Owner / Private Chef
Food and cooking has always been a passion of mine since I was a young kid. My Cuban grandmother lived with my family when I was younger. I’ll never forget the scents that engulfed the house when she would cook her signature Cuban dishes. My favorites were picadillo, ropa vieja and of course black beans and rice, which I still make often today. Although, I could never make them as well as she does.
After years of working in an office I wanted to try something different where I could do something everyday that I loved because sitting in a cubicle wasn’t doing it for me. I took a chance by quitting my job and started my first gig as a cook at Slate Bleu in Doylestown, PA. I have worked in some of the best kitchens in Bucks County including The Inn at Barley Sheaf, Heirloom, Vela, and Solstice.
Working such long hours in a restaurant I wanted to create Navarro Private Chef Services to bring some of my favorite dishes into the comfort of peoples’ homes and create a memorable dining experience for special occasions that mean something for the people I serve. I simply love what I do not just because I get more time to spend with my family but I am able to get to know the families of the clients I serve whether it be a private dinner or regular meal preparation. After doing a few dinners for friends and family celebrating important milestones and experimenting new dishes, the idea of Navarro Private Chef Services came to be.
Whether I am cooking for you for a brunch or dinner, or preparing meals to be reheated for you during the week, I hold myself to the highest standard in making sure that your food is cooked and prepared to perfection.

We celebrated my husband's birthday with family and an absolutely amazing 7-course tasting menu by Adam. From the initial phone call for organizing/brainstorming to the sample menus, his willingness to travel, and most importantly the execution of the meal, the entire process was extremely simple and the food was exceptional. The food was beautifully presented with creative flavor combinations and high-quality ingredients. Adam could legit have a Michelin star it was that good. Our family will not stop raving about the meal! I'm sure we'll be booking again in the near future.

We hired Navarro Private Chef Services for a family event at our home, and the experience was nothing short of amazing. Chef Matt and Danny went above and beyond, crafting a meal that exceeded our expectations. The food was not only delicious but also showcased incredible creativity and flavor—like dining at a fine restaurant, but with the warmth and intimacy of being in our own home. It was a night that our entire family will remember, and we can't thank them enough for creating such a memorable experience.

I hired Chef Adam to cook a private dinner to celebrate my husband's 40th birthday. He was so easy to work with and very accommodating. It was fun working with him to tailor a menu and the meal for 8 was flawless. The food and service were both amazing and he had our kitchen looking spotless by the time we were done eating (which blew my mind). Above all, he was enjoyable to have around. Having a stranger in our home felt oddly comfortable due to his warm and engaging personality. This was my first time hiring a private chef and I'm so glad we chose Chef Adam. Can't wait to plan another event with him!

We hosted a family staycation at our house and decided to have chef Adam come and cook for us. We had a five course meal that was delicious. Adam was very professional. He communicated with us throughout the weeks prior to our event and was very careful about some of our dietary needs. We will definitely have him come again to our house. Thanks so much Adam. :)

We enjoyed a delicious 4 course gourmet meal this Saturday! We started with a winter salad, followed by tortellini served with fresh peas and crispy prosciutto and tender short ribs on a creamy celery sauce and carrots. Finally, we enjoyed an orange

I hired Chef Adam to cook for a holiday party in December for 12 guests. He was so easy to work with and extremely accommodating. The food and service were top tier! All of my guests loved it and it was such a treat. Can't wait to work with him again!

I just attended a wellness retreat and we had the pleasure of using Navarro Private Chef Services! Matt & Danny were next level!! They are outstanding and talented chefs. Matt is creative and passionate and Danny pours her soul into her desserts. Watching them work together is magical and chatting with them is as delightful as every dish they served. They are both so inspired and passionate and it absolutely translated to the table. Their love of their craft spilled into every meal they served and created a happy atmosphere where our group sat and bonded at the table. We struggled to leave the table and to bid our farewells to Matt and Danny. We are already thinking of future events and in home cooking class parties so that we can collaborate with them again.

It was an absolute pleasure working with Chef Adam and his incredible team. We hired Navarro Private Chef Services as an activity for a friend’s bachelorette party, and the experience was nothing short of exceptional. From the very first inquiry to the final clean-up, communication was prompt, professional, and seamless. Every detail was thoughtfully handled, and we felt taken care of every step of the way.
