Chef Saito truly exceeded our expectations! Every course of his dinner was absolutely delicious, and we loved the combination of interesting flavors. He is a super nice guy and remained quite unobtrusive throughout the evening. When he served each course, he took care to explain the dish. When he left, I was surprised to find that my kitchen was cleaner than when he arrived! I highly recommend Chef Saito!

Chef Saito was punctual, professional and his food was delicious! We had a fabulous Father's Day dinner in our backyard. Will definitely hire chef Saito again!

Chef Saito provided us with exactly what we asked for - he was eager to customize his menu to our preferences, delivered an incredible meal and left the kitchen spotless. We would definitely invite him back!

First time using this service, and we were NOT disappointed.

Chef Saito arrived on time, created a stunningly great meal, explaining each dish and the inspiration behind it. Leaving our kitchen cleaner than when he arrived.
10outta10 would use Chef Saito, and Kitchit again. Simply awesome experience. Our friends thought so too.

Josh was amazing. He was very creative in accomodating dietary restrictions and put together a cohesive/delicious menu. His green tea tiramisu and stuffed calamari were particularly noteworthy.

Wow. Really wow. We all agreed the salmon was better than any salmon we'd ever had. It was like...carmelized. Big portions. Josh was wonderful. A really nice, unassuming guy who makes amazing food. I cannot recommend him or Kitchit enough. I had plates and dishes out ready to go, so I made sure to be helpful by having things available, and then by being out of the way so that Josh could make an amazing meal. For a first experience with the Kitchit website, this was incredible.

We had an excellent experience with Chef Saito. He was: 
- Communicative beforehand
- Prompt on the day
- Courteous whilst working, and patient as our friends built up around him
- Informative with the menu, throughout the meal
- Meticulous in his clean-up (which really impressed) 
And the food? It was great! Varied, well-presented and flavorful. And he catered equally well across the vegan, veggie, non-veggie mix (the vegan kefta was fantastic).
Many thanks from all of us - you made the dinner party a great success.

Josh did a wonderful job getting the food ready quickly and presenting it beautifully—especially since he filled in for another chef on such short notice. I really appreciated him stepping in.

Josh was amazing. We gave him free latitude to cook what he wanted. He prepared an inventive five-course meal, largely with Japanese themes. He shopped especially for us, and found special ingredients. Every dish was excellent. Josh really exceeded our expectations.

Chef Saito was all around great! It was wonderful arriving home after a long day and commute to a 'home-cooked' meal. He was pleasant, has a passion for food, extremely trustworthy (we couldn't greet him in time so the front desk let him in early and started prepping with no issues), and would definitely have him back for a larger dinner party!

He was on time, polite and professional.  The food was great and Josh walked us through his thought process of creating the meal.  It was a special night for us.  Thank you!

Chef Josh really knows his stuff.  He's comfortable cooking a variety or cuisines, as can be seen in this meal that includes elements from Thai, Japanese, and Chinese cooking.  Small touches, like the pistachio in the tiramisu and the roasted red pepper puree complementing the croquettes, allude to Chef Josh's world travels and he executes them perfectly.

Chef Saito was excellent. This was our first Kitchit experience (and our anniversary) and he created an exceptional meal. Four delicious courses and our kitchen was spotless when he left. Thanks so much Chef Saito, we'll definitely see you again!

Chef Saito prepared a wonderful dinner for 10 people, accommodating one vegetarian and one guest who was allergic to shellfish. The food was unique but approachable, and it was delicious and with good portion sizes. Chef Saito was also very personable and friendly and it was a real pleasure having him in our home.

Chef Josh Saito was amazing. We had an amazing meal and experience. He even created a delicious noodle dish for our daughter that was not part of the menu. We will most definitely be using Kitchit again and requesting Chef Saito. Everyone should be lucky to have him create a meal for them. And that green tea soufflé was finger licking good (everyone's bowls were licked clean and that was after three delicious and filling previous courses!)

I was extremely happy with my Kitchit dinner featuring Chef Josh Saito. The plan came together quite last minute, and I was thrilled to find a chef who was extremely responsive and flexible to work with my last minute planning. He was very communicative in letting me know anything needed in advance and making sure the menu was appropriate and up to my liking. The food was delicious and beautifully presented, and most importantly, brought out in perfect timing. Chef left my home extremely clean and made my evening a true success!
