EXCELLENT Based on 13 reviews Posted on Google Jessica BaumgardnerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Incredibly professional, responsive and thoughtful. The food was amazing, fresh and beautifully prepared. We did it the live experience for 7 people for a bachelorette party and he incorporated all sorts of personal touches! Would highly recommendPosted on Google Kaitlin RobertsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The best dining experience I’ve ever had!! Scott was so thoughtful with our bride-to-be, providing quotes about her from her fiancé. Every detail was thought of, from the center piece he provided, to a guide book on finding and cooking the best fish. And the obvious, the food was amazing!!! Best ceviche I’ve ever had, hands down. I don’t even like carrots, but I ate all the carrots he made! Thank you Chef Scott!Posted on Google Jensen BykeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I could not recommend Evoke enough! Scott is so smart and talented! We learned so much, had amazing food and he went above and beyond to make it special. It is perfect for a birthday, bachelorette, anything!! If you’re in Cleveland or northern Ohio this is a mustPosted on Google George DiverTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Chef Scott simply knock it out of the park!!! There were six of us for dinner and it is some of the best food I have ever eaten. My wife and Chef worked on the menu together to ensure a meal enjoyed by all. And we did nothing but enjoy. Plating, cooking, serving and clean up was all taken care of. It was worth every penny and then some. Count us in for booking another dinner in the future.Posted on Google Barb DiverTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Chef Scott was fantastic. He was on time, thoroughly prepared with his own dishes and cooking needs. Throughout his cooking time, he was open to us watching and asking questions. The food was 5 stars as was the service and his clean-up. I highly recommend him for your next private dinner.Posted on Google Mik ZemTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. What a night! Chef Scott created such an amazing experience for my husband’s 40th birthday. Communication was straight forward and timely, prices were fair, and professionalism was top notch. The food was outstanding. From prepping and sharing cooking knowledge with my children, to incredible plating and flavors, and even a quiet and perfect clean up, Chef Scott delivered an unforgettable night. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is looking for an in home experience. We can’t wait to use him again!Posted on Google Laura TaxelTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Chef Scott Popovic really puts the PERSON in creating private dining and catered events. For a mid-sized celebration in my home, he worked closely with me to plan a menu and experience that reflected my tastes, my ideas and the kind of informal atmosphere I wanted. He created a delicious selection dishes for a grazing table,(including gluten free options), arranged the food beautifully, and kept platters filled and looking good throughout the evening. And the kitchen was spotless when he left. He was easy to work with, quick to respond and attentive to detail. I highly recommend Evoke Private Dining and Chef Scott.Posted on Google Barney TaxelTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
