What people say about private dining in Schenna

Yuna S.

2025-08-26

★ 4.5/5

"I came for the food and left raving about the wine. The chef curated a selection of small-producer wines that I would never have found on my own. A biodynamic Rosso di Montalcino, a skin-contact white from Friuli, and a dessert wine from Pantelleria that paired perfectly with the almond cake. My palate has been forever expanded."

Akiko T.

★ 5.0/5

"Had reservations about the price but within ten minutes of the chef arriving, all doubt vanished. The quality, the care, the sheer generosity of the portions — everything signaled that this was money extremely well spent."

Skyler H.

★ 5.0/5

"We are repeat customers — this was our fourth private chef booking across different trips to Italy. Each time has been excellent but this chef was our favorite yet. The attention to detail, the warmth, the way he remembered that we mentioned liking spicy food and incorporated a subtle kick into every course. We will specifically request him next time."
