Booking & Reservation

Private dining experiences are requested through the website at chefvasily.com. After receiving your inquiry, Chef Vasily personally reviews the request and typically responds within 24 hours to discuss availability, menu options, and pricing.
Once the menu, guests count, and event details are confirmed, an official invoice will be issued.
To secure and reserve your event date, a 50% deposit is required. Reservations are considered confirmed only after the deposit has been received.
The remaining balance will be invoiced on the day of the event.
By clicking “Send” button you accept these Private Dining Service Policies.
Payment of the reservation deposit forms the service agreement between the client and Chef Vasily.
