What we cook for Brentwood households

Every menu is built from scratch around your household, and you approve it before every cook day.

Families

One menu the whole family eats, with simpler versions for the kids and lunches that travel to school.

Health and wellness goals

Anti-inflammatory, gluten-free or doctor-directed plans, following guidance from your doctor or dietitian. Recovery and health conditions

Weeknight dinners, cooked fresh

One Brentwood household has its chef cook dinner four nights a week, so dinner is fresh every night instead of reheated.

Dinners at home

Birthdays, holidays and dinner parties, family-style or plated, from $135 a guest. See dinner parties

One chef who learns your kitchen

Our Westside chefs already cook for Brentwood households every week, so we match you on cooking style, diet and schedule. You keep the same chef every week, with a briefed backup if they’re ever away.

We cook across Brentwood, from Brentwood Park and Brentwood Glen to Crestwood Hills and Mandeville Canyon, and in nearby Santa Monica and West LA. Gate codes, lockboxes, house managers and canyon parking are all part of a normal week. Most clients aren’t home during service.

What our Los Angeles clients say

“They have been able to adjust to our changing, and sometimes very strict, health needs while still making everything taste delicious. This service gives us so much time back in our day and our busy household really appreciates it.”

Elle B., Silver Lake★★★★★ Google review · 2026

“I tried meal prep delivery companies, I tried purchasing prepared meals from grocery stores, and tried ordering healthy options on Uber Eats. Eats by Nicole is by far the best option!”
