Gourmet Creations by Roberto Medda

If you’re dreaming of dining like royalty without leaving your villa or holiday rental in Tenerife, this private chef experience might just be what you’re looking for. Although I haven’t personally tried it, the reviews paint a pretty appealing picture: a personalized, gourmet meal crafted and served in your own space, delivered with warmth and professionalism.

What we love about this experience is the flexibility—whether you’re celebrating a birthday, hosting a family reunion, or simply craving a luxurious dinner, Chef Roberto Medda tailors each menu to your needs. And the quality of the food consistently gets high praise, with many reviewers mentioning the freshness and variety of the ingredients.

However, a potential consideration is the price point—around $113.49 per person—not necessarily cheap, but many find it fair given the bespoke service and restaurant-quality cuisine. Plus, availability seems to be in high demand, often booked about three weeks in advance, so planning ahead is a smart move.

This tour is ideal if you value personalized dining experiences and want top-tier food without the hassle of cooking yourself. It suits those celebrating special moments or anyone who simply wants a memorable, private culinary adventure in Tenerife.

What to Expect During the Tour

The experience begins with clear, friendly communication. Once booked, Roberto and his assistant arrive promptly at your designated meeting point in Costa Adeje, Tenerife. They set up the space quickly, bringing all necessary ingredients and utensils.

The highlight is the cooking process — you might get to watch Roberto prepare dishes from scratch, which many reviews say is both educational and entertaining. He shares his expertise, often adding helpful tips and stories about the dishes he makes.

You’ll enjoy a beautifully set table, often featuring a welcome cocktail or tapas to start. The menu varies but, based on reviews, seafood dishes like sea bass, octopus, and seafood paella are popular. Many guests mention that the food is plentiful — there’s usually enough for leftovers, which is perfect for a relaxed evening or next-day snacks.

Service is professional yet warm. Roberto’s reviews mention that he’s friendly, charismatic, and detail-oriented, with a keen focus on presentation and cleanliness. Many reviewers say they felt like they were dining with friends rather than in a formal restaurant.

The Menu & Food Quality

One of the standout features here is the high quality of the ingredients. Reviewers highlight the freshness of seafood, vegetables, and meats—even mentioning that the kitchen is spotless and dishes are washed before departure.

Dishes like seafood paella, octopus, and sea bass receive special mentions for their flavor, presentation, and authenticity. The chef adapts menus to dietary needs, which adds to the appeal for those with specific preferences or restrictions.

Guests also appreciate the variety of offerings—from tapas and canapés to full seafood meals, Roberto ensures there’s something for all. Some reviews say that the meal exceeded expectations, with the food being “superb,” “delicious,” and “beautifully presented.”

The Experience’s Value for Money

For special occasions, this experience offers a level of luxury and exclusivity hard to match.

A recurring theme in reviews is the generous portions and the value of leftovers, which some say made the meal feel like two or even three meals for the price. Plus, the professional service and relaxed atmosphere create a memorable experience worth the expense.

Booking & Cancellation

Advance booking is recommended — most customers book about 23 days beforehand. The process is straightforward, with confirmation sent quickly unless booked last minute. Cancellation is free up to 24 hours before the experience, which adds flexibility if your plans change unexpectedly.

Since it’s a private service, only your group participates, ensuring privacy and personalized attention. The service is suitable for most travelers, with reviews indicating that meeting points near public transportation make logistics smooth.

What Reviewers Say

The overwhelming majority of reviews are glowing. Guests describe the experience as “five-star,” “amazing,” and “absolutely superb.” Many mention how Roberto’s friendliness, professionalism, and attention to detail made the meal special.

One review even highlights that Roberto goes beyond just cooking — helping arrange additional services like massages, which shows how dedicated he is to making your stay memorable. And the consistency of praise across reviews suggests this isn’t just an occasional good night but a reliable, top-tier experience.

This experience is ideal for those celebrating a special event — birthday dinners, family reunions, or romantic nights — where exclusivity and high-quality food matter. It’s perfect if you prefer the comfort of your own space and want a relaxed, tailored experience without the formality of a restaurant.
