Anniversary & Romantic Private Dinners in NYC
Mark an anniversary, proposal, or quiet date night with a chef-prepared dinner at home. We design menus and service pacing for intimate tables—typically two to twelve guests—across New York City.
Evenings meant for two (or your closest circle)
Romantic and anniversary dinners usually call for thoughtful courses, unhurried pacing, and details that match the relationship. Dietary needs are noted during planning, and cooking areas are left clean according to the agreed service scope.
What we need from you
Share the date, location, guest count, and anything that should shape the menu (favorite cuisines, dishes to avoid, surprise timing). We do not publish fixed packages online; each evening is quoted individually.
Booking is confirmed in writing
An inquiry does not hold your date. Confirmation happens after you review and accept the proposal and complete the deposit or payment steps identified in your agreement.
Questions
How does in-home private dining work?
You share your date, location, guest count, and occasion through our contact form. We review the details, discuss menu direction and service scope, and send a personalized proposal. Your date is held only after you accept the agreement and complete the payment steps described in your booking documents.
What is included in a private chef experience?
Typical scope includes menu planning, ingredient coordination, on-site cooking, and plated service for the agreed menu. Cleanup of cooking areas used during service is defined in your proposal. Extra servers, coordination, or beverage stations are not assumed—they are discussed when you inquire and confirmed in writing when available.
Can menus be customized?
Yes. Menus are written for your guests, kitchen, and occasion. Share preferences, courses, and any cultural or celebratory touches when you inquire so we can reflect them in the proposal.
How do you handle dietary restrictions and allergies?
Tell us about allergies, restrictions, and preferences during planning. We discuss what can be accommodated safely before you confirm a booking. Final menus and service details are confirmed in your proposal or agreement.
How far in advance should I inquire?
Contact us as early as your plans allow—popular dates and larger gatherings often need more coordination time. We confirm whether your date is available when we reply to your inquiry.
How do pricing and deposits work?
Pricing depends on guest count, menu, location, and service scope. Deposits, payment schedules, and accepted methods are spelled out in your personalized proposal and booking agreement—not on this website.
How do I submit an event inquiry?
Use the contact form at https://www.cateringdining.com/contact (no client account required for an initial inquiry). You may also reach us through the email and channels listed on our contact page.
Can you help with a surprise dinner for my partner?
Yes—tell us what must stay confidential (timing, guest presence, door access). We coordinate details during planning so the surprise still feels smooth on the night.
