist who did not speak much English, Gustavo, was also very friendly and went the extra length to make it a pleasant experience.
So 5 star review.
