30a Private Chef & Catering Services

2024 and 2023 Best of the Emerald winner badge

Going out to eat on a beach vacation is such a hassle...

First, you have to get there.

Everyone is heading to dinner at the same time, so you're in dead-stop traffic with a car full of hungry friends and family. By the time you get to the restaurant, you're fighting for a parking space with EVERYONE in town.

Long lines. Crowded restaurants.

When you finally do make it to the door, you find out there's an hour wait...or more...and NOBODY takes reservations anymore. So there you sit (or stand) with a dozen other groups, all starving, sunburnt, and irritated.

Inconsistent quality and service.

It's really not their fault. Good help is hard to find, and they're feeding hundreds of people every single night. So sometimes it's good, but other times...not so much. And you can't tell which night it is until the food is actually in front of you.

Marrow Chefs Ryan McNay, Richard McCord, and Chris Mongogna

We had the absolute best experience with these chefs.... and the food was soooooooo good. The chefs were professional and helped create a relaxed fine dining experience in our VRBO. We are all still talking about the strawberry shortcake. It was all so good!!!! :)

We've been using Marrow for years. A nice meal on 30-A can is so hit or miss these days due to the volume that these restaurants are churning out. That's why I love Marrow. I have never had a bad meal with them. Everything is seasonal. It's 10x better than the restaurants in town.

Marrow Private Chefs handled the entire catering for my recent wedding reception in Mary Esther, Florida. All of it gluten-free, all of it tree-nut free...and MAN, they knocked it completely out of the park. Highly recommend! Chef Ryan did a wonderful job on a hectic day.

We had an incredible experience with Marrow! Our private chef, Chris, came to our home in Destin, Florida, and prepared an outstanding five-course meal. Every dish was absolutely delicious, and the entire experience was top-notch.
Easily a 1000/10!!!
